A student planning a gather-
ing must request permission
from the residence hall council
executive committee at least
three days in advance. The,
council will post a notice of the
event.

After two weeks of opera-
tion, the system can be ex-
panded by the residence halls
to include impromptu gather-
ings of between tiuee and five
persons. Each residence hall
pi.Hi of Ifus type should be
submitted to the Office of the

Dean of Students for approval.
The Dean of Student's direc-
tive on open house policy is in
accordance with a decision
made by the president this
summer abolishing the previ-
ous system in which a man
may be alone with a woman in
his room during specified hours.
Under the rule established this
summer, students are forbid-
den to entertain members of
the opposite sex. This rule was
later modified to permit stu-
dents to have parties and "im-
promptu social gatherings."

University open house poli-
cies first c a m e into question
in December 1963 when a
student - faculty -administralion
committee was established to
review the rules. In March
1964, before this committee had
a chance to m a k e its report.
President S a c h a r announced
that students would keep their
doors open when entertaining i
members of the opposite sex.
The present rule was instituted]
when it was realized that the I
"open door" rule was unen-
forceable.

The council is protesting the
new "self-governance" rules on
open house hours.

The plan, developed by the
Office of the Dean of Students.
in cooperation with the Resi-
dence StaPf and the Student
Council, allows each residence
hall to decide how often and
to what extent infortnal gath-
erings of three or more people
will l)e permitted.

The hours must i?l[ witliin
the following scheduling:

Friday — 5 p.m.-l a.m.; Sat-

A student monitoring system
must be established by the
Residence Hall Council to
schedule two sludenls, as rep-
resentatives of the Council, to
remain in the dormitory dur-
ing tiie hours decided upon.
The representatives will be no-
tified f)v the hosi or hostess of
the gathering as to the location,

time of arrival and departure.
Students on duty may secure
assistance from the Residence
Counselors to force compliance
with the procedure.

The room privilege for infor-
mal social gatherings will be
withdrawn if residence hall
students allow violations of the
rules.

Residence halls may vote to

Dr. Black Named
Associate Dean of
Brandeis Faculty

Dr. Eugene C. Black, associ-
ate professor of history, has
been named associate dean of
the faculty at Brandeis Univer-
sity.

Dr Black, who has assumed
his duties, replaces Dr. I. Mil-
ton Sacks, who is on a leave of
absence to conduct research and
writing in Southeast Asia un-
der a Rockefeller Foundation
grant.

Before coming to Brandeis,
Dr. Black was a teaching fel-
low in history and literature at
Harvard. From 1948-1953 he
served in the United States Air
Force.

Dr Black's book. The Asso-
ciation: British I'lxtraparlia-
meiitary Political Organization,
1769-1793, was published by
the Harvard University Press
in 1963.

He has edited readings of
modern European intellectual
history in Posture of Europe,
1815-1940 for the Dorsey Press,
and is currently completing a
problems book on British lib-
eralism for Holt, Rinehart and
Winston.

Athletics Department Reorganized;

Foil- ►wing: the advice of the Faculty Athi^d'c Tom m it tee, the Athletic Depart-
ment has )>een reorganized to facilitate K«eater efficiency and cohesion. Major chalices
include deleg-ation of responsibility to one director, Mr. Irv Olin, who will have complete
control over varsity athletics, physical ethication and intramurals. Two new coaches
have been appointed for the coming year. They are Professor Kay Ginger as tennis
coach and Mr. John Hughes as baseball coach. The most controversial move was the

85 Students
Leave Brandeis
In 1963-196/

Eighty-five Brandeis students
left Brandeis from September,
1963 to June, 1964.

Thirty-three transferred to
other colleges. This is an in-
crease over the past, according
to figures released to the
Justice by Miss Phyllis C. Sil-
verman, Assistant to the Dean
of Students. Over the two pre-
vious years a total of forty
students transferred from
Brandeis.

The great majority of trans-
fers left Brandeis tor personal
reasons. Financial difficulties
or marriipe were dominant
reasons. Most of the transfer
students are now attending
large institutions such as state
universities.

Thirty-two students in good
standing asked to leave Bran-
deis, primarily for personal
reasons. However, many of
them told the Administrative
Committee they hoped to re-
turn to Brandeis if possible.

Twenty students were asked
to leave Brandeis because they
failed to meet academic
standards. The decisions to dis-
miss the students were usually
made in February and June
after term examinations.

track and cross-country team as i
recommended by the Faculty
Committee.

The Faculty Committee, com-
prised of Professors Ginger,
Kustin and Sommers, issued its
report during the summer after
"many months of delibera-
tion." The committee recom-
mended that the Athletic De-
partment be renamed the De-
partment of Physical Education
and Athletics and that there
be one director. The report
stated that all personnel should
primarily "be secured from the
physical education staff, there-
by minimizing the need for
part time coaches."

The decision to withdraw
from full team competition in
intercollegiate track was based
on the desire to make more
reasonable the level of com-
petition and the feasibility of
such competition. The length of
seasons in various sports, par-
ticularly basketball and base-
ball, should be reduced to an
optimum of eighteen games,
the report suggested.

There will be a meeting: of
all students interested in
joining the stuflf of the JUS-
TICE in one capacity or an-
other, tonig^ht, in the base-
ment of Mailman Hall, 7

Roe he Leaves
To Write for
Sen. Humplirey

Dr. John P. Roche, chairman
of the Department of Politics,
has temporarily left Brandeis
to go to Washington, where he
will write speeches for Vice
presidential candidate Hubert
Humphrey.

A noted author and political
expert, Dr. Roche will remain
with Humphrey until the elec-
tion, after which he will return
to his position at Brandeis. Re-
cently he taught at the Adult
Institute in the summer and
held a seminar for incoming
freshmen this fall.

Dr Roche is the national
chairman of the ADA. (Amer-
icans for Democratic Action),
the Morris Hillquit Professor
of Labor and Social Thought,
and has been a visiting profes-
sor of political science at the
University of Chicago. The
freshman seminar was based
on one of his books, The (^uest
for the Dream, concerning the
American minority's search for
equality. He is al.so the au'hor

posed a choice in menus, a
choice of dining hall and the
varying of meal contracts.
Dean Morrissey stressed that
any change is possible, pro-
vided that the dining halls do
not lose money.

The experiment is slated to
begin Saturday, Octol)er 10.
This week the council will
compile a list of all those in-
terested in the program. Meals
will consist of meat, salad, etc.
and may include a bottle of
wine. They will be served by
volunteer waiters cho.seii from
those who sign up for the pro-
gram. At the first meal, which
is to be held in Kutz, about
fifteen students will serve the
250 participants. If the pro-
gram is successful, there will
be similiar meals in other din-
ing halls every Saturday eve-
ning.

According to the tentative

schedule, students who express

interest in the program will be

asked to reserve places on a
particular night. They may ar-
rive individually or in groups
between 5:00 and SiUO the
night of the meal. Waiters will
bring platters of food to each
table as .soon as it is full.

Student Council has agreed
to pay for part of the co.st of
renting tablecloths and other
necessities. Theiefore. t h o s e
students who do not pay the
activities fee will have to pay

Grimm agreed that students
could eat breakfast and dinner
in any dining hall, provided
they notify a checker in ad-
vance. He al.so said that he
would investigate the possibil-
ity of having hamburgers or
hot dogs as an alternative hot
dish at all meals, or of having
two main dishes offered at a
meal He suggested putting cof-
fee-pots in the lounges of the
dining halls for students to use
after meals.

The issue of meal contracts
was deferred to a later meet-
ing.

Statement of Principles

The >;n»un(l rules for this semester's Justice are
rou^'hly the same as those in force last semester. UnsiKned
editorials represent the opinion of at least three-(juarters
of the editorial board. These editorials do not necessarily
represent the views of any other iH^rsons associated with

The Justice.

Si^med articles and letters represent only the (»pinions
of the writers. All letters and articles must be signed, but
the editttrs may, under extraoidinary conditions, a^^ree to
withhold a writer's name. The letters- to-the-editors column
is open to all Justice readers. We welcome articles from
regular, occasional, and almost-never coiitributors on any
subject of interest to our readers. The editors reserve lor
th( mselves the right to determine whether any article or
letter is to be printed, in whole or in })art.

There, now, doesn't that clear things up?

Dollars and Sense

The new method of collection of the Student Activities
Fee represents an unmistakaljle (opportunity for the Bran-
deis Student Union to assert its independence and prove
its vitality, in spite of the way in which the rule change
was made. An efficiently-functioning Uni(>n, collecting its
own fees an<l flaying its own bills, will win the respect of
those interested spectators in (Iryzmish who have, admit-
tedly, challenged the Union to accept what they consider
to be a burdensome ol)ligati(»n. A more (»rn'ious adxantage
is that Student Council allocations and disbursements need
no It.nger be passed ui>on by administrators or trustees. In
the past, the Student Union treasurer was recpjired to
submit bills or statements to the University administra-
tion acct.unting office, which then issued checks or reim-
bursed .o^tudcjits. All checks for $2,0(M) or more had to be
signed either by tlie Secretary (»r Treasurer of the lioard
of Trustees. This is no longer the case.

In light of this, it is clearly of extreme Inipoitance
that the Student Union collect the Activities Fee from all
undergraduate students. The budget drawn up by the
Council last Spring and accepted by the members of the
Student Union f(»r the VM]\-G') year provided each organi-
zation with a minimum allocation. All budgets submitted
were cut. In order tor student gn»ups to function effective-
ly and to cai-ry out their planned i)rograms, the funds
collected must cover last si)ring's allocations. The Student
Council distributed last week a list of activities supported
by the fee. These bear repeating here. The Yearbook, the
social program. Sunday night movies. The .Justice, STKAC,
Jii-Charlie, (;ill)ert &* Sullivan Society, as well as d(.zens
of less prominent organizati(»ns ; all count upon the Activi-
ties Fee collection for most, if not all, their financial sup-

IHjrt. „ . ,

The alternative to effective student collection and
financing of student activities is an extremely undesirable
one: the failure of the Student Union, in its task would
offer i\ reasonable alibi for an administration that wishes
to control student activity allocati(»ns and disbursements.
This is, in fact, a ]H)ssibility, and paternalistic atmos-
phere which this arrangement would encourage should be

kept in mind.

There is <»nly one logical conclusion: We urge every
student who considers student-organized and student-sup-
ervised activities a virtue and a necessary element of a
University to meet his ol)ligation by paying the Student
Activities ?>e.

A Summer of Discontent

The admini^! ration evidently took no
vacation from aulociacy and hypocrisy this
past summer.

All of us who were here last year will
remember the highly tcuied "environment
committee," theoretically iornied to con-
sider the views and suggestions of the tac-
ultv and students as re^-ards the university
envircuiment. This committee, along with
its recommendation after six m< nths oi de-
liberation to susi)end the "open door rule,"
was thoroughly ignored by the power(s;

that be.

It is now painfully obvious that the com-
mittee was allowed to exist merely in order
to pacify an aroused student body. No one
in the administration, from the president
on down, had any intentions of listening to
the recommendation of that n(»w detunct
tri-partite group. Dean Morrissey, chairman
of the committee, is to be congratulated lor
keeping a straight face througout those six
long months; the student and faculty mem-
bers undoubtedly sense a good deal more
keenly the frustration of having been to-
tally ignore<I.

The summer letter from Dean Morrissey
to the undergraduates thus serves the posi-
tive function of proving that this adminis-
tration's interest in student opinion is mere-
ly an ill-disguised pose.

Just as insidious is the implication in the
letter that the administration was d(»ing
the student body a favor by allowing the
council to collect the $:U) activities fee. This
is glaring hypocrisv. The decision, made as
it was in mid-July, rendered effective
collection of the fee at the early date re-
quired almost impossible.

The dean's letter thus stands as a monu-
ment to the ease with which smo(»th talking
and unprincipled i)eoi)le can decieve hope-
less idealists such as we students tend to be.
Rut we still have The Rule itself to C(m-
tend with. No amount of modification, such
as that outlined in last week's "C.azette,"
can make the situation tolerable.

It was one of the great advantages of
F>randeis that human relationships were
allowed to (level(»p freely. Emotions run
high here; this is as it should be am<»ng
youthful rnd energetic people. Despite the
'smallness and isolation (»f the campus, the
freedom given the students allowed for a
lemarkable amount of emoti(»nal as well as
intellectual growth.

The school's social atmosphere is now
going to be directed away from the intense
and vital personal relationships which per-
sonified it for so many years, and towards
the "big-campus," big-weekend, drinking
and cars, formals and bowling club medi-
oc-ritv of the average university.

But Brandeis has neither the facilities,
the urban location nor the ])reppy student
body of an Illinois or a Syracuse, and the re-

sult of this change in atmosphere will be
to stille considerably the cieaiive emotions
of a generally gifted group of people.

The next step will l^e to build a huge
student union building, as is seen on so
many college campuses, so that these youth-
ful energies may be directed to *' worth-
while" activities such as 'oowling, ping-pong
and surely nok-hockey. A more conservative
student body will begin to appear, and there
will be greater numbers of them.

Brandeis as a functioning and important
idea will cease to exist. The University of
Sachar, easily confused with so many other
American universities, will api)ear, lost
somewhere in the hills of Waltham, Mass.

And the summer of 1964 was the Year
One in this unfortunate metamorphosis.

Tomorrow's Protest

The Student Council protest scheduled
for tom«)rrow night at the dining halls (see
Steve Mora's "State of the Union" message
on this page) will be the first of a hopefudy
long series of weekly passive resistance
j)rojects. We urge universal participation in
the plan, which is a highly commendaole

one.

It is incumbent upon every student who
senses the oj)pressiveness not only of The
Rule, but (»f the lack of student influence
on environmental decisions, to take part in
the protest. Anyone who does not is, in
fact, ac(iuieseing to the campus situation as
it now exists.

Attend the union meeting at 5 p.m. to-
morrow. Do not attend dinner.

'Self Governance'

The nuMlification of The Rule printed in
last week's (lazette is rendered notable by
its use of the words "self governance."

The phrase is vile enough — self govern-
ment is the accepted idiom — but in this
context it is incongruous aiul incredible.

No amount of phrase turning at this
point can convince anyone that the aihiiin-
istration wi.^hes to give the students a sig-
nliicant amount of control over their own
campus environment, especially as regards
visiting h(.urs.

By "self governance" is meant here the
right to accept a decision about one's own
environment unilaterally made by someone
else. The "})! i\ ilege", as this someone else
l)uts it, to allow three ov m(.re in a room
for an "impr( mptu social gatherir.g" in no
way alleviates the indignity of the first
decree laid down last summer.

Until the right to have "improm|)tu so-
cial gatherings" between two i):_ople is re-
stored, no amount of semantics about "self-
governance" will suffice.

The Rule, with or without modifications,
is bad enough. Let's cut out the high-sound-
ing phraseology.

State of the Union

STEVEN MORA

It is my opinion that at this moment there is no chance of eliminating the
present i)arietal hours rule. That is, there is no single action or collection (»f actions by
the student body which will rid us of this abominable rule. There are two reasons for
this- first the complete lack of support for our cause among those interested in the
Brandeis Community; and second, the resolve of the administration at the very least to
keep this rule on the books. It is on this i>remise that present council policy is based.
To begin, the council has "^ '

there is, api)arently to ascertain whether (»r not api)r(»ach-
ing vehicles bear credentials sufficient to i)ermit them
access to campus. His purpose must be, therefore, to pre-
vent the entrance of certain people to campus. Now, we
can, for the moment, divide all the inhabitants of the
earth into two groups: Brandeis students and non-Bran-
deis students. If that man in the gray uniform has been
placed at the entrance to prevent Brandeis students from
entering campus, the implications are too brutal to discuss
at length. We will only note this would be the next logical
step to what is present administration policy; students
should be .seen and not heard (certainly never listened to).

Opening Day at Camp Brandeis

The Big Pleasure

By JUDY MORRIS

September 17, a lonj? awaite<! day, finally arrived. It was j?reeted with mixed
emotions — excitement, apprehension, and a bit of what is known as just plain fear.
But throu^'h the efforts of the upperclassmen on the Orientation Week Committee,
the freshmen were soon put at ease.

On bej?inninjr a new and different experience, there is nothing more appreciated
than a friendly smile and a helpful word. It is perhaps in this respect that the Orien-
tiUion Committee achieved its

l»realest success. Whenever the
freshmen were in doubt about
directions, names of buildings,
or various other problems,
there was always an upperclass-
man waiting to help. In some in-
stances this went even as far as
htlping in the selection of

and it's as good a time as any
to start forming these opinions.
One element which was of
great benefit during Orienta-
tion Week was Ihe contact be-
tween faculty and student. Un-
fortunately there was not quite
as much mingling as there

cour.«>es and in the planning of could have been, but what there

was proved extremely valuable.
The seminars were an excellent
means of introducing the fresh-
men to academic life — a gen-
tle introduction and a highly
pleasant one. The atmosphere
at these discussions aroused a
definite enthusiasm in the stu-
dents for the si'holastic side of
Brandeis life. We know that in
the very near future we shall
be exposed to a great deal of
this and are looking forward to
it.

schedules — both can be rather
confusing tasks. Even though
some of us may have been the
victims of a senior's practical
jokes, Brandeis students seem
to have welcomed us with open
arms.

The opening banquet was an
excellent means of meeting fel-
low members of the class of '68
a.<: well as an introduction to the
administration. Even the food
was great — though rumor has
it that this was merely a first
impression. But it was the in-
formal activities Which actually
made a freshman feel a part
©f campus life. In fact, these
may even be classified as "big
plea.'fure."

And here another aspect of
Orientation Week appeared be-

great contribution to our first
impression of Brandeis. The
hectic arrival of the rest of the
upperclassmen made us feel
that perhaps they didn't know
that much more than we did.
Even seniors now must get us€'d
to calling Hamilton Quad Mas-
sell.

In order to judge Orientation
Week as a success or a failure,
it is ncH?essary to examine it in
light of the purpose it was ex-
pected to serve. As a welcome
for new students it definitely
achieved its purpose. It gave us
an opportunity to acquaint our-

The freshman's week of social whirlwinds, gay brunches, titillating teas, and
perspicacious parties has gracefully de parted from our lives a week ago. Thank c;o<l.

to bear. I felt vaguely like a protagonist in Pirandello's Six Characters In Search of an

was discussed. It was the first
time that freshmen were ac-
tually exposed to opinions of
people other than students on
the subject. It was an interest-
ing afternoon and an important
part of Orientation Week.

Encounters with various peo-
ple on campus have made a

a genuine interest in helping

Under the willows we sat, and played 'til we were
hungry, so we ate and thought and played some more. New
faces and new j^eople, new rooms and new homes, new

It was a week of token inte-
gration during which brave but
futile attempts were made to
unite the faculty and student.
At a brunch (of bagels and lox
of course) one could observe
a few (very few) teachers chat-

piro A. I was rather disappoint-
ed when no psych teachers
showed up. However, in the in-
terim I met a wonderful person
(a fellow freshman) which
compensated for the lack of
professors. Perhaps this was the
point all along. I have since
heard a nasty rumor that a
psych professor actually did
show up later in the afternoon
— towards the end of the pro-
gram. But I never listen to
gossip.

Speaking of social functions,
the food at President SaChars
reception was good, but the
"how do you do's" not only
embarrassed all of us socially
stunted freshman but somehow
seemed rather pointless. The
cookout and picnic contained
more edible food than does the
dining room. Except if you
were last on line of course.
Which 1 was.

The height of atrocities (to
my thinking anyway) came
apres cookout at the "Frosh
Dance." It seems that the fresh-
men at Brandeis were so inse-
cure that they felt compelled

to get (in the literal sense of the at all as far as adjusting to the
word only) and clutch on to a demands of classroom life. I
member of the opposite sex guess one could say orientation
within the first four and one failed. But it did have its mo-
half minutes after the starting ments.

whistle One can only wonder
and shudder at this general in-
security. Unless of course, the
class is just sex starved and
indiscriminate.

There were several bright
spots in the generally dismal
display. The students seemed
impressed with the faculty
seminars. I know I was. The
panel discussion, on the topic
of in loco parentis, was sur-
prisingly well attended, lively
and viable. The faculty concert,
too, was well attended, mobbed
in fact. For the intellectuals,
and non-intellectuals alike, the
movie One Eyed Jacks pro-
vided entertainment galore —
on different levels of discern-
ment of course.

At this point in our short col-
lege careers, we freshmen have
all undergone registration
(which was sheer hell, prob-
ably unavoidable, but sheer
hell nevertheless) and the open-
ing days of classes. Many of us

Nothing changes.

Yet, in the midst of it all last
week, a drama was taking
place, a drama unknown to
most. But to eight freshmen
boys this Orientation Week was
something special and will
never be forgotten. The eight
arrived on campus and through
som( divine act of Providence
found thems<>lves in a suite in
East Quadrangle, the Park Ave-
nue of Brandeis. Being naive
freshmen, th(^y believed in mir-
acles. Thj^refore. they naturally
had grandiose visions of quit>t
studying, private parties, and
tin ir own TV.

did not believe the rumors and
laughingly established a theme

joked about pitching tents out-

the rumors were verified. But
the rumors could not be true.

They were. The resident
counselor was the first to tell
them. The dean in charge of

There are few arguments
against the idea of freshman
orientation. Only a sadist en-
joys seeing Little Lost Fresh-
men wandering around in a
daze of bewilderment. Accord-
ing to its name the function of
freshman orientation is to
"orient" freshman — geo-
graphically, socially, extra-cur-
ricularly and academically.
And probably in that order of
importance.

This year it was evident a
great deal of work and plan-
ning had been put into the
schedule for freshman orienta-
tion. In a school where the
general tone seems to be anar-
chist and anti-organization ex-

class suite? Unheard of. The

eight freshmen were not totally cept for revolutions and causes,
disillusioned yet, however, this is impressive.

They appealed to the Court of
Last Appeals, the Dtan of Stu-
dents. He told them that jus-
tice had to b(^ served, that the
sophomores d(^s(^rved the suite
more than th«y did.

I would like only to question
what our ori<nlation ori<n1erl
us to. For four ir five da.vs

pri -rl,'j'-sm< n arrividt \v(^ saw
a Biaiideis that was mostly

other freshman, orientation
committee members, buildings,
Dr. Sachar and complaints
against parietal rules.

The only inkling we got that
there would be anything else
to Brandeis came by way of a
seminar, a faculty-student dis-
cussion, and student aetivities
night.

I don't think this was the
fault of the Orientation Com-
mittee. The program was arti-
ficial — but it had to be until
a rather important part of
Brandeis came back to Bran-
deis — two-thirds of the stu-
dent body and the faculty.

Most freshmen, 1 think,
found Orientation Week slight-
ly dragging and straining. For
the Wien students, who orien-
tation was even longer, it was
worse.

Maybe, as some of us feel,
the limit to the usefulnes«« of
freshman orientation is reach-
ed after <'nr, maybe two days
— certainly not live and more.

By far the most important
event was the presentation not
of a new film, but a classic of
1930, Luis Bunuel's L'Age d'Or,
banned in France, the country
in which it was made, until af-
ter the war and never before
seen in America. Like Uii
Chien Andalou, its predecessor
of two years, L'Age d'Or is a
surrealist work; however, it is
in this film that all the con-
cerns and images of Bunuel's
later works tind their most con-
crete and direct expression. A
woman pining for her absent
lover strokes her fingers in un-
mistakable motions of mastur-
bation; later on, waiting for
him in a garden, she soothes
herself by sucking the toe of a
statue. A blind man is vicious-
ly kicked down in the street
and a society hostess is slapped
down in the middle of her own
gathering. In one of the most
audacious strokes of cinema,
the survivors of an orgy emerge
from a castle and the leader
turns out to be none other than
Jesus Christ. Few or possibly
no films since, excepting Ken-
neth Anger's underground mas-
terpiece Scorpio Rising, have
been so boldly anti-clerical and
anti-social. Yet Bunuel's vision
is really neither sick nor per-
verse; his depiction of the ugly
and the false is made in recog-
nition of the higher forces of
love which they obstruct.
Throughout B u n u e I's work
there recur odd fleeting mo-
ments of peace and beauty
among the horror and bestiality
of man he so vividly depicts, as
in the end of Archibaldo de la
Cruz, when the hero saves an
insect from death. In L'Age
d'Or there is a love scene in a
garden, bumbling and pathetic,
yet strangely moving in its hu-
manne.ss. In spite of all its
animal savagery. L'Age d'Or is
a very human film, more so
than most. Unfortunately, as
the recent seizure of Flaming
Creatures indicates. American
audiences, or wlioever ropre-
senis them, are not mature
enough to accept its humanity.
It will probably not be shown
again here for some time.

Bunuel was al^o represented
by 'n.s latest film, Diary of a
C^hamberniaid sla'ring Jeanne
Moreau, which happily has
been bought for distribution
here. Another director to
wiiom the festival paid a two-
film tribute is Jean-Luc Godard
whose first and fourth films al-
ready released, the fast and
penetrating Breathless and th.e
somber but very moving Vivre
Sa Vie have been enough to
establish him as one of the few
geniuses with a true under-
standing and love for the medi-
um he works in. Of his five
still uiireloased films, the festi-
val screened his third, line

has achieved what few other
film-makers have dared and in
succeeding has brought his
career a very important step
forward.

Using the mobile equipment of
direct cinema (or cinema-

about the actors to catch the

monotonous and constant

reeks of physicality and hits
savagely at the audience. The

Just as Kierkegaard suggi
that Don Juan's tragedy is that
he desires all women, and
therefore any woman.

This is the fiber of pessimism
around which Bergman con-
structs Wild Strawberries,
and which sets the tone of his
films. "The Silence" is an un-
equivocal statement of this in
which humanity is reduced to
animalism and the mere possi-
bility of human relationships
is denied. In The Devil's
Wanton the theme is clearly
stated: that life is in fact hell.
Yet, as in the end of The Vir-
gin Spring so in the end of
Wild Strawberries there is an
ambiguous statement of opti-
mism.

The cinematic technique used
to end Wild Strawberries is
similar to that used to end
"Four Hundred Blows," al-
though Truffaut's photographic

no statement, the interpreta-
tion must always omit some-
thing, which is the opposite in-
terpretation.

The ending of both films
could at one time aflirm or con-
tradict the thematic develop-
ment of the film Four Hun-
dred Blows is throughout as
optimistic as the sparkle of
Truflaut's style. And yet. when
the boy reaches the sea. is he
trapped?

Bergman is not averse to phi-
losophical discussions among
his characters, which are ob-
vious statements of his theme
(and it is the absence of just
this sort of statement that
makes TrulVat the greater cine-
matist. but in the end of Wild
Strawberries, because of its
uniquely visual nature, he cre-
ates an ambiguity which sug-
gests the antithesis of his whole
thematic line.

The Professor looks nostal-
gically across a lake at a scene
from his boyhood. His lined
face, never capable of sincere
emotion, fills the screen. It is
the face of an intellectual who

if not the haunting other-
worldliness evoked in Ugetsu.
However, the most striking as-
pect of The Taira Clan is the
color, bright and magnificent
in some scenes, startlingly
subtle and subdued in others,
always tasteful and expressive.
It is al.so worth remarking that
the Japanese, or at least some
of them, are here represented
as being a good deal more noble
and worthy than in a good
many of the recent films from
that country.

If L'Age d'Or marked an im-
portant step backward. The
Brig was the most important

filmed play.

Other films of varying qual-
ity were shown, coming from
Russia, Canada. Italy, Poland,
Sweden and India. Happily, as
with last year, the films evoked
healthy sounding reactions of
both disapproval and approval
from audiences which thereby
indicated that they did at least
care what they were seeing. It
should be hoped that many of
these films will continue to
evoke such a response once
they are in general release,
without the protecting frame-
work of "cultural event" sur-
rounding.

ate with the fluid continuity of
Bergman's style. The ambigu-
ity of ending in both films
comes, on one level, simply
from the absence of any verbal
statement — for a smiling face
does not preclude tragedy. But
in a deeper sense it comes from
the absolute immediacy of this
sort of expression of human
emotion. A face reveals all and
nothing — it reveals only what
it conceals, and what it con-
ceals is just what the viewer
wants it to. But since there is

Grossman: Brandeis Legend

Now poetry is for the old.

Sandra Sherman

The satiric vacancy of Kliut — having? lo.st

its

ap-
peal to youth and taken the poets with it — has passed to the mature, the loved and lost
a!id ready a^ain. It is, perhaps, this travelling pessimism that is .so characteristic of
New F>randeis and of society at large.

Hack in the twenties, when poets influenced Youth's .self-imajre, they presented
the enormous [)ossibililies of love with a deep pessimism over its po.ssihle outcnme. To

know and to love were simul- — —

can — and so the liberal uni- poems soon to appear as The

reflection. Thesky becomes
fuzzy white, blurring into the
whiteness of the professor's
hair. The film ends.

It is ambiguous, but it is an
ambiguity that does not exclude
optimism. The strawberries
have all gone, but this does not
mean hope is gone It is gone
for the professor, for he is look-
ing at the past and must ac-
knowledge the limitations of
old age; he cannot change his
relationship to his housekeeper,
nor can he make love to his
daughter-in-law But he is al.so
looking at the future, for the
clock has no hands So might
he be looking for his .son and
daughter-in-law ami their chil-
dren. They still can change for
they are not yet fettered by the
biological realities of old age,
nor its psychological contingen-
cies. And even as the automo-
bile ride (tho archetypal jour-
ney of convi'rsion) has changed
the professor in a certain way,
so might it work a change U\
his progenitors, tiril tlu-y mitiht

tral heritat*e of loneliness and

taneous, and if there was a
pessimism over what there was
to know, it was a pessimism
concerned with Epistemological
Eros. But since the fifties.
Youth has moved away from
this into high and dangerous
moral endeavors — e.g. Missis-
sippi '64 — which have given
them outcomes worth the dig-
nity of their love. And it is this
new purposiveness that Dr.
Grossman invokes when he

on this campus.

Pessimism

former pessimism of
youth, then, is now the present
lack of faith held by its elders,
and Dr. Grossman sees this un-
dermining the idea of a lil^eral
university. A liberal university,
he feels, presumes the educabi-
which succeeds as astonishing- hty and moral autonomy of its

ly as the other failed.

Band of Outsiders appears
most intriguing when viewed
in perspective of his earlier
works. Whereas Godard's other
characters live in the tension
between their own absoluteness
and the uncomprehension of
the world a b o u t tiiem, the

actions as presuming that there
can be no successful instruction
except coercion, and that far
from being morally compotant

It comes as a paradox: just

freedom are fulfilled, most jo.y-
ously wJKMi they do a dance to-
gether in a cafe asserting the
magnificence of their individu-

unable to grasp an emergent
present, and put it to relevant
use. Dr Grossman feels they
lack tlic necessary force to en-
gage in extra-university poli-

versity ceases.

Anarchy

Dr. Grossman stresses the
fact that liberalism does not
imply sexual anarchy; he
eschews anarchy on all fronts,
sees violent demonstration by
students or their faculty sym-
pathizers as leading nowhere.
By his own admission, he is an
agent of two camps, and to re-
tain his effectiveness in influ-
encing the administration he
must find some niche, some
unique position, where he can
do the most good. Riding off in
all directions at once is not to
his advantage as regards his
being to our advantage. He ad-
vises the same considered mo-
deration to students — but as to
basic principle, he said "I will
come out as strongly as you
like This is intolerably restric-
tive."

There has never been any
doubt that Allen Gro.ssman is
outspoken. Indeed, he has ob-
served it himself — "My lang-
uage is . . . ahem . . . inimit-
able." Included in his current
activities is a book about Hart
Crane, a writer prominent in
the entre-deux-guerres period.
When asked why Crane, he
thought a moment, quipped "He
died the year I was born
(1?):32); perhaps I am his rein-
carnatiup." Whether we shall

Baccalaureate Address

EDITOR'S NOTE: Lewis Serbin, President o/ the Brandeis Class o/ 1964, delivered an
address duriny Baccalaureate eeremonies last June. Mr. Serbin noin attends Stanjord Univer-
sity, Graduate Scfiool oj Business Administration. The text oj his address follows.

It is commonplace for Seniors speakinj]: at Commencement to speak publicly of
the inner experience which was theirs and their classmates while at college. 1 will not
do this since four years of intense and mostly intangible experiences can not be pro-
perly captured in three minutes of oratorical declamation. The attempt, in itself, would
detract from the experience's ])rivate quality and dignified uniqueness. Instead, 1 re-
spect the private thoughts of my fellow students by declining to make them public,
and therefore, common.

The enormous debt we owe
to the faculty, however, must
be mentioned. Our strongly

Vaieilictary Address

By RISHON M. BIALER

EDITOR'S NOTE Rishon Bialer. now a first-year student at Harvard Medical School, deliv-
ered tfie valedictory address duriny last year's Commencement Exercises. Die text oj }iis
address follows.

The ideal university functions to perpetuate the knowledge and ideals of the
society which created it, and at the same time to act as a contemporary critic of that
same society. It consists of a small, integrated community of scholars an<l students
who, through their intellectual and social intercourse, couched in an atmosphere (►f
absolute free(l<>m of ex])ression, achieve that desired end. There is a definite separation
between the university and the society at large, for the objectivity of the educator or
critic depends upon his free- —

doni from external infUjences.
And .society acknowledges and
supports this crucial separation,
because it realizes the need for
the training of youth in the
concepts of freedom and ihe
search for truth as well as the
need for an honest analysis
ami criticism of their autono-
mous existence. There is no
need for an independent and
sovereign executive sector;
the responsibility for formulat-
ing university policy, he it edu-
cational, social, moral or busi-
ness policy, lies with the fac-
ulty and to a lcs.scr extent with
the students.

IHopia

This is Utopia In our Ameri-
can society the entire develop-
ment of the university has al-
ways been characterized by a
basically diflerent structural
pattern: the power to formu-
late policy lies not with the
aforementioned essential ele-
ments of the univers'iy, but
within a new. seemingly anom-
alous group, labeled in general
terms "the administration." One
result of this drastic alteration
from the ideal is clear. The
projected images and impres-
sions of university existence
are no longer those of the in-
tellectual and the scholar, for
the professor in his muted role
is now as much of an employee
as an educator; and they are no
longer those of the intellectual
community in general, for with
the increased complexity and
iDureaucratization of the ad-
ministrative .sector, the univer-
sity takes on many character-
istics of a business venture.
Consequently, the external
world no longer oHers its .sup-
port from afar, respecting the
ideals of the university for
wliat they are; they attempt to
intluence university policy as
they would any smart business
investment. And the roles have
been reversed: society now in-
cessantly criticizes the u n i -
versity.

The acquisition of power ob-
viously implies the acquisition
i»f responsibility. And the re-
sponsibility for tho re-educa-
tion of society with the proper
conception of the university
lies with the administrative
sector. The mechanism is clear:
public bodies or private per-
sons who are interested in sup-
porting the university must be
asked to do so not on the prom-
ise that it will create a popula-
tion in their image, but merely
on the assurance that it will do
its best to carry on its intensive
training of students capable of
independent thought and ob-
jective criticism. Uncompromis-
ing dedication to the functions
of the ideal university is in
order.

Insidr and (>ii(

Rut one cannot prolet t the
university from external influ-
ences and then restrict univer-
sity freedom from within. Our
rntiri^ .social and political struc-
ture is ba.sed on the concept of
fit'cdom; and it is onl> Ihrough
the cultivation of this idealized

freedom in our universities that
we can hope to avoid the de-
generacy of that system. The
administration cannot be a
benevolent dictatorship exer-
cising arbitrary control in a
Kwame Nkrumah fashion. Real-
istically, they possess the ulti-
mate power, but this power
must be shared with the com-
munity. Students and faculty
must be given equal represen-
tation in the determination of
the general policies of the uni-
versity for only in this way can
their opinion be meaningful
and effective. And certain basic
policies must be firmly estab-
lished, guaranteed, and never
violated.

There must be a guarantee
of unequivocal academic free-
dom for faculty and students;
no opinion, no verbal exposi-
tion can be grounds for dismis-
sal from the university. There
can be no curbing of student
expression whether in the form
of a student newspaper, the
.students' right to invite any
lecturer he pleases to univer-
sity grounds, or the students'
right to peacefully protest any
arbitrary university decision.
For in a democratic society
"controversy is an end in it-
self; a university that is not
controversial is not a univer-
sity."

Self -Government

There must be a guarantee
that no social stratification of
the community will be allowed
whether in the form of frater-
nities, recruiting of athletes, or
any other cla.ss structure.

There must be a restriction
of excessive university growth.
For not only will it subordinate
the faculty and students to a
growing power bureaucracy,
but it will create an imperson-
ality in the academic program,
an increasing lack of opportun-
ity for the students to learn

through per.sonal relationships, faculty surely act as critics of

to identify themselves with the
values and attitudes of their
teachers, which are, on the
whole, those of the thoughtful
scholar and liberal thinker.

And most important, the stu-
dents must be allowed com-

our society as witnessed by the
peace marches, sit-in.<^, etc.; the
opportunities for individual
growth and maturity not
stunted and channelled by pre-
established social and educa-
tional stratification are evident.

plete self-government not only But on the other hand, ]n com
in the trivial areas of clubs, in- parison with the ideal, the seri-

tramurals, etc., but in student
housing, student discipline,
problems of social relations,
etc. The administration must
protect the university from the
external dominance of a con-
servative morality. For moral
values are not fixed principles
and codes of conduct known
only to philosophers, spiritual
leaders, and educators and
which they hand out to the stu-
dents who are presumed not to
have them. On the contrary,

ous flaws in the university
structure and function are also
painfully evident.

Community

The Brandeis community in-
.spires a good many of its mem-
bers to dedicate themselves to
the concept of the ideal univer-
sity and its eventual realization
on this campus. Hopefully they
will be given the freedom and
breadth of expression to fulfill
that sincere and crucial vision.

iad of other services is clearly
evident. The moral fiber of the
student body is sound and his
private student-student inter- .

actions in no way reflect ad- /

versely upon that morality. The /

great majority of students
know their obligations, act re-
sponsibly, and need merely the
encouragement to seek their
individuality and achieve inde-
pendence. There is no commit-
ment to doctrines taught in a
didactic manner by restriction
of intellectual and" social free-
dom.

To Be Specific

The above analysis of the
ideal university and the proper
interrelationships of its compo-
nent parts is general in its
scope. However, it was prompt-
ed by a profound concern for
the future devolpment of Bran-
deis, and a deep affection for
the community as it exists, or
to be more exact, its potentiali-
ties. The potential cannot be
hidden: the faculty is of the
highest quality and for the most
part interested in university
life; the educative opportuni-
ties in the liberal arts in gen-
eral or opportunities for indi-
vidual research in any particu-
lar field of study are excellent;
the student body is small and
governed by a pa.ssionately
dedicated and talented, if not
always effective, group of stu-
dents; the student body and

well as our deep love for this
ideal, have, in large part, been
defined and illuminated by our
intellectual mentors. Their in-
frequent successes as well as
failures in protecting the cher-
ished motto "Truth Even Unto
Its Innermost Parts" from
those, who by their actions
make a mockery of it, have
forcefully shown us the risks
involved and the boldness re-
quired in any undertaking
which strives for moral right
and respect for the individual.
We shall profit much from
the.se perceptions, made possi-
ble by their actions.

A Voice

Indeed, it is these percep-
tions, defining what one loves
and what one hates, that
prompt the "angry young man"
to stalk the stage as he does
each year, expressing his in-
dignation and moral disgust
with the use of authority by
the university administration,
such expression is,
justified, I shall

not express it because the mes-
sage of the angry young man
means too much to me for it
not to be heard — and tragical-
ly enough, the voice of the
angry young man is never real-
ly heard. His message is one
quickly labeled "youthful ide-
alism," "spring hi-jinks." and
is quickly left at that by a so-
ciety which does not really
wish to hear or be bothered
with principles they had wi.»jhed
to uphold or with problems
they had failed to solve — the
listening makes too real their
inadequacies. Yet, paradoxical-
ly, society pins all it • hopes on
its youth to do that which it
did not. but in the end, the de-
fenses of the old smother, if
not kill, the growth of the new.

Futility

Consequently, it often seems
futile to ask another generation
to li.sten and try to understand
our frustration and indignation
which arises when the "estab-

Socialism in Sweden:
Progress and Problems

By JUDY SCHINE

Sweden — a modern nation with a powerfid sense of
the past, a nation of bustling cities and 18th-century vil-
lages, nation of Strindberg and Bergman, and, i)erhaps
most strikingly, nation of socialism. Nowhere is socialism
more highly developed than in Sweden. Its effects are
easily seen in the daily lives of the people, and, if one
cares to engage in the danger

feel that conventional profes-
sional politics are inadequate
to meet the needs of the dis-
trict and the nation. But where-
as Molesworth believes that the
country should follow the gen-
tleman from Arizona, Day
charts a new path.
Advocates Concrete Program
Day's platform promises "a
decent society at home" and
"a lasting and meaningful
peace" abroad. Unlike the
vague promises of the Demo-
cratic party platform, Day's
platform is a listing of con-
crete if rather radical pro-
posals. They range from a $2.00
minimum wage and massive
go\ernment supported medical
care to federal aid for the arts
and a stepped up war on pov-
erty. He also demands revision
of Congressional rules, aboli-
tion of the UnAmerican Acitvi-
ties Committee, abolition of

and McCarran Acts, various
sorts of consumer protection
laws, various sorts of tax re-
forms including $2,000 person-

ressive rates, elimination of

Day, an Independent, is also
challenging the traditional two

Day's program treats these

A Study of Man

By SUE DIAMONDSTONE

This was a real man in a real town, and it hapjiened
just this way. I was w^alking down a street in Oakland on
a lovely, sunny day doing my bit for my Country and my
Fellow^Alan, but mostly (to be honest to you and my.sell)
out of my own guilt. It was a poor place: p(W)r houses, poor
streets, poor people. The houses were old, mostly in white
board though some had been .^^^^^^ ^hey were politTand

their blank faces remained
closed to us, the intruders. Per-
haps the woman who closed the
door didn't trust our white mo-
tives even though we wore
CORE pins. Perhaps she feared
to have her name on some dan-

nd s w that o^ly Hiought we were trying to fill
and say tnai oniy _^ blacklist. Perhaps she even

knew we wanted to help but
she feared to be associated with
agitators.

At one place there were five
or six men sitting under a tree
on orange crates and broken
(.1(1 stools, sipping beer and
talking. They were dressed in
clothes that were \ cry worn
and old. When we told them
why we had come tluy un(i»>r-

wouldn't give him a chance to

understood and we registered

ple who had come out of the

nia these places are called
slums. Some people in some
places refer to them as lower

ter voters in order to defeat an
amendment to the state fonsti-
tution which would nullify all
and any lair housing legisla-
tion, past and future. We were
also seeking Johnson support-
ers, and, incidentally, to uplift
these people by giving them
their rightful power as citizens.

"We Registered"

We had already been out in
the morning. Sometimes peo-
ple would open a door and
quickly reply, nope, nope, we
registered, everyone here reg-

has served for the past three
years as executive director of
the St. Mark's Social Center, a
settlement house in Roxbury,
the Negro slum section of Bos-
ton. He is CO chairman of the
Massachusetts Freedom Move-
ment which sponsored the
school boycott in Boston last
year.

He was born on Christmas
Day (Noel Day) 1933 in Har-
lem. Son of a New York school
teacher. Day went through the
city schools and entered Dart-
mouth College at the age of 15.
After graduating in 1953 with
a degree in psychology. Day
studied at the City College of
New York. From 1955 to 1958
Day taught in the Harlem pub-
lic schools and served as a gang
worker. From 1958 to 1961
Noel was Program Director of
the United Community Center
in Brooklyn, an inter-racial
agency founded by Jewish
women. He then came to Bos-
ton and St. Mark's. He is very
active in a wide variety of civil
rights and liberal political or-
ganizations in Boston.

Organization Plus

Day's second big asset is his
organization. Made up of young
college students and grad'iates
(most of them white), the stati
makes up for in zeal what it
lacks in experience. In spite of
a tendency toward Bohemian-
ism, the staff is intelligent,
articulate, and dedicated.

The campaign is being con-
ducted in as professional a
manner as possible, complete
with posters, leaflets, and nu-
merous street meetings. During
street meetings, Noel Day,
armed with leaflets, a .sound
truck, a chorus of freedom
singers, and a strong voice, can
canvass three or four blocks of
voters during an evening. Day
also expects to open "action
centers" at strategic locations
around Boston. These will en-
able citizens to bring their
grievances 1o liii^ ;itt(ntion of
candidate Day. Thus far in the
campaign, Day's forces have
cooperated with but have
worked seperate from the nu-
merous Negro civil rights
groups in Boston.

Fund raising for the cam-
paign is handled by Rev. James
Br(>(^den. Breeden is Canon to
the Episcopal Bishop of Massa-
chusetts for interracial and in-
terreligious affairs. He is also
Day's co-chaiiman (m the Mas-

ous game of generalizing about
a nation of people, in the char-
acter of the Swede.

The physical aspects of so-
cialism are clear and praise-
worthy. Sweden has virtually
no slums, no run-down neigh-
borhoods in any of its cities.
The government finances at
least part of most housing
plans, and must approve any
architectural proposals. In
many cases, the town board in
charge of building gives auto-
matic approval to the work of
a particular architect, thus sac-
rificing variety in the town
planning, and creating a mono-
tonous city. A second problem
concerned with housing is that
it is insufficient for the popula-
tion. Young couples often wait
five years for an apartment of
their own .and must live with
in-laws in the interim. Parents
have been known to register
their children at birth lor the
home they will need in twenty
years The housing shortage is
slowly disappearing, and apart-
ments built today are extreme-
ly efficient.

Free Education

From birth to death, the
government cares for its peo-
ple. Every expectant mother,
married or not, receives an
allowance from the state for
her child. If she works, and
over half the women do, she
can leave the child in a nursery
school for the day. Education is
completely free up to the uni-
versity level, at which point
there is a nominal fee, waived
for those students who are un-

age people who are not serious
about tiieir work from becom-
ing students.

The health care program is
probably the best in the world,
resulting in one of the he^dth-
iest nations. Ask a Swede what
he thinks of the program, and
he will undoubtedly say that
it works so well he has never
thought about it. This is true —
the state has permeated every
level of life, to such a degree
that it is no longer an issue to
be discussed. Every person is
guarantee'd housing, education,
and mtdical care and has no
need to be worried about the
mechanics of living.

Swedish Diligence

Because he never has to be
concerned with obtaining any
of the necessities of life, the
Swedish character is Cfuite dif-
ferent from our own. While
America still prides itself on
frontier individualism and Ho-
ratio Alger stories, Sweden
does not elevate ambition to
such a high plane. Her people
need not work as hard as tiiey
do, but they do work, and are
highly competitive within their
own system It is a paradox, and
a difficult one, that a people
should strive so diligently when
it is largely unnecessary. Per-
haps an an.swer is that a man's
dignity and self-respect rest
partially in his being capable
of caring for himself and liis
family through his own endea-
vors. The Swedish family is a
tight-knit and proud unit, and
in many families many mem-
bers work so that they can

able to meet it. Although Swed- travel in Europe and the United

WORLD — where human peo-
ple are said to've done most of
their hanging around for a
long, long time now. Myself,
for one; and this article is a
pers >nal rani; I cannot be re-
ge arched.

Isolation Bit

There's this community busi-
ness Community can be, and is,
very precious to a man (man/
woman: human man), because
of the irreduceable fact of liis
isolation. There is isolation in
the desert, moimtains, cities;
crying separation can imma-
teriaiizo in any loving, any
making. Many of you suspect
that the university harbors a
degradation of companionship
wois'' than almost any other
conunon kind; and I think it is
so. 1 here's more honesty
among junkies than here. The
assembly of each new genera-
tion is a great good thing; but
the fact is, a university is an
assembly not conceived or
created by its students. It is a
receptacle — it is not YOURS
(ours), and everybody knows
it Which is why it's such an
unsatisfactory assembly, uni-
versally if inarticulately resent-
ed At the beginning, every-
body is thrown in with a bunch
of everybodyelse — and the big
Extra Added Attraction to wit,
a fuzzy but very sticky set of
mores and morals. It's even
true, maybe, that there is a
range of choice, but still no feel
of freiMiom in it. I guess every-
body has learned by now, for
good and all, that it is not pos-
sible to influence either the
selection of students or the
gooey morality by being a good
(if wayward) little boy or girl.
In practice, it all means the
sugarcoated truculence emanat-
ing from everybody. Think of
the sn^ell around a "burnt
nia'cfi skating in a urinal" —
it means what I mean.

Alonlines.s

I think it's a sin, or a perver-
sion, or whatever, to screw up
living this way. As a patent
nic'dicine I offer the idea of
voluntary withdrawal — as
thorouglily as you can or care
to practice it, from leaving
school down to protendirig you
like to be alone for one hour
eve.-y other week. The idea is,
to *t tempt real personal life at
leasf a little, rather than to
nestle in each other's disaffec-
tions; to break down rather
tliMi cover up. unspring the

torque of adjustment, be bad
and even sullen young'uns, but
outright about it. Personally, I
find that I'm either in or out;
but I suppose we can't have the
whole school become one large
dropout (think of it! sort of a
gigantic turd, in the public
eye), and every litter bit helps.

Real-world Thinking

And on the lighter side: some
medieval saint or other (I think
it's in the Soc Sci text) said
that the purpose of marriage
(sic) is to produce virgins. I
think that's an interesting
point of view. But look at it
this way, this place doesn't
have a thing up on jail as far
as sex goes. Freshmen should
read Our Lady of the Flowers.
As a further instance of college
vs. real-world thinking, if you
want to protest, don't picket.
Have babies. For several years
you can proudly point to the
fact that you have produced a
virgin

On the subject of hip. for any
who are interested — college
hip is nowhere, go off and make
it somewheres else where you
can find your own bag, it's all
the Man's bag here.

Beinj^ Alive

Coming back here is being
leery about it — it almost
means the same thing; every-
body who's been gone seems
to feel that way. I can say it's
a Godawful beautiful country,
and a good one in its own way;
there '.s lives undreamt of in any
philosophies, all worth the
looking at. I think that any-
body who's thinking of leaving
should talk to someone who's
been gone, if only for encou-
ragement. Being alive is at first
just plain being wild and
woolly, mad bad sad and had;
spending a certain time crazy
loopy out the window and into
the dark, standing on moun-
tainsides yowling at the moon.
The rest comes after.

The Student Board of Review, the judicial branch of student government, is
concerned with protecting Brandeis students. It neither searches for violators of regu-
lations nor initiates charges against individuals, but rather insures that no charge is
tantamount to conviction, that no accusation is followed by immediate disciplinary
action. The Board of Review guarantees any defendant a trial by a jury of his fellow
students, where rules of evidence and standards of proof, in accord with enlightened

principles of jurisprudence, are ' ~'. '. ~, Z 7~. ' ~ ~

the burden of interpreting uni-

Board's Powers

The Brandeis administration
has a substantial interest in en-
couraging the Student Board of
Review to handle problems of
university discipline. Student
self-government, unlike admin-
istrative adjudication, promotes
responsibility, initiative, and
trust. The administration has
recognized the importance of
the Student Board of Review
in past years and frequently
has been willing to turn over
to it practically every type of
case involving discipline at
Brandeis. The Board, since its
inception about eight years ago,
has reached decisions in cases
involving stealing (including
theft from an off campus store),
possession of stolen property,
use of a false credit card num-
ber, violation of the "Open
Door Policy" (in force until
1958), violation of open hous^
hours (including girl in boy's
room on non-open house night),
and violations of driving and
parking regulations, dining hall
regulations and library regula-
tions — to cite only some.

In Europe students are re- _^—

spected members of the society
who are Ira.iitionally the first
to propose and work out re-
forms in the community. They
wt)rk at the fiighcst intellectual
centers of tiieir country and
are regarded us the elite.

Indi'pondence

The main purpose of a Scan-
dinavian university is to teach
the students how to work indi-
vidually. When you enter the
university, you are not told
what to do; you have to find it
out for yourself. The only thing
you do know is that in the
course of your stay you must
pass .some exams to obtain your
degree, and you may use as
many years as you want to do
so. Your life is your own prob-
lem, and you have to deal with
it yourself. The students know
that the pr<»ressors give lectures
and seminars in their field, but
it is their ta.sk to attend those
seminars and lectures; they
know that ''-so prolrss-rs vviil
correct work for them if they

want to write something, but
they will never be assigned
anything specifically.

Social Freedom

A similar attitude is ex-
pressed toward the student's
social life. He is an adult in a
society of individuals. His life
is his own responsibility. The
university would not dare to
put any restrictions upon this
aspect of student life. Its only
responsibility is to exist as a
center of higher education

Europe a student organization
is an important and integral
part of the society. For in-
stance, the Norwegian Students'
Association was one of the first
organizations to start active re-
sistance against the Germans
during the war. The students
were in the first line in all bat-
tles against the occupants.
These organizations take an ac-
tive part in the administration
of the university. The students
themselves run all the dormi-
tories, all the dining halls and

^"!^f'-j"irv^.ji ^^wcua-e ^.;wst^nrr

not really a university. I think
a more fitting term would be
"nursiversity," whose main
purpose is to shelter American
youth from reality. It is an ex-
tension of the high school.
When European students enter
a university, they enter the
adult world in the form of an

university. Furthermore, they
take active part in the forma-
tion of plans for new courses
and programs.

Fee Collection

There are several other mat-
ters which I will discuss brief-
ly. The student activities fee
for the first time is being col-
lected by the student body. It
is my belief that this adminis-
trative decision, coming partic-
ularly at the time that it did,
was a purposeful attempt to de- bettering,

fclroy student government at
Brandeis. When the administra-
tion told me of the decision, I
completely opposed it. Today,
however, it appears we are well
on our way to collecting 90-
100% of the funds. 1 hope that
those of you who have not as
yet paid will support and
Ftrengthen your own voice and
that of student government by
paying as soon as possible.

As you can see on another
page, the council, with the co-
operation of the administration,
has done an outstanding job of
altering the dining hall situa-
tion with the possibility of fur-
ther improvement to come.

Hopefully, if all goes well,
iite council will shortly be in
a position to found student
committees for the purpose of
making recommendations for
the proposed student union.

The council bulletin will re-
sume publication early next
month and will expand its
mailings to alumni.

The council is now receiving
the advice of two alumni, an
accountant and a lawyer, as
the result of our changed eco-
nomic position.

to explain the generous dorm
money program and to explain
ways of facilitating expendi-
ture of this money and of corn-
bining it with other dormi-
tories or quadranj^'les. I hope
that you will all take the elec-
tions of dorm officers seriously
this year. Their position in
handling dorm funds and in
helping to regulate the parietal
hours rule makes their posi-
tion extremely important. In
addition, the council has em-
barked on a program of experi-
mentation to develop new ways
of paying for social programs
on this campus. This Sunday,
Peter. Paul, and Mary will ap-
pear in concert at Kutz Hall,
whose seating capacity has
been expanded to 1200 for this
performance. Methods of ob-
taining admission cards will be
e>plained at tonight's dorm
meetings. In December, the
service bureau will present
Theloneous Monk; and if these
programs are successful, two
©r three other events of this
sort, including a truly f'^t-iting
creative arts week and folk
festival, will take place second
semej^ler. 1 hope that the en-
tire Brandeis community will
benelit from tlie enriched social
program which we are attempt-
ing to create.

Having outlined our pro^^ram
for this year and it is the
hugest task ever undertaken by
the Brandeis student council —
I hope we shall be al)le to count
on yuur support and coopera-
tion.

Mr. Weisberg, when asked to
comment on his new post, was
heard to bellow, "The Justice
intends to continue and to fur-
ther its reputation as the most
radical and irresponsible
mouthpiece for student griev-
ances. We intend to make new
enemies in high places and in
low in our consistent efforts to
re-form Brandeis in our own in-
imitable image. Before we stop,
we intend to ingest the Gazette,
the Crimson and the New York
Times."

Martin Fassler, also '65 and
also bitter added, "I can't say
that I'm overwhelmingly ex-
cited about the prospect of
sharing the editorship with Mr.
Weisberg. In fact, when I first
heard of his ascension to the
throne, I considered joining the
Gazette as a copy boy, but was
quickly dissuaded when Weis-
berg pointed out to me the dis-
advantages of working for a
newspaper that doesn't have a
news section. To summarize,
the Justice will be better than
ever this year."

In line with this policy of
or should we say

Koff, violinist and "announcer," and Mr. Joel Speigelman, harpsichordist, presented a
program of Baroque music which, in its "limited" sense was quite varied,
program began

The program began with a
Corelli violin sonata. Corelli
was a contemporary of Bach,
and is stylistically very simi-
lar to Bach. Second on the pro-
gram was a Mondoville harpsi-
chord sonata with violin ac-
companiment. As Mr. Koff ex-
plained to the audience, this
more-or-less unusual arrange-
ment (the domination of the
harpischord over the violin)
was in certain respects a sym-
bol of the piano's later domi-
nation as an important instru-
ment, a solo instrument. The
sonata was composed in 1790
in three movements; Allegro,
Aria, and Presto. It was one of
the most interesting numbers
of the evening, both in the com-
position itself and in the per-
formance. "To get revenge," as
Mr. Koff explained, he per-
formed Bach's first violin so-
nata, a solo work. He analyzed

be played unaccompanied, a
harpsichord accompaniment is
represented by structure with-
in the work-specifically in cer-
tain chord passages. The work
is composed of a Fugue, a Si-
cilian, and a presto. Revenge
then continued. Mr. Speigel-
man proceded to perform sev-
eral solo works. The first of
those was an anonymous six-
teenth century work, entitled
Barafostus' Dream. It was a
melodious and charming piece,
not at all what one would ex-
pect a sixteenth century work
to be. Next, he performed a
series of six variations, called
"Mein Junges Leben Hat Ein

freshmen. Mr

A Satire for Our Leadersliip

By JOHN MARCOLIS

Enough's enough! For more than five years, a tiny element within the student
has been leading us to Mieve that they are infallible. Is it po.s.sible that the

**student leadership" has never erred? Are they never
is on their side, but how long can we flounder

wrong? Oh yes, we know, God perform. It was

Most of us would surely agree that we have aim
but not the ".student leadership," which has never

in failure while our opponents flourish? experience to hear
nost no progress towards our real goals, Composers perform
really l(K)ke<l at itself critically

with two Scarlatti Sonrtas —
C minor and the D major. The
final number on the program
was a Mozart Sonata, original-
ly written for piano with vio-
lin acompaniment. The sonata,
K379, was in two movements.
The first, adagio and allegro,
and the second, a theme and
variations followed by andante
cantabile.

There need be no question
about the quality of the per-
formance. Both Mr. Koff and
Mr. Spiegelman are undoubted
ly first rate performers. Mr.
Koff plays the violin with a
.sturdy yet warm approach. His
technique is impeccable, and
his style and approach to dif-
ferent composers show that he
is an excellent musicoiogist,
Mr. Speigelman, also, is a first
rate musicologist. He knows
how to create the proper bal-
ance which is needed on the
harpsichord. The harpsichord,
unlike the piai.o, is an instru-
ment which offers no dynamic
contrast by using more or less
physical force. It must be
wielded by rhythmic contrast
— by holding back in spots and
letting go in others. The only
other control is gained in the
use of the pedals, which may
open up more strings for use,
thus gaining more sound. Mr.
Speigelman is expert in every
sen.se of the word, and uses all
of his own, and the harpsi-
chord's facilities to gain his ex-
cellent results.

A Warm Performance

One of the outstanding and
easily noticeable features of the
entire evening's performance
was the warmth of the per-
formance. This Baro<iue music,
which is thought by some to
be cold and unimpressive, was
performed by Mr. Koff and
Mr Spiegelman as the creation
of Human Beings — as expres-
sions of deep emotions. It was
a joy to hear them perform.
For many people in the audi-
ence, this was the first time
they had heard the harpsichord

er Baroque

Blind extremism can have no
place in a viable political sys-
tem; it must never be allowed
to accede to a position ol power.
The results of such an acces-
sion can be seen within the
Brandeis student community.

A new organization (Stu-
dents for an Alternative Bran-
d e i s Environment, SABRE)
aims to offer at least partial re-
dress. It aims to provide and
foster a climate of opinion in
which disputes between stu-
dents and administration can be
settled with the least possible

leadership" — they have fos-
tered it. We constantly decry
the ''tyranny" and "ignorance"
of the administration, but fail
completely to assess our own
faults. Surely it is absurd to
claim infallibility, or even suc-
cess, in the face of such con-
stant failure, but that's what
the "student leadersliip' seems
to do. Child-like solutions will
not solve the difficult problems
of Brandeis.

SABRE does not seek, nor
does it offer, easy answers to

such a voice. SABRE cares
deeply about the future of this
university and its students. It
hopes to offer a real alternative
to the failure of the past few
years. The administration will
be forced to fill the vacuum left
by the "student leadership" un-
less we are able to do so our-
selves. A critical, frank re-
evaluation of our goals and
methods must start now. Let's
stop sacrificing the good in the
name of the perlect.

Levitan

By EVELYN FRANK

The topic of Dr. Ginger's lec-
ture was supposed to be
Democracy in America by dc

Tocqueville, a 19th century

observer of the growing nation

in the comparatively new

world. Although Dr. Ginger

occasionally circled back to the

book, the course of the hour

certainly found us in many

diversified areas of discussion.

The lecture was started with

an ancedote from The South-
paw, concerned with a rude-
speeched baseball player who
finally decided not to say the
national anthem, to sliow that
he had the courage of his con-
victions. Ah! thouglit the happy
student, seeing that now we
would discuss Tocqueville's
cliapter on the minority. But
alas, no such luck. From there
we went on to tiie equality of
the settlers, tlie cupidity of the
lirowing society and the rela-
tive value of such motives. Dr.
Ginger pointed out that the
ultimate evil of dominance of
the majority would be that
there would be no minority
opinion at all, and he added
that we have come close to this
point today. The changes in
today's society from the society
of Tocqueville were noted, and
Dr. Ginger quoted Henry
Lloyd, who said that individ-
ualism was a "frontier ethic."
This seemed to be tlie main
point of his lecture. In the
meantime, the mind of the
poor freshman in the room was
busily jumping from one state-
ment to the other, at any min-
ute ready to seize on the con-
necting statement. However, it
never came, and this freshman
went away thoroughly con-
fused.

By CHERYL ZACKIAN

Dr. Allen Levitan's orienta-
tion-week seminar was attend-
ed by seventy-five freshmen
most of whom had read Paul
Goodman's Growing Up Absurd
and who arrived at Golding
Hall eager to discuss their
views regarding that contro-
versial work.

Goodman's themes were: the
Organized Society, the genera-
tion it is presently fostering,
and the problems inflicted by
the former on the latter.

Dr. Levitan started things
ofl" by dividing the book into
five topics stressed particularly
therein. The original seventy-
five students were divided into
groups corresponding to the
live topical sub-headings: jobs,
delinquency, culture, patriot-
ism, and the organization-dom-
inated community.

To incite discussion, Dr.
Levitan staled that in his read-
ings of the New York Times
over the past few months, there
have been at least two articles
per issue with some relevance
to Mr. Goodman's work.

Once settled in their smal-
ler discussion groups, students
aired their opinions — pro and
con — of Mr. Goodman's
theses. A typical group was
that which explored the book's
treatment of American culture
(or the lack thereof).

It was expounded that the
apparent void of discernable
culture is due (1) to the with-
drawal of the gifted unwilling
to contribute to it and (2) to
the failure of administrators to
exploit constructively those
few gifted people who are
available.

Describing artistic refine-
ment on the American scene,
Dr. Levitan employed the term
"Culture Vulture-ism" (that's
the lip service paid to creative
genius without putting it to
positive use and the populari-
zation of major objects d'art
without the accompanying
comprehension and apprecia-
tion ).

rooms away from the univer-
sity, among other people, or
they live in special student
cities in the midst of apartment
or other buildings. The idea
behind this set-up is that the
students are valuable members
of society, and they should live
in it. A university should not
be a protected and a protective
institution, but a workshop for
intellectual work in the middle
of a larger community. The
purpose of the university is not
only to give the students knowl-
edge of intellectual matters but
also to teach them how to live
in a community which consists
of people of all professions.

As long as American students
are protected from themselves
and from the rest of society, as
long as they are treated by ev-
erybody as kids, they will al-
ways be more immature than
tlieir European colleagues. It
is a hard process to grow up in
modern society, but it is easier
to grow up inside the society
than outside the society. It is
easier to adjust to the rules of
a big community if you are
treated as a part of it. The fail-
ure of the American university
is that it treats the students as
persons who grow up without
the ability to live with other
people; this leads to intellectu-
al snobbery and to the main-
tenance of the class-society.

Hartman

By PAUL AXEL

Thirty-five Freshmen settled
themselves in Shifrman217 (the
chairs were comfortable but the
demand exceeded the supply)
for an Orientation Week semi-
nar with Dr. Robert Hartman,
Assistant Professor of Econom-
ics. Before Dr. Plartman ap-
peared, one student called for
a show of hands of those who
had actually finished reading
the suggested background; John
Kenneth Galbraiths The Afflu-
ent Society. Six hands were
raised.

Dr. Hartman summarized
Galbraith's principal ideas as
follows: Everyone seeks to
maximize a certain quantity
known variously as "welfare,"
"joy," or "happiness." Happi-
ness can be expressed as a quo-
tient: Consumption divided by
Desire. The traditional view is
that Desire is fairly constant,
and therefore that an increase
in Consumption is all that is
needed for an increase in Hap-
piness. This view is the basis
of the preoccupation with pro-
duction as an index to the state
of the economy. Galbraith says
Desire is not a constant.
Through the phenomena of
emulation and advertising,
every increase in Consumption,
at least of private goods, causes
a proportionate increase in De-
sire. Thus an increa.so in Con-
sumption causes no increase in
total public Happiness. This
does not apply, liowever, to
public goods, such as roads or
schools, an increase in which
does bring an increase in Hap-
piness. Therefore we should in
the future adopt policies to in-
crease the production of public
goods.

Dr. Hartman and the students
together worked out some criti-
cisms of Galbraith's argument,
the main one being that almost
all desires are contrived, and
that therefore Galbraith's
choice of desires most worthy
to be satisfied is more subjec-
tive than objective.

When the seminar was over.
Dr. Hartman remained in the
room to answer questions. At
this time he admitted, sotto
voce, that he really agreed sub-
stantially with Galbraith, but
for the sake of argument "I'll
disagree with anybody."

Sweden

rate, one of the highest in the
world. Why, if people have so
little to worry about, should so
many commit si:icide? Any an-
swer to this question must be
largely theory, but many have
been offered, and may be valu-
able. It is possible that precise-
ly because the Swede does not
have to worry about day-to-
day affairs, he magnifies per-
sonal problems when they do
arise, having no framework
within which to solve tiiem
easily. Many may feel stifled
by their societ.y, which often
seems to encourage uniformity
and the middle way in favor of
a strong commitment in any
one direction. Whatever the
answer, the suicide rate looms
large as a question mark on
the Swedish record.

I suppose that no article on
Sweden is complete without a
word on Sweden's blonds and
"free love." Most Swedes have
dark hair, and "free love" is
a term of Americans, not
Swedes. The prevailing attitude
can best be described as en-
lightened, with none of the em-
barrassment or false bravado
accompanying discussions of
sex in this country. "Enlighten-
ment" may be applied to many
Swedish attitudes — the Swede
has reconciled tradition with
progress, and distilled the best
from both; he has maintained
his personal worth while being
cared for his entire life; he has
learned to live in the best of
many worlds.

I noticed faces in the crowds the Johnson Administration, as

of the balcony where I sat. and few saw the politician behind

the looks in their eyes when
ever the Kennedy Administra-
tion was referred to. These peo-
ple knew about political cam-
paigns only through working
in 1960, and they saw Johnson
as a Southern politician who.
though able to get his programs
through as Kennedy never
could, was lacking in his prede-
cessor's elegance and, more
important, his idealism. They
were working in this campaign
for an infinitely more impor-
tant goal — to defeat Goldwater
and silence Miller.

The delegates had other prob-
lems on their minds. They
knew that the slogans of na-
tional unity behind a solid
leader were farcical. Southern
delegates strolled down the
boardwalk, or walked in the
hall with looks of bewilder-
ment and distaste for the pro-
ceedings. They disregarded the
demonstrations conducted bril-
liantly by SNCC for the sup-

the elegance of Kennedy.

Most people went home hap-
py from that convention. No
mater how many glamorous,
but exhausting parties Perle
Mesta threw, or how many
choruses of Hello Lyndon were
sung, most people went home
happy because they were satis-
fied with the Vice-Presidential
choice, and because the atmos-
phere was less political than so-
cial. Perhaps that's the way it
should be. and that's the way I
will remember it.

Brief bits will stand out in
my mind — artists sketching
the Mississippi demonstrators
on the boardwalk, boys giving
out pamphlets urging the nom-
ination of Yetta Bronslein for
Vice-President ("A vote for
Yetta and things will get bet-
ter"), staring at Adam Clayton

A big drunken man was singing
sad, angry blues like a chorus
in the background.

Tearful Blue Eyes

From one of the houses down
the street where wo had
stopped had come a little man
with light skin. He was oldish
looking, though I imagine he
was only in his late forties or
early fifties, and he had wa-
tery .almost tearful, blue eyes.
He stopped me to talk and I
tried to excuse myself in order
to go on with my group but he
would not let me go, so I re-
signed myself to standing and
listening for a few minutes. At
first I couldn't understand him.
He spoke with a heavy south-
ern accent in a kind of slang
that came out in phrases punc-
tuated with "and you under-
stand now," or "now see." His
thoughts, and seemingly his
mind as well, were all humble.

Then I began to understand.
He was talking about my eyes,
telling me something about
how he liked my blue eyes and
they were "just like his," how
he had blue eyes too," and how
he saw in them that I would
understand.

Desperate Dig:ni(y

He was a strange man. He
would stop and s mile some-
times, a sweet sad smile that
reminded me of a cocker span-
iel. Then he would ramble on
and say something I couldn't
imderstand and repeat himself
a lot. He was pathetic, almost
desperate, wanting me to un-

remember some of the things
he said, how he told me that he
hadn't never slept with no
white woman, no siree, and
how he had gone to college in
Louisiana 1-o-n-g, 1-o-n-g ago,
and how he would punctuate
his remarks with a sharp jerk
of his head and body. He told
me how he'd protect me, how
he'd protect my honor, and he
pointed to the big drunk who
was still there singing accom-
paniment for the little blue
eyed soloist. He told me how
he would protect me from him.
Afi:ain, Blue Eyes

And then he told me again
how he liked my blue eyes,
how he knew from my eyes
that I would understand, how
my eyes were just like his.
Somehow. I don't remember
how I managed to leave and
take up my mission again. But
I can't ever forget. What have
we done to make it so that a
man must grovel and crawl in
order to see himself stand
erect?

Boston, through the middle
class neighborhoods of Dorches-
ter and Jamaica Plain, to sub-
urban West Roxbury. Day's lit-
erature points out that 12.8 ''I
of the district is Negro and that
42.8% is of foreign stock. Oth-
er than Negroes, Irish, Jews,
and Italians are the most nu-
merou.s ethnic groups.

Day's literature says that
median income in the district
is $5706 per year ($4631 in
Roxbury) compared with $6272
for the Commonwealth; this is
the second lowest median in-
come in the state. The litera-
ture goes on to say that 4 9%
of the civilian labor force and
5.7% of the male labor force
in the district is unemployed;
this is the second highest un-
employment rate in the state.
Moreover, 29 7</ of the houses
in the district are substandard
(40.7% for Roxbury). Accord-
ing to a United Community
Services bulletin, 89.3% of the
houses in Roxbury were built
before 1939, 83% of the occu-
pants are renters, and of the
28,802 units only 2,504 are pub-
lic mostly Federal). The wel-
fare rate in Roxbury is 159.
per 1000, and the dtath rate is
32.9 deaths per 1000 live births,
according to UCS. Certainly, if
the poor and miserable are
more receptive to a leftist can-
didate, Day should be able to
poll a substantial number of
votes.

Raisins in the Sun

One indication of Day's
strength might be measured by

the performance of others who
subscribed to his platform run-
ning in local Democratic pri-
maries for State Representa-
tive. These men. along with
Day, Breeden, and a few oth-
ers, called themselves the New
Breed. In the heavily Negro
seventh district of Suffolk
County (Roxbury ». New Breed-
er A. Reginald Eaves ran a
poor fifth in a field of eight.
But the other New Breeder,
Michael Haynes, broke a rec-
ord for primaries in that dis-
trict, polling more than 2,900
votes. The third New Breeder,
John Obryant. ran fourth in a
field of ten in the largely Jew-
ish tenth district.

Of course. Speaker McCor-
mack is favored to win the
election. Registration in the
district is overwhelmingly
Democratic, and most regular
Democrats will vote for the
Speaker. Republican Moles-
worth will steal a few votes
from McCormack among the
Irish but will not make a serious
dent. McCormack has not cam-
paigned seriously in the past
twelve years. Day will prob-
ably do better than Moles-
worth, but McCormack will
probably poll a simple major-
ity. Of cour.se. Day's candidacy
is valid even if he loses badly,
because he is instilling a sense
of community and politics in
Roxbury and is motivating citi-
zens to register and vote Above
all. Day is challenging the com-
piaccncy of the political estab-
lishment in recognizing the
needs of his people.

THE JUSTICE

September 29, 1964

Judges' Bench

First and Ten

Pete Weiner

This past summer was an eventrul one tor Brandeis
University and the siudents of this line institution. The
administration, I'ollovvini^- the advice of the Faculty Ath-
letic Commiitee, abolished the Brandeis track team and
made drastic changes within the structure of the Athletic
Department. These changes include a reorganization of
the administrative structure, two new coaches, a revami)ed
intiamural i)rogram, a curtailment of varsity sport sched-
ules, anil a reorietitation of varsity si>ort emphasis.

This decision was made without any student opinion
recjuested as were several oiher University edicts and reg-
ulations. \'et the Athletic Committee re^mrt is a step in
the right direction, one warranted by the chaotic situation
in the Athletic L)ei)ai-tment during the past few years.
Now Irv Olin lias complete respoiisii>ility over varsity ath-
letics, physical education aiul intramurals. lie can delegate
power and duties to his staff but he retains all resp.)nsi-
bility. This is the first time one m<in has had comi)lete
control over the whole department and this vvill be ex-
tremely beneficial to trie workings of the de{>artment. Now
there will be no intra-deparlmenial strife and dissension
as tfiere was in ihe past.

There is now unity and cohesion in a situation which
was rather chaotic last year. Olin came into a situation
Willi men he had never worked with and tried to create a
reasonable situation. He succeeded fairly well considering
the many difficulties — conflict of personalities, difficult
schedules, long seasons, lack of talent and desire and all
the other complcxii ies of a new j(»b. This year Olin has
what he wants — new coaches, men he can work with, com-
plete departmental control, and administrative backing.
Olin has the desire to perpetuate good Brandeis teams and
he is sincere. It's now Olin's ball to cai-ry — win or lose.

New Faces

The newly apjxdnted coaches re{)resent an attempt to
keep personnel within tlie confines of the University. It
is a fine concept ii' api)lietl intelligently. Full-time coaches
and employees have a responsibility to the University.
They are usually dedicated to the ideals oi' the University
and wish to foster pride in the institution. Last year
many problems restdted from the large number of part-!
time coaches. This year there is only one — M.iity Martin-!
ian, fencing coach. John Hughes is both the soccer audi
baseball coach as well as a phys. ed teaciier. F(»xy Flumerei
is the varsity golf coach aiul Assistant Director of I'hy.^i-
cal Kducation. Chariie Smith is a grad student coaching
wrestling.

Kay (iinger, the newly appointed tennis coach, is
chiiirman of the American ('iviii/.a< i(»n dei»artment and a
member oi ilie Faculty At!de!ic Committee. He has ne\er
coaclied a v<irsity te<im and his appointmenl can be viewed
only with very reserved enthusiasm until he proves his
coaching abilities, (ieiie Booth is now a full-time staff
ni'>mber teaching physical e(lucati(»n, aiding in intramurals.
and coaching freshmen basketball. Our former publicity
(li.ector, (:iiff Sundberg, has resigned to become Sports
Fditor of Tfie l>i»s(on Traveler. Our new publicity director
is Larry Strum, College Sports Fditor of the Traveler.

Intramurals will become more important this year due
to the establishment of the Mens' Intramural Council. Olin
wants greater participation in the Brandeis intramural
program and feels that a student voice in the administra-
tive aspects of the program would heighten interest
The council will be comprised of representatives from each
dorm who will formulate policy concerning intramurals.
They will plan schedules, decide regulations and advise on
ways of improving the intramural program. This is the
first attempt to give the students a voice in the adminis-
trative framework of the intramural program and offers
great possibilities for the future.

The division to abolish the Brandeis track and cross-
country team has raised the ire of many students. No
reasons were given in the faculty report but there were
many factors affecting the decision. They include the |)er-
sonality of the track coach, the exi)enditures involved, and
the paucity of talent available. Inter-collegiate track is a
fulLtime operation and rec^uires depth as well as talent.
Brandeis had the talent but it was dispersed between
eight or ten tracksters. Brandeis could not compete with
other schools in the area with any hope of success without
the re(|uisite depth. But why not limited meets or the
establishment of a track club? W^hy was intercollegiate
tr;ick abolished entirely without any consideration of the
stuilents?

Student opinion concerning the abolishment of the
track team was not even retpiested. The decision was made
in the interests of the University, not the students. Yet it
was only one of a number of decisions made during the
summer while we were on vacation. The administration
has t'ollowed past precedent i)y announcing new policies
and regulations at times when there can be no effective
student protest or discussion whatsoever. The Adminis-
tration (lt»es nol respod sludenl opinion and feigns sin-
eerily even when it dties re(|uest selected student opinions.
Any dealings with the administration along the line td'
discussion <'i\u only result in futility because cd' the desire
of tfje University to foster what it considers right. This
defeats the idea of a liberal university and engenders
animosity rather than pride.

Booters Open Against Stonehill;
Coac/i Hughes Voices Optimism

Wy ALAN SECiAL

When the Brandeis soccer team op-Mis its season Thursday against Stonehill,
it will field a somewhat experienced, talented and well-conditioned squad. Coach John
Hughes now feels ''slightly optimistic" about the team's prospects to improve last
year's poor ?i-\) record.

Although the booters had
considerable individual talent
last year, they lacked the suffi-
cient team play and desire to

to be the team's strongest posi-
tion. Co-captains. Alan Weiti-
grad and D i m i t r i Mavros,
played outstanding defense last
year. Both are seniors and

diocre season. The ability of
the players to work together
will be the 'vital factor for
success." During the past f^'vv
weeks Coach Huglu's lias been
impressed by the team's spirit,
attitude and willingjiess to
work. The boys volimtarily
came to practice a week before
school began and have under-
gone a rigorous training pro-
gram with emphasis only on
getting into shape. Last year
the team got

Hughes says that they are ' re-

the Harvard Crimson, police
approached one of the leaders
and asked for his ID card.
When he refused to show it,
they arrested him He went
limp, and was picked up and
carried to a police car. Hun-
dreds of students then massed
around the car to prevent it
from moving. When police said
they would wait until the mob
dispersed, the crowd, instead
of moving, swelled until it to-
talled 2,500. Thursday evening
the crowd was still in full
force. Several scuOles erupted
between students and police.

Crisis and Commitment

A litllr more than three years a^o the niembeis of
the present senior class attended Student Activities Nij?ht
as pajt ol" their Freshman Orientation. A few memories
remain: one is of the Student Council President, another
is of the editor ol The Justice. Both si)oke about Brandeis,
and althouKli they took noticeably difl'ei-ent i)ositions,
important tor l>oth was tlie conce})t identified by a word
repeated often that ni^ht — "commitment."

The word was used, we believe, to describe certain stu-
<]ents, or j)eoi)le. These iK^ople had not only detine<l to tlieir
own satisfaction "riKht" and "wn.ng", but they had also
decided that it was necessary for them to do all they could
in order to insure that their University followed the
"riKht" course of action, and not the **wronK" one. Let us
»iiy they had defined for themselves a "resjMmsibility."

"Comnntment" has seldom been heard since that eve-
nin^^ and properly so. For there has been a noticeable lack
of "commitment" at Hjandeis, amouK students who con-
sider themselves to l>e socially and i)olitically aware, if not
wise. To iM'Kin with, the members of the Student Council
who did not attend Wednesday's Student Union meeting
show a shameful lack of commitment and lack of resiK>nsi-
bility. Any i>erson who treats an elective position with
such disdain that he finds it unnecessary to attend a meet-
ing of the entire electorate called specifically to discuss an
action taken by the electe<l representatives is committed to
little el.se than furthering his own narrowly detined self-
interest. By his refusal to offer leadership, a leadership
which he re(piested by campaiKninK\ he is ^uiHy of the
dishonesty of a cr(M)ked pui)lic servant, and has proven
him.self unworthy to liohi a i>osition of pul)lic office in
which he is recpured to consider the interests of any other
tlian himself.

But the most saddening refusal to accept responsibili-
ty was not tliat ot the elected "leaders." It is the lack of
commitment on the part of the Student Union that was
shr-tkiriK. There is no d(»ubt that a lar^e numher of Bran-
deis students consider the new dormitory rules handed
down t(j be )rrati<»nal and plainly "wron^-" There is even
less doubt that at the m(»ment very few Brandeis students
feel any need to exert themselves in any way to alter these
rules. Here is a striking lack of responsibility, or striking
act of irresponsibility on the part of those who chouse to
remain inactive.

And this is the most meaningful interpretation of
'•resi>onsible*' and that widely used epithet "irrespcmsible."
F«>r any person who refuses (o exert his efforts in active
oppositiitn to a recognized unjust rule is acquiescing in its
injustice. This will strike true more easily in other con-
texts. It is by n(»w a widely-accepted principle that those
who remain inactive in the presence of the injustice that
is Mississippi "iaw and <»rder" or Nazi legality are accept-
ing the clearly unjust state of affairs, and in so d«>ing are
guilty of encouraging tiie continuation of these practices.

The consecpiences of the unjust laws of Mississippi or
Nazi (lerniany and the motives of the rulers are infinitely
m(»re tragic and horrifying than are those <d' the Brandeis
rules '.{\h\ rulers wi' consider to be unjust. Any comparison
would be slanderous. P>ut we V>elieve that there is a uni-
fying prineiple: any pel son who fituls it impossible to
*"1ecognize an unjust or "wrong" rule must, if he wishes
to be recognized as a "responsible" person, contribute all
he can toward clianging that rule; any person who does
otherwise is "irresponsible."

Let us consider then, the dormitory i ulcs that have
l)een proclaimcMl and let us consider their rightness or
wrongness. Atid then let us decide upon the appropriate
course of action.

The Student Union has been relatively
successful in its collection of the Student
Activities Fee. We w(»uld like to suggest
here one improvement in procedure. In the
past, when local administrators were col-
lecting the fees as i.ait ((f the matriculation
fee, students receiving financial aid were
not exemi)te<l from paying. To exempt all
scholarship students from paying tlie fee
would seriously hamper Student Uni(»n
sponsored activities — one-third (»f the en-
r(»lled undergraduates receive financial aid
from the University— to forego approxi-
mately one-third (d" its annual incoriie would
be financially dangerous to the Union.

More })racticable, and commendable on
other grounds, is an arrangement which

would permit scholarship students to lx)r-
row from the Student Union the $30 wliich
would enable them to pay the SAP. The
loan ci)uld be made repayable sometime in
March, when the pressure of buying books
and paying other beginning-of-the-year ex-
penditures is pas.sed. Since student-spon-
sored activities continue until late May, the
Union would not need the last third of their
funds until sometime during the spring, so
that postponing collection of one-third of
the annual revenue in this manner would
not handicap student activities.

We urge the Student Council to put this
or a similar suggestion into operative lorm
as s(K)n as possible, if not immediately,
then in time for next year's collections.

Letters to the Editor

(EDITOR'S NOTE: Mr. R «;.<?-
man (nal Mr. Sher arc bo'ih
iiicnihvrs of the class (( '('>4
avd bof/j joniwr edit or s oj Uie
JUSTICE.

After leafing through the 12-
page feature article in last
week's Justice, the discerning
read( r soon discovers an ap-
palling fact: to wit, never has
so much pomp been written
with so little circumstance.

Is it possible, one wonders,
that man is * guilty of inscnsi-
tivity, condemned to loneliness
and structured for death'? (c.f.
Sidney Wolinsky). Is it true
that "there is more honesty
among junkies than there is at
Brandeis"? (c.f. Peter Sajovic).
How does one go about sugar-
coating a school? (c.f. Melvyn
Freilicher). In what sense can
it be said that the frosh get
"founder and founder .••ome-
times even approaching the
pro-thereof"? (c.f. Stephen Lis-
ansky). (They get dumbfound-
er. perhaps?) And liow long
can we flounder in failure (sic)
while our opponents flourish''"
(c.f. John Margolis). (Have
some medeiros. Margolis.)

The entire issue is a textbook
case of jello-journalism. The
point is not merely that the
prose in this issue is often
strained beyond the bounds of
credulity. The point is not that
self-appointed experts are pro-
liferating ad nauseam. Tiie
point is not even that the tech-
nical standards of journalism
employed in the Justice have
ri.*ien to new de{)ths. The point
is a singular unit empk-yed in
the paintings of Georg« s Seu-
lat during Frances Post-Im-
pressionism period.

Be that as it may (c f. Bar-
t^.Ma Appell). it remains clear
that the Justice is giving itself
airs as never before. More im-
portant than muddled prose
and mixed metaphors is the
incredibk presumption of any-
one who can say the following:
"When we told them wiiy we
had come, they understood
very well, all except one wlio
was drunk He did not see why
or what diflercnce it made if
he associated himself with a
country that had demanded
his life to gamble in its wars,
yet wouldn't give a chance to
stand as a man." (c.f. Sue Dia-
mondstone).

This, of course, implies a su-
perior understanding on the
part of the writer of countries
gambling with the lives of
their citizens and of what it is
to "stand as a man." But surely,
these claims are far too serious
to be made in such a glib and
oflhand manner.

Again ccmsider Mr. Sajovic's
encomiun. on life: "Being alivo
is at first just plain being wild
and woolly, mad bad sad and
had; sperxiing a certain tiivio
crazy loopy out a window and
into the dark, standing {»n
mountainsides, yelling at the
moon." We went crazy loopy
out a window, too, v\ hen we
were three years old. until our
mothers caught us at it. Yet.
Mr. Sajovic, at times, displays
a certain admirable candor.
"Think of the smell around a
'burnt match skating in a
urinal'," he says, "it means
what 1 mean."

And linally: "Now poetry is
for the old. The satiric vacancy

of Eliot — having lost its appeal
to youth and liken the poets
with it — has pas-ed to the ma-
ture, the loved and the lost and
ready again. It is. perhaps, this
travelling pessimism that is so
characteristic of New Brandeis
and of society at large." (c.f.
Sandra Sherman.) This is a
flijL'ht ol pompousness paral-
leled only by the ensuing dis-
cussion of a "pessimism con-
cerned with Epistomological
Eros."

Yes. there may indeed be a
satiric vacancy here, but it is
not Eliot's.

"Immature boys, but it does-
n't matter — most of them are
Fresi.men." Ti^is cliarge was
ra.sed against the men of De-
Roy Hall at the Union i.ieeting
Wednesday night. September
30. The reasons behind our ac-
tion are suflicient lo reiute this
allegation.

1 ) When the open door w as
being protested last .\ear the
Student Union was arting as a
result ol the denial of its right
to be consulted That right still
exists today. To have remainecl
at the Union meeting would
have meant participation in a
protest which was called by a
small group without the con-
sent, concurrence, or even ce.n-
sultation of the student body
— submission, in essence, to a
fe)rfeiture of rights.

2) The meeting was. in Pres-
ident Moras words, "not to
make any decisions." We see
no necessity to support any
such seizure of power.

3) Gag rule has no place at
a liberal university. Yet Mora
stated: You will have your
say. after I have mine." And.
he ce>ntinned, "V«h may not
ask questions. t"e)r I will have
said all I have to say." Our
presence at such a meeting
would have been, to say the
least, ineflectual. Its legality
was, at be>t, cpuslionablc.

As a result of the manner in
whicr the protest was calle'd,
DeRoy voted to refrain from
joining the action. We attend-
ed the meeting in the hopes
that we could participate in
student government. When our
continued stay would have im-
plied concurrence with the pro-
test movement, our only alter-

Hitchcock's 'Marnie'

Andrew Meyer

Of Americiin directors, Alfred Hitchcock is the niQst
eminent and respected by directors and critics abroad. Yet
his films continue to be misunderstood, underrated and
<»ften despised by critics and "serious" filmgoers over here.
Although respected for their technique and craftsmanship,
they are dismissed as being merely suspenseful and enjoy-
able, but hardly worthy of the^-

: j: : .^ enjoyed by

serious discussion

more "profound" films such as

Dr. Strangelove or David and

Lisa.

Yet Hitchcock's films con-
tinue to be tremendously pop-
ular, appealing to all levels of
audiences who will always go
to see his latest, whether or not
it has been critically endorsed,
always sure that it will provide
tionie original and ingenious en-
tertainment. Americans have
the strongest escapist tenden-
cies, and they are also the first
to deny these tendencies. A film
that is fun cannot also be
significant or meaningful. Fur-
thermore, to recognize that a
Hitchcock film is either of these
things, is to realize that he is
observing some pretty cutting
truths about our attitudes and
tendencies. In Rear Window, it
"was implied that we somehow
enjoy sitting back and observ-
ing other people's miseries and
indeed getting involved with
them so long as we can main-
tain a rc.speclable distance. The
Man Whu Knew Too Much
shrewdly observes a typical
American family against a
background of Europtan in-
trigue, and shows them as
amiable, failhful, very emo-
tional and just a little bit
stupid.

Psycho was c< rtainly a little
too frightening to be dismissed
and it wns difiiciilt to ignore
Hitchcock's knocking of the
American obsessions with
money and bathrooms. How-
ever, audiences somehow tend-
ril to ignore the far more
frightening nnplications of The

Birds which, indeed questioned
man's assumed supremacy over
the earth. "Serious" filmgoers
could not forgive Hitchcock for
presenting such complacent
and ineffectual characters as
heroes, possibly afraid to rec-
ognize themselves therein.
(Somehow Antonini's equally
tedious characters manage to
get by, possibly because they
speak Italian.) There was a
failure to see the dark humor
and penetrating observation in
shots such as the one in which
the playgirl, dressed neatly in
furs and heels, descends
smoothly into a motor boat in
a rustic town and starts off
across the bay holding a bird-
cage all the while.

Too Serious

If The Birds was misunder-
stood by a failure to be taken
seriously, as a mere thriller
ratiier than a vision of the end
of the world, Marnie, Hitch-
cock's latest, seems to be miss-
ing out by being taken too seri-
ouly, as a case history in psy-
chiatry. The heroine (Tippi
Hedren) is frigid, a compulsive
thief and a pathological liar,
who goes beserk when she sees
red. Now this is certainly too
much if taken on any kind of
realistic level; even the absurd
transformations of Joanne
Woodward in The Three Faces
of Eve were more believable.
Sean Connery as her husband
who attempts to play psychia-
trist to her is too smooth, virile
and strong to be human (not

'Seduced and Abandoned'

By JULIE SWAIN

The situation is fairly common but the solution (as in Germi's other comic suc-
cess, Divorce, Italian Style) is not, at least, outside Sicily. A brief description of the
situation runs very little risk of exposing its solution; as the title states, a modest and
well-bred young girl is seduced by the fiance of her sister and becomes undeniably
pregnant; the young man refuses all responsibilitiy. Follows the whole Sicilian com-

How to be
a good talker
in any crowd

Start by reading The New York Times every
morning. It's the favorite newspaper of the
best-informed people on or off campus.

You'll hold your own in any crowd. Your
conversation will be more lively, Interesting and
Informed on every conceivable timely topic . . .
because those are the qualities of news coverage
The Times brings you in unequalled abundance.

And when it's time to stop talking and tackle
the books, watch how The Times broadens your
understanding of so many subjects!

Pressman, director of the Ac-

held at Brandeis this summer,
describe the objectives of his
program.

Co-sponsored by ABCD and

against the Moncada barracks on almost the very same spot here on the eastern tip
of the island. Now, five and a half years after his triumphal march on Havana, the
Maximum Leader of the Revolution had returned in honor of that historic occasion.

A program of studies includ-

adnnnisterod by Mr. Pressman
and his twelve assistants, three
of whom. Jean Soso '66. Jon

With the occasional addition of

Many rnderprivileged

The students tliemselves were
chosen with respect to their
ipfoHitjon'^e nnd th«ir environ-
ment. Approximately half the
boys were colored, and many,
but not all. came from depress-
ed neighborhoods. All. how-
ever, came from 'educationally
underprivileged" areas — that
is to sav. areas where educa-
tional and environmental con-
di^'ons are such that most boys
eiMier never finish high school
or else terminate their educa-
tion at the high school level.
This was not. then, a juvenile
rehabilitation or vocational
training program. Each of tlic
participating boys had the oo-
tential to achieve an P^lLK-ation

programs were well organized, — __

and well suitable for my en-
joyment. We have an athletics
team they consist of. Basket-
ball Soeftball, Socker and the
one I like the most track. I
think that the team's were
ready to beat any other team,
nl the after noon we had our
Independent Projects and swim-
ming I had fun in both of them.
I like Wednesday; the Kid's all
go on different trips & Places.
We saw movies every afternoon
at 1. oclock we see war movies
funny movies. I realy enjoyed
myself this summer. At Bran-
deis thev have three Chaples
1) Jewish 2) Protosin 3) Cath-
olic. They have a bookstore
there and you could buy stuff
there like Pinint with the name
Brandeis University. All I hope
is that nexe year if they have
something like this again I
hope I will be able to come
again.

Brandeis University had a
summer program for boys
going in the 9th grade from
Roxbury. Dorchester, and
Charlestown. It show us what
college life on the campus is
like.

They told us to write what
we think about this program
I'm going to write what I like
about it now. The English pe-
riodis all right. Then we have
our reading period, which I
like to read We atheletics pe-
riod every day which just about
everybody likes. Then we have
lunch. After that we usually
watch a movie film, then go to
a course you took. Last of all
you go swimming, then home.

Now for the dislikes or criti-
cising. Some things I don't like
about it. It's boring not excit-
ing at times

One thing that's going to
happen in school is brightness.
We were picked because of the
t;»|pnt we had. They gavp us a
lot of tests. When it is time for
school we might be ahead of
the class in most of the sub-
jects.

Most of the trips we go on
are exciting. When .some us
went to Camp Elbanoscott, we
did a lot of atheletics both days.
One Wednesday we went to
Mt. Monadonck. On the way
down we got lost. We was
stung, worry, and confused. At
the top the view was fa.scinat-
ing. Mountains in the distance,
calm lakes, cool breeze.

At Brandeis we do tours of
its buildings. All modern ex-
cept for a few. More buildings
being constructed for college

students for there knowledge.
The food there is good.

don't want to know I'll tell you
anyways.

1. English Period
Our teachers are Mrs. Yag-
gy and Mr. Wilder. We have
learn a lot more about Eng-
lish in the program. We can
read and write much better.
We are doing a play call<?d
the Monkey s Paw it is a
lot of fun.

2. Athletics
Athletics is a lot of fun
playing softball, .soccer,
track, wrestling and foot-
ball.

Softball and wrestling and
Soccerr are my favorite
sports. We have very good
facilities to play these sports.

; 3. Lunch

That is what I wait for
everyday. Becau.se the food
is great sometimes. Most
kids eat like they never
eaten before. The castle is
very nice because it is not
to small or big.

4. Eye Opener
Is a period of enjoyment.
We have movies and guid-
cnce for high school courses
we should lak.*. This is one
of the best periods of the
day.

5. Independent Projects:
This time I took up mathe-
matics it is a lot of fun. It
seems to be easier than in
the eight grade, it's all new.
I never know about this
part of algebra, until I came
to Brandeis.

6. Swimming
The facilities are great. 25
yd pool with a diving board
We are learning how to
stay on top of the water for
five minutes, the brest strole
and the side stroke The
part of all is the froo swim,
when we l)ody dives into
the pool, without anymore
instruction for the rest of
the day.

That is what a day at Bran-
deis is like, well its time
to go home, so thank-you
for this oortunity to come
to Brandeis for this pro-
gram.

won the backing of a substun-
tial segment — and quite like-

The Old Days

This should not, after all. he
surprising. Before the Revolu-
tion. Cuba, like most Latin
American countries, was cliar-
acterized by the extremes of
great wealth and grinding pov-
erty. While the obvious emer-
gence of a "new class" of gov-
ernment officials and high-level
technicians has given the lie to
the claim of a classless .society,
the overwhelming disparity l)e-
tween private opulence and
public squalor has been largely
diminished. It is this egalitar-
ian flavor, this conscious etlort
to court the previously under-
privileged, that has m^do what
would otherwi.so bo just an-
other drab Communist rev(»lu-
tion so popular witli the people.

The regime is cotnr.iittod to
a policy of economic and .social
equality that must pain the
privileged as much as it pi<>:ises
the deprived. Rents have Ix'MI
reduced — in many cases by
up to 50 "'o — and tenants have
been promised the ownersiiip
of apartments currently b.'i ig
rented. The private clubs and
beaches have all boon thrown
open to the public. The farn^d
Veradero peninsula, ot\ce the
playground of the duPonts, in

Of course, most Cubans still
can't afford the toned down

EDITOR'S NOTE: Mr. Kassler is an attorney in the city oj Boston, who worked jor COFO in Clarkesdale, Mississippi this
suimner as a legal counsel. .,,.... r^, . i. i- xu --^-^ i

a fair and'impan'iarVearTnK, and to the right of due process of law— particularly when involved in prosecuting a

Negro or a civil rights worker. As a volunteer attorney in Mississippi during the past summer, 1 had occasion o

witness first hand the Missis-
sippi system of law and how it
operates. While my conclusions
are based solely on
experience, I feel that my ex-
posure was sufficient to make
my judgments valid.

A consideration of law and
justice in Mississippi must first
recognize that the Mississippi-
ans' contempt for the Negro
and for his fellow while civil
rights worker is so blatant and
outright ttiat it would be semi-
comical sometimes if it were
not so incredulous. An exam-
ple of this is the trial of Jack
Pratt, counst'l for the National
Counsel of Churches, which I
attended in Clarksdale, Miss.

Tile complainant and sole
witness for tlie prosecution
against Mr. Pratt was the pros-
ecuting attorney for Cahoma
County, who testified regarding
Mr. Pratt's negligent operation
of a motor vehicle. When cross-
examined by Mr. Pratt, this at-
torney and officer of the court
voluntarily spoke of his preju-
dice against "all your kind"
(meaning I suppose civil rights
workers) and of his bias against
all the people that we were as-
sisting (the Negro community).

If this statement in open
court was not enough to give
©ne a feeling of the deep root-
ed hatred existing in Missis-
sippians, the idea was con-
firmed by the prosecuting city
attorney who stood up
added to his colleague's state-
ment: "Why hell, if that's all
you're trying to prove. Mr.
Pratt, I'll save you and the
court the time and stipulate
that the witness is biased and
prejudiced just like ALi. OF
US are." Tlie desire to laugh
at so ludicrous a statement was
stifled by the realization
the statements as to the abso-
lute bias and prejudice of the
witness were being ignored by
the judge. A verdict of guilty
was imminent and immediately
iol lowed this dialogue.

judge, he was told that he had
committed two offenses of bur-
personal glary and larceny two and a
half years before and had only
been sentenced and served two
years on one of these counts.
Although he had been previ-
ously told that the two years
he had served constituted the
full sentence for both offenses,
he was now told that he had
been a "bad boy" and was be-
ing sent back to state prison.
When interviewing the young
man, I asked whether at any
time he had been apprised of
his right to counsel or was ever
given any detailed information
regarding the reason he was
being sent back to prison. He
answered that no one had ever
told him of his right to have
im attorney represent him. Fur-
thermore, on his case some two
and a half years previous, he
had never had an attorney nor
b(tn advised that he had the
right to have one.

Since he was now serving

this additional two year sen-
tence, it was decided to deter-
mine the legal process that re-
turned him to the state prison
in order to discover whether
there was anything we could
do for him. Unfortunately, we
were denied all access to any
of the papers concerning the
case even though the clerk of
court admitted that the docu

COFO workers who had been
arrested for not leaving a court-
house after being told to do
so. Actually, they were not
even arrested in the courthouse
but were arrested outside the
building in the courhouse park-
ing lot. After bailing the two
young men out at 2:30 in the
morning and finding that the
trial date was set for one week
later, I prepared a removal peti-
tion on both their cases to the
Federal District Court.
Renioval Petition
The reason for this removal
petition was two-fold: First, it
was claimed that the nature
and the circumstances sur-
rounding the offense were civil
rights orientated and thereby
presented a federal question
which should properly be con-
sidered by a federal court.
Secondly, and most important,
we maintained that since the
defendants were civil rights
workers and one v^as a Negro,
a fair and impartial hearing
could not be obtained in the
state courts of Mississippi. We
alleged that the judicial sys-
tem in the State practiced a
systematic exclusion of Ne-
groes from all phases of all
court proceedings and was
therefore unconstitutional. Fur-
ther, the judges, court officials,
and juries had continually
shown that they were not im-

and me"ntsweV"e pubfic" records' Vnd ^^^^''^}: ,^^ should be noted
that anyone had a --hi fn «pp here that when a petition for

had a right to see
them. Consequently, it was im-
possible to determine properly
whether or not this young
man's constitutional rights had
ever been violated. The same
clerk of courts told us that un-
der no circumstances would he
voluntarily allow us to look at
that any of the pertinent papers and
that we would have to get a
"court order" to see them —
which we did. It was neces«?arv
to bring a Writ of Habeas Cor-
pus in the Federal Court in
order to merely discover wheth-

removal is filed in a Federal
District Court, as was this case,
the state court is prohibited
from going forward with any

In total disregard of this bas-
ic rule of law, the state court
convened in Batesville to hear
the cases of the two young men

seven days after their arrest.
An associate attorney of mine
appeared at that hearing and
informed the judge that, pur-
suant to the federal law, the
state court was without juris-
diction to hear the case. The
judge thanked the attorney but
ignoring him, called the court
into session and asked where
the two defendants were. By
leave of court, my associate
again addressed the judge con-
cerning the improper nature of
the proceedings that were
about to be conducted. The
judge, in true southern fashion,
thanked him again for the in-
formation'and asked the prose-
cutor what he thought. The at-
torney rose and said: "Judge,
are you goin' to let this boy,
this purported lawyer, tell you
that you don't have jurisdiction
in YOUR courtroom?" Appar-
ently convinced by this appeal
to his own power, the judge or-
dered the trial to proceed and
sentenced both young men in
absentia to 4.5 days in prison
and some $500 in fines. Bench
warrants were issued for their
further proceedings until the
Federal Court has made a pre-
liminary determination wheth-
er the case is one that should
be heard by a federal court or
should properly be heard in the
state court from which it was
removed.

To Insure Domestic Tranquility . . /

By DAVID P.ELFAND

EDITOR'S NOTE: Mr. Geljand is a member oj the Class o/ '66, who worked for COFO in Laurel, Mississippi on a voter
registration project during the summer oj 1964. The jollowing article is an excerpt jrom a letter which he wrote to his jamily
at the end oj July.

A week ago Saturday, there was a sit-in at the Kress store in Laurel, and although everyone was served,
the service didn't end merely with coke and hamburger. A twelve year old local Negro, Larry, had a pistol pulled on
him and ordered out of the store by a Southern **Lady". Another Negro from Hattiesburg was beaten on the head
with a baseball bat by one redneck while another redneck 'jabbed, punched, and struck him in the ribs and back with
another baseball bat. Fred Richardson, a senior at Amherst College, had first gone into the store to observe the
>it-in and if possible take pictures. He was ordered out of the store and I went in through another entrance. We
had POSITIVE identification of —

•'A deprived child is one who knows only one culture."
One of the major projects undertaken this summer was to
establish libraries in communities where library facilities are
unavailable to Negroes.

the two men who beat Ben, the
Negro from Hattiesburg and
the "woman" who pulled the
gun on Larry. After the four
Negroes were forced from the
store the police arrived and
went in to find the persons who
had "bothered" the students.
While the police were inside
Fred, who was outside, was at-
tacked, beaten to the ground,
and the C-3 was stolen. "When
the police came out we ob-
tained the names from them of
the people who had attacked
the students. We then went to
the police station, swore out
warrants for their arrest and
delivered the warrants to the
police who were still at Kress's.
Unfortunately, that was not the
end of it. Sunday evening three
voter reg. workers went to the
Texaco gas station near the
trailer (a fellow and two girls,
all white) to get some cokes.
One of the fellows and one of
the gills were attacked by a
group of whites, knocked to the
ground, kicked and beaten.
Again positive identifications
were made plus the fact that
we got a tip to the full descrip-
tion of the car they drove off in
and the license number. When
we went to court to appear on
Monday another V.R. worker
was assaulted right outside the
courthouse by a Mr. V. L. Lee
(the warrant was sworn out on

tinuances until Wednesday.
On Wednesday, even though we
had just a perfect case against pie who had atta"cked the three

the defendant "Not Guilty"!!!
The charges against the peo-

James Eason, the man who at-
tacked Ben in the ribs and
back, the charges were dis-
missed and he found "not
guilty." Larry MaGill's case
was even more of a farce. In
fact, it was the most farcical
game of courtroom musical
chairs that I have ever seen.
Larry was just tremendous. He
held his head up and without
the slightest flinching testified
very bravely while all the
"good white people" were
standing around sarcastically
laughing, like "hollowly." Af-
ter the prosecution superficial-
ly went through the steps of
presenting a case, the defense
began presenting its star at-
tractions, on the beautiful three
ring circus. Except for the
gravity of the situation, it
might have been quite amus-
ing Finally when the defend-
ant Mrs. 'Hilifield took the
stand, she asked the judge,
"Now Judge, Your Honor, you
know that I've never seen thjs
boy in all my life, and even if
I had ever seen this boy, do you
think that I, a fine member of
this community, could have
ever pulled a pistol on such a
small little boy?" The defense
attorney then asked the judge
to dismiss the charges on

students at the Texaco station
and against the man who at-
tacked the V.R. worker Mon-
day, were postponed until this
past Friday for the former and
until next Friday for the latter.
This past Friday, our musical
chairs justice continued. A po-
lice officer testified that he
went to the Texaco station on
the corner of Chantilly and
Amarante after the attack was
reported, but everyone had al-
ready left. He testified that the
gas station was within the city
limits. The defense attorney
asked him. did he in fact see
the beating at the particular
gas station? That in fact, was-
n't it possible as far as the offi-
cer knew that the beating may
have occurred at any one of the
gas stations in the area? To
which the officer replied, "Yes,

question yes or no. Do you
know for a fact where the East
border of the City of Laurel
begins or ends?" To which
Lynnell re^plied, "No." The de-
fense attorney then asked the
judge to dismiss the charges
against Frank Upton et al., on
the grounds that the prosecu-
tion had not clearly shown that
this alleged beating took place
within the city limits of Laurel
and therefore it is outside the
jurisdiction of the court. After a
great deal of deliberation, per-
haps this time ten seconds, the
judge so ruled and the charges
were dismissed. Thus ended
our third "day in court."
Back to Wednesday . . .

just outside the courtroom,

and prosecution of Zellner by
Alabama officials in January,
1963, when Zellner was a
SNCC field secretary working
throughout the South. Zellner
was visiting the campus of his
alma mater, Huntington Col-
lege, in Montgomery on Jan. 8.
He was quietly talking to two
friends, one still a student at
the college, when Painter and
Lingo drove up. Lingo at this
time was still a private citizen,
as he did not assume the posi-
tion of Public Safety Director
until Jan. 14, the date of Wal-
lace's inauguration. Neverthe-
less, Lingo got out of the car,
rights came up to Zellner, and told
him that he was under arrest.
When asked on what charge,
Lingo replied, "Conspiracy
against the state of Alabama."
It was only after Zellner had
been taken to the police sta-
tion and imprisoned for sev-
eral hours that a warrant was

False Charges

During my stay in Mississip-
pi, I was called up to represent
a 19 yonr old nativr Negro "who
was serving his second term in
the state penitentiary at Parch-
man on a charge of burglary
and larceny. The Columbus
COFO office reported that the
young man had not actually
committed any such crime. In-
stead he had been picked up for
distributing literature without
a permit along with some of
the other COFO workers. With
his companions, he was taken
to tlie city jail in Columbus
and segregated into the white
and Negro cells.

Sometime later, and without
any hearing or explanation, the
yoiinti man was taken from the
city jail to the county jail.
Brought before a county court

er a man s constitutional rights
had been violated! A simple
reading of the papers on file in
the state court would have pro-
vided us with the necessary in-
formation to properly advise
the young man. Apparently, as
a Negro and as someone in-
volved in the freedom move-
ment, he was considered to
have no constitutional
that could be violated.

Not only the rights of certain

individual citizens of the state

are ignored. It seems that the
official structure in the state of
Mississippi does not recognize
any governmental power above
and beyond its own. This lack

days of hard labor. State law
defines as a vagrant "an able-
bodied person having no prop-
erty sufficient for his support
who loiters about a city." Zell-
ner, a staff member of SNCC
receiving subsistence pay, could
hardly be put in this category,
and when the case was ap-
pealed the city prosecutor was
forced to drop the case.

Second Charge

But in their efforts to harass
and to intimidate Zellner state
officials had meanwhile manu-
factured another charge against
him. On the day of his arrest
Zellner had purchased a cam-
era and lens from the City
Pawn Shop for $85, paid for
with a personal check on an
Atlanta bank. The next morn-
ing the owner of the pawn shop
saw an item in the paper about
Zellner's arrest for vagrancy,
and called the bank to inquire
about the check he had re-
ceived the previous day. The
bank reported an insufficient
balance. The police, being in-
formed of this and having sub-
stantiated it, charged Zellner
that morning with the felony

lowing the presc^ntation of the

thai the pawn-shop owner
neither signed a warrant nor
pres.sed charges against Zell-
ner.

Zellner was indicted on the
false pretenses charge by a
grand jury on Feb. 18, and was
tried before the Circuit Court
on Feb. 27. The ease was de-
clared a mistrial by the judge
when the jury could not reach
a decision. With this, the city
prosecutor tried to convince
Zellner to plead guilty to a
lesser ofiense rather than press-
ing for a retrial.

OfTers Substitute

Admitting to Zt^llner and his
lawyer that the former would
never receive a fair trial in
Montgomery, and that he was
under pressure from above to
get Z(^llner convicted on some
coimt, he offered to substitute
any charge agreeable to Zell-
ner as long as he would plead
guilty and leave town. Zellner
refused to plead guilty to any
charge, but agreed to submit to
a nole contendere plea to a
charge of trespassing where
neither time nor circumstances
were indicated. As a result,
Zellner was fined $25 by the

measurements:

Freedom School registration
— over 2000 — was double the
predicted number. Twenty
schools were planned at the
start of the summer; by the end,
41 existed — most created at
the insistence of local Negro
communities. During the drive
to .sign up people for the Free-
flom Democratic Party, over
55,000 signed Freedom Regis-
t nil ion forms, many at the
risk of losing their jobs — or
worse. Meetings of 500 Negroes
were held in small Delta com-
niunitics where two years ago
oniy a dozen came. Though a
very small number of Negroes
actually were put on registra-
tion rolls, hundreds tried.

Progress

These accomplishments might
sound small, but two years ago
thty were unthinkable. White
civil rights workers were dis-
couraged from coming into the
i*t;Ue because their presence
would bring harsh retaliation
to the Negro families who
housed them and associated
with them. It took six months
before Negro SNCC workers
were able to rent an office and
overcome the Negro commu-
Mitys fear of what would hap-
pen as a result. Negroes were

beaten, abused and murdered
with impunity, and such atro-
cities were greeted with an
overwhelming silence by the
nation's press. ^^,^^ ,

It is the presence of large
numbers of "outsiders" which
spared dozens of other lives
this summer, "outsiders' whose
relatives and friends pressured
the federal government into

Negroes, unable to face grow-
ing unemployment and oppres-
sion, were leaving the state.
Whites were pleased at the
prospect that a large migration
would lower the population
majorities Negroes had in
many counties, and thus re-
duce the threat that massive
voter registration would pose
to the white power structure^
Many of the Negroes who did
remain were hopeless and de-
moralized.

It seemed that the only
remedy was wide-scale federal
intervention at the level of the
.school, courthouse and cotton-
field. This the government was
unwilling to do. The only other
way to avoid hideous eruptions
was to get .several hundred
people to come in, and do it
themselves, thereby bridging
the gap between the ignored
black population of the state
and the rest of the nation. This
might also force the federal
government to recognize its re-
.sponsibilities.

not only for themselves, but for
the Negro population as well.
A congressman can endure
much, but not an irate mother.

We left the state with many
impressions, but a common
feeling, shared according to the
danger of the situation, was
that we were isolated from the
rest of the United Stales.

It also became clear as the
summer progressed that Missis-
sippi was not a monolith. With-
in the genera] oppressive con-
ditions in the state, there were
some differences between com-
munities and counties: for ex-
ample in Greenville, it was
relatively safe for civil rights
workers to walk down the
streets; in Greenwood, even a
journey to the (Negro) laun-
dromat was pr( pared with cau-
tion. In McComb. bomb blasts

Saberiety Misses Point

By JOHN SEELEY

The first sign of determination on the part of authoritarians is, in some places,
enough to bring out suggestions of submission if not outright collaboration. It comes
as something of a sun>rise when this is the reaction at Brandeis. Here, many of us
work for, and almost all of us sympathize with, movements of social change (e.g.

workers have, at present, no

which they are employed. They
spend their time there just to
earn money. It would be to the

Everything FUifrs

The Republican party is in
a state of flux. Its members
are searching for a leader. The
Conservative members have
found one in Goldwater, but
the moderates are still looking.
If a leader appears, then the
Republican party may be abl«
to throw oflf the bonds of the

.-ind to allow as much independ- is that no follow-up program is

planned. Although both ABCD
and Brandeis have indicated
that they would like to hold
another program of this type
next summer, no provisions
have been made to either main-
tain contact with this year's
graduates during the school
year or to invite them to parti-
cipate in another summer pro-
gram. Thus, without further
stimulus, it is possible that the
substantial short term benefits
of this summer's program will
never be translated into long
term gains by the participating
reading and boys. Says Pres.sman, "We told

Inequality

There is a good deal of truth
in this analysis. Much as ra-
tioning may be resented by the
well-to-do, it is doubtful that
the one-third of the nation
which previously lived almost
exclusively on rice, beans,
bananas and root vegetables
finds the limitations on its con-
sumption of meat, milk, eggs
and fish a great inconvenience.

lunch with the purpose of pro-

the students." Among the films
offered were Walt Disney's

afternoons found small groups
c,f students and faculty climb-

college, attending a Boston
Fops concert or an Arts Festival
play, or cruising in Boston
Harbor Students were en-
couraged to stay over at least
once on camnus for field trips,
informal athletics, individual
tutoring, and for a general in-
irodurtion to college campus
life. This gave the students an
idea as to what actually con-
stitutes life on a campus, while
at the same time exposing them
lo one of the more pleasant
aspects of the college rxperi-
rnce. By showing the students
that "education can be fim," in-
centive was thus provided to
achieve what may have once
been an unattainable and per-
haps vaguely unnleasant dream
— a college education.

Was the program a success?
Mr. Pressman thinks so, say-
ing that, as far as it went,
it was extremely successful.
"They (the students) seemed to
respond to teaching very well,"
he .said, "e.snecially during the
?econd month." Although there
were some difficulties in reach-
ing and holding student interest
and attention during the first
week.*?, tho courses and activi-
ties were so designed that most
hostility soon vanished, and the
bovs became actively interested
in their work This may per-
haps best be shown by the stu-
dent compositions elsewhere on
this page, which have, for the
most part. hig*h praise for the
PToernm. But perhaps most in-
dicntive of the worth of this

go?"

The project Itself came about
as the result of a joint idea
presented by the Brandeis
chapter of the Northern Stu-
dent Movement and ABCD.
Last February, Eve Eisenmann
'64 of NSM began discussing
the idea of a project to aid stu-
dents in deprived areas with
Brandeis' Leonard Zion, Asso-
ciate Dean for Student Affairs.
He and Brandeis President
Abram Sachar then contacted
ABCD and set up a Faculty
Committee to co-ordinate the
program with the Boston
agency. The committed, con-
sisting of Professors Lawrence
Fuchs (Am Civ.) and Raymond
Ginger (History). Dean Zion,
and Lawrence Kane '57. Assist-
ant to President Sachar. then
hired Mr. Pressman as Project
Dirrctor.

Mr Pressman, a graduate of
Brandeis (class of '58), once
served as an assistant to Pro-
fessor Fuchs while both were
with the Peace Corps in the
Philipines. He has been very
active in civil rights work in
Massachu.^etts. having served

ical achievements of tht Revo-
lution.

One of the primary objec-
tives of the regime has been
the elimination of the glaring
inequality between city and
country. While Havana, which
Max Lerner has characterized
as "Miami with an old world
flavor," still has a virtual mo-
nopoly of those creature com-
forts which are the mark of
Western Civilization, substan-
tial strides have been made in
improving the conditions of
rural life. Over 12,000 new
dwelling units — more than
half of those constructed since
the Revolution — have been
built for people who lived in
crumbling, weather-beaten old
shacks.

Public Health

With the development of new
crops and the exploitation of
old ones, full-time employment
has been found for thousands
of peasants who previously
could find work only four
months a year when the cane
was being cut. Unemployment,
which rarely fell below 8%,
has thus been almost complete-
ly abolished. The erection of
a considerable number of pub-
lic health centers and a recent
regulation which requires all
new doctors to spend a year in
the countryside have made free
medical care a reality for peo-
ple that previously had little
opportunity to obtain such as-
sistance. Government efforts
to construct a hydro-electric
power station in the eastern
part of the island hold the
promise of providing thousands
of rural residents with clec-

vided the Negro with a sense
of dignity. One evening, while
talking to a crowd that had
gathered in the lobby of the
Habana Libre, formerly the
Havana Hilton, I asked those
present to tell me what the
Revolution meant to them per-
sonally. "I'll tell you what the
Revolution means to me," said
one intense Negro student. "It
means the chance to talk to you
here in this hotel. Before the
Revolution we weren't allowed
in places like this."

Education

A fairly close correlation can
be established, observers have
noted, between income, race
and age with support for the
regime. The improvement in
the economic lot of the poor
and the social position of the
Negro suggest that there is a
good deal of validity in the
iirst two parts ol the equation.
It is the vjst educational bene-
fits for the young which estab-
lish the accuracy of the third.

Before the Revolution 25 Vo
of the population over 9 years
of age had never attended
school. The entire educational
system suffered from a surfeit
of graft and corruption. One
Minister of Education before
the Revolution declared that
his department was "a cave
of entrenched bandits . . . and
an asylum of professional high-
way robbers."

Budgets

The regime was determined
to put an end to what bad be-
come a national di.«>grace. The
educational budget was in-

(Continued on Page 11)

Possibilities include Scrantoa,
Percy (should he win the gov-
ernorship of Illinois), Hatfield,
or even Lindsey of New York.
That a leader will come for-
ward is doubtful.

If Goldwater loses by the
margin that is expected, it
should be clear that his philos-
ophy does not fit the times The
implication of this is serious,
for if the Republicans continue
in the Goldwater philosophy
then the party will have out-
lived its usefulness.

About a hundred years ago
another party outlived its use-
fulness. It won Presidential
elections through having war
heroes for candidates. Eventu-
ally it died out, and was re-
placed by a new vibrant party
which was founded on a plat-
form concerned with the major
issue of the day. That party
was the Republican party.
When it outlives its value, then
it will go the way of its prede-
cessor the Whig party, but
probably no new party will
.vpririg forth, and an Era of
(«o<m1 Feeling might return to
America. That is the diagnosis
of the ailing Republican party
unless someone speaks up, or
loud voices shut up.

court and released.

In addition to confessing the
weakness of their cases, offi-
cials publically admitted their
desire to drive the civil rights
worker out of the city. The
Assistant Solicitor of the city,
Maury Smith, admitted in

court that he had earlier of-
fered Zellner and his attorney,
Clifford Durr of Montgomery,
to recommend a $100 fine and
suspended 30-day jail term Hon
both the false pretense and va-
grancy charges if Zellner
would plead guilty and leave
the city. Zellner refused. Fur-
thermore, Durr was informed
by an outgoing state official of
the administration of John Pat-
terson that his successor,
George Wallace, had wanted
Zellner arrested because of his
(unwarranted) fears that he
would organize demonstrations
at his inauguration.

Lingo had gone out to ac-
complish this. Patterson, while
having no sympathy for Zell-
ner, had refused to have him
arrested on trumped - up
charges. Neither he nor his
Public Safety Director, how-
ever, were successful in pre-
venting Lingo and Painter from
doing just this.

Followed by Officials

This harassment continued
with Zellner's release on $800
bond on Jan. 10. For the next
five days he was followed con-
tinuously by officials of the
Dept. of Public Safety. This
went on to such lengths as fol-
lowing Zellner when he at-
tended his grandmother's fu-
neral, refusing to leave when
this upset the members of the
funeral party, and following
Zellner as he traveled to his
fatlier's home in Panama City,
Fla.

These series of events, con-
tinual official harassment and
persecution, illegal arrests,
trumped-up and contrived
charges, and prejudiced prose-
cution, are part of the daily
lives of civil rights workers in
many parts of the south. The
official prosecution of Zellner
in Montgomery is by no means
unique. These "legal" perse-
cutions, reflecting the integral
part of the legal system in the
machinery maintaining segre-
gation, have prevented the ci-
vil rights movement from tak-
ing advantage of the legal
guarantees of their individual
and civil rights.

Inadequate Funds

Lawyers associated with the
movement have been so over-
burdened in preparing de-
fenses that they have never
been able to assume the offen-
sive as plaintiffs. Available
funds have not proved adequate
for getting and keeping work-
ers out of jail, let alone for be-
ginning suits against officials
infringing basic legal rights.
The result has been that seg-
regationists are still free to
commit illegal acts in the name
of the law, while civil rights
workers have been forced to
remain on the legal defensive.

Civil damage suits against
officials whose actions violate
existing state and local laws is
one way at hand to gain the
legal offensive. The difficulties

voted 67 to 5 not to participate
in the demonstration and

girl's dorms in East voted not
to participate but noted that
they agreed in principle with
the demonstration.

John Jacobs and Howena
Bobbins noted that the Stu-
dent Union lost its will to fight
following its wars with the ad-
ministration last year. John
said that unless we demon-
strate now, the Student Union
is dead. Rowena demanded that
the administration enforce its
own rules rather than rely on
an unnatural and imposed
honor system.

The Union voted down the
demonstrations primarily be-
cause it was felt that not
enough people would partici-
pate in the protest to be worth-
while.

are many: lack of personnel;
the great court costs incurred;
the difficulty inherent in prov-
ing officials have overstepped
their legal authority; the near
impossibility of getting such a
finding from southern juries;
and the narrow applicability
and slowness of the process.
Nonetheless, the benefits would
be great in terms of the deter-
rent and sobering effect the
threat of such civil action
would have on law enforce-
ment in the south.

A series of successful civil
actions against public officials
for violating the rights of citi-
zens would compel the legal
authorities to at least consider
the law in the pursuit of their
activities. Zellner's suit against
Alabama state officials may
prove to be both a model and
an incentive for similar actions
in the attempt to transform the
enforcement of segregation into
the rule of law in the south.

signed as surety for their ap-
pearance, was then called for
not having produced them.
Since I was not present, the
judge issued an additional war-
rant for my arrest. I was in-
formed of these events in
enough time to flee the state.
Justice for All?

These instances of the denial
of individual rights and the
lack of a concept of laws su-
perior to their own, are not the
rare, isolated occurrence.
Rather, flagrant disregard for
both man and law is a run-of-
the-mill, daily event in Mis-
sissippi. Until there are vast
social and political reforms in
Mississippi assuring the rights
of every man, no one — regard-
less of color — can be sure that
he will get fair and just treat-
ment in the trial of his case.
Until the state and its laws and
judicial system recognize ev-
eryone as being entitled to in-
dividual rights, both Negro and
white run the risk of having
personal rights and liberties
violated.

It seems to me that a stale
that can systematically deny
some of its citizens their basic
human rights, cannot be said
to insure these rights to any of
its people. With prejudice in-
bred and no true, equitable
system of law and order in Mis-
sissippi, the meaning of "jus-
tice for all" will remain for-
eign to the state. As long as
equality in the eyes of the law
remains a foreign entity in the
state of Mississippi, can this
land ever be called "the land
of the free, the home of the
brave"? In asking ourselves
this question and in becoming
aware of the situation in Mis-
sissippi, we may not be able
to offer any immediate solution
to the problem. As long as we
are willing to attempt to find
the answers, however, we have
at least made the first step to-
ward change. If people are
willing to take the first step and
to fight for this change, then
someday we shall overcome.

going great. Everybody was
having a great deal of fun. Two
other fellows and myself had
managed to attach a long heavy
rope to a branch of a tree that
was overhanging the lake. We
then rolled up a broken-down
wagon so that the fellows could
swing down from the wagon on
the rope, out over the water
and drop in. The other two
fellows and myself tried it first
to make sure that it would
work. Well, it did. Then little
Larry MaGill, who had come
along with us from town, want-
ed to try it also. He got on the
wagon, took hold of the rope,
and started to swing off. How-
ever, his hands began to slip.
It was a tremendous sight to
see Larry, who is no more than
five feet two, but weighs about
150 pounds, bouncing along the
water. Just great! I don't think
I'll ever forget the sight! About
an hour or so later. Bill Haden,
a white COFO worker from
Oregon, a local Negro and my-
self were sitting along the edge
of the lake about 400 yards
from the farmhouse singing
some songs and playing the
guitar. Just after finishing the
last verse of Dylan's "Who
Killed Davy Moore?", we saw
two whites coming towards us
down the path from the farm-
house. Since were were ex-
pecting other people from the
COFO office to be joining us,
we didn't recognize them, and
we d i d n't think anything
strange about this. When they
got somewhat closer and I did-
n't recognize them, I asked Bill
if he knew who they were. He
didn't know. A few seconds
later, the younger man (about
5 feet 10 . . . 200 lbs), came up
to me and asked me if I knew
"Dixie." I told him, I wasn't
sure, to which he responded,
"Well, you'd better be sure,
and quick." I told him, "Well,
sit down. Maybe we could
work it out together." He told
me just to play it. Well, I've
never learned a song quite so
fast in all my life. Apparently,
he didn't appreciate my efforts,
because the next thing I knew,
the guitar was out of my hands,
kicked, and thrown out into the
lake. Almost simultaneously,
about 15 other rednecks, about
25-55 yrs. in age, emerged
from the trees and brush sur-
rounding the lake. The other
man, who had first come up,
Mr. V. L. Lee (strange that he
should appear again, isn't it?),
began beating me with the big
wooden club. I saw that it
would be impossible for me to
run around the edge of the lake
back to the house without be-
ing further attacked and beat-
en. So, naturally, since I was
born for the water, to home I
went. After getting from 15-25
feet out, Mr. Lee pulled a pistol
from beneath his shirt and be-
gan firing in my direction. Si-
multaneously, or just before,
about 10-12 of the other men
began shooting in the direction
of the house and the other flee-
ing COFO worker with pistols,
rifles and shotguns. When the
bullets from Mr. Lee's gun
began hitting the water, not
five feet from my head, I
thought it was time to make a
sub-marine exit. Coming up

about a hundred and fifty feet
further on, the bullets were
splattering a further distance
from me, perhaps 30-40 feet.
When I came up, I also saw
the remains of what had been
my trusty old guitar case. Since
I didn't see any men at the far
side of the lake, I was hoping
to swim there, get out, and try
to make it up to the house.
About ten minutes later, as I
got out of the lake, two men
came towards me out of the
brush. The man in front had a
forked tire iron and the man
behind him had a steel chain.
Since old freedom fighters nev-
er give up, I again tried to hu-
manize with the cat, asking
him "Wouldn't you like to sit
down so we can talk this thing
over? We're just out here for
a day's swim and relaxation,
and although we might have
our differences, I'm sure we
could talk things out." While I
was saying this, I was gradual-
ly taking a few steps back
toward the lake, just in case he
didn't respond positively. Well,
he didn't. Menacing the tire
iron, he ordered me to get over
to where the rest of the men
were and not get wise. For a
few more seconds, I tried to
reason with him. I must have
been doing pretty well because
at least a minute must have
passed and he had not hit me
yet. Just about at that moment,
Mr. Lee comes from the brush
around the lake with his club.
He swings it at me across the
back and the man with the tire
iron hits me across the knee
while I think the man with the
chain hit me across the ribs and
back. Deciding that it was bet-
ter to be a live chicken than a
dead duck, I got the hell out of
there. (Note the pun, hell.) By
some miracle I was able to
make it through the brush,
barbed wire and all the shoot-
ing (by now from both sides)
up to the farmhouse. When I
arrived, the COFO office had
already been notified and I got
on the phone immediately to
the F.B.I, in Laurel. After
about five minutes, F.B.I, agent
Connors (I had had 2 inter-
views with him before and
we'd gotten to know each other
a little) called back and want-
ed to know what was going on.
I told him that the Civil War
was reoccurring, and so that he
could have immediate evidence
for violation of our civil rights,
I asked him would he please
come on out . . . with the rest
of the Federal Gov't. He want-
ed to know if we had notified
the local police and sheriff's
office. I told him we had, but
they refused to be of any "as-
sistance." I then asked him if
he could not at least protect us;
would he be so kind as to come
out and take pictures down by
the lake of the men who had
been firing on us. We ex-
changed a few more words, and
I went to lie down on the floor.
I vaguely remember the sheriff
arriving maybe a half hour to
40 minutes later and taking the
names of everybody in the
house. We asked him if he
would give us protection back
to Laurel or at least ride with
us. He replied, "I didn't carry
you trouble-makers out here
and I'm not going to take you
back." With this, he summarily
left us. About 15-20 minutes
later, the ambulance arrived
and we were taken to Jones
County Community Hospital.
Although treatment was good,
the expense, as you can see
from the enclosed bill was
high. Please collect what you
can from the insurance com-
pany and send it to the medical
committee in Jackson.

fy Mr. Lee, and since I think
we have enough evidence to
bring charges, with assault and

gether and slept in the same
dormitories.

Some cracks in Mississippi's
white front did appear, though
it is difficult at this point to
gauge their depth: prominent
white women signed news-
paper ads pleading that the
public schools be kept open
despite integration. Jackson
Mayor Allen Thompson (who
had the city invest in an extra
$2 million worth of riot equip-
ment) asked for compliance
with the Civil Rights Act. A
white former tugboat-captain
became one of the few white
delegates of the Freedom Dem-
ocratic Party to the National
Democratic Convention. Twen-
ty-five whites attended an in-
tegrated play in Indianola, not
many miles from James East-
land's plantation.

Negro's Plights

Not only did we have to ad-
just to new rules of survival
(complete with two-way radios,
checking in at departure and
arrival), but we faced the des-
perate facts of life which con-
front Mississippi's Negro pop-
ulation: they are unable to play
a significant role in local, state
or national politics, even
though they constitute 42% of
the state's population. They
are mainly unskilled, yet the
state has refused to institute
federally-sponsored retraining
programs because whites fear
the competition of a skilled
Negro work force. They are
subject to the most miserable
education, and are then re-
jected by voting registrars for
being illiterate. In some parts
of the state, Negro sharecrop-
pers are being replaced by
mechanical cotton pickers,
while in other areas, Negro
children must go to school in
the summer in order to work
in the cotton fields in the fall.
But above all, they are sub-
ject to constant and often ran-
dom, harrassment and physical
punishment.

None of us are the same now.
We know, as much as we can,
what it is like; and we will
never be able to forget any-
thing — the fear, the frustra-
tion, and the great courage of
so many people.

chological "explanation" at the
end is amazingly logical in its
illogicality.

So critics cry out that Marnie
is illogical, unbelievable, un-
real. But why does it have to
be any of these things? It is

all make believe, a modern
fairy tale in which popular con-
ceptions of psychiatry replace
supernatural spirits. The hero-
ine is afflicted by the evil lurk-
ing in her childhood rather
than by a witch or stepmother:
Prince Charming is a hand-
some and wealthy young pub-
lisher who takes her to live in

The film does not have to be
"interpreted" to be understood
on this level; it exists on this
level and everything in its
physical aspect is in key with
his elegant mansion,
it; the romantic music, the
stagey and glossy sets, the pale
and dreamlike colors. Further-
more, whereas Hitchcock's
heroes have always been fool-
ish, bumbling and mot her -
dominated although friendly
and congenial, Stan Connery,
tor the first time since Lau-
rence Olivier in Rebecca (an-
other fairy tale), presents an
ideal hero, one who is really
strong and dignified.

Marnie therefore represents

a radical departure in style and
theme from most of Hitch-
cock's work; it is a film made
to be simply decorative and
beautiful rather than a serious
attempt at personal expression
or even a carefully constructed
chase melodrama like North
by Northwest. Thus it is a sur-
face work, minor Hitchcock
and far from being a great
film.

Film for Film's Sake

Yet the point I am attempt-
ing to make (without appearing
too self-contradictory) is that
a film need not be great or
meaningful to be wo r t h -
while, even above and beyond
its function as entertainment
(in whicli Marnie certainly suc-
ceeds.) Marnie is a pleasure to
watch simply as a revelation
of the elements of Hitchcock's
magnificent style: the marvel-
lously precise and economical
camera set-ups, the use of sus-
pense to create sympathy with
a character, the sensuous
imagery and evocative colors
and the beautifully photo-
graphed love scenes. All these
things have so much more to
do with the originality and
essence of a movie that t h e
familiar elements of plot, real-
ism and social significance that

creased by 200%. By 1962,
three years after the Revolu-
tion, primary school enroll-

condary school enrollment
tripled, and technical school
enrollment had quadrupled.
From all over the countryside
children have been brought in-
to the cities for a free educa-
tion. These scholarship stu-
dents — called "becados " —
are in many respects the most
enthusiastic supporters of the
Revolution. They have been
given a chance at life oppor-
tunities of which they formerly
were hardly aware.

In 1961. "The Year of Edu-
cation," classes were called off
for over 270,000 students who,
under the slogan, "If you know,
teach, if you don't know,
learn," were sent into the coun-
tryside in a massive attempt to
eliminate illiteracy. By the
years end, 707.000 adults had
been taught to read and write
and for those who were inter-
ested continuation classes were
established. No one was neg-
lected. A group of pea«5ants

old man in their village had

The student leaders, many of
whcrn looked ^' P ^i ".^J, '^ *-^
newly arrived class of 68 ns
new recruits in the fight against
the admini.«?tration are slowly
realizing their error. A major-
ity of the freshmen on campus,
though bv no means all. are
opposed to many of the posi-
tions taken thus far by the Stu-
dent Council and the editorial
board of the Ju.s/lce.

This lack of response to the
student leadership is mo^^'y
the leaders' own fault 1 ney
optimistically expected new
and somewhat insecure st udeins
who had never lived under the
old parietal rules to in«^tinc-
tively join in the fight to re-
gain"them. This sort of expec-
tation is absurd. For one thing,
the insecurity of most new stu-
dents tends to make them hesi-
tant about answering calls to
arms. The resounding n^aJ";'^'
tone of statements issued Urns
far by student leaders, such as
the Jnatice editorials of Sep-
tember 29, tends to frighten
away more freshmen than il
arouses. Secondly, many fresn-
mcn, never having lived under
the old system of parietal rules
are not sure they are willing
to fight for them. For most, the
new system represents as mucn
if not more freedom than they
had in high school anyway.
Thirdly, many freshmen resent
the idea of being dictated to by
their representatives. These
students feel an autocratic stu-
dent leadership which ignores
their views is just as danger-
ous as an autocratic adminis-
tration which also ignores them.
If the student leaders wish llic
support of the freshmen class,
they will have to take a less
narrow-minded view of thern.

OUR FUTURE IN COLOR TV LOOKS RO**"

The Color TV market is in full bloom —
and GT&E along with it.

The reason? Our Sylvania subsidiary
has made dramatic advancements in the
performance standards of color TV sets.

In developing these new receivers,
Sylvania drew upon the vast research fa-
cilities of GT&E. One result: the Sylvania

"Color Bright 85" picture lube using a
revolutionary new red phosphor that in-
creases brightness on the average of 43
percent over the industry standard.

Our Sylvania Electronic Components
Group is one of the two largest suppliers
of receiving tubes and picture tubes . . .
used by 7 out of 10 TV set makers.

, >o ci major factor in all phases of com-
munication through sight and sound, it
is small wonder that GT&E has become
one ot America's furemost corporations.

If you're looking for a young, aggres-
sive company with no limit to its growth,
you may wish to view GT&E in the light
of your own future.

Council Set to Propose
10 Constitution Changes

Student Council voted Monday to bring before a Stu-
dent Union referendum ten amendments to th*^ Student
Union Constitution. A Student Union meeting? to discus.s
the proposals will be held Umiirht in Nathan Seifer at
7:00 p.m., the referendum is to be held Friday in Schwartz
Hall.

Vol. XVII, No. 3

Brandeis University

October 14, 1964

The approval of two-thirds
of the students voting in the
referendum is needed to in-
corporate the proposals as
amendments to the Constitu-
tion.

Eight of the amendments are
related to the student collec-

Student Board of Review Finds Council
Activity Fee Regulations Unconstitutiona

. f f ,.^^^.?^lu^"L^?'''l ""l ^^"^i?"^ ^'^""^ "^^^^ claimed for itself the right of judicial review and then found "un-
constitiitional the Student Council regulation requiring students who have not paid the Activities Fee to pav
admissions fees at all Student Union-sponsored events. * "^

The vote on the authority to rule Student Council legislation invalid was unanimous. The decision to find
the admissions fee regulation "unconstitutional" was by a 3-1 vote, Chief Justice Peter Levinson dissenting

The decisions, announced by Levinson at last Wednesday's Student Council meeting, came on a case

brought before the Board byj,
Morey Kahn '67, who had ob-

jected to paying $3.50 for ad-
mission to last week's Peter,
Paul and Mary concert.

Immediately after the read-
ing of the decision Council
voted 6-5 in favor of a motion
to continue the exclusion from
Union-sponsored activities of
all who do not pay the Activ-
ities Fee. Council thus ruled
that the Student Board of Re-
view possessed no authority of
judicial review.

The Council at the same time
made plans to submit to the
Student Union two proposed
amendments to the Constitu-
tion. (For text, see story on
this page.)

Following the Council meet-
ing, the Board declared that it
would allow an eight-day grace
period before their ruling was
to take eflect only if Council
voted to rescind its decision to
flout the decision in the test
case. Council at a later meet-
ing (Friday) accepted these
terms and the grace period be-

gan.

The reasoning of the Board,
as explained by Levinson, was
that the Student Board of Re-
view must protect the Constitu-
tional rights of the Student
Union members. The majority
of the Board felt that a ruling
in favor of the Student Council
would have established a dan-
gerous precedent whereby the

Council could wilfully restrict
Constitutional rights and priv-
ileges.

In order to insure the future
collection of Activities fee
money, the Board of Review
suggested an amendment to the
Student Union Constitution.

It. The other two are related to
the question of constitutional
review of Student Council leg-
islation, the subjerl of a Coun-
cil-Student Board of Review
conflict last week.

Council acted as a Commit-
tee of the Whole in approving
the proposals. Five of the pro-
posals were accepted unani-
mously. The amendment of
Article IV was approved by a
vote of 8-2, Bert Foer tJG and
Naomi Reice '65 dissenting

The texts of the proposals
and present articles of the con-
stitution follow:

Article II of the ronstiiution
shall be revised to read: "All
regularly matriculated under-
graduate students are niember<$
of the Brandeis University Stu-
dent Union. However, tho.se
students who have not paid the
Student Activities Fee may not
take part in or receive the pub-
lications of. or attend any of
the activities of any organiza-
tion which receives any finan-
cial support from the Student
Union unless they pay the es-
tablished price of entrance for
such activitity or the estab-
lished price of subscription of
said publication."

Article II now reads: "All
regularly matriculated under-
graduates currently in attend-
ance are members of the Bran-
deis University Student Union."

Article II shall include the
sentence "Those students that
do not pay the Student Activi-
ties Fee may not vote in refer-
enda affecting the distribution
of that fee."

(3) Article II of the Consti-
tution shall include the sen-
tence: "All members of the
Student Union retain the right
to vote in elections of any stu-
dent organization of which
they are members."

marvelled at the power of
mathematical reasoning.

We will begin with an in-

juniors, and one .senior, who will receive her diiiloma from
her former college.

The 25 transfer students at-* —

tended 23 different universities
last year, Boston University
and Bennington sending two
transfer students each. Ten of
the new students had ap|)lied
to Brandeis in previous years,
either as freshmen or as trans-
fer students.

Most of the transfer appli-
cants stated that they wanted
to attend Brandeis for educa-
tional reasons, in some cases
for specific cour.se offerings.
Five of the new students are
now p.sychology majors, three
are language majors, while the
rest are concentrating in twelve
other fields.

The transfer students ad-
mitted were selected from a
group of 225 applicants, repre-
senting 139 institutions. 23%
of the applicants attended pub-
lic, state or city-owned uni-
versities, and 62% applied from
privately-owned, four-year col-
leges. The remaining applicants
attended other types of insti-
tutions, including junior col-
leges and foreign universities.
20% of all the applicants had
applied to Brandeis previously.

ongs The Rule

As Rrandeis enters its third week of existence under
The Kule, all signs point to acquiescence. There is little
doubt at this juncture that the University is headed down
the primrose path of conformity.

This column exercised its prerogative two weeks ago
to note what we considered to be the general feeling of
the students as regards The Rule, and the associated issue
of the lack of student voice in environmental decisions. As
a matter of course, we recommended that the Student
Council plan to boycott dinner be endorsed as a first step
in the admittedly long process of obtaining a meaningful
voice on this campus, and perhaps eventually, doing away
with The Rule itself.

Criticism of the administration is no longer in order,
however, and a call for protest seems meaningless. The
Studenta have shown themselves to be an apathetic, un-
principled, conservative and lazy group. Why shouldn't
the administration take any steps it wants to, no matter

how restrictive? Perhaps the l*resident was right when
he stated last year that only a handi'ul of "irresponsible,
radical trouble-makers" really objected to his unilateral
decisions.

The Student Council took a commendable stand
when it voted 10-2 to organize weekly protests with the
intent of ensuring a strong student voice in environnuntal
decisions. The Council acted under what it considered to
be a mandate from the student body to protest and protest
strongly the actions of the administration.

This mandate was the result of a series of strenuous
activities which started last semester, at the first mention
of the now infamous **Open Door Policy." At that time,
more than 1000 students made it obvious by their time,
spirit, and effort, that they were totally opposed to The
Rule, and to the manner in which it was decreed. The
student council elections, held at the time, gave President
Steven Mora and the representatives a mandate to con-
tinue the fight until the students on this campus were
given a responsible and dignified degree of influence on
decisions affecting their own environment.

This is the baikground. then, which ltd to the Student
Council deeihion to protest. Tlie reaction of the students to the
plan was not only deirimental to tiieir own inlere.-ts; it was an
insult to many people who worked very hard, this year and
last, to ii.ainiain Biandeis as an unusual university, dedicated
to student growth, and not to big-school, big-money mediocrity.

That the Fieshman class seemed to be at the heart of the
anti-protest movement strikes us as Ironic. The total arrogance
involved in tneir opposition lies in their admitted lack of in-
formation about lasi year s arduous and heart-breaking pro-
tests, combined with their ambition to make themselves heard
(negatively) without ever having been assimilated into the
campus, or aware of its traditions (and there were some very
meaningful and creative traditions here).

We bid that section of the Freshman class which already
considers itself worldly-wise enough to act as a unified opposi-
tion to the Student Council and to the spirit of the protest, a
fond farewell. We liope that the more sensitive elements of the
ela.ss will at least give themselves the time to judge. Then
hopefully, they will choose to lend their talents and efforts to
the goal of gaining a voice on this campus. The Class of '68 has,
alter ail, the most to gain — and the most to lose.

The attitude of the upper-classmen is somewhat more
puzzling. Could four months of vacation have so dimmed the
spirit of last year that the missing of a veal-cutlets meal was
deemed too high a price to pay? Was the "self-governance"
addition to The Rule enough to convince them that they could
get around It. at the rxpen.se of the higher principle of student
voice at a liberal university?

The rationale that the student union should have been
consulted on the method of protest may hold water in another
context. But it was not sufficient cause to split the union from
the council, nor to break the back and the heart of the spirit
of the protest started last year. Surely the meal could have
been boycotted, and then decisions for the future protests be
made by the entire union.

No, we fear that laziness and lack of principle were behind
the apathy tliat Wednesday evening. It is a sad commentary on
young and supposedly idealistic students at a school like Bran-
deis, that the spirit behind such an important question died
so quickly.

Perhaps it is too late to call for a renewed protest. But
we implore the student body to remember that if they remain
an apathetic and lethargic bunch of unprincipled quibblers,
then this school will go the way of its conservatized administra-
tors And anyone who stands by inelTectively while this is hap-
pening deserves all the indignities and intrusions that those
administrators choose to heap upon him.

The Constitutional amendments proposed
by the Student Council for Student Union
approval are both just and necessary (See
news story and texts on page 1) . The amend-
ments limiting participation or attendance
at Student Union financed activities are
needed in order to provide positive incentive
for payment of the Student Activities Fee
and thus to provide the Union and its or-
ganizations a stable income.

At the same time, those students who
find it preferable to withhold payment of
the SAF and instead to pay for each event
and publication individually are not de-
prived of the privilege of gaining the bene-
fit of student-financed activities (they may
pay an admissions fee or purchase a sub-
scription when they consider that desira-
ble).

More importantly, another proposed
amendment states that these students will
not be deprived of their voting privileges
except in referenda directly concerning the
distribution of the money collected through
the SAF payments. To deprive non - Fee
paying students would be to sanction the

Comment ~~

regressive doctrine that allows only tax-
payers to vote.

The amendments concerning "constitu-
tional review" of Student Council legisla-
tion are similarly commendable. The au-
thority to declare a Student Council action
invalid is reserved explicitly for the Stu-
dent Union; and this is where the authority
belongs, since it is the Student Union that
has delegated legislative authority to the
Council. At the same time, the Student
Board of Review has been placed in the
important watch-dog position with respect
to the rights of students and the legality
of Council actions. The proposed amend-
ment states that the four-student Board of
Review may call a referendum to test the
validity of a Council action. This is clearly
a more efficient way in which to check
Council than exists at present; under the
present Constitution, a petition signed by
25' # of the members of the Student Union
must be completed in order to call a refer-
endum.

We urge all members of the Student
Union to vote in favor of the proposed
amendments.

The Party of the First Part

Bert Foer

Why should a Student Council Establishment of "radicals" continually gain
control of the course of student community affairs? Why should it twice be necessary
in one year for the student leadership to turn around to learn that it has few followers?
Why should this situation, in which the leaders don't really lead and the followers don't
really care to follow, go on from year to year? What can be done?

The cause of this leaderdship problem is apathy, an apathy which is traditional,
but useless to consider. What
kind of leadership can be ex-
pected, when most representa-
tives— I include myself — were

♦

put into office by less than 100
votes; when those who actually
took the energy to vote general-
ly did so because of personal
reasons rather than specific
campaign promises?

Campaigning

But this campaigning de-
ficiency has at its roots another
type of apathy, the cynical be-
lief that Student Council, be-
cause it does not have final
power over the University, is
a meaningless paper tiger, if
not a total waste of time. With
this attitude, why should any-
one worry about who is elect-
ed, much less consider running
for oflice (a nasty activity,
anyway) himself?

Mora-Stein election last year,
where there were basic differ-
ences in approach at stake,
these lines were shaded until
the differences were glazed
over and forgotten.

What is needed, then, is a
method of introducing these

Most importantly. Council

the entire campus. This is ex-
emplified not only in the crisis
atmosphere which it has main-
tained even after the period of changes: (1) More

Representation Problem

In short, the Student Council
does have powers which should
not be underestimated. And,
in order for it to utilize these
powers in a beneficial way, it
needs — requires — leaders who
have a con.'-tituency to work
from. A Vice-President who

I recommend, to facilitate
these changes, the oldest insti-

institution which has hitherto

IS that Council, despite its im-
potence on the over-riding is-

ing of much more respect. In
fact, it is steadily assuming a
greater role in the direction of
our daily campus lives. It now
collects the Activities Fee, dis-
tributes it, and imposes pen-
alties (such as high admission
prices) on those who won't go
along. It sets up the entire
housing program. It represents
the student body to the other
interests in the University and
to the Great Outside World. In

resentative who won less than
a quarter of his class's votes
cannot say he represents stu-
dent opinion. Reciprocally,
neither of these leaders must
reckon with the desires of
those who put him into office,
i.e., they are not "responsible."
What is more, even if these
"leaders" had majorities voting
for them, the chances are
strong that these majorities
would have had little idea of

Letters to the Editor

{Editors' Note: The joUowing
letter was received as an open
letter to the Student Council)

1 have been a member of the
Brandeis community for only
two short weeks. But already
I see several things which dis-
tress me about the student gov-
ernment. Brandeis is known
and was created as a liberal
institution. To me, this means
that any member of the student
body, the faculty, or the admin-
istration may express any
views on any subject without
fear of censure. It does not
mean to me that the Student
Council can demand that the
student body represented in it-
self be given an equal voice in
the running of this university
with the administration. A stu-
dent comes to Brandeis to study
under this liberal atmosphere,

but also he must realize that
he is subject to certain rules
and regulations.

Tripartite Council

The ideal of a tripartite
council is a wonderful idea.
But before it can be realized,
the student body must show
that it is ready for this great
responsibility. As I have heard
It, the student body has abused
what privileges they have been
granted. To take a case in
point, there is now much angry
discussion over the new parie-
tal hours rule. I would imagine
that there must have been some
cause for the administration's
imposing this rule. I don't know
what has happened during the
past few years on campus. I
can only recall my conversa-
tions with several students at
other colleges in the Boston
area. When I said that I was
attending Brandeis this next

year, the replies came: "Oh,
yes. There's a lot of prostitu-
tion out there," or "Oh! Free
Love U."

It may be true that a small
number of our fellow students
have spoiled it for the rest of
us, but it is up to us to re-
build the fine reputation we
once had. The new rule in
which advance notice must be
given of all social events in the
private rooms is a first step.
Later on these will be turned
to impromptu gatherings, and
eventually, there will be no
rules at all. But this can hap-
pen only if we can restore the
administration's trust in us. We
can not demand that we be
given back these privileges, we
must show that we are respon-
sible men and women first. This
is the only way that we can
ever achieve the ideal of a
tripartite governing body.

In order to appreciate the
pride Dr. Goldstein takes in
the development of Brandeis,
one must know something
about its beginning and its dif-

those with improper parking
permits or none at all from
parking in spaces on campus
reserved for other cars. They
are also supposed to exclude
what Mr. Abrams called "un-
desirable elements," such as
high sc'hool vandals, who have
bothered students and injured
university property in the past.
When an unknown car tries
to enter, the guard asks the
driver his purpose on campus.
Those who seem to lack a pro-

want to park without the cor-

without permission, according
to Mr. Abrams. If the driver
persists and enters the grounds
despite the guard's efforts, the
guard on duty should note the
license number and may call
Security or even the police, as
has been done several times
this year.

Each guard is supposed to
admit those who have a legiti-
mate reason for entering, in-
cluding cars picking up Bran-
deis dates. One guard said that
it was no problem in nearly
all cases to separate those who
had a good reason for entering
campus from vandals and other
undesirables. "You can spot a
college student a mile away by
the way they look and talk," he
said.

A Touch of the Poet, by Eugene O'lsTeill, is the first

Douce). In short, they have lost their innocence and spirit; excepting the isolated works greatest. But the characters are worth paying attention

The spirit of older Holly-
wood, the spirit of innocence,
exhuberance and fun that made
so many films work, seems to
have gone underground to the
new American cinema and
abroad to France. Here there
are not only great directors but
stars like Jeanne Moreau, Jean
Paul Belmondo and Jean Pierre

Shade of Fairbanks

The French have always loved
the American film (especially
the "B" picture) and the tech-
niques and cliches p>eculiar to
such genres as the gangster
film and the musical were
brilliantly reworked by such
artists as Francois Truffaut and
Jean Luc Godard. Now on view
are two reworkings of another
genre, the swashbuckling ad-
venture film. These thrived for
half a century with Douglas
Fairbanks and then his son and
then Errol Flynn; the genre
withered away and died with
Stewart Granger in the fifties,
under the reign of Metro-
Goldwyn-Mayer. It has been
revived by director Philippe de
Broca and Belmondo in two
gorgeous wide-screen, color
films, That Man from Rio (at
the Astor) and Cartouche (at
the Paris). (Watch out, they
may be dubbed in Boston.)

DeBroca is an appealing di-
rector who lacks genius, origi-
nality or a strongly individual
style. He is already known for
his three love comedies (The
Love Game, The Joker and The
Five Day Lover). His adven-
ture films are like his comedies,
sweet but without depth; they
are good imitations of their
models rather than ingenious
transformations; they look
backward rather than forward
or inward.

That Man . . .

That Man from Rio is pro-
bably the more inventive of the
two, since it ludicrously exag-
gerates the material so as to kid
it. Here Belmondo plays a true
innocent, a soldier on leave
who, when he sees his girl be-
ing kidnapped, doesn't even
think twice before jumping on
to the nearest motorcycle, fol-
lowing her to the airport and

the sophisticated gloss, m
which the hero is a hero and

Melody is exposed as a man
of shallow insight, who nour-
ishes his illusion at the expense
of an adoring wife. She is the
prototype of all women who
are compelled to love dreamers
and are victimized by their
dreams. Nora Melody happily

But there is brilliance in the
subtle balance of relationships

the tension and intricacy of the

ter are parallels, and the sym-

the dramatic focus of the play.

never appears. He is Simon

kee who has left home with

moving in some scenes, but flat
and occasionally just plain

And yet, wonderful as it is,
there is something irritating
about DeBroca's kidding of his
material. It is as though we
were all grown up and too old
to enjoy the genuine adventure
film .and thus, through these
tremendously exaggerated ad-
ventures, we are laughing at
our innocence in having once
been wraptup in these adven-
tures. In key with this attitude
is the presentation of the hero
as a simpleton. Amiable and
charming he is, but only an

and used to best advantage.
The arrangements that they use
are professional and well-con-
structed. Even their humor is
polished and professional.

This polish leads to one of
the group's key faults. The pro.
fessional, lehearsed sound is
wonderful for listening, but it
lacks any element of spontane-
ity. Even the jokes, which were
humorous, losi something by
being so obviously planned.
The audience was left with a
wonderfully enjoyable image,
but no real personality coming
through that image.

However, these drawbacks
are hardly noticeable at a P,
P, & M concert — even one
where you have to crowd to-
gether sitting on an uncomfort-
ably hard floor. The songs arc
outstanding. The versatility of
the performers was demon-
strated by the excellence of
such numbers as the touching
Springhill and the driving
Jesus Met the Woman.. Some-
times the group becomes pre-
occupied with the distinctive

Peter, Paul & Mary sound and
injured a beautiful song such
as Cuckoo by u.'^ing it for little
more than a vehicle. The song
that just didn't seem right 1o
me was their playful version of
San Francisco Bay Blues, but
then. I'm a devoted Jesse Ful-
ler fan.

Minor annoyances abounded
at the concert. Somebody had
the bad taste to sit there and
pass out literature for a politi-
cal cause that had no relation-
ship to the concert. The accous-
tics, although better than ex-
pected, still left a great deal to
be desired, especially on the
louder songs. The general in-
appropriateness of holding a
concert in a g>mnasium was in-
tensified by the lack of com-
fortable seating. Most annoying
of all was a poor piece of pl?n-
ning whereby almost all the
songs sung in the second half
of the concert were familiar
pices from their recordings. An
audience doesn't want to hear

(Continued on Page 7)

So Durrenmatt wrote a tragi-
comedy in which the implaus-
ible implies the real to the ex-
tent of tragedy. Satire is not
produced by a grotesquery of
the absurd but by distorting
the image of what is real so
slightly from the original that
it is like looking at two very
similar transparencies held to-
gether. The tightness and econ-
omy of action in Durreninall's
play, it lack of wasted motion,
insisting that all maneuvers be
functionally meaningful, pro-
duce an internal consistency
that has no trouble in proving
to us that it is tragic and close
to reality.

Movie Misses Point

In the Punch-and-Judy show
of the movie the method is
somehow reversed with con-
siderable loss. We are now to
be convinced of the sadness of
the world by wasted and some-
times grandiose motion which
never succeeds in becoming as
sublime as ofToring a hundrcHl
pound diamond to God as a

bribe, or in remaining as close
to the real as does the subtle
satire of the play.

The richest woman in the
world returns to her home
town which she left, dishon-
ored, at the age of seventeen,
and offers the impoverished
townfolk one billion marks if
they do her sufTicient justice
and put her old lover to death.
They react with indignation
and yet succeed in carrying out
her request against Serge (Al-
fred 111 in the original, Anton
Schill in the American produc-
tion) who has become one of
the most respected men in the
town of Gullen.

In the movie, Carla. the rich-
est woman in the world, brings
a cavalcade of trucks loaded
with Vespas and Fiats and tele-
vision sets to Gullen to tempt
the villagers. In the movie we
discover directly many events
which were effective in the play
precisely because we discover
them only through the eyes of
a single character The changes
in the townspeople are not so
blatant that we notice them be-
fore Serge does. In the play it
is Serge who discovers the
townspeople with new posses-
sions and because he is shocked,
so are we. The makers of the
movie seem to have assumed
that if the play didn't show
certain actions it is always be-
cause the producers could not
lit them on the stage.

Too Beautiful

The increase in gloss loads
the movie with a sense of waste
and of unnecessary beauty.
Ingrid Bergman is too beautiful
and too concupiscent and An-

thony Quinn remains too much
of a powerful m a 1 e to g i v e
their scenes together an appro-
priate tone. In a grappling
love scene in an old barn they
reenact the passion of their
youth but it is not the horrify-
ing imitation of the young by
the once beautiful. Rather it
is the rekindling of an old pas-
sion in those for whom passion
is still possible. One cannot
avoid the sensation that they
might become lovers again.

Carla Zachanassian has
bought the magistrate who had
long before turned her out of
Gullen. In the play, he is con-
stantly at her side as her butler,
both grand when he has to play

subservient when he waits on

Scanty Adaption

The adapters felt so unsure
of the ability of the plot to
sustain interest that they felt
constrained to include a sexy
sub-plot with a beautiful young
girl who is often scantily
enough dressed to provoke our
waning interest. And worst of
all Anthony Quin comes on as
such a powerful moral figure
that by the end of the movie he
is a tragic hero of huge propor-
tion; in the movie it is because

October 14, 19M

Berkeley Protest

(Continued from Page 3) ^

Well, at 3:00 p.m. they ap-
peared — with 698 other stu-
dents, in front of the Dean's
office. These other students had
signed a petition saying they
were equally respon.sibie for
the five's actions, and should
be punii^hed equally. Needless
to say, when the five names
were singled <»ut by the Dean's
secretary, none appeared. Tliose
five and the three others (by
the oak tree rally), were "in-
definitely suspended" All 600
spent the night in Sproul, and
were joined by a sympathetic
crowd of 1200 in the Plaza out-
side. By 11:00 a.m. the next day
the ranks of the crowd swelled
to 4000.

In the afternoon it was
helli.sh hot in the plaz:^, but
none left. A police car had
come in to arrest a demonstra-
tor seated at the table soliciting
funds for the demonstration. It
was immediately surrounded
by 1000 kids, and co'uldn't
move. The arrested guy. (not a
University student), was kept
inside the car. He was there
for 36 hours — never leaving
the car! He refused to move un-
less the crowd wanted him to.
Groups' Demands

The demands of the group
were: (1) release the guy
under arrest and reinstate the
eight suspended students; (2)
reinstate the Hyde Park area
(called Bancroft-Telegraph
area after the streets it bor-
ders on), as a free speech area
All sides spoke — the crowd
was in general very orderly —
if tired, hoi and smelly. About
5:00 p.m we sang for a while
to keep up spirit. I went home
at night, but after I left some
"Greeks" (frateri-.ity bastards)
came over to harass the demon-
strators by tossing lighted ciii-
arettes and eggs into the crowd.
About 2:00 a.m. they went
home.

Later I joined the crowd
of 3000 again Everyone was
still in good spirits. Meanwhile,
negotiations between faculty,
students and administration, in
every permutation and coml)i-
nation. had been going on for
two days and seemed doadend-
ed Tomorrow was Parent's
Day. and the university
couldn't afford to be embar-
rassed by a large group of pro-
testing demonstrators, an "un-
sightly mess" against Greek
pillars which signify nothmg
here So by this afternoon we
were warned to expect the
police any time.

A local radio stati(m helped
us by asking for contributions
for food, medicine and blank-
ets Everyone was supplied
with food atid drink (which
was quite a task). The organi-
zation was very efficient.
Last Meeting

About 6:00 p.m. the leaders
announced to a crowd of "^OOO-
500) (everywhere you could
see there were people), includ-
ing manv faculty members and
gr;Kl students, that the leaders
would meet with the adminis-
tration for the last time, and
that when the leaders returned
they would cither announce
that a compromise had been
reached or that the demon.stra-
tors would be taken away.

It was quite a solemn mo-
ment. Calmly, the leaders told
the demonstrators how to act
when arrested — go limp, pro-
tect faces from clubs, get the
badge number of anyone hitt-
ing you. All shoes were re-
moved and jewlery given to
two people to guard. Pierced
earrings were removt^d and so
were glasses. Then everyone
settled back and waited for
arrest or action. We were all
surrounded by the poHce.

We waited for two hours. We
got bulletins from a phone con-
nected to the negotiations room.

At one point a message released
said all was going well — then
badly — then silence. Then
there was an announcement
that the area (about one quar-
ter square mile, filled with
people) was being cordoned
off, and everyone inside, (in-
cluding faculty), were subject
to arrest anytime. Everyone
was very determined; this was
the critical moment; no one
would leave.

We were being jeered at by
200 Greeks, some who had
sticks, who wanted to start a
riot. Feelings ran very high,
everyone was very tired, but
there was a strong feeling of
solidarity and of the necessity
to keep order. It seemed very
macabre — as if it belonged
to another world — that 5000
people had to offer themselves
for sacrifice to keep freedom
of speech in a university in this
country.

We were people of differing
backgrounds and purpose, yet
we were united behind this
issue, and determined. The
buildings, silhouetted in the
dusk, were covered with people
who looked like little spines
on some immense animal skin.
Son.e policemen went into the
center of the seated group, and
in doing so stepped on some
demonstrators. The crowd stood
still, but a low-toned, menacing
"boo" went up. But the police-
men didn't do anything.

Leaders Return

It was almost dark when the
leaders returned. As they re-
turned tliere was a roar in the
distance, like the sound of
tanks, that grew nearer and
nearer. I have never felt so de-
termined yet so trapped in my
life, and from the looks on the
people's faces near me, this
feeling was shared. They were
coming to get us. We wouldn't
move, wouldn't resist, yet it
seemed so solemn yet so sense-
less in this world of relative
"order and security" that it
didn't seem real.

A complete silence settled
over the throbbing crowd. The
leaders spoke. It was better
than we had hoped for — a
workable compromise, maybe.
The leaders had agreed that,
with agreement of the demon-
strators, the crowd would dis-
band until Monday noon when
the leaders would discuss and
answer questions on this com-
promise ,and the student body
would vote (informally, I
think) on it.

The crowd was restless but
upon hearing the compromise,
began to disperse very slowly.
The 500 policemen (official
news tally), adorned with hel-
mets, clubs. SS storm-trooper
tyoe black boots, and various
other equipment, slowly dis-
persed also.

I can't convey to you the
uni^sual feeling of seeing so
many different groups at Ber-
keley united behind one issue.
In a small school one gets this
feeling often, luit here it is
usually entirely impersonal.

scale in a way which individ-
uals, particularly Brandeis in-
dividuals, cannot. It can or-
ganize, advertise, magnetize,
and, in sum, vitalize the insti-
tution of student government.

Party politics can bring to
the top the best we have in
leadership. A party, to win,
must present qualified candi-
dates: it doesn't have to pre-
sent the individual with the
most personal contacts or the
biggest name; for a party, with
its party workers, will be able
to campaign on a large scale
for its slate.

A party, to win. however,
must present more than candi-
dates; it must present a plat-
form, an approach to solving
the problems that its candi-
dates, if elected, will face. This,
in turn, will stimulate thought,
not only on the part of the
voters, who would be offered a
choice ("not an echo"), but on
the part of those who must
prepare a platform which is
realistic and will win votes.
Opinion Divided

Brandeis is fortunate in not
having fraternities, which
would end up vying for the
honor of placing its candidates
in office. Campaigns here could
be run on issues rather than
on fraternal or personal con-
tacts. Our situation, however,
presents one problem, which
is perhaps the explanation for
the lack of a party system in
the Brandeis past. Namely,
around what principles could
opjKJsing parties be formed?

It seems to me that a schism
of student opinion now exists,
and that this schism will not
grow smaller. It splits the stu-
dent body into two general
groups, variously designated as
radicals and conservatives,
idealists and pragmatists. old
Brandeisians and new Bran-
deisians. The schism divides
those who want to continue to
protest, who don't want to
work with the Administration,
who won't vary an iota from the
wording of the Activities Fee
requirements of olden times
from those who recognize the
uselessness of continuing pro-
test, who want an atmosphere
of academia instead of war,
who perhaps wish to broaden
the possibilities of financing
campus events. Although the
ultimately desired ends for the
students and for the University
do not seem to be in question,
it is the important questions of
means which now divide stu-
dent opinion. What we must
decide is whether this division
is significant enough to war-
rant the introduction of parties
dedicated to alternative pol-
icies.

Arouse Students

If the theoretical division is
recognized, the rest could real-
istically be expected to follow.
Those of us who favor the more
pragmatic approach (and who
are out of power) could meet
to settle our ground rules and
to form a platform. This would
then be circulated, and all who
agree with it and would work
for it could meet to choose can-
didates. The party would then
stand behind its candidates in
an attempt to win control over
Council. Using the dialectic,
one might imagine that the
Establishment would out of ne-
cessity form a party of its own,
although this very idea re-
minds one of the infamous slo-
gan, "Solipsists of the world,
unite." From this point, wheth-
er the Establishment organizes
or not, we could move to a
lively, meaningful campaign
which would arouse the stu-
dents to pl^y an active role in
their own government.

he is different from the rest of
the people in the town, in the
play whatever heroic stature
he gains is due him because he
is the same.

Durrenmatt calls Clara a
woman "whose fortune has put
her in a position to act like the
heroine of a Greek tragedy;
absolute, cruel, something like
Medea." How un-Greek the
ending of the movie is! The
whole movie up to this point
has convinced us that nothing
in Gullen is inflexible and in-
evitable. How are we to be-
lieve in the inevitable machin-
ery of tragedy when Serge does
not die?

The movie is vulgar and I
think that even if I had not
read the play I would have
failed to be moved by the
quantity of cinematic bull-
dozers which the movie em-
ploys; in any case you must
pardon me for the sin of having
read the play before I saw the
movie.

Elliot Evans, summarized their
stand in this way: "We feel
that the students, as responsi-
ble individuals, are mature
enough to deal with problems
of this nature, rather than sim-
ply leaving the job to the Stu-
dent Council. Secondly, we
hoped to demonstrate the ne-
cessity for the Student Union
— meaning all students — to re-
evaluate the social and political
situation at Brandeis and to
begin a complete revision of
the existing Student Union
Constitution."

them about unions and farmers'
cooperatives and Federal Pro-
grams. It is not always easy to
do what must be done. But as
you make the effort, the mean-
ing becomes clear of the line
you heard long ago: "I am
only one, but I am one." There
is a certainty, when you are
working in Mississippi, that it
is important for you to be alive
and to be alive doing just what
you are doing. And whatever
small bit we did for Mississippi
this summer, Mississippi did
ten times as much for us.

Working in Mississippi has
given me a clarity about what
I want to be learning in college
that three years of studying in
Widener Library could not
give. Now that I have taught,
I know what 1 want to learn
about teaching. Now that I
have worked with people to
change the society in which
they live, I know what I want
to learn about societies and
how other people have changed
theirs. Now that 1 have shown
students horizons of books and
other countries and new ideas,
I want to explore these hori-
zons more myself. 1 plan to go
back to Radcliffe in February.
Is This Hell?

I guess the thing that pulls
me back most are the loving
people wiio made us a part of
their community. People I
knew in Mississippi could
honestly and unselfconsciously
express affection in a way that
few people 1 know in the
North are able to do. They did
not have to be "cool" or "one
up" or careful." The last night
I was in Mississippi I wrote,
"How can 1 tell them up North
it's hell in Mississippi?" And
then 1 answered myself by say-
ing, "Here I have felt more
love, more sympathy and
warmth, more community than
I have known in my life. One
may argue that it is 'the sys-
tem' that causes it — that this
community is a defense against
oppression. But even if it is, is
not this the most important
thing there is? Here in Meridi-
an there is life and life
abundantly. How can I say it is
hell?"

(Co7}tinucd from Page 5)

Belmondo combines the in-
nocence and warmth of his man
from Rio with the swagger and
audacity of his by now classic
Michel of Breathless. In addi-
tion there is Claudia Cardinale
who, as a rustic wench, I find
far more appealing than the
over-powered fashion model
beauty of 8/',r and Pink Pan-
ther. Finally, there arc a couple
of scenes, toward the end which
are strikingly beautiful in color
and composition and almost
poetic in effect.

Breathless Antics

In a way, both films seem to
belong more to their star than
to their director because they
are both imbued with the
swaggering, gentle and modern
spirit that is peculiarly Bel-
mondo's; one emerges from the
theatre more than with a unify-
ing conception of the film as a
whole. For Belmondo is one of
those extraordinary stars who
can carry a film even under
weak direction, simply by dis-
playing his personality in all
its facets. He can carry a scene
with a child (as in Man from
Rio) with an innocent, almost
Chaplinesfjue air as smoothly
as he seduces women. He is
talented in acrobatics (he docs
his own stunt work) as well as
in character portrayal. When
he is well cast in a great film
as in Breathless he is brilliant;
when he is miscast in a bad
film as in Two Women he car-
ries the job ofT heroically. He is
all the characters he plays and
he is still Belmondo with the
exuberant body and the tough
warm face; he is a star who
can also act; he is an actor who

On the Latin Beat — II

(Continued from Page 3)

One of the more interesting
aspects of the Revolution is its
seeming willingness to permit
a large degree of cultural, ar-
tistic, and literary freedom. A
few years ago, afraid of what
they believed was the immi-
nent imposition of socialist
realism, a number of writers
and intellectuals asked Castro
to define the cultural policy of
the government. "Within the
Revolution, everything; outside
the Revolution, nothing," he
replied. While there is no guar-
antee that such permissiveness
will continue — and the Russian
experience, for one, argues elo-
quently against it — there is ev-
ery indication that, in this area
as in others, Castro's word is
the government's program. So
long as one does not criticize
the Revolution — a restriction
which is, of course, not to be
minimized — one is free to cre-
ate in the form and manner one
chooses. At the old Country
Club in Havana, now a national
school of art, I was shown an
exhibit of student paintings
which had a fair share of what
can only be termed avant garde
creations.

Literarily, the publication of
new books and the re-issue of
old ones has been, in the com-
munist context, no less bizarre.
Jose Rodriguez Feo, the head
of the National Publishing
House and a former classmate
of Norman Mailer's at Harvard,
told me that he was about to
publish a collection of Kafka's
short stories.

In fact, for those who are
apolitical, the Revolution has
been something of a cultural
boom. Ricardo P o r r o, a 39-
year-old architect who has
studied in both the U. S. and
Europe, is typical of such men.
I met Mr. Porro at the old
Country Club where a number
of buildings he had designed
were in the process of comple-
tion. Each one was for a sep-
arate division of the national
art school and the boldness of
his imagination ("I wanted to
do something creative in a Cu-
ban way ■) was magnificent to
behold. Though Mr. Porros
salary of $450 a month was far
less than a man of his talents
could command elsewhere, he
was quite emphatic on what lie
felt were the advantages of the
Revolution. "Before 1959," he
said, "I had a strong fight
against prostitution in architec-
ture. Unless you were very
famous and could thus do as
you pleased it was impossible
to make real art since you al-
ways had to do what your cli-
ents wanted you to do. Now
we have absolute freedom of
expression. Take these school
buildings for example. They
wanted tlie most beautiful and
modern buildings 1 could build
and that is what I tried to give
them."

Yet. despite the relative lax-
ity of the regime, much of what
passes for Cuban art seems to
be designed for the primary
purpose of political indoctrina-
tion. A joint Russian-Cuban
film about the evils of life un-
der Batista, Soy Cuba, was so
heavy-handed that at one point
even the audience began to
laugh. A series of prolonged
vignettes which portrayed
American as tourists intent on
.sex and sailors bent on rape,
the film .seemed almost a par-
ody of its propagandistic genre.

But compared to the surreal-
istic newsreel which preceded
it, it was quite tame. A weird
melange of past and present,
the "newsreel" started out as
a docum.entary on the rlaimrd

had barely finished his funeral
oration when President Ken-
nedy could be seen riding
through the streets of Dallas
on that fateful day last Novem-
ber. Right after his assassina-
tion, in quick three-second
clips, came shots of Hitler
speaking, a Ku Klux Klan rally,
Nazi storm troopers, Senator
Goldwater over the slogan
"Goldwater es la g u e r r a"
(Goldwater is war), a German
concentration camp, New York
police beating Negro demon-
strators. Hitler speaking, and a
John Birch society meeting.
The import of the film seemed
to be that Kennedy had been
assassinated by right wing
fanatics and that the U. S. was
in the grip of a fascist conspir-
acy.

A trip to some of the bigger
bookstores in Havana, and a

casual look at some of the
smaller ones in Santiago,
proved even more depressing.
About 80% of the available
books were obscure Commu-
nist tracts that even a professor
of Marxism would find dull.
There was a sprinkling of Chi-
nese literature but while some
have suggested that Castro may
be the man to rehabilitate
Trotsky, there were no Trotsky-
ist publications in sight. Al-
though a few American books
could be found in translation—
notably Steinbeck's Grapes of
Wrath and Twain's Hucklc-
berry Finn — the only ones I
could find in English were Hy-
pothalmus Control of the An-
terior Pituitary and Absorp-
tion Spectra in the Violet and
Visible Region: a Theoretical
and Technical Introduction.

THE JUSTICE

October 14, 1964

On the Judges Bench

Forward Progress

.Pete Weiner

IVrliaps this university needs a new base for its social life.
Intramurals are an important way of crcatinj^ tiiis new base. At
most universities in the Boston area, notably xMIT. Tufts, Boston
University. Northeastern and venerable Harvard, fraternities or
house systems form the center of social life and intramural
athletics. At Brandeis we have neither fraternities nor houses.
So the next best step is organization on the dormitory level.

Intramural dorm teams will help create greater cohesion
within the various dormitories. This is extremely important at
Brandeis where student apathy is rather alarming. At present
there is no unifying factor within the dormitory. There is a
school of individualistic students devoted to academics. Bran-
deis students do not have any constructive school spirit. The only
manifestation of a student's connection with the university is
the attempt to protest against the administration.

The newly created Men's Intramural Council will help
foster unity within the dormitories by organizing intramurals
on a dormitory basis. This is the most important concept of the
reorganized intramural program. Perhaps this will not be possi-
ble until next year. But it is essential to an elYective intramural
program and will create the basis for further social reorganiza-
tion.

The intramural council began operation two weeks ago un-
der a set of regulations approved by the ten eager representa-
tives. The council's function is to develop and administrate the
intramural program. Students now have a voice in the operation
and extent of the activities. Intramurals are run for the benefit
of the student body and should be run by the students.

The council plans many new sports for the coming year. This
Friday the council is sponsoring an intramural cross-country
meet during half-time of the Brandeis-Babson soccer game.
Other new sports include tennis tourneys, ping-pong and spring
track. Holdover sports include flag football, basketball, volley-
ball, bowling and softball.

The flag football season began in earnest last week with
a full slate of games. New this year are Saturday football
games alleviating the problems of forfeits, labs, classes, con-
flicts, etc. The football program will run through Nov. 4. A total

of 13 teams will play six games apiece.

In the opening games of the '64 season Bio-Chem dominated
intramural flag football play as they scored two easy victories.
Bio-Chem defeated Shapiro Bl 30-0 and toppled the Avengers
24-6. Fran Stol/.enbach and Dan Barker led Bio-Chem scoring
once apiece in each contest. Joe Perkins made the lone tally for
the Avengers.

Les Grands Prix whipped Peter and the Wolves 8-0 and
tied the Students 6-6. In other action Deroy sent Peter and the
Wolves to their second defeat with a 12-0 victory. Shapiro A

The Brandeis lacrosse team opens fall practice this week
as the sport enters its third and most glorious year at this in-
stitution. The team has made great strides since its inception and
will do considerably better this year under the able tutelage
of Matt Sgan. Last year a large number of freshmen and upper-
classmen, feeling a sudden need to sublimate and displace
anxieties which somehow appeared last spring, tried out for the
team.

This season the team has new uniforms and new equipment
to help strengthen their image. A fall schedule of practices on
Tuesday and Thursday afternoons at 4 o'clock will begin on
Oct. 15.

THE

CLOCK

The Judges evened up their
record with a 6-2 triumph over
Barrington College of Rhode
Island at Gordon Field Tues-
day. Brandeis rebounded from
last weeks' losses as they took
an early 2-0 lead against the
defending Southern New Eng-
land conference champions.

Senior halfback Dan Obasun
paced the winning attack with
a brace of goals and an assist.
Co-Capt. Dimitri Mavros tal-
lied a goal and a pair of assists.

Brandeis goalie Sheldon
Glass and George Richardson
of the visitors each turned
aside 10 shots.

The game was a rather slop-
py affair. Tiie Judges moved
ahead 2-0 as Bob Bersson
scored on a pass from Mavros.
Cadman Mills added another
one minute later on a penalty
kick.

The Judges kept the ball near
the Barrington goal through-
out the first half but missed
numerous scoring opportuni-
ties. Barrington made it 2-1 in
the second period as Buyoon
Chung beat Glass on a penally
kick.

Jud[>:es Roll

Brandeis kept up their at-
tack in the third period as
Chris McLaughlin and Dan
Obasun tallied to raise the toll
to 4-1. The Judges played an
impressive second half as the
team clicked. The booters
passed and set up plays as the
ofTensive line continuously har-
assed the Barrington goalie.

The final Brandeis goals
came in the fourth period on
shots by Obasun and Mavros.
The Judges consistently out-
shot, outran, and outhustled
their weaker opponents. The
second string played well as
they made their first appear-
ance as a unit this season.

The Judges face Babson this
Friday in a home contest
against a strong Babson team.
Coach Hughes commented:
''We've met our toughest ♦'^«^*
again««

By PETE WEINER

Norm Savage and Jon Bern-
stein all were out with injuries.

Brandeis scored at 10:15 of
the first period as Pete Barnett
scored on a pass from Chris
McLaughlin. The Judges held
the lead for nine minutes as
Abou Sylla of Colby tied it up
at 1-1 after taking a lead pass
from Colby Captain Dave Kel-
ley at 19:35.

Kelley, playing inside left,
put Colby ahead in the second
period, tallying at 0:38. The
Colby captain scored again in
the third period on an unassist-
ed goal. Rick Zimmerman
added the finishing touches at
5:41 of the fourth period with
an assist from Charlie McLen-
non.

Shelly Glass, the Brandeis
goalie, played a fine game as
he made 20 saves. Glass, in-
jured in the BU game, plaved
with a bad hip but still was
aggressive througout the con-
test. Chris CcLaughlin kept the
Judges offense rolling as he
hustled and fought every min-
ute. Dave Fleischaker. playing
with a bad foot, and Pete Bar-
nett were also standouts for
the Judges.

Colby, sporting a 3-1 record,
played rough, hard soccer to
the delight of the partisan
hometown crowd. Coach
Hughes was rather dismayed
with the officiating but voiced
hope for the upcoming two-
game homestand. "The spirit

is good. The lx)ys want to get
out there and win. We have
played our toughest games and
we came out rather unscathed.

Terriers Win

The BU game, a televised af-
fair, was a rather dismal con-
test. The Terriers pulled out
to an early 2-0 lead in Lhe first
period as George Karalexis
scored twice, at 4:50 and 13:40.
Paul Sow made it 3-0 as he
beat Goalie Shelly Glass at
14:45 of the third period.

Cadman Mills broke the ice
for Brandeis as he tallied on
a penalty kick at 17:00 of the
third period. Paul Sow scored
again on an unassisted play for
BU at 17:45. The Judges scored
their final goal at 2:30 of the
fourth period as Bob Bersson,
a freshman, ripped the ball into
the BU nets as he took a pass
from Cadman Mills. BU fin-
ished the scoring as Biguria
pumped a pass from Katango
Chongo past the Brandeis
goalie, Dave Epstein.

Epstein, co-captain of the
Brandeis basketball team
played goal for the Judges after
the regular goalie, Shelly
Glass, was injured. Epstein
made ten saves in his 1964 soc-
cer debut. Bob Bersson played
a fine game for Coach Hughes
at outside left. He tallied once
for the Judges.

Referendum Defeats Amendment

To

Give Union Judicial Power

The Student Union, votinpr in referendum, soundly defeated by a 321-157 vote
an amendment to the constitution that watild give the Union jurisdiction over consti-
tutional questions.

The Union approved eigrht other amendments Riving Student Council the author-
ity to collect the Student Activities Fee and to bar from Council-sponsored activities
all students who have not paid the fee.
The constitutional questions

arose out of a case before the
Student Board of Review two
weeks ago. At that time the
Board ruled that Council did
not have the authority to bar
students who have not paid the
activities fee from Council
sponsored events. The amend-
ments were designed to over-
rule the Board on this matter.

Council felt that the consti-
tution was ambiguous in grant-
ing the iK)wer of constitutional
review. The Board felt that
the power of the judiciary gives
it the right of review. Con-
trary to the report of last week,
the Board never agreed to post-
pone execution of its order and
Council never repealed its de-
cision to disregard the Board's
power . Amendments nine and
ten were designed to strip the
Board of the review power by
giving the power to the Union
at large. A vote against the
amendments is considered a

vote for the Board The amend-
ments were defeated.

Steve Mora, President of
Student Council, said that
Council will soon present con-
stitutional amendments grant-
ing the Board of Review the
power of constitutional review.

dum follow:

Herbert Marcuse Resigns;
To Join LaJolla Faculty

Herbert Marcuse, professor of Politics and Philosophy,
has announced that he will resign at the end of this
academic year to accept a post at the University of Cali-
fornia at La Jolla.

Professor Marcuse has been offered a three year
contract at La Jolla which is effective from 1965-1968. His
tenure at Brandeis would have-
expired in June, 1966. when

Plan Formulated For
Tripartite Government

student Council formulated a rough draft of a plan
for a joint student-faculty-administration university gov-
ernment at its meeting last Wednesday.

The proposed tripartite government plan will be dis-
cussed tomorrow at a Student Union meeting. The i)lan is
a ix)sition statement by Student Council. The Council ex-
pects the final agreement to be

Reservoir Acquired
As Student Union Site

Brandeis has acquired the reservoir adjacent to the
library and the nearby concrete water tower from the
City of Waltham. The acquisition will cost the University
about $1()(),<)00. A new student union building will be
constructed at the reservoir site.

In exchange for the reservoir and water tower, the

University will dismantle the

obsolete water standpipe be-
hind Goldin^j and replace it
with a larger one on the hill
above Golding This will cost
$100,000. The University plans
to construct a $3,500,000 stu-
dent union building where the
reservoir is now situated.

Brandeis offered to build the
new standpipe becau.se it felt
the present one inadequate to
meet the needs of Cedarwood
and the science quad during the
summer. It also wanted to re-
compense the city for the reser-

he reaches the mandatory re-
tirement age of 68. Dr. Marcuse
requested a guarantee from
Dean of Faculty Leonard Levy
that his contract would be ex-
tended to meet the 1968 date
set by La Jolla. His request was
denied.

Although the La Jolla con-
tract includes a significant raise
in salary, Dr. Marcuse made it
clear that the monetary issue
was "of secondary importance."

Brandeis University faculty
regulations note that a teach-
er's tenure may be extended
between the ages 68 and 70 by
a special action of the Presi-
dent and the Board of Trustees.
No guarantee that this action
would be taken in Professor
Marcuse's case was granted
him.

Throughout his years at
Brandeis. Dr. Marcuse, one of
the world's foremost authori-
ties on Marxist and Hegelian
philosophy, has been an ex-
citing and controversial figure.
He has given courses on politi-
cal theory, Marxist thought, the
philo.sophy of Kant and Hegel,
and the warfare state.

chide Kros and Civilization.
Reason and Revolution and
One-Dimensional Man. Dr.

Marcuse has long been the
center of the History of Ideas

merous students have come to
Brandeis to study with him.

row at having to leave "my
students and friends on the fac-
ulty and my faithful Sada."

PROFESSOR MARCUSE

75 Attend First
In Series of
Special Dinners

The first of a planned series
of family style meals was held
last Saturday in Kutz Dining
Hall. The dinner, served by
waiters chosen from among the
participants in the program,
was attended by more than
seventy-five students despite
heavy rain.

The idea of the meal was to
provide a change from the
routines of c a f e t e r i a style
dining. On the menu were
fresh fruit cocktail, salad, a
choice of chicken mandarin or
broiled iialibut. vegetables, and
ice cream with strawberries.
Each table was also provided
with rolls, pickles, and a bot-
tle of chilled imported wine.

a compromise based on this
plan. On Friday the Union will
decide in referendum whether
it approves of tripartite govern-
ment in principle and whether
it grants negoliatory power to
Council based on the plan. Stu-
dents are not being asked to
approve the plnn itself.

The Council has already re-
quested a meeting with the ad-
ministration to discuss tripar-
tite government. Students will
have the opportunity to ap-
prove any final tripartite agree-
ment reached during di.scus-
sion v/ilh the administration
and faculty.

The basic idea of the plan
is to set up a university gov-
ernment with control equally
divided between the adminis-
tration, the faculty and the stu-
dent body. This council will
rule on all matters that pertain
to the school in general. Mat-
ters involving only one of the
groups will also be dealt with
directly by that group. Special
provisions will be made for
problems, such as parietal
hours, dealing chiefly with one
group, but which involve the
other groups as well.

The proposal, as drafted by
Bert Foer '66 reads:

Preface: In proposing this
arrangement for a University
Government, we affirm our
deep commitment to the ideal
of a liberal university as a com-
munity of scholars working
closely together not only in the
pursuit of knowledge, but in

Herbert Ma reuse

Herbert Marcuse, perhaps the most brilliant man ever
to have ^aced the Brandeis campus, will not be here
alter this year.

A rule stating that faculty members lose their tenure
upon reaching,' the a^^e of 68, along with the administra-
tion's refusal to guarantee (as has La Jolla College) Dr
Marcuse a place here until 1968, are the causes for the
professor's departure.

Evidently no one is immune from the callousness
associated with the Brandeis administration. The students'
problems pale, however, in the face of the indignity visited
upon a man of Dr. Marcuse's stature.

Surely in this case. Faculty Dean Levy and President
Sachar could have been flexible and granted the professor
what La Jolla has offered. (Discussion of the salary raise
which the California school offered wasn't even the issue
here.) But in a bureaucratic set-up such as we have at
this school, personalities are never at issue. Expendibility
Js the universal virtue, from the lowliest student to a man
like Professor Marcuse.

The students who have had the privilege of coming
into contact with Herbert Marcuse can console themselves
only with the thought that the author of such works as
One Dimensional Man will have an influence on men's
minds for years to come. Bureaucrats and their rules, on
the other hand, are sadly ephemoral things.

Art for Art's Sake

Every spring Brandeis University names several
artists, musicians, sculptors, etc. to receive its annual
Creative Arts Awards. The presentation of the awards,
each ol which is accompanied by a $1,000 prize, is made
at a dinner held in a New York hotel. The winning artists
do not necessarily have anything else to do with the Uni-
versity.

The presentations are still seven months in the future,
but we would like to make a suggestion about them now
before final plans are made.

Now we would not like to detract from the pleasure
derive<l by the ''friends of Brandeis" who gaze upon the
award winners and hear their words at the annual New
York dinner. We would like to suggest, however, that the
students and faculty members of the University could
derive a substantial benelit from campus visits by the
artists chosen lor the awards. Artists like Aaron Copland,
could certainly contribute to the development of Brandeis
art, creative writing or music students if they were given
the opportunity to ol^serve and to comment. Perhaps even
more benefit couid be deiived by Brandeis students and
professors were they given the oppc.rtuiiity to discuss with
the artists the works that have brought them respect and
recognition or the philosophy behind n particular style of
painting (or composing or dancing etc.)

The award dinner is, no doubt, a pr(»fitablo arrange-
ment for the University. Bringing the honored artists to
campus for several days should not detract from its earn-
ing iK^wer, however, since the dinner could still be arranged
in New York, either following or preceding the trip to
campus.

The New York dinner represents just one of a number
of "arrangements" that have been made with no concern
of what IS best for the students attending the University.
Bringing the artists to campus would be a step toward
making Brandeis a University, not merely a self-perpetu-
ating financial concern.

The four students who sit as the Student
Board of Ucview annouiiced 2 wCvks ago
that they are ready, willing and able to rule
on the validity of legislation passed by the
Student Council. We are not enthusiastic
about this extrapolation of the Student
Union Constitution.

The judicial authority of the Student Union
shall be exercised by the Brandeis l^niversity
Student Board of Review. Its jurisriction shall
extend to areas granted to it by the Faculty
and approved by the Student Union as specified
IB Article v section Z paragraph d.

Student Union Constitution, Art. 9

(Article v section 2 paragraph d states
that the Student Union must approve all
new rules and regulations affecting mem-
bers of the Student Union before these may
be permanently included within the juridic-
tion of the Student Board of Review.)

The granting of "judicial authority" in
this article does not imply the granting of
the power of judicial review, in spite of
the ease with which Supreme Court prece-
dents have been bandied about recently.

The Student Board of Review is, in fact,
a creation of the Student Council and the
Administrative Committee. Its purpose is
to carry out, for the Administrative Com-
mittee, the distasteful task of meting out
petty punishments for violations of rules
no less petty. This same Administrative
Committee reserves for itself the authority
to determine what violations are to be con-
sidered by the four students sitting as the
Student Board of Review and which viola-
tions are to be considered by the Adminis-
trative Ommittee.

So long as this condition exists, the Stu-
dent Board of Review will bear more of a
resemblance to a Small Claims Court, whose

Speaking Out

jurisdiction is careiully defined and limited
by officials more powerful, than to a
"Supreme Court" whose decrees are backed
by considerable political and physical torce

It appears, in fact, that the Administra-
tive Committee is intent on maintaining the
control of student affairs in its own hands
The way in which the new dormitory rules
were promulgated is far more significant
in this respect than the shoddy attempt
to hide the distasteful enforcement behind
a "self-governance" mask. So long as the
Board of Review remains essentially power-
less the more qualified students will seek
positions on Council rather than on the
Board, and thus leave the Board with its
usual dearth of leadership and respect. It
would be clearly inappropriate to authorize
an institution of this sort to pass judge-
ment on the validity of legislation passed
by Council.

Furthermore, as the constitution now
stands, the Student Union may declare in-
valid any motion passed by Student Council,
and may also defeat amendments proposed
by Council. The process, through |)etition
and referendum, is clearly defined in the
Constitution.

Clearly, we believe that the Student Union
made a mistake in voting down the proposed
amendments limiting the right of judicial
review to the Student Union and the amend-
ment ervabling the Board of Review to briiig
a referendum before the Union. The last would
permit the Board to act as a watchdog in guard-
ing the rights of students. At the same lime,
the amendment would prevent the four students
who form the Board from usurping a power
that properly belongs to the Student Union.
We consider the amendment to be a fair com-
promise and would like to see an effort made
lo pass an amendment similar to it.

Letters to the Editor

The Grey Flannel Matters

The officers of the junior class have announced the im-
position of dress regulations (jacket and tie) for Saturdays
folk concert. Now we would consider clearly unfair the imposi-
tion of dress regulations forbidding students to wear jackets
and ics to folk concerts. Although the rule announced is
exactly the opposite in substance — any manner of dress
except ties and jackets" is forbidden — the inju.stice of the
rule IS ]ust as clear: a pattern of dress has been imposed on all
students who wish to attend.

Any logic that could support the imposition of these regula-
tions at a folk concert could also support the imposition of
similar regulations with regard to cla.ss attendance and dining
hall meals — but we are confident that the junior class officers
have not yet joined the growing group that can proclaim "Some
Of our best friends are charcoal -grey jackets."

We are writing in reply to
the letter from Daniel Tobin to
editor in the October 14 Jus-
tice. He urges students "to
show that we are responsible
men and woinen" until •"even-
tually there will be no rules
at all." If what he means by
responsibility is adherence to
University rules, then it fol-
lows that when there are no
rules, there will be no responsi-
bility. But responsibility in-
volves more than adhering to
the rules set by the University
administration. For responsi-
bility is an individual quality.
It is an individual commitment
to the development of a well-
defined set of values, a com-
mitment to live in accord with
and accept the consequences of
these values.

We don't claim to know what
rules should be established for
students at Brandeis, but we

do feel that each student should
work at developing standards

\?L^.'T''^^' ^^ Brandeis, stu-
dents have no voice in deter-
niin.ng what the campus rules

that they should not attempt to
question rules at Brandeis.
Neither should they stop at-
tempting to gain an equal voice
in making rules. Daniel Tobin
says that because Brandeis is a
liberal institution, it does not
follow "that the Student Coun-
cil can demand that the student
body represented in itself be
given an equal voice in the run-
ning of the university with the
administration." We feel that
by ignoring the individual com-
mitment to seeking for new
values and questioning present

«"ifn; -^^ ^^^ misinterpreted
what It means to develop re-
sponsibility.

Also objection to the present
rule on visiting hours does not
necessarily involve flouting re-
sponsibility. It may result

from a serious attempt to ques-
tion certain social standards
and to develop more meaning-
ful values on one's own. We
feel that Daniel Tobin should
not have given credit to those
who called Brandeis "Free
Love U" or said "Oii, yts.
There's a lot of prostitution out
there." Such a slander against
Brandeis students only reveals
the ignorance of those who
made it. It results from hear-
say and not from any attempt
to understand the real nature
of the conflict at Brandeis.
Thoughtful opposition to the
rule involves a commitment to
responsibility. And those who
want to get rid of the rule by
merely acquiesing to it are just
as irresponsible to themselves
as those who want to get rid
of the rule by openly violating
it.

On the Latin Beat

III

By STEVEN SOLARZ

EDITOR'S NOTE: Mr. Solarz, a 1962 graduate of Brandeis
THE JUSTICE paid his own way to Cuba, where he spent two
9everal American journalists touring the island.

This is the third part of Mr. Solarz's three-part report.

and a former editor-in-chief of
weeks last summer as one of

New SDS to Back
Conversion Project

The regime seems to have
reached much the same type of
tenuous accord with the Church
that it has with the intellectu-
als. After talking with a num-
ber of religious leaders it be-
came apparent that, if the situ-
ation wasn't all they hoped, it
was still far better than they
feared. The take-over of reli-
gious instruction by the state
has been a source of some ir-
ritation. But the main com-
plaint comes from the natural
antipathy between a professed-
ly atheistic regime and a de-
cidedly God-fearing people. It
was indicative of the coolness
between communism and Ca-
tholacism that my guide on a
trip to Old Havana refused to
enter a church we visited on
the grounds that her presence
would be resented. While
there are no present restric-
tions on the free practice of re-
ligion one senses that this is a
truce based more on necessity
than conviction. Should the
regime ever feel strong enough
to clamp dawn on religious
practices there will be little to
hold it back.

Totalitarian Control

Part of the problem of un-
derstanding the Revolution
stems from the fact that far too
many observers have permit-
ted the faults of the regime to
obscure its achievements. Com-
pared to conditions in pre-
Revolutionary Cuba many of
the people are far better off
than they were before. But it
must be remembered that the
cost of social and economic
progress has been the suppres-
sion of political opposition.
This, in its most fundamental
sense, is the historic tragedy of
the Cuban Revolution: that by
the imposition of totalitarian
controls Fidel Castro corrupted
what could have been one of
the authentic democratic revo-
lutions of our times. It was a
price that was not worth pay-
ing. In the process of provid-
ing for human wants the Revo-
lution has enslaved the human
spirit. The police state Castro
has created makes an eloquent
mockery of his proud boast that
Cuba is the only "free" terri-
tory in the hemisphere.

It is this tension between
material progress and political
repression which is the defining
characteristic of the Cuban
Revolution. The familiar trap-
pings of a Communist dictator-
ship are all present. A cult of
personality has sprung up
which must rival Stalinism in
its insistent claims for public
attention. It is almost impos-
sible to go to the bathroom
without a picture of Castro, in
various heroic poses, hanging
from the wall. Milicianos with
rifles and sub-machine guns at
the ready stand on almost ev-
ery corner creating the atmos-
phere of an armed camp. Block
committees for the Defense of
the Revolution provide a net-
work of informers who create
and shape the impetus to con-
form; a subservient judiciary
awaits those who cannot. For
those whose opposition is more
serious there is the dreaded
Isle of Pines where thousands
of political prisoners are cur-
rently incarcerated.

Labor unions, in classic com-
munist fashion, are often more
of an affliction than an assist-
ance to the workers they osten-
sibly represent. Not only are
workers forbidden to strike,
they cannot even switch jobs
without the permission of their
employer. The press, wbich has
long since given up the ghost
of independence, dully parrots
the party lines and sings the
constant praises of Fidel. Polit-
ical opposition has been ruth-
lessly suppressed. A lower
echelon ideologue I spoke to in
Havana explained that there
was no need for competing
parties since "Fidel is both the
head of the government and
the leader of the opposition
rolled into one." Like Bob
Wagner in the fabled New York
mayoralty election of 1961, my
informant seemed to be sug-
gesting. Fidel Castro makes
some of his best political hay
by campaigning against his
own record. But where Wagner
blamed the "bosses" Castro
blames the "bureaucrats." I
granted that Castro was often
critical of the Revolution's mis-
takes (rarely, of course, attrib-
uting any to himself). But
somehow I couldn't get him

Marcuse

(Co7itinued from Front Page)
Dean of Faculty Leonard
Levy yesterday expressed his
regret at Marcuse's resigna-
tion. "Professor Marcuse is a
very distinguished scholar," he
said, "and his leaving is a loss
to Brandeis." Levy pointed out
that every university has a re-
tirement rule in force. "I don't
see any reason why we should

break the rule at this time."
he stated.

"The University would be
foolish to commit itself now for
what is going to happen years
from now. Professor Marcuse
has been very valuable to us,
but we will inakf every effort
to find an equally distinguished
man to replace him in the
politics department."

Judicial Review

The Student Board of Re-
view has found a precedent
for its power of judicial re-
view. In 1945, Levin Peter-
son, chief magistrate of the
Middlesex Tribunal, ruled
that both upper sex and
lower sex were unconstitu-
tional.

It is an acknowledged fact that great art is not always
beautiful. An aesthetic response can be evoked from the
colorless horror of Picasso's Guernica as well as from the
serenity of a Madonna and Child of Raphael. A painting
does not have to be "pleasing" to the eye to be artistic.

stripped it of all its original
functionalism, and has forced
us to view it in a completely
new perspective, endowing it
with more visual significance
than it intrinsically has. The
most sophisticated examples of
this are the paintings of War-
hol, such as the one of the
Campbell's Soup cans, and the
comic strips of Lichenstein.
Most other Pop artists arrange
their subject material in some
new way, while these two ar-
tists present a stark and exact
reproduction of their subject.
In Warhol's painting, all we see
is a realistic Campbell Soup
label reproduced fifty times on
the canvas, and in Lichtenstein
we see an enormously enlarged
facsimile of a comic strip
frame, accurate right down to
the red-spotted flesh and the
blue-swatched black hair. There
is no interpretation of the sub-
ject whatsoever, for the subject
is so banal as to be void of
any possible interpretation, yet
it is because of this banality
that the subject is so signifi-
cant and has been chosen oy
the artist to represent the uni-
verse.

A famous poem of William

New Realism in painting, or "pop art", brings into
question, as has every new phase in the medium since

Resnais' ^Muriel'

By ANDREW MEYER

The films of Alain Resnais cover a wide variety of
subject matter; he has made a number of art shorts,
documentaries and two widely discussed dramatic features,
Hiroshima, Men Amour, a love story set against a back-
ground of nuclear horror, and Last Year at Marienbad, a
love story set against the background of a wealthy man-
sion. However, through all

these films he has maintained the script as well as in tJie

Kaplan Derides Dialogue

Dr. Mordecai M. Kaplan, founder of the theory of Reconstructionism, some-
times described as a fourth branch of Judaism, called ecumenism the Catholic Church's
attempt to missionize, in his lecture What Jews Can Learn from Christian Ecumen-
ism, Tuesday evening. Kaplan's was the first lecture in the Helmsley Dialogue series
— "The Dynamics of Ecumenism".

After reading "Death of the
G.O.P.?" in your last issue, I
was disturbed that this article
lacked a basic Journalistic ideal
expressed in the title of this
newspaper, the ideal of justice.
Although the conservative
revolution in the G.O.P. is a
current and timely topic, it is
deplorable that an analysis of
the subject has been turned in-
to an ideological diatribe by a
person who apparently has lit-
tle knowledge and less sym-
pathy for the political fabric
and machinery of the Republi-
can Party. If Miss Appell is to
make a judgment upon the
leadership of the G.O.P., let
her do it through a reasonable
presentation of the facts rather
than through distortions writ-
ten only for emotion. I am sure
that Miss Appell is well aware
that the Brandeis student body
is behind her emotionally, so
there seems to be no further
need in convincing the students
in such a manner.

Not Based on Fact

Clearly, the only value of a
true analysis on the topic of the
new leadeship of the Republi-
can Party would be to attempt
to draw an accurate picture of
the consequences of the con-
servative turn of the G.O.P.
There is no attempt in "Death
of the G.O.P.?" to present an
abjective conclusion based on
fact. It is not responsible to
refer to the GOP. Vice-Presi-
dential candidate as "terrible-

tongued Miller;" it is not ac-
curate to say that the Repub-
licans chose Goldwater simply
"because they wanted to try a
new idea on the electorate;" it
is not right to say that Gold-
water's philosophy is merely
simple answers to complex
problems;" and finally it is not
truthful to say that "moderates
were then ruthlessly squeezed
out of their positions, and con-
servatives who were political
novices were brought in."

"Death of the G.O.P.?" is

not the work of careful judg-
ment through reason, but rath-
er it seems to be just another
example of Democratic cam-
paign rhetoric. Since Miss Ap-
pell has not based her charges
on fact, we must only conclude
that she is "shooting from the
hip." The article does not ful-
fill the literary goals which the
Justice wishes to achieve. Po-
litical analyses should always
be presented in any newspaper,
but only analyses that offer
rational, objective, and imagi-
native ideas. "Death of the
G.O.P.?" is little more than a
political advertisement. As
such, it has no place in a news-
paper like the Justice.

(Continued froju Page 3)

I spoke had a rather pragnialic
approach to "Marxismo-Lenin-
ismo." In a lengthy discussion
with about 100 campesinos on
the outskirts of Santiago 1 was
told by one strapping, middle-
aged peasant, that '*if the im-
perialists had given us what
the communists have given us
we would all be imperialists."
There was a good deal of truth
in what he said. For the over-
whelming majority of the Cu-
ban people Communism is the
label which has been attached
to the material achievements of
the Revolution. It is not a sus-
tained intellectual insight into
the workings of history. When
Castro spoke at the 26 of July
rally in Oriente he invariably
got a far more enthusiastic re-
sponse to his nationalistic ap-
peals (**If they shoot one more
of our men then we can no
longer give the order to hold
back") than to his ideological
pronouncements.

Extremists

In fact, the most extreme sup-
porters of the Revolution were
not the Cuban people but the
80 odd American "students'*
who were travelling through
the island at the invitation of
the Cuban Federation of Stu-
dents and the expense of the
Cuban government. With the
exception of Castro and Gue-
varra, plus a few other recalci-
t r a n t revolutionaries, they
were almost the only people
in Cuba with beards. Many of
them seemed to believe in the
violent overthrow, not of the
Cuban government, but of the
American government. In fact,
so far as I could gather, most
were not even m school. One
of the most articulate members
©f the group was a 32-year-old
cab driver from New York
named Stephen Seltzer. But
like the others — many of whom
belonged to the pro-Chinese
Progressive Labor Movement
— Mr. Seltzer was fully com-
mitted to the Revolution. If
the Marines were to invade
Cuba while he was still there,

he told mc, he would feel ob-
ligated to come to the armed
support of his Cuban comrades.
It would be one of the great
tragedies of American diplo-
macy if the U. S. based its Cu-
ban policy on the remote possi-
bility of an internal upheaval.
Despite all the internal twists
of the Revolution, Castro has
managed to retain the support
of a large percentage of his
original cadres. The Army,
from all appearances, seems
fully behind the Revolution af-
ter its fifth year in power. It is
the conybination of popular
support and political suppres-
sion which seems the best
guarantee against counter-rev-
olutionary activity. The fact
that many of those who could
have provided the leadership
for such a movement have fled
the island has further debili-
tated the resistance. With a
monopoly of weapons, control
of communications, and an ab-
sence of organized opposition
there is little to threaten the
continued existence of the Rev-
olution.

Enthusiasm
Late one night, over some ex-
otic tropical drinks in what
used to be the old Trader Vic's,
I ^oke to a young girl named
Gloria Marsan who had been
active in the early days of the
Revolution, when Castro was
still in the mountains. She had,
in fact, been the young lady
who, at great personal risk to
herself, smuggled out of the
Sierra Maestra photographs of
Castro which proved that he
was still alive. In 1957, with
Batista's police on her trail,
she was forced into exile. Some
of her best friends had been
killed by the dictatorship they
were trying to overthrow. Her
experience was not unique. But
neither was her enthusiasm.
"If I lost my husband, or even
my entire family," she said
softly, "it wouldn't be so bad.
But if I lost the Revolution it
would be terrible. There would
be nothing left for me to live
for. The Revolution is my
whole life."

Family Meal

(Co7?tiTii<ed from Front Page)

the meal was served by candle-
light.

The program, supported
jointly by the Student Council
and the administration, is open
free of charge to all students
who are on meal contract and
who have paid the Student Ac-
tivities Fee. Those who partici-
pate are obligated to serve one
meal. Guests or students not on
meal contract are charged the
regular dinner price. At pres-
ent, the plan is to hold one din-
ned every two weeks in either
Kutz or Swig.

The reaction to the first meal
appeared very enthusiastic.
The quiet atmosphere, the ser-
vice, and the special menu re-
ceived great praise. The wait-
ers were also very pleased.
Most said they had enjoyed
themselves as much as the
diners and many offered to
serve a second meal, even

though they are not required
to do so.

Deans Morrissey and Zion,
and Student Council Housing
Chairman Allen Zerkin, the
organizers of the program, re-
vealed their ideas for its future.
They noted that the dinners
would provide an excellent op-
portunity for faculty members
and their families to meet
many students on a personal
level. They also expressed the
hope that students would plan
group dining or invite dates to
the dinners. The success of the
initial meal is expected to
bring the number of partici-
pants in the program to well
over two hundred by the time
of the next dinner. Eventually,
it is hoped that enough people
will participate to warrant the
use of two dining halls at once.

voir and water towers. As a
further aid to the city, Brandeis
will permit sewage from Cedar-
wood to move through the cam-
pus pipe system, thus saving
the city the $40,000 cost of a
new disposal system.

Brandeis is still negotiating
with the city for the purchase
of six acres on South Street be-
tween Shapiro Athletic Center
and the Fuller Infirmary. The
University has offered $56,000
for this land.

Th€ University contends that
the land under discussion is
worthless to the city. The reser-
voir was built to provide emer-
gency water to the city in case
the main water source failed.
However, the Metropolitan Dis-
trict Commission, the water
supplier for the Boston area,
has built pipes into Waltham
to supplement the water sup-
ply. Brandeis asserts that the
reservoir would probably leak

and the tower would give In-
sufiicient pressure. Tiiereiore,
said the University, the reser-
voir is a needless eye sore in
the center of a five million
dollar complex of buildings.

The land on South Street,
according to the University, is
useless to the city. None of the
land under discussion is cur-
rently on the tax rolls. The
University says that the city
losses nothing in taxes and
gains about $200,000 from deal-
ing with Brandeis.

Acquisition of the reservoir
will permit the architect to be-
gin design of the student union
immediately. Student Council
has chosen a student committee
to meet with the architect and
administration officials, and to
visit student unions on other
campuses. This committee will
assist in the design of the build-
ing. Construction of the student
union is to begin during the
summer of 1965.

Vandalism

(Continued from Front Page)

the roof of the Castle was
ordered out of the building by
a visitor, the sister of one of
the residents. In previous years
there were a number of cases
of intruders in girls' dormi-
tories and of girls being threat-
ened on campus roads. This
year there have been a few
examples of voyeurism and a
case ot .some boys trying to
sneak into a girls' dorm. In an-
other unrelated incident, the
door to Renfield was broken
last Friday night by an inebri-
ated freshman.

Attacks Around DeRoy

Most of the attacks by delin-
quents have centered around
DeRoy Hall, possibly because
of its proximity to the Cedar-
wood section of Waltham. Over
the past few weeks teenagers
throwing rocks have broken
four windows on the first and
second floors and a window in
the lounge of DeRoy, according
to resident counselor Leon
Lcvinc.

Last Friday night two teen-
agers entered DeRoy to buy a
coke. They were ordered to
leave by the dorm monitor.
When they refused, the moni-
tor got Levine, who also order-
ed them to leave. When they
refused again, he attempted to
detain them so that security
could get their names. One of
them managed to escape and
round up about a dozen others,
who congregated in front of the
dorm.

In order to avoid a fight,
Levine released the boy he still
had. By this time security had
arrived to take a few names.

After security left, Levine
and the a.ssistant resident coun-
selor, Eliott Richclson, a resi-
dent of Waltham, talked to the
teenagers for fifteen minutes.
They pleaded innocent to all
charges of vandalism, and of-
fered to talk the situation over
with the administration. They
were carrying large branches
and were taunting DeRoy resi-
dents to fight, calling them
"Brooklyn kikes." No fight en-
sued, however.

Earlier in the year, some
teenagers entered the DeRoy
lounge carrying monkey-
wrenches. One of them went
upstairs to ask, "Where's the
rumble?" When he was told
that there wasn't any, he left.
Cars Pelted

On several occasions, includ-
ing last Saturday morning,
teenagers have pelted cars in
the Hamilton lot and on the
road with rotten fruit and eggs.
They also slashed the tires of
a motor scooter parked in
Hamilton.

Several hundred dollars of
damage was inflicted during
the week on a car parked in the
Gym lot. Vr.ndals removed the
rear tires from the car, per-
mitting the car to fall and
break its axle.

During the summer, vandals
also broke windows in the Rose
Art Museum, and broke into
sexeral buildings on campus.

In past years, people found
trespassing on Brandeis proper-
ty were not prosecuted. This
policy will be changed in the
future.

There is no consensus about
what should be done about the
vandal problem. Beginning
last Friday night, two dorm
monitors are required to sit in
the lounge to discourage
strangers from entering The
monitor is supposed to detain
the intruders until security or
the Waltham police arrive.
These monitors may soon be
equipped with walkie-talkies
to call security.

Other projected measures are
to put all vending machines on
the residence floors, to put a
special lock on the laundry
room that only a Brandeis stu-
dent can open, to bring in Wal-
tham police or plainclothesmen,
and set up an emergency res-
cue squad made up of Brandeis
students.

The stationing of a guard at
the information booth and the
steel fence around campus are
obviously ineffective, since the
guard can be passed, and the
fence has been cut forty-one
times during the past year.

Dean^s List

(Continued from Page 2)

tem .such as that at Brandeis.
Grades mean different things
to different people. One pro-
fessor may consider a B stand-
ard, another will take "aver-
age" literally and pivot his
grades around a solid bunch of
C's. Finally, certain courses
are much easier than others. It
has been said that a majority
of the courses outside of the
sciences are "one-night C's,"
and, with a background, a good
shot at a B. If you are oul just
for marks, you can usually
manage a schedule below your
potential and ride the Dean's
List to sham glory.

All of the above, unfortu-
nately, sounds more like a con-
demnation of the grading sys-
tem than of the Dean's List it-
self. But the system is not my
direct target.

A lot of the grade emphasis
might be removed, however, if
Dean's List were done av.'ay
with. Specifienlly, Dean's List
perpetrates a myth. Not only
does it make consistency of
grades desirable, even if this
be a consistency of mediocrity,
but it also puts forward a false
definit ion of intellectual
achievement. By unduly em-
phasizing grades, a warped
sense of values is engendered.
A significant paper, an inde-
pendent reading course — these
are not publicized. Yet grades,
which are primarily an admin-
istrative device, assume the
role of being the major evi-
dence of intellectual attain-
ment.

Why is the Dean's List con-
tinued? One might answer that
it is to recognize academic
achievement, and that although
faulty, there should be some
recognition. But it is the fruits
of one's labor that should be
noted, not the letters which
represent (and often misrepre-
sent) them. Important papers
might be published, seminar
dissertations delivered publicly.
The traditional pair of letters
should be sent to the student
and his parents so that those
who need their grades recog-
nized will not feel cheated. But
the publication of Dean's List
basically serves the negative
function of perpetuating high
school standards of academics.

On the Judges' Bench

Coal to Co

■Pete Weiner

FoothciU makes a belated return to the Hraiideis cam-
pus Saturday morninK (Oct. 24) when the Judges accept
a challenge from an ambitious squad of junior executives
from New York City.

A 10 o'clock kickoff is scheduled for the seven-man
teams. The touch football game will be played at Gordon
Field.

The Good Guys, as they bill themselves, hail from
Scarsdale and White IMains. They are alumni of familiar
football schools such as Princeton, Syracuse, Miami, Ala-
bama, Ohio State and Amherst.

Most of the Good Guys turned to touch football strict-
ly as an escape from the commuter routine on weekends.
For the last seven years they have played in the Turkey
Bowl.

The Judges will l)e represented by a team selected
from the intramural ranks i)y the Intramural Council and
Coach Gene liooth. Players include Steve Coyle, Fran Stol-
zenbach, Allan Goroll, Bob Zuckerman, Joe Perkins, Kent
Lawrence, Hill Moody and Mike Macar. Also Bob Lerman,
Mark Snyder, Byron Bowman, Ken Pocrass, Bob Aaronson
and Pat Dunn.

Inter-collegiate footl)all was abandoned at Brandeis in
105!) after nine successful years. The Judges fielded ex-
cellent teams in their day playing small college rivals. But
football went the way of intercollegiate tnick, big-time
basketball, and interest in varsity athletics.

Football will stay an intramural sport in the near fut-
ure. But intercollegiate track will be back, presumably next
year. Basketball will remain at its i)resent level. Brandeis
will continue to play such rivals as Harvard, Colby, Ver-
mont, Clark, and Northeastern. But this is the last year
for Boston College and Rhode Island. As for interest in

athletics . . .

* * *

The Judges' basketball
team began fall practice last
Thursday as ('oach Irv 01 in
greeted 24 candidates. The
Judges open at Rhode Island
Dec. 1 and debut at home
with VVPI Dee. 3.

Co-Capts. Dave Kpstein of
New York City and Richie
llymoff of Brookline head
the 12-man varsity that also
includes three other letter-
men in Santo Cimino of
Portland, Me., Mike Leider-
nian, of Great Neck, N. Y.
and Steve Heller of the
Bronx.

Freshman Coach Gene
Booth had 12 promising
freshmen with the biggest
newcomer 6-6, 205 p o u n d
Dave J a c o b s o n of Falls
Church, Va.

Also reporting on the varsity squad were: Gerry
Katz, Mel Segal, Steve Goldstein, Jeff Schwaam, Richie
Epstein, Kric P^pstein, and Barry Zimmerman.

F^reshman candidates include Art Brawer, Rich Tolin,
Jeff Silver, Ricky c;url>st, Steve Jacobs, Fliot Cohen,
Richard Brodsky, Mike Kushlan, Paul Kranz, Jack Rovner

and Al Cuyjet.

The Brandeis golf team scored a 6-1 victory over
Babson in a tri-meet at Spring Valley, Monday. MIT de-
feated the Judges 6-1 and Babson 6-1 to complete a sweep
of the meet. In the Judges victory. Shelly Natenberg, Jim
Halperin, Larry Bates, Bob Zweben, John Revson and Bob
Nelson all scored successes against their Babson opponents.
Only Nelson triumphed against his MIT foe. Captain Steve
Moni's absence prevented the Ju<lges from shutting-out
Babson. The Judges had to default the number one match.

The Judges lost their first match to the University
of Vermont last week. The golfers lost 5-2 as Shelly Naten-
berg scored the Judges first point defeating Vermont's
numi)er one man. In the (ireater Bostons both Steve Mora
and Barry Zimmerman made poor showings due to lack
of i)ractice and bad weather. The golfers should show
success in their spring slate after their impressive victory
over I>al)so!i.

The Brandeis Invitational Tennis tourney has been
postponed until this weekend due to the torrential down
pour last Saturday and Sunday. The tourney headlines a
glorious weekend of sports at Brandeis. The soccermen
face AIC Saturday afternoim. The intramural all-stars
play host to the Westchester executives Saturday morning.

SUNDAY EVENING Qct. 18 ^^ 8 O'CLOCK

Soccer Team Ties Babson 2-2;
Faces TuftSj American International

By STEVE GOLDSTELN

Failing to capitalize on numerous scoring opportunities the soccer team had to
settle for a 2-2 tie with Babson on Friday. The tie, after their convincing victory over
Barrington last week, was a great letdown for Coach John Hughes and his squad.
Coach Hughes had expected the season to be an "uphill" one after the tough games
at Colby and Boston Univer-
sity. The deadlock evened
Brandeis' record at 2-2-2.

Although the Judges out-
shot the visitors 10-4 in the
first period, Babson scored
(irst. Morris Elga tallied on a
pass from his right wing as he
left footed a shot past Dave
Epstein, the Brandeis goal ten-
der. Epstein had no chance on
the play as he was partially
screened. The score stood at 1-0
throughout the first half despite
the efforts of the Brandei:>'
front line which sent 16 shots in
the direction of Brian Barefoot,
the Babson goalie. However,
Barefoot was able to turn back
all of the Judge's thrusts.

Coach John Hughes' squad
finally evened the score at 15:lr«
of the third period as Co-Cap-
tain Dimitri Mavros, with an
assist from Biolo Sobowale,
beat goalie Barefoot with a
right - footed boot. Sobowale
had taken a corner kick from
Cadmon Mills before geting the
ball to Mavros.

The goal seemed to inspire
the Judges as they tallied
again with only 1 minute and
thirty five seconds gone in the
final quarter. This time, Pete
Barnett, with assists from Bob
Bersson and Danny Obasson,
notched the temporary tie-
breaker. However, Morris Elga
of Babson deadlocked the score
at 1055 as his shot trickled
oir the fingers of Shelly Glass
wlio had replaced Epstein in
the goal. This proved to be the
final score as the Judges shot
often in the remaining time but
failed to tally.

Students Tomorrow >J/</ Campus Security Program

Brandeis students will meet this week with the Fac-
ulty Administrative Committee and the President of the
University to discuss various campus problems.

President Abram L. Sachar will address a Student
Union meeting Wednesday at 4:30 in Nathan Seifer Hall.
Preceding this, the President will meet with Student

Council members, club presi

dents, class presidents, and

committee chairmen.

The subject of President
Sachar's address is not known
at the time we go to press. Both
Dean of Students Kermit Mor-
rissey and Associate Dean of
Students Leonard Zion told
The Justice Sunday that they
do not know the subject of the
address. The President was out
of town.

A three-man Student Coun-
cil committee will meet with
the Ad. Committee Thursday
afternoon to discuss the plans
for a tripartite University gov-
ernment that were overwhelm-
ingly approved in a Student
Union referendum last week.
Council President Steve Mora,
Bert Foer '66 and Frank Bloch
'66 will be the student repre-
sentatives to this meeting.

Dean of Students Morrissey,
chairman of the Ad. Commit-
tee, invited the students to dis-
cuss other outstanding student
problems at Tluirsday's meet-
ing.

A draft of the student tri-
partite proposal will also bo
presented next week to Pro-
fessor Joseph Berliner of the
Economics Department, chair-
man of a committee of the
Faculty Senate.

In other Student Council ac-
tions this week Mora appointed
a committee of Ira Liebowitz
67, David Gerstel '67 and
Naomi Reice '65 to compose a
list of recommendations for im-
proving campus security ar-
rangements. After this week's
Council meeting, the sugges-
tions will be presented to Pres-
ident Sachar.

New security measures enable the Dean of Students to assure students that thevr
are .safe on cami)us and are not in serious physical danger. iMore guards better lightinij
and greater student alertness are contributing to the safety of BrandJis students and
property, according to Dean Leonard Zion. The emergency safety procedures outlined
in last week's Justice, will end this week and should hell) the A*dministration to draft
a comprehensive security plan for the future.

Last weekend a s e c u r i t y^^

guard was posted in Hamilton
(Massell) Quadrangle during
the night to protect residents
from outsiders and try to dis-
cover who is causing the trou-
ble in that area. Most of the
recent incidents have occurred
in Hamilton quadrangle.

More and better lighting has
been installed in the gym park-
ing lot to prevent the car van-

dalism that has taken place in
recent weeks. It is not known
whether these acts were com-
mitted by outsiders or students.
In addition, student monitors
in each dorm are on the alert
for trespassers. These monitors,
who remain in the common
lounges during weekend eve-

Brandeis Alumni to Hold
Conference on Careers

The Second Annual Career Conference, under the sponsorship of Student ('^)uncil
and the National Alumni Association, will be held on Saturday, October IM, at Schwartz
Hall, from 11 to 4:30 p.m. The student chairman of the conference ia Anita HIau 'Gf).

The Conference, conducted by P,randeis alumni from all walks of life, will feature
discussion groups in such career fields as law, journalism, medicine, .science, real es-
tate, government service, and publishing. Each group will be lead by one or more Bran-
deis alumni who are currently.;.

Library Plans System

To Stop

/'

The administration of Goldfarb Library is presently
considering the installment of a new ''foolproof" system
of protection against illegal ^'borrowing" of books.

According to Mr. Louis Schreiber, Library Director
of Administrative Services, the number of books that have
"disappeared" over the past few years has risen to a point

*where some action must l>e
taken A new charge-out met-
hod, which does away with the
due-date card, was begun in
September as the first step in
this campaign.

The new system of protection,
now in its experimental stages
in a large Mid-Western library,
would work through a system
of electromagnetic charges.
Each book in the library would
be given a strong electromag-
netic charge, and then placed
on the shelf. When the book is
borrowed, one of the steps in
the charge-out process would
be the neutralizing of the
charge. The borrower would
then leave the library through
a turnstile to be placed at the
exit. If the borrower fails to go
through the process of charging
out his library book, the book
retains its electromagnetic
charge and the turnstile, sensi-
tive to the charge even if the
book is concealed, will not
allow the person to pass
through. It would stick, and at
the same time, lights would
flash to warn the guard and
embarrass the culprit.

This elaborate system would

Student Vote
Approves New
Tripartite Plan

Light voting characterized
the referendum held Friday,
October 23, in Schwartz Hall.
The Union was asked to ap-
prove or disapprove the Stu-
dent Council plan for a tri-
partite government as outlmed
in the Justice of October 20.

A total of 259 votes were
cast. Of these, 221 votes were
cast in favor of tripartite gov-
ernment and 35 votes were cast
disapproving the proposed
plan. The percentages of the
votes cast were 85% and 13%,
respectively. There were 3 ab-
stentions.

The plan formulated by
Council featured a University
Government based on control
equally divided among the ad-
ministration, the faculty, and
the student body. Matters con-
cerning only one of these
groups would be liandlcd with-
in the group itself.

ed to forward any information
concerning these persons to se-
curity. This system will end
November 1, since its purpo.se
is only to ascertain who is re-
sponsible for the vandalism.

AH entrances save one in
each dorm have been locked in
an attempt to spot trespas.sers.
It is felt that if all students en-
ter through one door it will be
easier for tliem to notice out-
siders e n 1 e r I n g. This has
proved inefiective since stu-
dents have opened many doors
from the inside and left them
open so that anyone can enter.
Because of this situation the
Dean of Students Office is re-
considering the advisability of
this procedure. Mr. Sunmer
Abranis. director of the Depart-
ment of Buildings :md Grounds,
thinks these doors should be
locked at all times, not just as
a temporary measure as at

trary, there is evidence to indi-
cate that suc'h statements have
the effect of producing certain
types of experiences with the
psychedelics which resemble
temporary states of toxic psy-

In this connection it is inter-
esting to note that the psycho-
tomimetic label was developed
in hospital settings where psy-
chiatrists were attempting to
produce a model psychosis in
Iheir research in experimental
psychiatry. The data indicates
that they got what they ex-
pected and little more in most
cases. In any case, official warn-
ings seem to make no real im-
pact on individuals bent on ex-
ploring this controversial area
for tiiemselves.

Q What reasons would you
suggest are important in coun-
seling students away from ex-
perimenting with these drugs?

A: I thinic your choice oi the

findings. As far as reasons are
concerned, it is my feeling that
these substances in either their
natural or synthetic forms are
extremely powerful techniques
for altering consciousness and
have the capacity to induce ex-
periences of a profoundly re-
ligious and. in some cases, life-
chaaging character. In fact,
their therapeutic effectiveness
may lie in these types of ex-
periences rather than in any
simple psycholc^'cal or medi-
cal explanation. However, very
little is presently known about
the interaction of the individ-
ual and the environment sur-
rounding this type of experi-
ence. What we do know sug-
gests that it re<iuires a great
deal of planning and thinking

in such a venture and it is
nothing to be taken lightly or
innocently for the sake of kicks

An Open Letter
To Student Council

By AVROM WEINBERG

For some time now, I have held a deep and committed
concern over the preservation of the much ridiculed and
much questioned ''liberal tradition" at Brandeis Univer-
sity. It was that concern which led me to seek the seat
which I held on the infamous Campus Environment Com-
mittee. I fear that I aroused much hostility among many
mtmbers of the student body

.'IS a result of my honest at-
tempts to understand the reali-
ties and unrealities of institu-
tional existence — as well as
presenting and protecting stu-
dent interests and concerns

lie spotlight which has sud-
denly shone upon us as is the
Administration. For we re-
sorted to seeking what we
hoped might become public
sympathy for our cause. What

For, somehow, my task of pre- we gained by that unfortunate

senting an unyieldinji ideologi-
cal position — rather than seek-
ing means of truly preserving
the freedom which we have all
insisted is rightfully ours.

Paradoxical Situation

We arc living in a society,
which, as a c o m p 1 e x whole,
does not recognize our rights
to mould and live by our own
convictions and values — cer-
tainly not until we attain the
venerable age of 21. This is a
fact. To dispute its truth is to
deny reality. But it is also a
fact that the University, as an
institution, must mould its own
values and create its own free-
doms within the very society
which makes its existence pos-
sible. Thus it very often ap-
pears, and, in fact, actually is,
two-faced — but this is the
necessary price which we must really should have left some

action was a far cry from pub-
lic sympathy. The reaction
which ensued forced the Uni-
versity to take a stand —
through legislation — which it
had never before been pres-
sured to take.

Passive Protest

Mr. Mora seems to have ac-
cepted the irretractibility of
the present rules. Such recog-
nition is implied in his advoca-
tion of so-called "passive pro-
test." But it seems to me very
strange that he cannot learn by
his own experience. Not so long
ago, we chose to engage in
"passive protest'' over an
"open-door rule." Our protest
was not accepted as in any way
"passive" — whether or not we
believed it truly was passive —
and the ensuing consequences

pay for our paradoxical place
in society. For it is only by
explicitly subscribing to the
standards of society, while im-
plicitly creating and fostering
its own standards, values, and

kind of a meaningful impact.
It seems to me that the one
thing which we should have
learned, if we learned anything
at all, from our political blun-
der, is that we cannot make

freedoms, that the University something so simply by calling

can, in actuality, exist autono-
mously of socidy. This is un-
fortunate, but true — and we've
^'ot to learn to live with and ac-
cept this paradox, whether we
like it or not — and I should
add that I, for one, detest it

it so. If protest is to be consid-
ered passive, it must be ac-
cepted as passive by the Ad-
ministration — for g e n u i n e
passive protest is a statement
of aflirmation of existing rules
with simultaneous expression

I have never believed that ^L^l^,°."^_^'?^*^"^^"^ . ^•'*".'"^,?
any institution has the moral '^ '

right to legislate morality.
However, 1 cannot deny that it
does have the legal right to do
so. But, from everything that
I have been able to gather from
my encounters with adminis-
trators, including the Piesident
himself, with whom I met on
October 3rd, the Administra-
tion has no intention of legis-
lating morality. Since sexual
liberality cannot be tolerably
upheld as a positive ideal in
our conservative age, the Uni-
versity has been iorced, as a
result of undue public atten-
tion and concern, to sacrifice
principles for the preservation
of genuine freedom. So far as
the public can see, our fair in-
stitution is taking a clear-cut
stand on the issue of sexual
liberality. But are we really
so bhnd that we cannot see that

protest passive, is not, in itself,
a sufficient criterion for mak-
ing it so.

The planned boycott of the
dining halls was not a passive
protest. Why not? The mistake
made was not in the means of
protest — but rather in the
vehicle of communicatioii
which was utilized to organize
and explain the protest ^
namely, the Justice. For the
Justice is not simply a local
campus newspaper; it is re-
ceived and read by many di-
verse members of the world at
large. And, so long as we our-
selves, through our own pro-
test, continue to create friction
between the public and the
University, we can expect seri-
ous repercussions from the Ad-
ministrative law-givers. If this
kind of protest held some
promise of helping our cause,

this IS truly the necessary cost ^^^^^ ' would say, bv all means,

of preserving our "right to pri- ^^^f^^^ to it: but the unpleasant

vacy '? We are ourselves as ^^^hty of our plight is that it

Ecumenism is a difficult term
to define. Dean Kelley stated
that it refers to unity within

scold them. Thus if a man is
hungry, he will be scolded by
the fundamentalist; if a man
does not have a job, the funda-
mentalist will scold him. At the
moment. Reverend Kelley con-
fided, the fundamentalists are
using this ability to scold po-
litically. Reverend Kelky de-
clared that "If the fundamenta-
lists do not want ecumenism,
the rest of Christendom should
go ahead without them."

of all faiths. However, the
question of unity with Judaism
is still debatable within the con-
text of ecuminism. Karl Barth,
noted Swiss theologian, has
written that ecuminism does
not include Jews within its
framework, while Elwin Smith,
an ecclesiastical journalist,
avers that Jews are part of the
eommon covenant between God
and man. Reverend Kelley,
however, pointed out that unity
between Christians and Jews is
not possible until the question
of diocide bas oeen settled, and
Christians show proper remorse
lor their crimes against Jewry.

Protestant and Catholic

Union between Catholic and
Protestants is anotlier matter.
Although Reverend Kelley feels
that both faiths are rediscover-
ing an ancient kinship, there are
problems to overcome. The lar-
gest, Protestants feel, is the at-
titude of the Catholic Church
toward inter-faith marriages.
The Protestant*; will only be
satisfied when the Catholic
Church recognizes these mar-
riages when they are performed
by a non-Catholic clergyman,
and discontinues its insistence
on agreements binding the cou-
ple lo rearing their children as
Calliolics.

The Catholic Church wants
aid lo parochial stliools. This
anxiety about giving financial
support to religious schools re-
f Ji els tiie more serious dilemma
of the role of the church within
America. An example ol this
controversy is the handling of
the distribution of aid under
the new Anti-Poverty Act. Al-
though parochial school chil-
dren are entitled to aid. tliey
must go to a public school to
receive it.

Church Welfare

Another crisis is that of sub-
sidiary welfare. This is assist-
ance to the needy given through
the church. The idea has been
supported as recently as in the
Civil Rights Act; title six states
that no person shall be denied
aid because of race, or sex.
Religion is not mentioned be-
cause some of the aid is given
through the churches, who
naturally want to cater only to
their own members; the non-
member must seek his aid
somewhere else.

The three problems men-
tioned by Reverend Keliey are
not peculiar to one s e c t ol
Christianity, but cut across de-
nominations. The major pro-
tests against the ecumenical
movement and modern ideas
come from the fundamentalist
groups such as the National
Association of Evangelicals
headed by Carl Mclntyre. Rev-
erend Kelley mentioned three
characteristics common to alJ
fundamentalists, literalism,
apocalypsLsm, and moralism.

Fundamentalist Doctrine

Literalism is the belief that
everything written is true,
the mind of each fundamenta-
However, truth exists within
list and he can take whatever
meaning he desires from any
text. Apocalypsism is the sep-
aration of everything into good
and evil, black and white.
Satan, who is the spirit behind
evil is always winning the fight

Anti-Fundamentalist Stand

Reverend Kelley should be
commended for his vigorous
anti-fundamentalist stand. It is
amazingly courageous of one so
closely associated with such a
prominent organization as the
National Council of Churches
to make such statements against
one of the Council's members

soon become irritating to the
articulate listener. Perhaps this
irritation resulted from a pre-
conceived idea on the part of
the listener. Surely it is diffi-
cult to imagine a lecture about
the remaining problems of ecu-
menism without discussing the-
ology. Reverend Kelley, with
the adeptness of a politician,
evaded any mention of thcolog-
cal conflicts between the Cath-
olic and Protestant faiths. Two
problems come readily to mind:
the autiiorily of the Papacy,
and the position of Mary in he
church doctrine. These ques-
tions will have to be settled be-
fore the ecumenical movement
can begin its work.

Bernard

Feiffer launched into his
theme with a description of his
cartoon character, Bernard.

character exists, and the mod-
els from which he is drawn are
so popular, precisely because
so many Americans see them-

fact, many humorists are quite
the opposite of this little man,
though they have used his
brothers. Robert Benchley, for

" Candidate Speaks Out

Day in the Evetu

Donald Sachs

"Why did 1 a political neophyte, choose to run for federal (»frjce? Why did 1,
1 political neophvte, choose to oppose a real Goliath, John McCormack ?" Thus did Noel
b'lv candidate for Congress in the ninth district (most of Boston) begm his explana-
tioii'of his "social experiment" in ixjlitics to a small but enthusiastic audience at
Schwartz Hall last Wednesday. ,. . , , ,.,. ,, .. .

Day said that he entered politics })ecause only politics can offer answers lor
hopelessness and despair" that — — '

he encountered as a social
worker in Roxbury. the Negro
section of Boston. He .«jaid that
social workers can give an-
swers that are "only success-
ful for a short period of time."
He entered federal rather than
state politics because such
problems facing Boston as bad
housing, unemployment, a n d
ill elderly people are endemic
to all urban communities
throughout the nation.

Candidate Day then proceed-
ed to outline the four social
forces which are making con-
temporary society obsolete and
which are making a "truly hu-
man society" neces.sary. These
forces, which seem to be de-
rived from the report on the
Triple Revolution, are the tech-
nological revolution, the ap-
parent detente with the Soviet
Union, the ri.se of the underde-
veloped nations, and the rise
of the Negro revolution.

Technological Revolution

It is the technological revo-
lution that will make changes

United States now possesses a
nuclear stockpile capable of de-
populating the world five times.
Since defense is one of the
most automated of all indus-
tries, dollars spent on defense
do not increase the number of
jobs.

However, one could argue
whether the above data is
truly relevant to Day's posi-
tion. In the automated world
that he projects, it will be pos-
sible to produce enough goods
to supply every boay with all
the necessities of life. This
eliminates scarcity, which is
the basic supposition of all
traditional economic theory,
both capitalist and Marxist.
The distribution of goods can
truly be "from each according
to his ability and to each ac-
cording to his needs." The dis-
tinction between capitalism
and socialism will be obsolete,
because the problems that these
systems were made to solve
will no longer exist.

Day is hopeful that cybcrna-

between the two .
mistakes made by a good per-
son arc not his fault, because
the Devil wins because of some
mysterious Cosmic force. The
idea of a powerful con.«^piracy
assumes importance here; it
explains the notion that mis-
lakes are made, and helps to en-
list fighters in the cause. Judge-
mentary morality is the con-
demnation of any wrongdoing.
The fundamentalist wants soci-
ety to have more respect for

T^^ioQ Anv in the ordering of society ncces- tion will eliminate most of the

sary. Day said that increased
automation and cybernation
(automated control of ma-
chinery) will make many
workers unemployable. He
said that jobs are being auto-
mated away at the rate of 40,-
000 per year and that eventu-
ally 2% of the country will be
able to produce goods for the
other 98%.

The technological revolution

drudgery of work. He realizes
that this will require a revision
of the "work is good" ethic
that has pervaded Western cul-
ture for the past three cen-
turies. He hopes that release
from work will enable people
to develop to their full human
potential. This will allow many
people to become professional
people or artists. But Day
doesn't say what happens to

has been particularly thorough people who find their fulfill

lin or solving mathematical
((juations may be adecjuate st If-
fulfillmc>nt for some, but play-
ing a good hand of poker is
fulfillment for most.

The second and third of the
revolutionary forces that Day
cites are the detente with the
Soviet Union and the new na-
tions from Africa, Asia, and
South America. Day lee^s that
we should no lon^or think ol
the Soviets as an irn concilable
enemy. He a d d e d that we
should break out of "the cold
war mentality" that sees the
world divided between slave
and free. While he admits the
Soviets lack some freedom of
thought, he .»;aid that the situ-
ation is no better here.

The new nations represent a
challenge to this rigid way of
thought, according to Day.
They reject both Russian Com-
munism and Western capital
ism. They only want to devel-
op themselves. They don't
want a world of power blocs
or ideology.

Negro Freedom

To explain the meaning of
the fourth force, the Negro
revolution, Day traced its his-
tory. He said that the first
phase began in 1619, when the
lit st A f 1 ican slaves were
brought to America, and lasted
until I8fj3, when the Emanci-
pation Proclamation was
signed. During this period,
there were over 500 slave re-
volts in the South.

sadistic make-out man — or as
a kind of James Bond, an
epicurean killer who always
chooses the right wine, though
rarely any kind of right ethics.
The typical American family
humor, in Feiffer's view, pre-
sents a bumbling-Bernard fa-
ther, a dominating, persever-
ing iTK)ther, and darlingly de-
monic youngsters. Any ac-
knowledgement that Mama and
Papa have any more sexual re-
lationship than a good-bye kiss
is verboten, though Mother's
whole purpose in life is the
castration of Papa What is
most dangerous in this view is
that the stereotype of humor
seems after some exposure to
be truer and truer to reality,
and our view of Negroes or
Jews comes closer and closer
to the stage Jew. In the same
way the gag marriage of the
comic strip seems to us a nor-
mal one, and the marriages we
see around us are Dagwood and
Dotty reproduced.

FeifTer would not have us
separate politics from all
branches of human affairs: our
political life bears the impress
of our society, will reflect it
and can be no better or wor.se
than it. Absurd as Goldwater
is, for example, we do know
"in our hearts" that one kind
o\ aspiration he le prevents is

Noel Day

(Continued from Paqe 5)

Day wer»t on to say that the
Nc'^ro began to rise politically
and economically until Recon-
struction ended and Jim Crow-
ism set in. During the first dec-
ades of the twentieth century
there were ia/o exponents of
Negro thought oh the question
of equality. The first was
Booker T. Washington, who
thought that the Negro could
rise economically but could
never mix socially with the
whites. The otiier was Dubois,
who believed that complete in-
tegration was the only answer.
Washingiou's views were most
prevalent until 1954.

In 1934 the Supreme Court
hold that segregation is illegal.
Two years later, in Montgom-
ery. Alabama, the Negro ct)m-
niunity began its first non-vio-
lent demonstration for equal
treatment. In 1960, the sit-in
movement for "hamburger
equality" began. More recent-
ly however, the question is be-
coming not whether the Negro
can buy a hamburger with a
white, but rather whether he
has enough money to 1 y a
hamburger at all. The sliift
began toward economic equal-
ity, in the North as well as in
the South.

With this change of orienta-
tion, the movement went from
reform to revolution, accord-
ing to Day. He said that the
movement began to attack the
basic priorities of society. In
doing so, he .said, the move-
nxonl is helpitjg the poor
whites because Negroes cannot
have decent homes until all
have decent homes, and Ne-
groes cannot have jobs until
all have jobs.

Day added that the Negro
movement gave America the
"gift" of non-violence. Al-
though most freedom cam-
paigners adopted non-violence
only as a tactic, it gave the
country a visible alternative
to combat and conHict.

He said aiso that the Negro
movement rests on the suppo-
sition that America is a moral
nation, that it would react in
horror when it discovered the
treatment it was giving its Ne-
gro citizens. However, Day
felt that this is only partially
valid. To a certain extent, the
Negroes must seize their rights
rather than wait for them to
b<» granted

The New State

Invplicit in all this is Day's
conception of the state and of
the role of the state toward the
people. Traditionally, political
thinkers have seen the state as.
a necessary evil, designed to
ni.nntain peace and order with-
out infringing on the activities
of most of the citizens. In
Older to protect the citizen.^
from the improper use of the
state's power, the writers of
the Constitution devi-sed a
complicated system of checks
and balances, of civil liberties,
and of due process. Even in a
representative democracy,
where the state derives its
legitimacy from the people, we
still think of the government
as separate from and some-
what antagonistic to the peo-
ple. The politician, who repre-
sents the state, has to come to
the people for election every
so often, but afterward he can
return to the state.

Since the New Deal and the
beginning of the so-called wel-
fare state in 1932, the state has
become benevolent and human.
We no longer believe that they
who govern least govern best
We think rather that the gov-
ernment has a duty to grant
the minimum standards of
housing and education to its
citizens. We no longer feel we
have to protect ourselves
against the government that is
on our side But we still lye-
lieve that the state is out there,
that its interests are separate
from those of the people in
spite of its benevolence. We
think that it is humane because
it is in its best political interest
to bo so. not because it believes
in humanity. We still thuik

that politics is dirty, crooked,
and corrupt.

To Day and his colleagues,
however, the state would be
something very different. They
believe that the state has the
duty to care for its citizens.
And they think that the citi-
zens have a duty to be con-
cerned for the running of the
state. The state is no longer
"out there" but rather is iden-
tical to the sum total of its
citizens. When the state is a
reflection of the interests of the
people, there is no longer any
need for protecting the people
from the state. All people par-
ticipate in the democracy. The
individual should have a sense
of community with everyone.
Day believes that love and mu-
tual respect rather than power
should Ix? the basis of the
structure of the state.

Reality in Sex

(Continued from Page 3)

er. It does not help to make
rules to prevent people from
sleeping with each other. Rules
are eitlier broken or help to en-
courage unhcaltliy aspects of
sexual relatiijnships. Public
petting in dark rooms at par-
ties, unfulfilled relationships in
tile back rows in movie the
aters, lovelife in cars parked in
dark places, are products of the
society's hypocritical attitude.
It is obvious that prohibition
and moral damnation do not
solve the problems. Why not
try another more practical
method? Let us accept that
modern methods of contracep-
tion are almost 100% safe.

Medieval Inheritance

It is high time that we get

over the old medieval intor-
itance that a sexual meeting
between two people in love is
something unnatural and sin-
ful. Contraception is still re-
garded as an evil by a large
percentage of the population
and certainly by ollicial author-
ities. Birth control must be re-
garded as something natural
and a help for humanity and
not as an evil. It should be as
ordinary for a young girl to
obtain contraceptives as to buy
a toothbrush. We musrt face
the fact that young people have
sexual desires and that they
are going to express them re-
gardless of the rules, restric-
tions and moral examples in-
stituted to prevent this. It is
immoral to maintain a hypo-
critical attitude toward these
problems.

An Open Letter to the 1965
College Graduate
from Donald N. Frey,
Assistant General Manager,
Ford Division of
Ford Motor Company

.■>^-L^^y>: i'.-:-^-"-'

Donald N. Frey was awarded a bachelor's degree in metal-
lurgjcdl engineering by the University of Michigan in 1947
and a doctorate in 1950. One year later, he joined Ford
Motor Company as manager of the Metallurgical Depart-
ment in the Scientific Laboratory. In l%2, Dr. Frey was
appointed assistant general manager of {he Ford Division
with responsibility for all engineering, product planning
and purchasing activities. He is 41 years old.

America's automobile industry is in the midst of a challenging era, with pros-
pects of an even more exciting and demanding tempo in the years to come.
Ford Motor Company is determined to achieve leadership in all phases of its
operation. This leadership promises to bring lasting success to the company, its
employes and its stockholders.

It will take people to accomplish this objective. Engineering, finance, styling,
marketing, product planning, sales— all require people with the knowledge,
judgment and personal drive to avail themselves of the unprecedented oppor-
tunities offered by a great industry.

The automobile business is growing. More cars are being bought now than ever
before. With increases in population and consumer buying power, even more
will be bought in the future. Realizing this, Ford Motor Company seeks to
attract college graduates who have the capacity to grow with the company
and the market.

Right now, our plans call for employing about a thousand of the best 1965
graduates we can find, with all types of educational backgrounds. We need
specialists, but we also need persons with broad liberal-arts training who can
handle a wide variety of assignments. Actually, in oiur company, many gradu-
ates grow into jobs totally unrelated to their degrees. They have discovered
that Ford oflFers intellectually challenging opportunities for those with the
ability to seize them. We invite you to make the same discovery.

proved himself just as grubby
as wc are.

Little Old Youngsters

The effect of this is t*hat edu-
ration in our society produces
little old men at age fifteen,
who passively accept all they
are told. These young men have
learned to play ball, not to be
too much bothered by moral
considerations, just to take it
easy, plan for their future, and
look' forward to a life of com-
fortable retirement. On the
other hand, a few rebellious
youngsters learn not to believe
anything they are told. Their
parents cooly indulge the many
social critics: everyone seeks a
definition of himself, hears 'him-
self indicted, and relaxes: now
that he has been made to feel
j:uilty. he needn't change a bit.
So Vance Packard and Paul
Goodman and Fact magazine
are all in vogue. "If the social
tritics were effective," says
FeifTer "they'd be in jail with
the other Smith Act offenders."

Once we know our faults, we
needn't trouble ourselves to
correct them. "Nothing excites
IIS, nothing depresses us, be-
cause . . . we have left the
scene." "The machine and the
bomb have become Mama and
Papa." We are the guests in
their house, and we might as
well adjust to them, rather
than be rude and put them
down. Under these circum-
stances, Feiffer wonders wheth-
<r it is "so senseless to with-
draw, to not c^re." Perhaps it
jv psychopathic these days,
not to be psychopathic, smce
awareness may lose you your
job. In that case alienation is
a means of adaptation. To our
benumbed senses pleasure and
pain merge and become indis-
tinguishable: we are not sure
whether we are enjoying the
one or suffering the other. So
we may now indulge satire and
not be hurt by it. We are all
part of the team, and Jules
Feiffer ought not to mind bemg
"court subversive," since, as he
says, "Satire is no longer a
comment on the way we live.
Satire is the way we live.

So which side are you on.
brother? There is always the
tiagic chance that changing
sides is just shifting from port
to starboard on a capsizing
rowboat. The biggest thing 1
learned from Feiffer's talk is
that usual satire, the usual
jokes, the usual rebellioh is not
enough. We have to transcend
the cynical wisecrack, give up
even the witty and indignant
letter to fhe editor. As Feiffer
said, in answer to the question.
"Now what?" — you wnke up
in the morning and if you com-
mit yourself to life so far as to
get out of bed. then you ought
to go ahead and do what you
have to do, go ahead and try
to create some liveable unity
out of the mass of diverse and
seemingly degenerate materials
at hand. And you needn't have
too many illusions about how
much of the world youll save,
for even struggling is a kind of
success. And who in hell strug-
gles, anyway? T^e disen-
chanted, the disappointed, the
perverted, bums, dregs, and de-
prived The ones who struggle
are the ones who are forced to
make something out of the un-
likely materials life throws up
at them.

And much as I hate to seem
trivial, to bring a lovely ab-
straction out of the realm ol
Ideas and into our terms, 1 d
like to ask why can't we start
right here? Let's stop carping
at or ridiculing the radical-
middle directors of this parti-
cular institution. They are
dreadfully ludicrous enough,
trymg by a kind of juggling ac-l
to hold their flies closed and
pee at the same time. Why
don't we just ignore them,
leave to their task of building
a University, or whatever it is
they are doing, and try to make
out of our common life there
some living, creative, commun-
ity-in-revolt? That would be a
great experiment, to live the
part of men, not to join in any
organized finkdom to enforce
obscene, unhealthy, and in any
event unenforceable rules. We
will simply create our own
laws of living, in accordance
with our natures and our
claims against the broader so-
ciety we rebel against by the

very attempt to be ourselves.
Let us live as we must, not ac-
quiescing with the premature
death which society — Ameri-
can society, Brandeis terrified-
direetorate society — has in
store for us.

Youth, Life, Beauty!

Above all, let us not abandon
the dance of youth, which one
of Feiffer's dancing girls gives
up because it is too depressing
to think of the betrayal of in
nocence. How wonderful to ex-
periment that way on life, in a
most creative brotherhood-in-
freedom if possible, or defiant
and alone if necessary. Let us
make waves, and let them be
breakers! Jules Feiffer saw
some distant ray of light in
such radical frameworks as the
Ad Hoc Committee for a Triple
Revolution. The very night
Feiffer spoke, draft-resisters
spoke informally, students who
had travelled to Cuba discussed
what they had seen, the Social-
ist Club met. lovers had seciet
trysts in violation of some ir-
relevant rules. There is some
faint hope.

Drugs

(Continued from Page 2)

attempt to play around with
things they know little about
and this is exactly what we
don't want or need if we are
to make any .scientific headway
in this area. If the potential of
these substances is as great as
has been suggested we are re-
quired to proceed with caution
and with sensitivity in order
not to cause any further social
impediments to a scientifically
exciting research area.

Q: Who now controls the
psyched* lies and what is their
legal status?

A: The psychedelic drugs are
now neither under oftkial med-
ical control nor under legal en-
forcement control. However,
state laws may differ with re-
spect to a specific drug or plant
as is the case in Massachusetts
where peyote and any of its
derivitives including mescaline
are considered as narcotics.
These drugs are not available
on a prescription basis and
are classified as "experimental
drugs" by the Food and Drug
Administration. The morning
glory seeds are an exception
here since they are clearly not
drugs. Dr. Farnsworth's state-
ments must be regarded as rep-
resenting the aspirations of the
AM A with respect to the pos-
sibility of medical control of
an area that is not presently
under medical control.

Q: What do you think of Dr.
Farnsworth's suggestion that
the ingestion of any agent
taken or given to alter a per-
son's usual mental and emo-
tional equilibrium must be
looked on as a medical proce-
dure?

A: Well. I don't really think
Dr. Farnsworth means what he
says by that .statement, and if
he does we must face the pos-
sibility of adjusting ourselvt^s
to psychiatric control of smok-
ing, alcohol, coffee, anc tea. to
name but a few of the agents
normally taken to alter our
mental and emotional equili-
brium. As stated, his argu-
ment is ridiculous Just exactly
how we will classify the psy-
chedelic substances is one of
the most pressing issues facing
us and this is exactly the issue
that is begged by any group,
psychiatric, "beat" or religious
that wish to claim authority
over a presently ambiguous
area. What we really need is
more research directed to some
of the specific claims that have
been made, including my own.

sponsored American universi-
ties. "We hoped for others, —
one on the West Coast, one in
the Mid-West. Brandeis today
is in a position to think about
sequels in these two places. Fi-
nancially, this is not risky any-
more. The experience gained
by those active at Brandeis
could be utilized to establish
similar colleges elsewhere."

Dr. Goldstein, a resident of
Israel for the last three years,
pointed out that there is an ac-
tive interest in Brandeis in
Israel. "Israelis have an inter-
est in Brandeis because a strong
Brandeis indicates the strength
of the American-Jewish com-
munity — and Israelis would
like to see strong Jewish com-
munities in every country."

Dr. Goldstein also spoke of
his break with the Brandeis
group jn 1946 and Dr. Ein-
stein's association and then de-
parture from the group. But
both these subjects are ade-
quately and clearly diseus.«^ed

This is the ultimate in mod-
ern library protection. Fifteen
years ago, the library worked
on an honors system. As the
University grew, and the lib-
rary expanded, a charge-out
system and guard were installed
at the request of the Student
Council. The new system, if ac-
cepted, would give Goldiarb

Vandals

University, as has been ru-
mored. Any suspicious persons
are not plainclothesmen and
security should be notified of
their presence immediately.
The security guard at the front
entrance who had been check-
ing all cars entering campus is
now instructed not to check
cars, but only to remain alert
for any suspicious persons en-
tering campus.

The Administration is con-
sidering locking the rear gate
to the Cedarwood section of
Waltham that has been open
nightly as a convenience to
Brandeis students and faculty.
Mr. Abrams, who has suggested
this measure, believes that
many of the outside trouble-
makers have entered at that
gate.

Dean Zion reassured students
that they are safe on campus
at all times. The measures in
the July 16 security regulations
were meant as suggestions to
those who are uneasy, and are
not essential for safety.

The Dean's Office will begin
to formulate plans for a com-
prehensive security program
this week. This may involve
posting a guard in each quad-
rangle at night. Dean Zion
stresses that the vandalism
problem is symptomatic of the
larger problems that separate
the University from the town.
He suggested that the Univer-
sity and the student body con-
sider new programs, such as
tutoring in Waltham, that will
help create a better commu-
nity relationship.

Practical Suggestion

What then should we do? I
have one practical suggestion.
Take it or leave it. At least do
me the courtesy of thinking
about it. If we wish to engage
in maximally effective passive
protest — to make it painfully
clear to the Administration
that we are deeply perturbed
by the existing rules — then
I suggest the following —
namely, the establishment of a
new newspaper on this cam-
pus, not to compete with the
Justice, but rather to provide
students and Student Council
with a vehicle for intra-cam-
pus communication. This paper
would be distributed to stu-
dents, faculty, and Administra-
tion — and that's all. It would
enable actions, protests, ques-
tions — literally any form of
dissent — to find expression in
student journalism, without un-
duly arousing Administrative
sensitivities and thus serving
the sole function of eventually
cutting our own throats, as the
Justice has done time and
again. The time is ripe for the
establishment of such an organ.

I believe that if we carry
through this journalistic re-
form we will gradually rtduce
student -Administrative friction
— and significantly enhance
whatever possibiilties genuine-
ly exist for engaging in mean-
ingful protest and for achiev-
ing greater student-Adminis-
trative accord.

AIC Falls to Judges in Soccer, 3-2;
Tufts Tops Brandeis Soccermen, 84

By ALAN SEGAL

Dis[)layinj? one of their best team efforts of the year, the soccer team ed^ed
American International :5-2, at Gordon field, Saturday. The victory raised their overad
record to 4-2-2.

Eric Epstein, playing goalie
for the first time, made 13 saves
and prevented several apparent
AIC goals. Coaeh Hughes feels
that "his elToit gave confidence
to the team and was the prime
reason for the victory." Epstein
is the fourth goalie the hooters
have h.id tiiis season. The other
three, Shelley Glass, Winston
Coard. and Dave Epstein are
out with injuries Epstein, co-
captain of the basketball team
is out with a ruptured spleen
and will be lost for the season.

Late Scoring

Neither team managed to
score until late in the second
period when Bill Burbank reg-
istered the game's first goal to
give AIC a 1-U lead. At 3:00
of the third quarter, co-captain
Alan Weingrad dribbled up the
field and rulk-d in a shot to
even the score. Three and a
half minutes later Cadman
Mills tallied his third goal of
the season on a penalty kick.
Pete Barnett scored the last
Brandeis goal of the game at
C 30 of the (inal period as he
took a head pass from Wein-
grad and rolled it in for the
tally.

For most of the game, the
Judges headed, kicked, and
trapped well, but as Coach
Hughe said, "You have to play
all 88 minutes of the game and

can't slack off at the end." Dur-
ing the last six minutes the
hooters almost lost the game
playing sloppy defensive ball
and allowed AIC to close to
within one goal on a score by
Perrins. Epstein appeared to
have made another fine save
on the hard high kick, but the
momentum of the ball carried
him into the goal.

Throughout the game the
.Judges tried to score too often
from the inside and were con-
tinually stopped by AIC's bar-
rier type defense. More shots
should have been taken from
the outside. However, the front
line of Mills. Wilmon, Wallen-
Bryan. Weingrad. Barnett and
Don Obasun played well to-
gether. The team's ability to
work as a unit has improved
steadily all season. Injuries to
several key players have great-
ly hampered the team effort.
The latest injury was to Biole
Sobowale in the third period of
this game. So far this season
the same lineup has not been
used in any two games.

Halfbacks Excel

The halfbacks, co-captain
Dmitri Mavros, Dave Fleis-
chaker, and Chris McLaughlin,
work better than any other
unit. They all played good
games stopping many AIC
drives and keeping the ball in

With the intamiiral flaj,^ football season slightly more

However, at this point, the race '

team with the tightest defense,
aft«'r the Biorhcrns, is Shapiro
A. which has only allowed 22
points to be scored by the op-
position The ^iji\<, and the
Zekes each permitted only 26
points to be scored against their
drfonsive units.

The individual high-scorer of
the league at this point is Da-

who has been responsible for
38 of their points. Al Dingle,
also of the Biochems, has 30
points; Joe Perkins of the
Avengers — 28 points; Byron

Brandeis Routs
Babson Track
Club 17-42

The Brandeis track club
scored an impressive victory in
its first informal meet of the
season as they defeated Babson
17-42 Saturday.

Brandeis claimed the first
four positions in the rugged
three and one-half mile race.
Peter Cook, a graduate stu-
dent, finis'ned tirst in a time of
16:3;"). Page Painter, another
grad student, was second. Pete
Branigan '68 was third and Al
Gonzague '67 was fourth.

Other Brandeis finishers in-
cluded Cliris Ray. Harvev Ross,
Dr. Hofiner, Paul Edry and
Jon Friedman. Dr. Hoflner is
a professor in Mediterranean
Studies. He finished ninth.

Both Manny Goldman and

out with an injury until now,
and Dick Millett turned in
good performances at fullback.
With six players out with
injuries, the hooters lost to
Tufts 8-1, Tuesday. Wallen-
Bryan scored the only goal for
the Judges at 14:30 of the sec-
ond period. The Tufts goalie
made 13 saves while the com-
bined efforts of Glass and
Coard made 9 saves.

Dots and Dashes: For the
fourth time this year the
Judges overcame a 1-0 deficit.

The hooters have not lost a
home game this season winning
three and tying two.

In the eight games so far, the
soccermen have scored 19 goals
while their opponents have
scored 21.

The team has made six out of
nine penalty kicks while yield-
ing only 1 out of three to their
opponents.

In league competition the
l)ooters are 2-2-1. With ixvc
games left they still have a
chance for a tournament bid.

IS far from over and several
of the remaining nine teams
still have a chance to linish in
Oiu' of the top spots.

At this point the Biochems
havi' a [)erfect 4-0 record. They

Avengers, the S'l'U Dents, and
Les Grand Prix amassing a to-
tal of 112 points while onl.y al-
lowing their o p p o n e n t s to
score a total of 14 points
against them. This represents
the greatest number of points
scored by one team and the
least number of points scored
against a team.

Deroy has a 3-1 record; their
only loss coming at the hands
of the Avengers by a score of
28-0. They have victories over
Peter and the Wolves, the
Zekes, and the JelTs. Tied for
third with identical 2-1 records
are the JelVs and Shapiro A.
The Jeffs lost their opener to
Deroy, but rebounded to de-
feat Shapiro B-l and Peter and
the Wolves. The only team to
rout Shapiro A was the Aveng-
ers, while they tiave overpow-
ered Shapiro B-l and the
Ridge-Woods.

There is also a tic for fifth
place — between the Avengers
and Les Grands Prix. The
Avengers lost their first game
to the Biochems. fought to a
draw with Shapiro B-2. and
then finally triumphed over
Shapiro A and Deroy. Les
Grands Prix won their initial
contest over Peter and the
Wolves, tied the STUDents, de-

Memorial For
Rights Trio

Last summer Michael Schwer-
mer, James Chaney, and An-
drew Goodman were murdered
in Philadelphia, Mississippi.
These three — two Northern
whites and a Southern Negro;
a Protestant and two Jews —
seemed to demonstrate the par-
ticipation of people of all faiths
and races in the struggle for
equality.

To emphasize this, the Bran-
deis Hillel, Newman, and Stu-
dent Christian Associations are
together going to conduct a
unique memorial service for
the three Civil Rights workers
on November 18

The first part of the program
will be a production of the
Absurdist play Waiting: for
Godot by Samuel Beckett. The
theme of this play symbolizes
the long and tortuous road
which leads toward the elimi-
nation of racial and religious
barriers which separate men.

After the play, there will be
a memorial address, probably
by Robert Moses, the director
of the Mississippi Summer
Project. He will discuss the
meaning and efTect of the Proj-
ect during the past summer
and the job which remains.

After the program, repre-
sentatives of the three religious
groups will solicit contributions
for the continuance of the Mis-
sissippi Summer Project and
similar efforts by the Student
Non-violent Coordinating Com-
mittee.

compared to the "whine" of
current American political ex-
tremists. This hecomes particu-
larly apparent in the "alTection-
ate villification" of American
pohiical campaign, which of-
ten, however, leaves real .scars.

The President then examined
the use of dissent in I lie aca-

dissent must be associated with

cussion. Decrying tlie "memory

that has lead to personal
attacks involving both Miss
Arendt and her reviewers.

President Sachar then fo-
cused his attention on what he
termed the malicious criticisms
by students of administrators.
He compared the irresponsibil-

of Admissions. They hail from 34 states and 20 foreign
areas; only nine states, however, are represented by more
than 10 students, with New York (152) and Massachusetts
(111) far out in front. «fr —

A Speech in Time

That last Wednesday's convocation was not in fact the
dialogue that the students and faculty members had hoped
it would be is unfortunate. Of much greater significance,
however, is the fact that, for the first time in four years,
the President of the University has made a special effort
to speak to the students on a subject both he and they
iijid significant.

President Sachar has divorced himself for too long
from any sort of direct contact with the student body as
a whole. He is too often conceived of as a President in
absentia, who pauses from his fund-raisinij missions only
long enough to dictate another rule.

This is not as it should be, and Wednesday's convoca-
tion, we believe, may be the beginning of a step away from
this conception. That we do not agree with many of his
criticisms is immaterial when they are considered as an
effort by the President to present his view to the students
in a direct, personal way. In this sense, his speech may be
seen as a re-entry by the President into the Brandeis
community from which he has too long been a stranger.
Ivet us hope that there will be more such convocations, ami
that these may lead to a new definition of that long abused
phrase "meaningful dialogue."
Dr. Sachar, it's about time.

The Open Society

One of Dr Sachnr's subjects last week in his "dialogue"
with the assembled "stuck-nl leaders" was the relations^hip be-
tween the cily of Walthain and Brandeis University. He pointed
out that an article in last week's issue of The Justice was in
considerable conflict with what he termed "the fundamentalist
Christian" beliefs of many of the residents. Dr. Sachar as-
serted, perhaps accurately, that the anti-Brandeis feelings
cnjjendered by this sort of conflict are detrimental to Brandeis
development of the University, somewhat easier.

This, coupled with the President's assertion that censor-
ship of student publications is the farthest thing from his
mind, leads us to believe that Dr. Sachar would like to see
these beliefs concern biolof»ical, chemical, moral or philosophi-
would make living with Waltham, and thus expansion and
development of the University somewhat easier.

This kind of thinking is inconsistent with the goals of a
great liberal-arts university. A university does not exist to
expand or to acquire land; neither does it exist in order to
provide the town in which it is located with employment oppor-
tunities and newspaper copy. A great liberal arts university
exi.Ms preci.«^ely to call into question, and to suggest alterna-
tives for. the prevalent beliefs of contemporary society, whether
these beliefs concern biological, chemical, moral or philosophi-
cal matters.

The Justice intends to continue its policy of providing a
place where ideas, no matter how unconventional, may be
suggesteil and discussed. We apologize in advance for the
trouble we may cau.<«;e the President in acquiring more land
at future Waltham City Council meetings.

Cops, Not Custodians

The University is to be congratulated for the police meas-
ures taken to protect the Brandeis campus from Halloween
vandals. But although a police force augmented by seven off-
duty Waltham policemen did successfully prevent Halloween
destruction, this does not represent an effective attempt at
curbing the vandalism which has been plaguing the campus
in recent weeks. An interim police force is not the answer to
the overall security problem at Brandeis.

Nor do the physical improvements suggested by Dean
Mornpsey constitute an answer. Better lighting in the gym park-
ing lot only enables a hubcap stealer to find hubcaps more
easily, unless there is a policeman present. New fences keep
out only stray animals, unless there is a policeman present.
And better lighting at the Golding access gate only allows a
trespasser to see where he is going, unless there is a policeman
present.

And this is the problem — there Is no policeman present.
Only one officer is on duty at night, and he, besides patrolling
campus, must also perform the functions of watchman, ambu-
lance driver, and parking lot attendant. He cannot be expected
to patrol the gym while checking a door at Olin-Sang, nor can
he be expected to patrol the Cedarwood fence while ticketinc
cars in East.

Thus, what is needed is not new fences, new lights, new
dormitory monitors, or new committees (although the latter
Beem to abound). What is needed is new cars, new full-time
policemen, new patrolling procedures, and new responsibilities,
under which a Security policeman is a policeman, and not a
watchman or a glorified custodian. Committee meetings will
never solve the vandalism problem, and talking will not make
it go awa^r.

To Pat Barbanell and
Melvyn Freilicher:

Now, look, be reasonable. If
dress regulations were the real
explanation for the "something
was wrong" feeling we had at
the Jackie Washington Concert,
it would be a poor reflection on
Brandeis people. If a tie and
jacket or a skirt instead of dun-
garees can squelch the spirit
of an audience, how enthusias-
tic can it be in the first place?
I think dress regulations are
entirely out of place in a folk
concert, too; but the fault of

that evening's entertainment
lies elsewhere.

For instance, the sound
equipment was so poor that en-
thusism was dampened, pri-
marily, because no one could
hear the performers. Further-
more, the air conditioning or
whatever it was, rattled The
noise produced by this appara-
tus was annoying both to the
audience and to the perform-
ers. The lighting was ridicu-
lous! Theo Bikel effects in-
deed! How can anyone be so
callous to invite performers to
give a concert under these con-
ditions? . . . Incidentally, the

second half was much better

Heliiisl«y Lecture

Search for Sincerity

Barbara Appell

Music Lecture

Gould on Schoenberg

Last Tuesday evening Michael Novak, author of a "^ ^^^^ FRUCHTER

study on the second session of the ecumenical council, ^^^ evening several years ago, a young and extremely talented pianist, after

The Open Church, presented the third lecture in the many years of hard work, gave a recital of Pach's Goldberg Variations, and the next

search for ecumenism

Two philosophical problems
face ecumenism: how can men
who conceive of God differently
relate to the same God? How
can separate traditions effect
the belief in God? The answer
to these problems lies in the
concept of intentionality. In-
tentionality is the drive to seek
out understanding. It is mani-
fested ia the desperate search
for answers to burning ques-
tions. Socrates' quest for truth,
Buber's struggle to find the
Eternal Thou, and Freud's
search for the key to the mind
are all examples of intention-
ality.

Trinkets and Tools

Intentionality is seen most
frequently in religious thought,
for nothing so haunts man as
the desire to find God. As God
is a representation of the high-
est goals each man has set for
himself, each individual's con-
ception of the Divine Being is
separate and distinct from that
of everv other being.

Theology attempts to unite
these beliefs. However, the ar-
ticulation of belief, the "trin-
kets and tools" as it were, serve
only to obscure the ability
which produced them.

Novak's conception of ecu-
menism includes every religion.
Thus he avoids the complaint
of such theologians as Kaplan
that ecumenism as the Catho-
lic Church presents it is a one-
sided attempt to convert the
rest of the world. Novak has
no concern with dogmatic
schemas or elaborate ritualistic
devotions within any one
church, but rather the crux of
religion, the belief in God, oc-
cupies his attention.

If people are concerned with
intentionality, an intentionality
which implies utmost honesty,
they will strap away the syn-
tax and rationally determine
the answers to the tormenting
questions of religion. Novak's
major point was that ecumen-

ism is doomed to failure if it
depends on institutionalized
religion. Dialogue, to Novak,
consists in the discussion be-
tween two believers in inten-
tionality about their insights
into religion. These believers
will have a meeting of minds
solely on the basis of their
shared desire to deal with the
problem completely honestly.
This mental sympathy is the
first and most crucial step on
the road to ecumenism.

Yes and Tradition

This discussion presupposes
one vital fact: that all the par-
ticipants in the dialogue are
equal. Thus, Novak stated, ev-
ery man who pursues honesty is
equal to a man with similar
pursuits. All on the path to
truth travel as one.

Gould on Schoenberg

A few weeks ago, Mr. Gould
gave a lecture at Wellesley
College on the music of Arnold
Schoenberg.

The lecture combined fact-
ual information, expert opin-
ion, and brief illustration on
the piano. Mr. Gould has done
extensive research and much
thinking about Schoenberg's
composing and influence on
contemporary music. "We are
really too close to Schoenberg
to know whether his music
will last," he says, "but I can
say with certainty that all who
compose at all today compose

others and I were asking him.

Mr. Gould obviously is quite

aware of liis "public image" so

to speak. He is often cautiht in

candid shots vvhile engros.sed

in music and appears as the

"young man with shaiit4y hair."

Just before his picture was

snapped, he was quick to say

(with a smile, of course), "Is

my hair combed?" He also

differently becau.se of him."

Mr. Gould finds that "Schoen-
berg's life as a composer can
be divided into three distinct

periods. During the first twelve
years, beginning in 1908, Wag-
ner and Mahler believed in
him! . . . During the second pe-
riod, an intellectual force crept
into his music." Mr. Gould here
illustrated this by playing a
portion of the tightly organ-
ized second symphony, where
Schoenberg progressed to the
use of the twelve lone tech-
nique, "using logic to justify
his use of total dissonance."
Here, Mr. Gould illustrated
with portions of Schoenberg's
Piano Concerto, Opus 42.

Mr. Gould is a dynamic views' on" t h^ lublect
speaker in the sense that the
material he presents is com-

filetely unbacked and scholar-
y. He is also interesting to
watch. He appears to be com-
pletely relaxed, and totally un-
concerned if his hair falls in
his face while he is engrossed
in an idea. He spoke with his
cuff-links undone, having an
apparent lack of concern for
such formalities, so that he

The extent of growth has

varied from group to group and
is hard to measure exactly be-
cause attendance figures are
rarely taken at religious serv-
ices. However, rough estimates
of the number of active mem-
bers are available.

Of the three organizations,
the Newman Club has shown
the greatest increase, doubling
its membership in the past two
years, according to Vice-Presi-

dent Eileen Horton. The group
now has approximately eighty
members, about fifteen of
whom work on the committees
and attend executive board
meetings. Several of these fif-
teen are not Catholic and many
non-Catholics attend the Club's
functions.

Recently, the organization
has made several changes in
the Sunday Mass to make the
service more meaningful to the
worshippers and to attract new
members. The altar, which was
formerly arranged so that the
priest had his back to the con-
gregntion, has l>een changed so
that he now faces the people.

Backstage with Gould

Perhaps an equally interest-
ing part of the evening oc-
curred when I went backstage
and was able to meet Mr.
Gould. He was in good spirits,
very friendly, and bursting
with information and opinion.
Even though his cab was wait-
ing for him. he stayed until the
latest possible moment, patient-
ly answering the questions two

laughed
about the

he goes.

The most rewarding mo-
ments began when Mr. Gould,
in answer to my question about
his approach to Bach on the
piano as opposed to that on the
harpsichord, gave many of his

"It is im-
portant to remember that Bach
on the piano is not the same as
Bach on the harpsichord. When
performing Bach on the piano,
thus, one must not try to cre-

— Charles Siegel

enhanced this November 4-7 by a trip to the Loeb Theater
in Cambridge. Being shown there is the Harvard Dra-
matic Club's presentation of Arthur Miller's "A View
From the Bridge." It is an enjoyable, occasionally quite a
moving production.

This is not Miller's greatest*-

is
play, having in no way the
universal significance of "Death
of A Salesman", nor the sus-
tained dramatic appeal of "The
Crucible" or "All My Sons."
Despite this, the Harvard pro-
duction, highlighted by a bril-
liant performance by Bill Seres
as Eddie, attains a level of in-
tense emotion and brings out
the basic theme of the power-
lessness of reason to stop the
inevitable flow of events.

Reason vs. Fate

Daniel Freudenberger as the
lawyer, Alfieri, at first im-
presses the audience as an un-
inspired performer. It grad-
ually becomes evident, though,
that his rational, often lethargic
approach to his role makes
sense and intensifies the theme.
Alfieri is the voice of the law,
of reason, of modern intelligent
man. The passions which moti-
vate the characters he describes
are beyond his comprehension,
and, despite his law and order,
he cannot act to avert the trag-
edy which he knows will ensue.

A Brooklyn dock-worker,
Eddie, and his wife Beatrice
(played sympathetically and
well by Brandeisian Anne
Bernstein) play host to two re-
latives from Italy, who have
recently entered America illeg-
ally. Before too long, one of
them, Rodolpho (Lorenzo Weis-

man). falls in love with the
Brooklyn couple's niece, Cath-
erine, whom Eddie and Beat-
rice liave brought up.

Eddie is incensed, for he
cannot understand Rodolpho's
personality, his singing, his
blond hair, his lack of rugged
manliness. Besides, Eddie liim-
.self is violently attracted to his
newly-grown-up niece and
hates the thought of losing her.
He rationalizes by reading in
dis'honorable motives to Rodol-
pho's advances.

It is here that Eddie, passion-
ate and unthinking, concerned
with his own loss of respect in
his wife's eyes — Miller has
added the mysterious element
of his impotency at this time,
a brilliant and dramatic stroke
— confronts the rational, law-
loving Alfieri.

Eddie!

The lawyer senses the out-
break of pa.ssion that is likely
to ensue but he cannot sway
the dock worker from his irra-
tional anger. There is some-
thing especially significant in
his yelling out "Ekidie! Eddie!
Eddie!" as the latter rushes out
of his office.

The Newman Club has also
sponsored many programs this
year including a clambake, a
trip to a Trappist monastery,
and a reception for the Peace
Corps trainees. These function.*?
have been very popular and
well attended. Among the
events planned for the future
are a supper meeting on No-
vember 13 and a trip to Boston
in December to hear Handel's
"Messiah." Also in December,
the members will go carolling
at various hospitals in the area.

Hillel. Brandeis' largest re-
ligious organization, has also
shown remarkable growth over
the past few years. The com-
bined attendance at the two
Friday night services, accord-
ing to President Jonathan Ma-
lino, has been over one hundred
almost every week, a figure
which he described as a "tre-
mendous increase." The Friday
night dinners havf* also grown
in popularity from an average
of forty participants last year
to about sixty-five this year.
The regular Hillel meetings
now draw over forty people
and there are aV)out thirty par-
ticipants in the four Hillel
cour.ses offered in Hebrew and
Yiddish. The first lecture which
they sponsored this year, given
by Dr. Mordecai Kaplan, drew
over 1 .50 people, whereas many
past Hillel lectures have been
rather unpopular among stu-
dents.

According to Mr. Malino. the
increase in membership may

The Sandbo.K" by Edward Albee, the first of the
throe plays done this weekend by the Brandeis Tfieatre
Arts Department, was a barely adecpiate performance A.^
the play itself is pitifully short to develop sufficiently the
cosmological truths it seems to be trying to express it
requires a rigidly consistent and integrated pre.sentat'ion
to be effective. This was lack-^

ing. It seemed that the inter- ~ ~

pretation of the meaning of
each character, and the fact of
each line, was approached in
terms of its immediate effec-
tiveness upon the audience
rather than its thematic impor-
tance. The only part done really
well was that of "Mommy"
played by Leslie Garber, who
was consistently effective with-
out pushing. On the other hand,
Arthur Boehm as "Daddy", was
painfully stiff and self-con-
scious. Both Allan Waldmari
and Jeffrey Jacobs as the
"Younj? Man" and the "Mu-
sician" respectively were ade-
quate in their rather small
roles. Susan Abramowitz as
"Grandma", the mainstay of the
play, was unsatisfactory. She
looked very convincing, but
her line delivery vacillated
from line to line between ex-
cellent realism and equally
good stereotype as the mood
struck her. This managed to be
very entertaining, but meaning-
less.

"The Tiger" by Murray
Schisgal was exceptionally well
done. Admittedly the play pro-
vides the actors more lines to
work with, but the excellence
of this production was still due
to the ability of Judith Saclis
and Eugene Epstein. Movement
was generally natural and un-
obstrusive as it should have
been, and wasn't in the "Sand-

box". ImmcKiiately after their
entrance, Mr. Epstein and Mi.s.i
Sachs created the illusion of
reality that is essential to any
effective thealricul perform-
ance. Except for a very few
isolated occasions when Mr.
Epstein let hi.s flow of words
get ahead of him. this illusion
was faullles.s. Above and be-
yond tills, both characters were
very funny. Mr. Epstein, whose
comic technique effectively ein-
l>odies a combination of Charlie
Chaplin and Peter Sellers, was
impressive; but the evening an
a whole was taken by Mi.ss
Sachs. Her characterization of
a young suburban housewife

"The Collection" by Harold
Pinter is a more exciting pl.«y
than either of the others. The
stage, involving two complete

was well done and u.sed effec-
tively. In fact, good sets and
staging were in evidence in all
three plays. The lighting, which
was also getierally good, man-
aged to run through the many
changes relatively smoothly.
However, in spite of this admi-
rable technical work, tin* F>l «y

EDITOR'S NOTE: The following is a review of the hook

Beacon Press.

The story of who and what is SNCC can be told, in
essence, in the following dialogue which took place be-
tween a sheriff and a SNCC worker involved in a voter

ing is for a chance to help make
those policies which affect
them. They should be granted
this right for the same reason
we grant the right to vote to
all citizens regardless of their
expertize; because people
should have a say about the
policies and people that govern
them. The students are reason-
able people, and will react rea-
sonaljly to administration and
faculty pressures if they are
handled with respect and pre-
sented with tlie facts.

Long was helpful because he
defined the problems that beset
the American private univer-
sity. Problems cannot be solved
until they are defined. He said
that the university depends on
outside resources for its money.
It has to fi^ht with these out-
siders for every drop of money
it gets and every drop of free-
dom it gives. Tliese people pay
the bills. They therefore have a
right to establish policies. There
are certain things a university
can fight for. It can fight for
academic and intellectual free-
dom. It cannot fight for social
freedom with out loosing an
intolerable amount of money. It
is to appease these donors that
the administration has been
driven to enact unpopular
parietal rules. All discussions
about an ideal university and
tripartite government should be
made in this context.

The pnelists all agreed that
the job of the faculty is to
teach, the job of the students
is to learn, and the job of the
administration is to raise mon-
ey. The question is, what is the
priority that should be given
to each of the branches and its
function? While not denying
prerogative of the adminis-
tration on whatever necessary
to raise the necessary money,
I believe that the priorities
should be established by all
three divisions. These prob-
lems should be worked out in
dialogue among the three
branches of university mem-
bership. With such priorities
established, the balance be-
tween freedom and responsi-
bility become meaningful.

Tradition is the biggest ob-
tacle to this intentionalist semi-
nar. Noval^ declared however
that the fundamental act of
faith is positive and that the
verbalization of that yes is for-
ever subservient to variation.
Tradition losts its importance
when one reduces it to the
mere acting out of faith.
Though each person is respon-
sive to his own tradition, even
the strongest tradition will melt
away when faced with a devo-
tion to intentionalism, to seek-
ing out the unvarnished truth.
When ecumenism becomes re-
duced to the level of individu-
als earnestly discussing God,
then it can be achieved.
Getting to Know Us

This lecture was, without
question, the best of the first
three given. It stayed to the
point, did not try to overstate
its case, and, most importantly.

fr-

it did not ignore all the rami-
fications of its topic. Though
Mr. Novak dealt with his topic
with all the intentionalism ia
his (obviously) idealistic na-
ture, he did not try to belittle
any of the problems facing ecu-
menism, nor did he paint a per-
fectly rosy picture of its
chances.

Visibly nervous at the start,
Mr. Novak seemed to warm up
to his audience, and during the
question period provided some
valuable insights into the sec-
ond session of the Ecumenical
Council. His perceptive com-
ment on the session was that
the Roman Catholic Church for
the last ninety years at least
was more Roman than Catho-
lic, The Council is now trying
to correct this.

Ecumenism is more than just
one church's desire to unite all
faiths. It is the manifestation
of man's evergrowing need to
understand his fellow, before
it is too late.

(Continued from Front Page)
ttated that "proud words" can
never be called back, and that
the "nailed boots" of proud
words leave scars which can
liever heal.

In an earlier speech to an as-
sembly of student leaders, the
President spoke about student
morale, campus security meas-
ures, town-gown relations, and
Ftudent government. The first
problem he discussed was that
of "maintaining student mo-
rale." He stated his belief that
the lack of an adequate student
union building was in part "re-
sponsible for student restless-
ness." He reminded his listen-
ers that the administration has
acquired the land for the build-
ing and is planning to build a
•'wonderful swimming pool."

The President admitted that
•Tm stumped" about the prob-
lems associated with campus
security. He said some vandal-
ism has been caused by stu-
dents, some of whom have been
apprehended. Security difficul-
ties are also part of an increas-
ing problem with "the commu-
nity itself."

Dr. Sachar then directed his
speech to the alleged misun-
derstanding about scholarships.
He said "Brandeis is second
only to Harvard" in the per-
centage of students receiving
financial aid. He pointed out
that the University pays out
more than $100,000 per year in
student employment, $200,000
per year in interest-free loans,
and more than $700,000 in
scliolarships. President Sachar
also pointed out that, in order
to raise sums of money this
great, he must spend approxi-
mately 100 nights a year away
from the University, but in-
sisted that the University and
he are willing to bear this bur-
den in order to insure that
Brandeis may enroll students
without regard to their finan-
cial condition.

The President then spoke of
the University's relations with
the people of Waltham. "Our
image with the community is
nut a good one," he said. He
then asked the students to co-
operate in the administration's
effort to win the support and
sympathy of the local residents.

Sachar said that he would
talk about student government
at a later meeting, and pointed
out that the administration has
no desire to "govern by liat."
There is, he noted, "an honest
disagreement" over whether
students have sufficient "ex-
perience and competence" to
govern the University. It is his
opinion that they lack "a large
measure of administrative
know-how ' that is necessary in
the running of a University as
large and as complex as Bran-
deis.

also be auctioned, and students
are encouraged to donate items
of all degrees of desirability.
Other events of the week in-
clude a Dessert Night, when
exotic delicacies will be sold at
the Brandeis dining halls, a
faculty reception followed by
International Night dinner, and
Cabaret Night on Friday, De-
cember 11. The final event of
the week will be Work Day on
Saturday, December 12. During
this day Brandeis students will
volunteer their services to
clean, cook and make repairs
at the homes of professors and
students. In addition, students
will be given the opportunity
to work for local merchants.
All the money thus earned will
be directly contributed to the
week's funds. Work Day will
end with the Brandeis-Harvard
basketball game to be held at
Harvard.

Students are invited to con-
tribute their services to Work
Day and Project Outreach.
Lists will soon be available for
this purpose.

Clearing

(Continued from Page 2)
We hope that the President
will realize that his remarks last
Wednesday might have been
more accurate and less "proud' .
No, we are not "unhappy ' in
the sense that Mrs. Roosevelt
described Pegler. We are not
cynical sensationalists. We try
not to be irresponsible, and we
fear that dissent of any kjnd,
especially at its most effective,
is often equated with irrespon-
sibility. ^ ,.

We are struggling to figure
out what makes the "responsi-
ble" people of the "real world
tick And we trust that last
Wednesday's meeting is not a
typical example.

of the group. Among these are
the holding of formal meetings
as opposed to the rather un-
organized style of past years
and the reorganization of the
publicity staff with representa-
tives in each dormitory. The
special programs run by Hillel
have also been enlarged. The
joint Brandeis-Wellesley pro-
gram is being expanded and a
cultural presentation for Chan-
ukah is being planned.

The Student Christian Asso-
ciation has not yet compiled its
membership list for this year,
according to President Paul
Broeker. However, S.C.A. too
is believed to have shown an
increase in membership over
the past few years. The attend-
ance has been increased partly
as a result of the interest shown
in the series of experimental
services led by Dr. Paul Lee.
These services include the one
Sunday, October 18, which fea-
tured folksinger.s Ian and
Sylvia. Planned for the future
are further folk services, jazz
services, and dance services.
Also being planned are a medi-
tation period as a memorial to
the late President Kennedy on
November 22. and a service to
honor the COFO workers in-
volved in this year's Mississippi
Summer Project.

grown-up's darling, the coach's
dream player, and the apple of
every professional eye. It is
this world of easy success that
clutches at his ego, befogs his
perception, and teaches him
the modern lesson that human
reality is too much for a pure
fellow to stand. The indulged
child strikes for personal free-
dom through whatever modes
and perversions of violence the
adult world has taught it to
comprehend. The iforbidden
words are whispered up and
down the hallway:
Teacher, teacher, I declare,
I can see your underwear
And if no comment comes from
teacher, the cry becomes louder
and sounds more like an
obscenity than a sneeze. The
final obscenity is Life itself, and
the final school Authority to be
cuckolded is Death.

Sadistic Fantasies

How else can we explain
Larncr's sadi.stic fantasies,
nearly all directed against
stupid professors whose wives
have late dates with students
and whose babies never wear
diapers? This is rebellion
against Professor Daddy with a
vengeance — an odd kind of
vengeance because Dad's only
crime was to relax the rules a
bit, desegregate the dormitory,
and tell Son that the boy had

nothing to do with the mess the
world is in. Maybe Dad does
speak in cliches, but Son's
words are cliches too — even
if they are shorter and nastier
and only come at the end of
Dad's sentences. Perhaps Dad
told Son that the World was
covered with Bright Green
Cloth, and that Son could take
the Big Car, put Mom in the
front seat, and drive into one of
the Side Pockets. Somehow the
Bomb and the Space Race and
Truth got all mixed up with it,
and first think you know Dad
was under the wheels, and Mom
had been cut up into little
pieces.

It may all be a joke aimed
at the Judges, but all the same

Arthur Miller's contribution to
this dramatic theme — as old as
Sophocles — is well handled
by the Loeb players. The direc-
tion (Peter Skolnik) rarely
fails, and the sets (John Ander-
son) are used effectively to con-

nology to this domestic tragedy.

DIAL GT&E FOR PROGRESS

At GT&E, we've macte diversification pay
off in all-around growth. That's because
we've concentrated on related fields of
operation. For Instance, yesterday's met-
allurgical advance is today's improved
semiconductor and tomorrow's superior
communications system.
This technok)gical chain of events fol-

lows through the entire GT&E structure
and accounts for our continued progress
in the field of total communications by
sight and sound . . . radio and TV, voice
and data transmission, automation and
control.

Through research, manufacturing and
operations, GT&E has become one of

America's foremost companies in terms
of dollar sales, revenues, and diversity
of products.

As a young and aggressive company
with no limit to its growth, GT&E is an
organization you may wish to think of in
the light of your own future.

junior was involved in 4:i Quaker i)lays and carried in 28
of the ol rus fling plays the Red men attempted.

Cha-Cha Offense

The conclusion was foregone after the first half. The
home team led 7-0 but Penn had made only one first down.
Penn employs a cha-cha offense — I, 2, [\, kick. And they
followed this routine throughout the contest as they (well,
Molloy) punted nine times. The Cantabs had only to find
themselves after half-time and romp the rest of the way.

Ivy football is not the best in the nation. But there is
more to a Harvard game than the plays. There is the rich
Ivy tradition present — the alumni, the money, the "intel-
lectual elite," the successful, the "spirit", and the reserved
optimism which climbs the hallowed Ivy walls on Soldiers
Field. Yale, l*rinceton, Dartmouth, Brown, Harvard, even
Columbia, exude this "Ivyness". It's more than skin deep
— it has a si)ecial character all its own.

* * *

Yale or Princeton could never rival Ohio State or
Notre Dame on the gridiron. But they are the football
powers of the east along with liV and Syracuse. They be-
long in a separate class because they are not mass-produc-
tion factories. Yet they remain unique — each Ivy school
has a certain hallmark. It is more than tradition, academic
excellence, "snob ap|)eal" or haughtiness.

Perhaps Brandeis can take a lesson from the Ivies. A
positive lesson, that is.

While President Sachar was speaking of the Athenian
AcroiK)lis, Notre Dame, the Puritans, censorship and other
assorted vagaries, a handful of Brandeisians were watch-
ing the Brandeis siK'cer team registering its fifth victory
over Hartford, ;5-l, last Wednesday. While the President
was speaking of image and Waltham, these boys on the
Brandeis soccer scjuad were playing their hearts out as
they have been doing all season.

The Judges have had one of their most successful
seasons in history as they now stand at 5-;?-2-. This could
he the winningest season in Brandeis soccer history if the
Ju<iges take any two of the remaining contests. And as
the season progresses, the team has become a cohesive
unit — working together, passing, setting-up shots, and
showing an esprit de corps.

Dave Fleischaker and Chris McLaughlin deserve recog-
nition for their fine play all seavson. Dave, a junior from
Oklahoma City, has been playing the last five games with
a bad foot. But he has stayed in there and playe<I his heart
out. F'leischaker is tough and can take the punishment
inflicted on him.

Mclx-uighlin is president of the sophomore class and
the Judges' center halfback. Chris, from Woodbridge,
Conn., has been in every minute of every game and has
been the key to the Judges' fortunes this year. With Co-
Capt. Dimitri Mavros. he has kept the squad together.

The foreign contingent has been very effective this
year. Cadman Mills is the Judges' leading scorer. Dan
Obasun has had a foot in all of the team's victories. Wilmon
IWallen-Bryan has shown his full potential in several in-
stances. Dick Millett has done a fine job at fullback. He
is only a freshman and has a good future.

Norwich this season.

The Brandeis boolers man-
aged to keep the Norwich of-
fense stifled for 84 continuous
minutes of good, clean soccer
as the Cadets scored in the
first and last two minutes of
the contest.

Norwich's first tally came
with only 1:15 gone in the
game as Bernie Carpenter
lofted a 25-yard kick towards
the goal. Brandeis goal-keeper
Eric Epstein drifted back as
the ball appeared to be sailing
over the crossbar. Suddenly
it dropped and Norwich had a
1-0 lead which it never relin-
quished.

The next 84 minutes were
marked by hard play on both
sides. The Judges could not
break through the tough Nor-
wich defense headed by Co-
captains Bill
Crittenden at
Dave Eleischake
left halfback, led the Judges'
attack. Norwich goalie Joel
Kobert made 11 saves.

Track Club Organized;
Hopes for Varsity Status

\\\ MARTY I'ENSTKR

With the elimination of var-*

sity track at Brandeis, several
interested members of the de-
funet track team organized a
track and cross-country club
this year. Besides promoting
track at the university in the
absence of a regular intercol-
legiate team, the club has two
fundamental goals: to show the
interest and enthusiasm for this
sport in the school and to im-
press the administration and
faculty committee on athletics
with the need for reinstatement
of track at Brandeis.

Moml)ership in the club has
been extended to the entire
Brandeis community. The pres-
ent list of 20 active members
includes several graduate stu-
dents and one faculty member.
The club meets seven days a
week from 3:45-6:00 on week-
days and 10:30-12:00 on week-
ends. According to the rules of
the club, a member must at-
tend a minimum of three work-
outs a week.

A major problem facing the
club is the lack of a coach, al-
though the older members of
the club, because of their
familiarity with the sport, have
partially assuinfd tliis post.
Lack of facilities will be an-
other obstacle facing the club.
If the wooden track is to be as-
sembled at all, it will have to
be done by student volunteers.

In the immediate future the
club will enter a team in the
Greater Boston Cross-Country
Meet on November 3 and will
tentatively meet Boston State
at Brandeis on November 11.
For the coming indoor and out-
door track season the track club
will have an AAU affiliated
status, thus permitting it to
run in three Boston Garden
meets.

The only other prerequisite
for membership in the club, is
a strong desire on the individu-
al's part to participate in track.

Most of its members have little
or no previous experience
Every member of the team will
have a chance to participate in
each cross country and track
meet.

Perhaps the most significant
thing that the club has accom-
plished is proper scheduling of
opponents. The results of the
Babson meet seem to indicate
this fact. The members have no
desire to meet such schools as
Brown, Harvard or the Univer-
sity of Massachusetts, but ra-
ther wish to compete against
AAU clubs and colleges of com-
parable size and stature.

In contrast to the small num-
ber of participants in previous
years, this year there has been
an outpouring of both athletes
and enthusiasm.

University Library

To Meet the Population Explosion

Goldfiirb Library officials have taken steps to increase the seating capacity of
the library as a result of its increased use this term. During midterms last week stu-
dents at times occupied over 95'; of the seats. The library has ordereci sixty new chairs
for existing table-space which will be ready for final exam cramming and is studying
Otlier measures.

Due to the increase in the student body more students use the library than ever
before. Many students

are not

availing themselves of the
library resources, but are doing
simple textlxjok reading that
could be done elsewhere. The
library was not designed to
serve as a study hall, but to ac-
commodate those who need
library material. To provide
space for those who must work
at the library, the Dean of Stu-
dents Office has arranged for

the Shiftman Humanities Cen-
ter to be open on weekday eve-
nings as a study hall. The build-
ing is available until 1 A.M.
and is only sparsely occupied at
present.

Mr. Louis Schreiber. Direc-
tor of Administrative Services,
said that if responsible student
groups asked him to crack
down on noise he would oblige,

Brandeis Buys Land for
Sports Center from City

Brandeis University acquired for $56,000 a six acre
tract of land on South Street adjacent to the gymnasium
troni the City of Waltham, last Monday.

This action terminates almost two years of negotia-
tion with the City. It is part of a package plan which gives
Brandeis the South Street tract, the four acre reservoir
near the library, and the water*

"but this would be an admission
by students that they are not
mature enough to police them-
selves." Mr. Schreiber expects
that when the new Student
Union is completed directly op-
posite the library many stu-
dents will socialize there, re-
lieving the overcrowded lib-
rary.

If overcrowding reaches the
saturation point before the new
building is finished, the library
is prepared to take steps to in-
crease study capacity. The sixty
new chairs will be placed
around the larger tables which
can accommodate six people,
although most now only have
room for four.

If this is insufficient students
will be forbidden to reserve
places by strewing unneeded
bof)ks across a table These
books will be removed. It is

Change Rooiii^

There appear to be two dis-
cerniole trends in regard to
student housing this year. First,
more students are living ofT-
campus; second, those who are
on campus appear to be more
anxious to change rooms.

The number of students liv-
ing olT-campus this year has in-
creased from '36 men and IJO
women to 112 men and 60:
women. A major factor in this I
rise has been the extension of '
ofT-campus privileges to the
Junior class and some Sopho- |
mores. Only Seniors and those |
with medical or psychological
excuses were permitted to live I
off-campus last year. Because I
of the rise in the number of
students living ofT-campus, the
housing shortage which was
supposed to have plagued the
university this year has been
avoided and there are several
empty rooms on campus.

The dormitory system has
run into a problem with room
changes. From the beginning
of school until October 22. more
than 300 students changed
rooms; almost half did so with-
out notifying the OfTice of the
Dean of Students. Consequent-
ly, it has been difTieuU to lo-
cate certain students through
the switchboard.

estimated that this would pro-
vide an additional 100 places.

towers near Kutz and Golding.

In addition to the money for
the six acre area, the plan will
cost the University an addi-
tional $100,000 to build a new
water tower to replace the old
ones. The new water tower will
meet the expanding needs of
the University and the Cedar-
wood area. The plan would also
permit the City to tie into the
Brandeis sewage section from
Cedarwood. thus saving $40,000
it would need to build a new
sewage system. The reservoir
and the water towers were ac-
quired last month.

The new site between the
gymnasium and the Fuller In-
firmary will enable the Univer-
sity to continue with plans for
a new sports center and swim-
ming pool. However, the exact
site of the center has not yet
been determined. City owned
water pipes are under much of
the land making it unusable
for construction. The land can
be used for parking, however.

Leaky Pipes Force
Cholmondeleys Move

Cholmondeley's, the campus coffee .shop, has moved
temporarily into the CUistle Snack bar at night because of
a ''plumbing failure" in its old site.

Robert Marcus, manager of Cholmondeley's, .said that
workers have torn up the floor trying to repair the .several
leaks. However, he stated that Cholmondeley's will return

home "hopefully before next*^

week-end " He added. "We

a basic medical sciences build-
ing in this area.

The negotiations for the land
took almost two years because
the City had to decide that it
did not want to build a school
on the site. However. Brandeis
convinced the City Council
that the tract is too far from
any potential neighborhood it
might serve.

The final vote in the Council
was 10-4 in favor. One of the
Council members who voted
against the sale said tiiat the
land could have a rail siding
and could be used for industry.
Later a Brandeis ofTicial said
that it would be poor zoning to
put a factory there The final
price of $5().000 represents
twice the assessed valuation of
ihe property.

In negotiating the sale of the
property, Lawrence Kane '57,
Special Assistant to the Presi-
dent, said that the University
science complex will aid in
bringing industry to Waltham.

In working for the acquisi-
tion of this land and in prepara-
tion for future acquisitions,
Kane has molded the Univer-
sity's 400 employees who live
in Waltham into a political
force capable of putting pres-
sure on the City Council.

According to Kane one of the
future projects for construction
is graduate housing. This might
necessitate the buildmg of high
rise apartments, s o m e t h i n g
never done before in the City.
Since many of the graduate
students have children, such an
apartment would impose art
additional strain on the Wal-
tham school system. However,
he said this building is far m
the future.

little nook."

In order to permit Cholmon-
deley's to continue its enter-
tainment program at its new
location, the managers put a
platform in the middle where
it can be seen from both sides
of the snack bar.

Marcus said that the snack
bar gives the waiters a lot more
space in which to work. "Busi-
ness is better by accident. Peo-
ple come here expecting to find
the snack bar A lot of people
discover Cliolmondeley's who
otherwise would never have
come." He added, "we are ap-
preciative of the dining halls
and snack bar efforts"

snack bar is not as good as th"

has better acoustics, but lacks

other girl agreed but suggested

^SelfCovemance' in Action

A recent campus incident serves to refocus our atten-
tion on the concept and term '\self-governance."

A Dormitory (Council last week imposed a penalty on
one of the dorm residents lor violating one of the restric-
tions decree<l in the (iazetle several weeks ago and de-
clared to be the interpretation of the rules announced by
the Dean of Students last summer. Dean Leonard Zion
(Associate Dean of Student Affairs) then made clear to
the Dorm Council, the resident counselors, etc. that the
authority to imjKJse penalties on students who violate
dormitory rules lies not with Dorm Councils, but with the
Student Board of Review.

We noticed several weeks ago that the Brandeis con-
ception of "self-governance" is not equivalent to the con-
ventional definition of self-government. The narrowness
and negativeness of the ''guidelines" handed down by
various administrators emasculates **self-governance*' of
the very essence of self-government: the authority to en-
act legislation governing the social (in the gei.eral sense
of the word) activities of the members of the community.
The current situation, then, is one in which the defini-
tion of **self-governance'* becomes so narrow as to disap-
pear in meaning. The situation is this:

1) The members of the residential Brandeis com-
munity have had no part in formulating restrictions af-
fecting only themselves ;

2) Many of these restrictions are objectionable to a
great majority of the members of the community;

3) These same people have been asked to report each
other for violating the restrictions;

4) But the groups given the distasteful task of polic-
ing the restrictions have been denied the authority to
punish offenders; this authority lies with the Administra-
tive Committee, which has delegated it to SBR.

5) The entire system has been declared to be "self-
governance" in action.

The "self-governance" mask is transparent; through
n we see not a democratic society but rule through force.

The Graduate Institution

By SANDRA SWANSON

(EDITOR'S NOTE: Sandra Swanson is a graduate student at Brandeis.)

It might be thought that graduate education is an improvement over undergrad-
uate education. Nothing could be more likely and less true. Everywhere graduate stu-
dents in both the sciences and humanities are the least free members of the academic
society. How has this strange situation come about?

Institutionally, graduate students are the most vulnerable. Undergraduates are
dependent upon professors one at a time; the recorded power of the teacher over the
student is restricted to a single* . _

Letters to the Editor

The Open Society

(EDITOR'S NOTE: The jollowing editorial was printed
incorrectly in this space two weeks ago.)

One of Dr. Sachar's subjects in his recent "dialogue"
with the assembled "student leaders" was the relationship
between the city of Waltham and Brandeis University He
pointed out that a certain article in The Justice was in
considerable conflict with what he termed "the fundamen-
talist Christian" beliefs of many of the residents. Dr
Sachar asserted, i)erhaps accurately, that the anti-Bran-
deis feelings engendered by this sort of thing are detri-
.mental to Brandeis development and progress.

This, coupled with the President's assertion that cen-
sorship of student publications is the farthest thing from
his mind, leads us to believe that Dr. Sachar would like to
see these publications exercise some form of self-censor-
ship that would make living with Waltham, and thus ex-
pansion and development of the University, somewhat
easier.

This kind of thinking is inconsistent with the goals
of a great liberal-arts university. A university does not
exist to expand or to acquire land; neither does it exist in
order to provide the town in which it is located with em-
ployment opportunities and newspaper copy. A great liber-
al arts university exists precisely to call into question, and
to suggest alternatives for, the prevalent beliefs of con-
temporary society, whether these beliefs concern biologi-
cal, chemical, moral or philosophical matters.

The Justice intends to continue its policy of providing
a place where ideas, no matter how unconventional, may
be suggested and discussed. We apologize in advance for
the trouble we may cause the President in acquiring more
land at future Waltham City Council meetings.

Indignant Idealist

This is only my first year as
a graduate student here at
Brandeis, so many of you will
have to pardon my naivete.
Last week I had occasion to
utilize the facilities of the Uni-
versity Bookstore. As in-
structed by the large sign
placed outside by the manage-
ment, I left my books on the
shelf against the wall. When
I came out, one of my books
had been stolen. I advised the
manager of my plight and was
calmly told "I wouldn't call it
stealing unless you don't trust
our Brandeis students to return
the book." I assured him that
it was a very provocative defi-
nition, but where I come from
(the wilds of Wayne State U.
in Detroit) it was called steal-
ing.

"Surely you can't hold us
responsible," he exclaimed.
But, indeed, he was, I pointed
out, as the bookstore had in-
structed me to leave my books
outside and yet failed to pro-
vide any security to guard
against theft. He then told me
that it was cheaper for the
bookstore to operate in this
manner and, by a concerted
stretch of imagination, I was
able to comprehend his reason-
ing. It appears that books are
much easier to pilfer when they
can be concealed between
other books. When I asked him
why the bookstore didn't ar-
range some space inside the
door for students to leave their
books, he replied that he had
the administration to contend
with and that there was simply
not enough space or money to
expand.

I was advised that the only
recourse I had (the height of
humility) was to place a sign
outside the store pleading with
the thief for the return of my
book. This I did, not because
the book itself was that expen-
sive, but because it was irre-
placeable. I had read the en-
tire book and it contained all
of the undcrlinings and mar-
ginal notes which I will find
necessary later in the semester.
Beside this and the fact that
four of the seven books that I

attempted to locate in the li-
brary in preparation for a term
paper were presumed stolen by
the librarians after many
checks, I have no further com-
plaints. (1 might add that, in a
rare burst of satiric genius, one
quite witty student undersigned
J. E. Hoover on my note outside
of the bookstore.)

I was assured by all that
cheating was quite common-
place here at Brandeis. but in-
curable idealist that I am, I
could not seem to reconcile this
with the profound sense of ethi-
cal justice and righteous indig-
nation I saw expressed by
Brandeis students in regards to
the Administration's new
"Rule," among many other con-
ceived deprivations and restric-
tions.

I can see quite easily, in this
age of conceptual manipulation
and linguistic hocus-pocus, how
many others here besides the
bookstore manager have suc-
ceeded quite easily in separat-
ing their private and public
definitions of reality, in the
language of C. Wright Mills I
can see where the theft of just
my book is my "trouble," but
it appears to me that the per-
vasive nature of thievery and
the pathetic distortion of fun-
damental ethics to conform
with this appalling reality are
Brandeis' "issue."

It is also rather clear that for
every student who steals a book
there are two or three or more
others who know that he has
stolen and do nothing about it
And as Rolf Hochhuth has so
poignantly and dramatically
demonstrated in "The Deputy"
to witness an evil and not de-
clare yourself opposed makes
one a secret albeit unwilling
accomplice.

Graduate Grumbles

(EDITOR'S NOTE: Lewis

year A copy of this letter

SacharT ""' '' ''''' ^'^"^

I w o u 1 d have responded
earlier to your editorial "Art
for Art's Sake" in the October

20th issue but I have just re-
ceived it. Unfortunately your
editorial serves as an excellent
example of what the major
faults of the Justice are — at
times — statement without
validating the bases of your
opinions.

The University can be validly
criticized on many issues, but
this is not one of them. The
University, throughout its his-
tory, has consistently attempted
to bring honorary degree re-
cipients as well as creative arts
winners to campus to speak If
you would take the time to
check Gen. Ed S programs of
past years you will notice that
these efforts have been some-
what successful. As a past
chairman of Gen. Ed. S 1 have
worked with Dr. Sachar on the
programs, and therefore, know
that he has earnestly tried to
make available to students the
thoughts and opinions of those
who have been honored by the
university by trying to arrange
for them to come to campus.
Although the means of "shar-
ing"with these outstanding men
and women may be improved,
the implication that the Uni-
versity administration has neg-
lected the students and has had
its own selfish aims in mind
(i.e. money and dinners) is un-
fair and untrue. An apology, on
your part, to the administration
would be an honorable and
honest act. . . .

Lewis Serbin '64

EDITOR'S REPLY: The
point of our editorial "Art jar
Art's Sake' is this: There has
been no effort made to incorpo-
rate the Creative Arts Awards
presentations into the Vnivcr-
sity's activities in a way that
will enhance the education of
the students studying the arts
represented by the winners.
Somet hing of this sort could
be done if the artists were to
live on campus for several days.
The Gen. Ed. S. lectures, which
in the past have generally
taken the form of 40-minute
autobiographical sketches, do
not serve this function. More-
over few Award winners lec-
ture in the Gen. Ed. S or any
other lecture series.

South American Critique

The Peruvian Dilemma

Roberto Morquez Binet

Peru's present situation is much the same as that of any other Latin American
country, except Cuba, where there is no longer an oligarchical class or "extractive"
foreign interests. It is the situation of the underdeveloped country which, consistantly
exploited, remains underdeveloped. The countries of South America are abundant with
virtually all the prime natural resources, all the things necessary for man to live, and
Peru is not the poorest in such resources among these nations. It is among the world's
leading producers of cotton„j,

In Defiance of the Travel Ban

The Soldier — Scholars

By DONALD S. YOST

Last summer my wife and I were among the 85
members of the group which traveled to Cuba in defiance
of the State Department ban on travel. While we were in
Cuba as guests of the Cuban Federation of University
Students, we toured the entire island and, although we had
a schedule of places to visit such as schools and factories
they were voluntary, and we,,|_ '

can compete with Chilean cop-
per and Venezuelan oil, has a
large fishing industry and ex-
ports sugar and cane extracts.
Yet, like all of Latin America,
except Cuba, the great majority
of the Peruvian people live in
hunger and disease, continue
to be exploited and remain
among the most impoverished
people of the world. 1 do not
pretend to offer here a logical
©r systematic presentation of
the entire labyrinth of Peru's
social, economic and political
complexities. I will merely
give, as clearly and succinctly
as I am able, a general view of
the situation in Peru, the dif-
ferences between the regions,
and more particularly, provide
some insight into the country's
fundamental problem with the
political results it has had, and
continues to have.

the number of strings (five ra
ther than four), tuning (in
fourths rather than fifths), and
e.specially in tone. The cello has
a much fuller, richer sound,
lacking the plaintive quality of
the gamba. The difference in
tones is somewhat comparable
to that between the harpsichord
and piano. Bach was familiar
with both the gamba and cello,
and wrote music for each, con-
sidering not only the technical
differences between the two in-
struments (i.e. fingerings) but
also the timbric differences.

Gamba on Cello

Unfortunately, Miss Foley
performed the gamba sonata on
a cello, and this accounted for
many of the faults of the per-
formance. The sonata is in
three-part texture, the upper
voice of the harpsichord hav-
ing a role equal to the cello,
and there is a great deal of
imitation between the two
parts. But the cello more be-
cause of its quality than its
volume seems to dominate. Per-
haps a different choice of reg-
istration by Mr. Spiegelman
could have produced a more
equal balance.

The performance also suf-
fered from a lack of consistency
in interpretation. Both Miss
Foley and Mr. Spiegelman,
taken separately, played very
well. They each did some ex-
tremely beautiful and musical
things. But they often played
similar passages very different-
ly and more than once, a liber-
ty taken in the phrasing of one
part chopped up the phrasing in
tlie other.

The program continued with
two contemporary works. Vari-
ations for Two Flutes (1960) by
Yehuda Yannay, a Brandeis
graduate student, and Pitch-De-
rived Rhythm (1961) by James
Randall.

The Yannay piece, a series of
short variations for flute and
alto flute was the better of the
two. It was very pleasant to
listen to, particularly on ac-
count of the soft, velvety low
register of the alto flute. The
choice of notes was consistently
good. Both flutists, Alice Kogan
and Nancy Jerome, played very
well.

unpolished transference of a
nialhi'tnaUcal concept to tnusic.
(The title iinpUes some prede-
termined organization of
rhythm as well as pilch.) Tlie
inteivals repeatedly formed
triads and seventh chords,
weakening the texture of the
music, and the rhythm seemed
to tUninder around. The piece
was conceived to be electron-
ically executed but in this ver-
sion was tran.scribed to various
instrutnental combinations.

Tiiere were two sections (de-
noted demonstratiotis ) for pi-
ano, two ft)r two celli (one of
which was n:)t played), one for
flute and clarinet, and one for
flute. clarin«»t, cello, and piano.
Only the first two demonstra-
tions were reasonal)ly success-
ful, primarily because of out-
standint^ performances l)y Mar-
tin Boykun on piano, and then
by Miss Foley and Dorothy Ros-
enliial on cello.

'J'he second half of the pro-
gram betjan with three sonatas
by Domenico Scarlatti, per-
formed by Joel Spieiielmjn.
The .sonat IS cast in the binary
structure of the late l)aroque
were typical Scarlatti with
clusti'rs of tones, quick shifts
between tfie major and minor
modes, rapid runs and numer-
ous idiomatic devices for the
liarpsichord Mr. Spiegelman
performed them with verve
and temperament, varying the
tempo to gain expressivity. The
third son.ita in D major was
particularly outstandini<.

Gabrieli Canzonus

There followed three can-
zonas by Giovanni Gabrieli,
scored in this performance for
trumpet, oboe, trombone and
bassoon. These canzonas consist-
ed of successive, discontinuous
sections of imitative counter-
point, all in the same tonality
(mode). It was from this form
that the long, arduous develop-
ment of the sonata-form began.
Tlu' perfi rmance was a little
dull despite the bright sound,
becau.se all the parts were
played at the identical dynamic
levels throughout and there
were no contrasts.

The program clo.sed with an
excellent performance of
"Octandre" by Edgar Varese.
Varese is an exponent o£
niusique concrete, considering
mu.>.ie as ati end in itself rather
than as a vehicle for conveying
human emotions and ideas. In
the construction of the piece,
elements of sounds are manipu-
lated as concrete oljjects.
Varese is greatly concerned
with the timbre of each instru-
ment and is expert in adding
them together to form large
densities of sound and in con-
tiasting such clusters with
other clusters and individual
timbres.

"Octandre." written in 1»24,

It IS in three movements and
is scored for flute, oboe, clari-

decision in about one month,
depending on whether library
use declines, as is usual after
midterms when many students
study less.

Another possible step is to
fcjrbid students fron^other col-
leges who live near Brandeis to
use the library. This however,
would jcK)t)i>rdize Brandeis'
agreements with all the major
schools in the area, except Har-
vard, which allow students to
use each other's library facili-
ties. The school also allows
Walt ham residents to use the
library as a community service.

Mr. Schreiber has hesitated
to ask for the conversion
of the Goldfarb sub-basement to
a study area unless it proves
absolutely necessary because of
the cost involved, estimated at
approximately $500,000. This
money is urgently needed for
acquisition of books, journals
and other material.

trombone, and bass. Each
movement consists of contrast-
ing short sections, opening with
solos and progressing to the
full ensemble. The oboe solo,
opening the first movement, is
especially striking. The instru-
ments, though used consciously
to produce overall sonorities,
preserve their individual
identity throughout.

distinction. Whatever other
standards we may apply to
drama or poetry, sometliing ex-
tra must occur — an action
must accompany the pathos —
for the work to be considered
dramatic.

In this respect, The Sandbax
and The Tiger are more suc-
cessful plays than The Collec-
tion. Within their plots, cer-
tain events take place, certain
changes occur. If the world
which they represent is one of
inaction, this does not invali-
date them as drama; the meta-
phor employed is one of ac-
tion. The Collection, although
it has fine artistic points and
interplays, is not dramatic; a
soliloquy (alone) does not com-
prise a drc.tmatic action, though
it may deal with a dynamic
problem.

effigy. The reason for this was
glibly stated by the president
of the oll'ending hall where the

effigy was hid. He said that
there was a direct relation be-
tween the effectiveness of the
football team and the state of
student morals. He claimed that
if the team won more, there

would be fewer sit-ins, and less
sexual intercourse among stu-
dents.

The development

of management

is essential

to our goal of

great growth"

At the 1964 stockholders* meeting, Arjay Miller,
President off Ford Motor Company, emphasized the
Company's far-sighted recruitment program and its accent
on developing management talent:

"One aspect of our planning is crucial to the success of
everything else we do. It engages the best thoughts and efforts of
our whole management team, from top to bottom, throughout the
world. I am speaking of the development of management. The
immediate future of our Company depends heavily upon the abilities
of the people who are now key members of our management team.

"In the longer run, our future depends on what we are doing at

the present time to attract and develop the people who will

be making the major decisions 10 to 20 years from now. We are

developing management competence in depth in order to attack the

problems that will confront a company of great growth— and

great growth (both in profits and sales) is exactly the goal

we have established for Ford Motor Company.

"We are continuing to emphasize recruiting. Last spring, 180 of our
management people devoted part of their time to recruiting
outstanding graduates from colleges and universities throughout
the U.S. Last year, these efforts resulted in our hiring over
1,000 graduates, 220 more than the year before.

"We are seeking and we are finding young men— and young woni..i,
too— with brains and backbone— people who have the ability and
the desire to make room for themselves at the top. We give our
trainees challenging assignments with as much responsibility as
they can carry. We promote them as fast as they are ready. Those
who are interested in easy security soon drop out. Those who
have what we want stay with us, and move up quickly to increased
responsibility and the pay that goes with It. Thanks to the quality
of the people we are recruiting and developing, I am firmly
convinced that our outlook is most promising."

worked for someone in the

being in Miramar) of Havana
is now Ciudad Libertad (City
()f Liberty) where youth from
iill over the island live and
.vludy at government expense.
\Vhen my wife and I first ar-
rived in Cuba we were skepti-
cal that we would really have
freedom to see what we wanted,
i,mi we were also afraid that
places we were to visit would
hv warned of our arrival so
that things could be set-up be-
fore we got there. So, we vis-
ited Ciudad Libertad three days
before the rest of the group on
our own. No one expected us,
but we had personal tours of
classrooms and dormitories and
talked with administrators,
teachers and students. We were
)mpress€'d by the practical na-
ture of curriculum and the
quality of the facilities. Stu-
dents in Junior High School
were studying internal com-
bustion engines, algebra, and
biology.

Emphasis on Education

We also visited a city-school
in the Sierra Maestra Moun-
tains, Minas del Frio, where
5.000 students between the
ages of twelve and twenty are
learning to become teachers.
The school has the most primi-
tive conditions imaginalole. It
rains nearly every day and as
a result there is ankle-deep
mud constantly. The diet can
only be described as Spartan
— lots of beans and rice. The
classrooms are simple open-air
wooden shelters built by the
.students themselves. But liv-
ing in these conditions are stu-
dents who want to go out into
equally primitive conditions
and teach other people in out-
lying regions of the island. If
Ihey make it through Minas
del Frio (and some drop out),
they will be ready for any-
thing. The motivating factor
for these young people is the
statement of Jose Marti, the
national hero of Cuba, "Those
who do not have knowledge —
learn! Those who have knowl-
edge — teach!" The only re-
ward these dedicated young
people want is the satisfaction
of seeing others learn.

The dedication to learning
has also produced a great dif-
ference in medical conditions
in Cuba. There are now more
doctors in Cuba than in any
other Latin-American country.
Only the US and Canada have
more doctors in proportion to
the population. All government
medical facilities are free to
patients. The first graduating
class from the Havana medi-
cal school after the Revolution
voted to spend their first year
in the mountains caring for
sick. Since then, each class has
volunteered to do the same.
Prior to the Revolution, peo-
ple often had to travel on foot
for two to four days to see
a doctor only to find they
couldn't afford to pay him.

The dedication to education
is found everywhere. Factory
workers may spend one hour

Shocking

each day, with full pay, learn-
ing in schools in the factory it-
self. It is a common sight to
see a militia man sitting at
guard duty, his rifle propped-
up against the building, read-
ing his math book.

Emphasis on Culture

Along with the emphasis on
education there is an emphasis
on culture in Cuba. Cultural
events are within price-range
of all and are widely attended.
Our group visited the Cuban
National Ballet where we saw
a performance of "Exorcismo"
based upon Arthur Miller's
The Crucible, with music by
Berlioz. The admission price
for all seats was 50c. Alicia
A 1 o n z o, formerly the prima
ballerina of the world, directs
the company.

The Cuban Ballet Company
and Symphony Orchestra fre-
quently tour the provinces,
bringing culture to the campe-
sinos who otherwise would
have had no such opportunity.
The response has been very
good. Two years ago, for ex-
ample, the works of Stravinsky
enjoyed great popularity with
the people.

Art in Cuba is an area where
the combination of Commu-
nism and the Latin-American
spirit is .«;hown. Paintings are
very colorful and the emphasis
is upon abstraction. There are
many natural surrealists in
Cuba and their works are well
received. The paintings in Cuba
do not belong to the "socialist
realism" school and artists
have much greater latitude
than in other socialist coun-
trit^s.

All museums are free in
Revolutionary Cuba, as are all
zoos and aquaria. For exam-
ple, in Havana is the Napole-
onic Museum which has the
greatest collection of books
about Napoleon and Napole-
onic F r .1 n I e outside France
herself. On display are pieces
of Napoleon's casket, his cloth-
ing, teeth, and strands of his
hair.

Ernest Hemingway's home
in San Francisco de Paula, out-
side Havana, is another na-
tional museum and it has bten
kept exactly as Papa left it.
Hemingway's house was do-
nated to t h e Revolutionary
Government by the author's
wife after his death.

Books by Hemingway and
otlier North American authors
are readily available in Cui)a.
In addition to works by Marx,
Lenin, Mao and Marti, books
bv Melville. Steinbeck. Twain.
J D. Salenger, Stendhal, Dos-
toyevsky. Tolstoy and many
other aiJthors are to be found
everywhere. Children's books
are well done and illu.strations
are excellent. One of the ele-
mentary school textbooks we
examined was Aesop's Fables
(Printed on the old Time Mag-
azine press) which was a sim-
ple retelling of the stories for
young people. No effort to
•'propogandize" was apparent.

What's the book?

Does it always have to
sound dirty?

Except when the book it-
self is dirty. I mean look at
covers on the Henry Miller
books or Fanny Hill — but
of course Wm. O. Douglas
is still an amateur. And
then there was tne one pub-
lished last week about the
guy who raped a dozen
women. What did the blurb-
ers do? "A writer of con-
siderable power and im-
pressive originality." (N.Y.
Times, Oct. 25, 1964— Book
Review section page 18.)

How could we go about
finding the best in blurb
literature? What are the
classics?

Well, a lot of the new tal-
ent coming along thinks
that I'm a sentimental tra-
ditionalist, but I still think
that the first were the bt^st.

For example?

You still can't beat the one
they came up with for Hans
Andersen's first best-seller
— "makes Grimm read like
a bunch of children's fairy
tales."

Have you seen any trends
in blurbing developing re-
cently?

For one thing, all the talent
is drifting out of books and
into movies and theater,
and in the classier papers
they've even taken to using
sentences; but even so
there's some tremendous
work being done. Just look-
ing through the Times, I
saw one that'll be a modern
classic. It was for a new
movie. It went, "a woman
could feel him across the
room." How's that for vir-
ility? It's got about quad-
ruple entendre.

Sara Ullman, Brandeis social-
ist leader, called in about the
future of capitalism in the
United States. One of the stu-
dents replied that because the
labor unions here have been so
successful, most working men
see no reason to upset the capi-
talist system. A student later
added that because of social
security and other welfare mea-
sures, even those Americans
who are poor see no r€^ason to
overthrow the existing struc-
ture. Even admittedly radical
movements, such as the Noel

Biochems Top Avengers Booters LosG Last Five;

Take Flag Football Title Finish With 5-7-2 Slate

By RIC USLANER

Rumor has it that it just might be Biochems ajjainst
the world. The ^Ydd student flag football team, fresh from
winning the intramural championship, is now said to be

preparing to enter the City^i^

League in Waltham.

And one can see why — of
the top eight scorers in the in-
tramural league, the BioChems
had four. They were undefeated
in both regular season and
play-off games, racking up an
8-0 record. They finished a full
2 Va games ahead of the runner-
up Avengers, wlio were 5-2-1.

The Biochems took the
championship when they down-
ed the Avengers 34-8 at Gordon
Field Wednesday afternoon.
Fran Stolzenbach, Biochem
quarterbac'., stole the show
with three touchdowns, four
extra points, and two touch-
down passes. Joe Perkins
scored the only touchdown for
the Avengers.

The Biochems jumped out to
an early lead in the first quar-
ter when Stolzenbach plunged
over the goal line from the 3
yard line. He completed a 35
yard touchdown pass to Dave
Bowman in the same period,
and ran around end himself for
a 13 yard touchdown. The
Biochems led at half-time 22-0.

Early in the second half
Stolzenbach threw a 20 yard
pass to Barry Goldlust which
gave the Biochems another
score. The Avengers came back
late in the third quarter when
Bob Nelson threw a touchdown
pass almost the length of the
field to Joe Perkins, but Stol-
zenbach came right back with
a score from the four yard line.

Earlier in the week the
Avengers had defeated the
Grand Prix 14-0 and the
Biochems had toppled the
STUDents 22-6 in semi-final
matches.

The Standingrs

The standings of the teams
at the close of the season read:

Biochems 8-0

Avengers • 5-2-1

Grand Prix 4-2-1

STUDents 4-2-1

Deroy 4-2

Shapiro A 3-3

Ridge-woods 3-3

Peter and the Wolves 2-3-1
Jeffs 2-4

Zekes 1-5

Hippies 1-4-1

Shapiro B 2 0-4-2

Shapiro B 1 0-6

The leading scorers in league
play this year were Joe Perkins
(Avengers) with 68 points,
Dave Barker (Biochems) with
44 points, Bryan Bowman (Bio-
chems) with 40, Al Dingle and
Fran Stolzenback (both Bio-
chems) with 30 apiece, Stubsy
Forster (Shapiro A) with 26,
and Joe De Muro (Shapiro A)
and Mel Orlans (Ridge-woods)
with 24 apiece.

Athletic Director Irv Olin re-
viewed the season, saying,
"We've had more kids partici-
pate than ever before. The In-
tramural Council has been very
helpful." The Intramural Coun-
cil is a student run organization
which works with the Physical
Education department in ar-
ranging for intramural activi-
ties.

Coach John Hughes, who has
been filling in for Gene Booth
as co-ordinator of the teams
during the latter's illness, .said
that "it was a very successful
intramural season. Every team
had enthusiastic supporters at
each game. Although Biochem-
istry dominated play through-
out the season, it was to be ex-
pected because of their relative
ages." He added, "Mr. Booth
devoted time for the improve-
ment of officials which made
for the greater number of
teams this year."

Fencers Open Against Harvard

Let Foils Be Brought

By JACK HIERIG

**Let the foils he hrought. I will win for Brandeis If I can/'
Shakespeare, Hamlet, (Adapted)

It ha.s been .said not without .some truth that Brandeis
athletic teams are about as good as the Chicago Trilmne\s
coverage of the 1948 presidential election. One consistent
exception to this sorry state, however, is the fencing
team. Coach Marty Martinian***

By PETE WEINER

The Brandeis soccer team was a sure bet to have a winning season as it stood
5-2-2 with five games remaining. The Judges had played good soccer with wins over
tough Stonehill, Barrington, AlC, Hartford and Boston University and tied Mass. Mari-
time and Babson>

The turning point came with4»-
the Norwich game. The Cadets
had a fine 6-1 record with a
strong defense. The Judges
played their best game of the
year — finally showing the
teamwork and skill which was
latent both before, and unfortu-
nately, after the Norwich en-
counter, Brandeis held the Ca-
dets scoreless for 84 minutes as
the visitors tallied within the
first two and last two minutes
of play.

The Judges, with a Utile luck,
could have been on the winning
end. C a d m a n Mills. Chris
McLaughlin, Dave Fleischaker
and Eric Epstein kept the Blue
and White in the game as the
Judges played good, hard soc-
cer for a full 88 minutes.

The MIT game was played at
TtH!h on a rainy Monday after-
noon. The Judges were shut
out 4-0 by the strong Engineer
team.

Hard Luck Road

The Judges downfall was
quick and hard. Their morale
was low. Midterms were com-
ing up, and the effects of a
long season were beginning to
show.

The Lowell Tech game was
the epitome of the season's
futility. Lowell had an unim-
pressive 1-6-1 reord. The Bran-
deis squad took the lead quick-
ly as Cadman Mills scored on
a pervalty kick and Pete Barnett
tallied (with an assist to Co-
captain Alan Weingrad).

But the team fell apart, on
defense and offense, and Lowell
went on to score six goals and
hand the Judges a humiliating
6-2 defeat. This was, by far,
the low point of the year.

The Judges demonstrated the
lack of aggressiveness which
marked the last half of the
season. The play in front of
the goalmouth was atrocious as
the forward line did not shoot
enough. The defense was lax

goalie Eric Epstein made 13
saves for the Judges.

Dave Fleischaker played a
savagely aggressive game as
he continuously kept on the
ball. The Oklahoman, a junior,
was the Judges most depend-
able player throughout the sea-
son and proved his worth
against Bates.

The season's finale was a
quiet affair as the Judges lost
to an impotent University of
Rhode Island squad, 5-0, last
Thursday. The Brandeis squad
gave the game to the weak
visitors (2-8-1) as Dick Czfer-
winski, URI's center-forward,
scored four goals. The Judges
bowed out rather ignomini-
ously as they could not muster
any offense.

An Analysis

The Judges' 5-7-2 record is
an improvement over last

as the fullbacks and halfbacks! year's dismal 3-10 slate. The

has led our '^Cyranoes" to vic-
torious sea.sons in eight of the
past nine years. This year
Coach Martinian is predicting
just an even sea.son. This is due
to the fact that just as the sci-
ence department is rebuilding
its quad, the fencing team is
rebuilding its squad. In fact,
most of tlie teams members are
freshmen and sophomores. The
feeling is that by 1966 we will
have developed a team as new
and improved as most laundry
detergents on the market to-
day.

All Honorable Men . . .

This year the team's hopes
rest with Richard (Tinny)
Steinberg at foil, John (First-
Blood) Kalish in epee. and Dan
(Slicer) Shames and Richard
(Toothed-Tiger) Cohen at
Sabre. In addition to these four
swordsmen of Brandeis, the

haps you might have genuine
intellectual curiosity? Or per-
haps you might even be inter-
ested in learning the funda-
mentals of the game because
you want to support a Brandeis
varsity team? If so, you are in
luck, for here is a list of funda-
mentals of fencing. A match
consists of nine games, three in
each of three categories, foil,
sabre, and epee. It takes five
points to win a game. In foil,
the lightest of the three difTer-
ent swords, the fencer must hit
his opponent anywhere from
the shoulders to the waist ex-
cept for the arms in order to
gain a point. In sabre, which is
the cutting weapon, a hit from
the waist up, on the head, or on
the arms, brings a point. Lastly,
those who use epee, the longest
blade, may land a blow any-
where including the wrist and
foot.

let their men get by. And the
important element of t eam-
work was definitely missing.

Bates Masters Judges

On TV, the Judges mustered
enough of an attack to look
presentable as Bates downed
the squad, 4-0. last Wednesday.
Bates is one of the better teams
in New England and is a con-
tender for the Atlantic Coast
championship. The Bobcats
sport an 8-1-2 record.

Francis Kirembu Ed Wells
and Bruce Peterson scored in
the second period to give Bates
a 3-0 lead. Captain Bob Lanz
added the fourth tally in the
fourth period to wrap it up.

soccer squad should have had a
winning season. A closer analy-
sis will provide an insight into
the Judges sudden tailspin.

The Stonehill victory was
marked by team play and ag-
gressiveness. Asim Erdilek was
the key as he scored the tying
goal. Unfortunately Asim was
injured in the BU game and
was out for the rest of the sea-
son.

The Barrington triumph was
a team effort as Dan Obasun
scored twice. Obasun, a senior,
was the important cog in the
team's offen.se this season.
Chris McLaughlin tallied once.
The Woodbridgc. Conn, .sopho-
more, the year's most im-

proved player, was the Judges
most consistent performer this
season.

The last two successes,
against AIC and Hartford, were
highlighted by the play of Cad-
man Mills. Cadman, the team's
leading scorer tallied once
against AIC and twice against
Hartford.

During the first half of the
season the team played aggres-
sive soccer emphasizing team
play. The forwards took the
shots when they had them and
did not slough responsibility.

But as the season progressed,
injuries affected the team as
key players were lost. Erdilek,
Ndungo, Co-captain Dimitri
Mavros, Goalie Dave Epstein,
Fleischaker. Bob Zweben were
all out at one time or another.

And teamwork disappear ^d.
At times it was each man for
himself. The early aggressive-
ness was lost. The blame fell
on the referees, the coach, the
pressure — not on the team.
But the key to victory is the
success of the squad as a work-
ing unit. And the Judges lacked
this cohesion as the season pro-
gressed.

Next season is ten months
away but Coach Hughes is al-
ready looking forward to a
successful year. He is losing
only three regulars — Co-cap-
tains Mavros and Weingrad and
Dan Obasun. Fleischaker. Erdi-
lek, Mills, Wilmon, Wallen-
Bryan will be back and goalie
Eric Epstein will be minding
the nets. The future seems
bright — perhaps it will remain
that way.

Cheerleaders

The 1964-65 version of the
Brandeis cheerleading squad
will make their grand debut
Thursday night, Dec. 3, as
the Judges tackle Bates at
home. The hoop opener will
be preceeded by a freshman
game at 6:15.

Melanie Rovner *65 is the

captain of the cheerleaders.

Holdovers from last year are

Anne Cohen '65, Marcia

Petersen '65, Phyllis Kauf

man '67 and Jane Sills '67.

New members are Judy Cor-

win, Margo Jefferson, Kay

Matthews, Sue Shapiro, Pam

Smythe and Trudi Wishnow,

all freshmen.

The 11-girl squad will
make every attempt to fol-
low the Judges at home and
on the road. The girls, fa-
mous for their blue-polka-
dot panties, were selected by
a six-man panel including
Coach Hughes, Miss Nichols,
Melanie, Miles Reich, Richie
Hymoff and Santo Cimino.

Charles Smith, who assumed
the position as coach in the
middle of last season, feels that
the team's prospects are en-

weakness is the lack of heavier
wrestlers; therefore there are
still positions open on the team

Allen Ginsberg, Peter Orlovsky
To Give Poetry Reading Tonight

Allen Ginsberj? and several friends, including fellow poet Peter Orlovsky, will de-
liver a poetry reading in Schwartz Hall tonight at 7:30. Sponsored by Folio, the read-
ing is only the second which Mr. Ginsberg has given on a college campus this year. All
faculty and students are invited to attend.

Born in 1926, Mr. Ginsberg worked as dishwasher, spot welder and night porter
after graduating Columbia in 1948. He has also been a book reviewer for Newsweek and
a market research consultant; he later gave poetry readings all over the world, most

recently in India with Mr.i*

Orlovsky, in 1962.

Charity Week Features
Jazz, Project Outreach

Plans for the annual Charity Week, to begin Decem-
ber 3, have neared completion. Activities include Project
Outreach, dorm collections, an auction, a jazz concert by
Thelonius Monk, a charity basketball game. Cabaret Night,
and Workday. Charities selected by the students will bene-
fit from the week's activities.

The World University Serv-'
ice, the Foster Parent Plan, the
National Scholarship Service
and Fund for Negro Students,
and the Eleanor Roosevelt Can-
cer Foundation were selected
by a student poll as charities
to benefit. Also chosen were
the American Civil Liberties
Union, CARE, and the United
Fund Drive for Kentucky Min-
ers. The usual contribution to
the Waltham Boys Club 'will
also be made.

The Charity Week Commit-
tee, headed by Barbara Levin-
son and Mike Turan, has set a
goal of $2700 for the fund-
raising events.

The week will open with col-
lections in the dorms on Thurs-
day evening, December 3. On
the following evening the re-
nowned jazz pianist Thelonius
Monk will give a concert at the
Shapiro Athletic Center under
the auspices of the Student

Among his works are Howl
and Other Poems, (1955),
Empty Mirror (1960), and Kad-
dish and Other Poems (1960).
In 1963, Mr. Ginsberg pub-
lished Reality Sandwiches and
Journal of the Death Vine. He
has been described variously as
"a poet of shock and wit," "a
perennial perverse Bar Mitzvah
boy", and "shaggy".

The following is from an au-
tobiographical poem appearing
in the Spring, 1964 edition of
Kulchur magazine:

Allen Ginsberg says this: I am
a ma.ss of sores and worms
I am false Name the prey
of Yamantaka Devourer of
strange dreams, the prey of

Dorm Council Wins Jurisdiction
Over Parietal Rules Violations

The dormitory councils have won jurisdiction to hear and try students accused of
first violations of the parietal and other dormitory rules in dorms other than their own.
SBR will try all subsequent violations.

Associate Dean of Students Leonard Zion announced the implementation of this
procedure after a meeting held Tuesday evening with representatives of North A and

Danciger Halls.

The North-A d o r m i t o r y'fr
council wanted jurisdiction

over a resident of that dorm
who violated the parietal rules
in another dorm. The adminis-
tration felt that such cases
should go directly to SBR. The
dorm councils already have
jurisdiction of violations that
occur within the dorm

At the meeting on Tuesday
night, Mike Mass, President of
North-A said that the prestige
of the dorm councils and the
future of dorm government
would be jeopardized unless

The Brandeis Friends of SNCC have plans for several
fund-raising and educational events which will take place
in the near future. Robert Moses, director of the Missis-
sippi Summer Project and director of all SNCC projects in
Miss., will speak on November oO at 7 p.m. in Nathan
Seifer Hall. On Thursday, December o, a fast will be held.
As in past years, students will*

their willingness to give up

one meal. The money tiuis
saved will be used to buy food
to be sent to Mississippi.
Events

The Brandeis Friends of
SNCC held two fund-raising
evenis on campus this week.
The first was the showing of a
documentary film alx)ut the
situation in Mississippi, fol-
lowed by a talk by SNCC field
secretary Claude Weaver. The
second was the staging of Sam-
uel Becket's Waiting for Godot,
which was produced in con-
junction with the Three Chap-
els. The Administration of the
University generously paid the
Boston Theatre Group's fee and
the $400 collected at the \yQV-
formance was sent to the Coun-
cil of Federated Organizations
(COFO) in Miss.

The money collected will be
used to buy office supplies,
books and vehicles, and to sup-
port community centers, li-
braries and Freedom Scliools
in the South.

the councils were allowed to
judge all rule violations. Others
argued that "self-governance"
would be meaningless unless
this privilege is granted.

The case involved a resident
of North-A who was appre-
hended by a residence counsel-
lor while leaving a Ridgewood
room with a girl at three in the
morning. The North-A coun-

Tiie students at Brandeis
University will participate in
the tliird annual nationwide
Fast for Freedom on Thursday,
December 3 in order to rai.se
money for the deprived per-
sons m Mississippi. The Fast
will consist of abstaining from
one meal and giving the money
saved to the Fast for Freedom
committee.

This is a joint operation con-
ducted by the Northern Stu-
dent Movement, the National
Student Movement Association,
and the Student Non-Violent
Coordinating Committee. This
Fast has been endorsed by Pres-
ident Johnson, Reverend Mar-
tin Luther King. Jr., and Mr.
Ralph Bunche. Other national
civil-rights organizations arc
also lending their support.

The money will be used to
buy government surplus food.
The Teamster's Union will ship
the food free of charge, as they
did last year.

Sign-up sheets have been
placed in all the dorms and
dining halls at Brandeis. 150
campuses across the country
are also participating in the

the youngsters, in a program
originated by Dean Zion.

Two students assigned to
each child will show them
around campus, including
WBRS and the gym. Later in

Final Clarification

Crrtnin evt'iits hist wtnk didn't ^o exactly the way wo
thoii^'ht tiuy woukl. The Dormitory Couneils have jurisdic-
tion to hear and try stiid<.nts aecust d of first viohilions of dor-
mitory rules. The Student Board of Review will try all subse-
quent violations.

Clearly this doesn't change much. Last week wc stated
that all violations would be handled by SBR. We stand cor-
rected; almost all violations will be handled by SBR. It cer-
tainly doesn't reduce the strength of the point we made here
last week; the dormitories do not have anything approaching
self-gov( rnment; hiding rule-by-forcc behind a "stli-gover-
nance" mask does nothing to alter the reality.

Dear Ilelge:

Your "Facing Reality in Sex" compels me to
say I admire your courage a whole lot more
than I do \our judgnunt.

I genuinely rej^pt'ct vou for speaking your
thougnts out so lorthrightly and I'd like to sort
of "think out loud" with you.

I'm probably three times your age; the father
of a Brandeis student.

The other day I participated in a meeting
where some very thoughiiul people were dis-
cussing a pressing r)robkm . . . promiscuous
sex in one of our Junior Pligh Scliools. I icel
confident thai had you been present you, like
me, would have been distressed and feel as
strongly as do I tliat suhk thing must be done
before tiiese kids really blast their lives.

Reading your piece, I feel the
about the point you express.

Certainly I realize tiiat you are
High School age . . . but ecaially
feel your views are as unsoundly based as the
Junior High School pregnant girl wiio said "I
love him" as the complete justilication lor her
actions.

Helgc, at her age it was probably curiosity
. . . and an outgrowth of parents crowding tiieir
youngsters too much in the race to grow up and
be popular. Dating at 12 or 13; lipstick at 13;
false bras to give them
high heels; long dresses

But at your age . . . and with your education
... 1 wonder if you don't cimfuse lust with love?

And I wonder, also, if you don't minimize the
long range highly detrimental eflect, emotion-
ally, of your confusion?

My wife and I are three times your age . . .
and neither of us have known another sex part-
ner. Our lives are uncluttered by deceit and a
phony sophistication. Sex to us remains a
beautiful and fulfilling act of two people who.se
love has proven itself genuine and stable
through thirty years of ups and downs; good
times and times not so good. But we've been
happy people and remain happy people.

Temptation comes the way of all of us.
Those who succumb rationalize themselves . . .
and, invariably, blame the other guy. Don't
make that mistake. Ilelge. Don't trade a brief
hist gratification for a lifetime of happiness,
it's plain stupid to do so.

Notice, please, that I have avoided the
gious connotalions of your point of view.
jUst dispose (jf that with just a word. And
too, is a most serious blunder.

But it is on the practical consideration
"you should not" rather than the religiously
moral consideration "you must not" that I urge
>ou to reconsider your views.

Sex is one of life's real blessings. Squander
it; cheapen it; satisfy it furtively . . . and you're
a fool selling yourself mighty, mighty short.

On the contrary, Ilelge, save it for the real
man (sic) of your life . . . the man who will
come to mean as much to you as my wife, for
( xample, has come to mean to me. Do that.

in the interest of a full life; a family
a life of all things shared . . . your

Some things, Helge, have indeed stood the
test of time. Some simple things . . . like love;
like honesty; like belief i'l God; like decency;
like a host of other things which could mark a
person believing in them, as I do, as a square,
1 suppose.

But knowing the happiness I do ... I speak
from my own experience . . . not somebody
else's theorizing.

Think it over, Helge. It's a long life. Do
whatever you can to make it a happy one, long-
range.

A Parent of a Fellow Student

Dear Parent of a Fellow Student:

I hope you would have written this letter
even if you had known I was a boy, not a girl.
I know that there is a tendency to regard a
boy's opinions on this subject as being con-
trolled only l)y a lecherous self-interest I
think the dii^tinction made between males and
females in problems concerning sex is a false
and unhealthy one. 1 believe that boys and girls
have an equal need for sexual relations, but
tiiat tlie society has reprei.sed a girl's needs
more or less successfully.

I am also distressed by hearing about preg-
nant Junior High School girls. 1 too think 'Jiis
is a disaster, Init 1 do not agree with your con-
clusions. I think the fact that kills become preg-
nant at the age of thirteen only reinforces my
f)^jinions. Vve must come to gi ps with rclviy.
It does not help any longer to tell teen-agers not
to sleep wiih each other; it does not help to
make prohibitions. What we need is a full edu-
cation in all aspects of the sexual life of man,
both physically and mentally. If the girl you
write about liad known about contracep..\,es,
and had known how to use them, we W(juld
have been spared this tragedy.

If it wer*" possible to change the whole society
and bring it back to the 'Victorian age, I think
your views would have been aeceptable. 1^ ;ay
they are unrealistic and even dangerous, be-
cause they show an unwillingness to face real-
ity. I also think our society's perverse pre-
occupation with sex is wrong, because it reveals
so clearly the double standards which control
the Western World. 'Various aspects of sex are
accepted in the business world, advertisements,
books, teen-age magazines, and movies. You
are allowed to be preoccupied with sex all the
time, but you are not permitted to enjoy the
fulfilment of sex.

It is indeed a sick world we are living in.
Unnatural acts like killing, sadism and insensi-
bility to other human beings' suffering is en-
couraged through comic books, movies, tele-
vision programs and tabloid newspapers. A
beautiful act like the sexual meeting between
two ptKDple is condemned and put under censor-
ship.

I do not think I fail to distinguish between
lust and love. I think ihey both are equally
important parts of human life, that the one
affects and is related to the other. I do nt)t liimk
there is anything wrong with the feeling of
lust; I do not feel that there is anything smful
involved in enjoying sex I think life is won-
derful in spite of all the distresses we meet,
and I think that sex is one of the most beautiful
aspects of life.

Moments of sexual orgasm are perhaps the
most beautiful moments of our entire ex. .-.t nee;
instances when two human beings are so close
that they are able to open "the fifth window to
eternity" for each other. I think it is possible
to reach this aspect of human happiness both
inside and outside marriage. It is when one
puts labels like lustful and sinful on the sexual
meeting between two people that one destroys
the beauty. The world certainly is not such a
hiippy place that we can aliord to destroy mo-
ments of happiness.

Ilelge Ronning:

Tho Justice welcemies any commont.s
on the.se letter.^, and on the topic of
sexual morality in general.

Letters to the Editor

K

"The torch has been passed to a new generation of Ameri-
cans — born in this century, tempered by war, disciplined by a
haid and bitter peace, proud of our ancient heritage — and un-
willing to witness or permit the slow undoing of those human
rights to which this nation has always been committed."

Pragmatic Idealism

Assuming that the adminis-
tration de)es nothing to provoke
another student rebellion, the
struggle for an ideal Brandeis
is bound to enter a new stage.
For while mass violation is cer-
tainly a potent student weapon,
its use, like a nuclear weapon,
is only feasible for defensive
purposes. The Student Union
may use it as a last resort to
protect the status quo but hard-
ly as a means to bring about
an ultimate student victory.

In order to achieve the tra-
ditional goals of student-fac-
ulty control, social auton-
omy, and educational reform, a
different strategy is needed. In-
deed, often v.ithout knowing it,
students have been employing
this alternative strategy. For
day after day in the classroom,
in the auditorium, in the Jus-
tice, in the theater, in the hand-
book, in the Faculty Center, in
the information booth and in
their homes Brandeis students
are exerting verbal pressure on

the hierarchy. A kind of infor-
mal student propaganda cam-
paign, with all the consistency
and discipline of a sophisti-
cated movement, is having its
effects at the highest levels.

Why should what students
write or say at Brandeis make
any diflerence to the Univer-
sity? It appears that for some
reason the institution is not
just dependent on student com-
pliance — it needs their enthu-
siasm in order to be great to-
day and survive fiscally tomor-
row. And when a great ma-
jc^rity of its students become
alienated from the school, the
sc1k)o1 has something to worry
about. In Brandeis' case, for ex-
ample, the day is soon coming
when Brandeis will be depend-
ent on its alumni. This thought
tends to make the University
more responsive to student
"complaints."

When the "Vice-President of
the Board of Trustees spoke
here last week students heard
something a little difTcrent than
what they had expected. Mr.

Wien attributed campus strug-
gles not to student immaturity
but to their growing "serious-
ness " and sophistication. He
seemed to imply that, while
administrators would rule at
present, the school would even-
tually be controlled by the
alumni. In that case, the cur-
rent sUident point of view
would be adopted if we didn't
"grow too old too fast." The
day before Mr. Wien spoke,
Barnard's President Ro.semary
Park gave her Trustees a
unique definition of "the edu-
cational task of a college " It
is "to make clear that it is not
identical with the Establish-
ment, that its ideal of free in-
quiry is not restricted by the
vested interests." (Sounds like
a Justice editorial!) Miss Park
added that "the college's devo-
tion to free inquiry is ques-
tioned most often in the attack
upon parietal rules." And, in
our own case, even though the
new Brandeis regulations leave
much to be desired, it is at least

Although he was ordained in
May. he "looks so old," the
chaplain explains, because he
worked as an engineer for
seven years after his gradu-
ation from the University of
Toronto in 1949. From 1951 un-
til 1953 he worked in London
which he enjoyed "because of
the varied types of people" he
was able to meet there, and
because his vacations aflorded
him an opportunity to go hos-
teling on tlie Continent.

Afte'r four more years of en-
gineering work in Canada,
Father Troy entered the Paulist
seminary of Washington, D.C.
He describes the order, founded
by an American transccnden-
talist, as a gioup with the ad-
mittedly vague aim of "relating
the Catholic churcli to modern
America."

One summer. Father Troy
worked as a deacon in Austin,
Texas, where he also advised
the Newman Club at the Uni-
versity of Texas. He believes
that it is too early to compare
that institution to Brandeis, but
he did remark on the fact that
in Texas, where the university
is predominantly Baptist, he
was working with a religious
group in the minority as he is Cushing

is that man cannot dictate his

significance of folk songs and
oral epics. In folk songs, he
said, people describe their
search for "the way" to live
their lives; the heroes of the
great epic poems surrender
themselves to being shown "the
way" by the gods. Thus,
Aeneas, though often tempted
to end his search for the site
of Rome, follows his destiny as
pointed out by the gods. Odys-
seus alone may return to
Greece only because he liad
the wisdom to let the gods
show him the way.

But in letting yourself be
shown the way. Dr. Lee asks.

Religion and College Students

College students especially
confront these problems of
convnitment. As regards spir-
itual decisions, students arc
tempered by their association
of religion * with the "quasi-
hypocrisy" of their pareiits.
Thus, while granting decisions
on other important matters to-
wards the aim of defining
themselves in society, they un-
derestimate, or even totally
neglect, the formation of a
clarified religious stance.

Dr. Lee mentioned that sev-
eral college students he has
met blamed their parents and

Dr. Lee believes that a basic
element of Protestantism is its
tradition of questioning and

Religion Defined

Dr. Lee feels that religion

priviiig them of a meaningful
religious identity. They resent
this not merely because the\
arc deprived of what many oi
their peers have, but because
". . . religion ought to give
them a sense of the life cycle,
of life history, of continuity in
the generation of man."

Feuerbach, Marx, Kierke-

can be defined as "ultimate gaard, Nietzsche, and Freud at-
tacked religion "from a reli-

"but their attack had a pro-

for it was necessary to smash

"Narrow de Iiiiuon.s of religion given by non-religionists and confirmed by tradi-
tionalists present a great crisis in religion today", Norman Mirsky, new rabbi at Bran-
deis asserts. Rabbi Mirskv, a graduate of the University of Cincinnati, and the Hebrew
Union Colege, is the interim Jewish chaplain at Brandeis. He is a graduate student
in sociology here, and serves as rabbi at Temple Beth Am of the South Shore on week-
ends. ^^

Rabbi Mirsky as wel las the

other religious leaders on cam-
pus desires to stimulate inter-
est in religion by making it
clevir to .students that worship
is not the only part of faith.
One of the expressions of this
desire was the presentation of
Waiting for Godot last Wedne.s-
dav night. According to the
rabbi. "Brandeis students seem
tu ht?e religion wiiiiin tiic con-

text of patterned worship, and third service strictly for the Re-
to avoid this narrowness, the form students. He said, "Re-
Three Chapels plan programs form students feel that partici

wliich wil show students that
religion is involved witli activ-
ity outside the actual religious
service. One such program
proi>osed is a forum on pre-
marital sex codes."

Rabbi Mirsky as well as the
tative of the beliefs of Reform
Judaism, and is interested in
the possiljibties of instiluting a

questions concerning pressing
problems confronting both re-
ligion and the college student.
When askc-d about his opinion
toward Zionism, he replied. "It
really is a dead i.ssue now.
Most people today take Israe'l atrous way. and

DR. PAUL LEE

wants te> dictate the terms by
which he is religious; it thinks
alKJut the method of relating
to God not on man's terms but
thr(»ugh the agony of the con-
tradiction of e>ne'.s own terms.

On Being F:iked Out

According to Dr. Lee, his
"slogan," his main theme, is
"being faked out." "My first
book will be a study of Mark's
gospel called, On Reing Faked
Out: Towards a Theology of
Affirmation," he said. To be
"faked out" by God is to be
shown "the way to live: being
undone, being radically trjns-
formed and ve)uchsdfed a new
identity."

Dr. Lee gives an example
from the Pe-ter Sclh'r's movie,
A Shot in the Dark. Sellers, a
police inspector, is supposed to
be always on guard but almost
never is. Fearing that he' will
be surprised, he tells his Ori-
ental servant t») catch him
wlu'n he is off guard. "He is,"
Dr. Leo remarked, "trying to
fike out being f.iked out." Like
Sellers. peopK' do not v/ant to
be radically surprised; they cre-
ate defense meehanisms to prf»-
tect themse-lve^ from being
surpri.sed t)y God.

Dr. Lee calls the discipl'.'s of
Christ "the twelve most fyked
out men in liist(»ry." Tliey "in-
vented tlieir ultimate concern

pation in the Civil Rights
Movement is as great a mitzvah
as going to services." He also
noted that the combination of
Reform -Conservative services
make it difficult for those used
to the Reform mode of wor-
ship. Rabbi Mirsky has as one
of his plans for Brandeis serv-
ices the writing of an all Bran-
deis prayer-book and service,
with students and faculty mem-
bers both contributing. Ho says
with regard to the Conservative
trend at services. "I am sure
that if the Reform students
were to participate in greater
numbers, the students in charge
of services would try to make
them more liberal." He em-
phatically stated that just be-
cause Reform is the liberal
branch of Judaism, doesn't
mean that its adherents will be
willing to follow any .service.

Rabbi Mirsky was amazing-
ly forthright about answering

for granted though they are
thrilled by it. The real ques-
tion is in aliyah (mas.s migra-
tion to I.si del 1 , and I tliink that
America needs improving." His
feeling about pre-marital .sex-
ual relations also reflect his
liberal outlook. He feels that
before arriving at a point of
view concerning sex before
marriage, the Reform student
.should consult traditional
.sources, take into consideration
technical developments, and his
own psychological needs. It
should not be simply a spur of
the moment decision. About
theories such as Buber's I-Thou.
and those of Paul Tillich, he
believes. "Institutionalized re-
ligion has a great tendency to
seize upon creative works of
theologians and translate them
into institutional jargon just as
the Madison Avenue agency
uses psychological language"
Reconstructionism in Mirsky's
view has a great appeal to Re-
form students at one time or
another, but eventually they
become disenchanted with it
because they recognize no need
for it wit h regard to either
ritual or theology.

Our Man in Havana

Up the Revolution

Donald Yost

WBRS

Mr. Yost is ii Braiuhis yrmiuatc student. This is the second o/ two urtich's on his recent
trip to Cuba.

Books in Enjrlis)! wore available in Havana and they were as varied in subject mat-
ter as the b(H»ks in Spanish. Books written in the Soviet Union and other Eastern Euro-
pean countries were particularly interesting. There were many books containing
|)h(»toKraphs, many in color, of Hunjrary, Czechoslovakia, East Germany and the Soviet
Union. All biH)ks in Cuba are inexpensive. Prices range from ten cents for papeibacks
to four pesos for largo hardbound art books. There are also books in many languages
ctlu>r than Spanish and Eng

visilors iroin other a cane fic'ld in an effort to crip-
ple the economy. We were al-
so there singly, unannounced.
The only evidence against these
We met singly Pt't)ple was their signed confes-
members of the *^ions. Members of their fam-
ilies had been invited to the
trials to see for themselves that
no coercion was used and that
the defendants were not un-
justly convicted.

lish for
ctmntries

We met a number of people
from other countries while we
were in Cuba
and as a grciup

National Liberation Army of
Venezuela. N(»rth Vietnamese,
Algerians, Mozambiques, Tan-
ganyikans, and many others.
lHy wife and I visited the Chi-
nese, Canadian, Russian, and
North Vietnamese embassies in
Havana. Frequently this meant
talking with representatives of
governments with whom it is
impo.ssible to communicate
with in the United States. We
received a radically different
opinion of world events from
that received from the Ameri-
can press.

Religion and the Revolution

Religion in Cuba is not hin-
dered by the government, ex-
cept that the government has
taken-over religious schools. In
most houses we visited we were
assured to see a picture of Fidel
Castro and another of Jesus on
the wall. When asked about
the apparent incongruity of
this, we were informed thai
Fidel takes care of us here on
earth and Jesus lakes care of
us when we die. This seems to
be the most frequent resolu-
tion of the conflict between
Christianity and Marxism.

In Santiago de Cuba we
ppoke with a block leader of
the Committee for the Defense
of the Revolution who is a de-
vout Catholic. She saw no

Weak Cuban Economy

The Cuban economy is weak.
This is because of mistakes
made by the government short-
ly after the triumph of the
Revolution, and because of the
U. S. trade embargo. There
are many machines made in
America which are idle be-
cause of the lack of available
parts. Automobiles are rapidly
deteriorating and it is .seldom
that one sees a car with two
headlights. It is difficult to have
to depend upon the other so-
cialist countries for most of the
trade. Fidel Castro has indi-
cated several times his interest
in re-establishing trade rela-
tions with the U. S., but the
U. S. attitude is to meet such

overtures with skepticism. Re-
cently, when Fidel indicated
his hopes along this line. Pres-
ident Johnson remarked that
there was no substance to Cas-
tro's suggestion and that it was
just a propaganda move. How-
ever, the Cubans have nothing
to lose by trading with the
U. S. and much to gain.

The Cuban people would
welcome the contact with
Americans if relations were re-
established. They constantly
affirm that they love the Amer-
ican people, but dislike the
U. S. government. Why the
Cubans should feel this way is
difficult to explain. Cuba, be-
fore the Revolution was the
brothel for the eastern U. S.
People in the U. S. went to Cu-
ba on a weekend to go whor-
ing, and the U. S. sailors sta-
tioned in Cuba were certainly
less than ambassadors of good
will. I have seen photographs
of a U. S. sailor standing and
urinating from the top of a
statue of the Cuban George
Washington, Jose Marti. I have

a stage of deciding what shall be its style and character.

Out of the Slums

We were somewhat bothered
Wht n we first heard of the
Committees for the Defense of
the Revolution. Our initial
thought was that they served
as a method for people to .spy
on their neighbors for the gov-
ernment. However, we later
discovered, the functions of
the Committees are many and
varied. They do keep on the
lookout for open counter-revo-
lutionary activity, but their
main functions are to make
sure that children are attend-
ing school and to employ so-
cial pressure so that people do
things like taking out their
garbage when necessary.

The latter is a problem as a
result of people from formerly
poor conditions moving into
new ones. These people often
do not know how to take prop-
er care of their homes. The
government is constantly build-
ing sturdy new homes. Those
with the greatest need — living
in the poorest conditions and
with many children — get top
priority in housmg. When we

In addition to its regular

sentative of the student body, broadcasting activities WBRS is

working on other related proj-
ects to improve the general
Brandeis climate. It has offered
air time to members of the ad-
ministration in an effort to im-
prove relations among different
factions in the school. The
radio station sponsored a large
party in Mailman Hall at the
end of orientation week this
year, and conducied another
experimental party a few
weeks ago in Deroy Lounge. It
is presently installing direct
wires to high fidelity equip-
ment in Feldberg Lounge to
provide live broadcasting for
future parties. This spring
WBRS hopes to sponsor an out-
door Baroque music concert in
Ridgewood Quadrangle. WBRS
assists Brandeis' Northern Stu-
dent Movement by inviting stu-
dents from Roxbury to the sta-
tion to learn the operations of
broadcasting, and soon, hope-
fully to have their own rock
and roll show. Folk music sings
to be broadcast live from the
fireplace room in Mailman Hall
are planned for the winter and
student art work is displayed
in its Studios.

At present, WBRS is a mem-
ber of the University Broad-
casting System (including
M.I.T., Harvard. Boston Uni-
versity, and W e 1 1 e s 1 e y ) .
Through UBS it can transmit
special programs live by FM
transmission to the Greater
Boston area. The recent "Critic-
ism of American Civilization"
by four Japanese students, con-
ducted in this way, was very
successful, and others like it
are planned. The station is try-
ing to build up a good news
department and hopes to ac-
quire its own UPI news write.

lather than sounding like an
ordinary radio station. Its out-
standing shows are those which
are of peculiar interest to the
Brandeis community. The
"Wien Forum," .or example,
gives foreign students an oppor-

students enrolled in that class.
Campus events, usually gone
unnoticed because of weak
school communications, are an-
nounced at seven and eleven
every evening.

WBRS caters to the college
commimjty also by providing a

which students may arrange to

John Cana-
day has called him "something
of a summary of the German
expressionist experience." But
this phrase somehow connotes
an eclecticism which I did not
find in Beckmann. If occasion-
ally one sees the influence of
Kirchner, say, in certain angu-
lar forms (the sleeves of a blue
smoking jacket which he wears
in one self-portrait), the black
contours of Georges Rouault
are far more prevalent, al-
though more radically trans-
lormed. In keeping with this
impression of individuality,
Beckmann is here discussed as
a revealer of the hidden, a
creator of a concrete world in
which the candid and the mys-
terious unabashedly exist side
loy side.

Drama

The world of Beckmann is a
dramatic one. Everything em-
phatically exists. His forms are
massive and tangible, yet sim-
plified and direct. To give
volume to a figure he will often
paint one area of it with light
hitting it, or cast its shadow
on a nearby object. He deli-
neates his figures and forms by
means of a rich black contour
which not only distinguishes
each individual from all others
but which also brings each fig-
ure forward, out from its own
background. In certain of his
more entirely mystical scenes —
The Removal of the Sphinxes
or the central panel of The De-
parture — his presentation be-
comes stark. The background is
neutral: a blank sky fills the
top of the picture. This bare-
ness is a visual silence. It works
almost literally with the sptiin-
xes; it is more a subjective
tone in The Departure panel.
This mode of drama is reminis-
cent of the surrealistic silence
of Giorgio de Chirico, and the
clocks that Beckmann often in-
terjects in his paintings also re-
call that static, hushed quality.

The Artist's Perspective

Beckmann is cinematographic
His paintings often look as if
they have mucti in common
with movie stills. An indication
of this can be found in his inter-
est in physical point of view.
With Van Eyck we were usually
in the room in which the paint-
ing occurred. With Rubens and
others, we were often above or
below the center of action.

'( we Didi, to make
believe we exist."

The mingled pathos and comedy of these statements
epitomize the emotional tone of Samuel Beckett's "Wait-
ing for (iodot." The play was presented last Wednesday
night in Schwartz auditorium by the Theatre Company of

Boston.

to the recent tradition of

MAX BECKMANN

Self Portrait

Beckett's play belongs
Theatre of the Absurd. This
contemporary theatre repre-
sents a philosophical break
with the common-sense notion
of reality. It depicts isolation of
human beings from one an-
other, the breaking down of
logical sequence, and the des-
pair and futility which inde-
libly mark "our generation." It
is for this reason that a play
like ••Godot" .speaks to many of
us so personally.

Tragic Vaudeville
"Godot" combines features of
a vaudeville act and tragedy.
It utilizes a number of slap-
.stick techniques: the quick and
repetitive alternation of speak-
ers, a continuing routine with
hats, the contrast of straight-
man and sidekick, the gross
humor of a character losing his
trousers. All this is effectively
counterposed with the tragic
implications of a life — our
life — spent eternally awaiting
the fulfillment of a nebulous
promise of salvation.

The prospects of salvation
are gloomy, for Godot never
comes, in spite of his promises.
Yet the prospect of human rela-
tion.ships are gloomy too. We

see two relationships in the
play; that of Gogo and Didi. and
that of Pozzo and Lucky Gogo
and Didi are tramps who liave
apparently been homo.sexujilly
involved for many years; they
have been together so long
that they love and hate each
other desperately. Their roles
are both conflicting and com-
plementary.

Didi (Vladimir) is the more
articulate and rational; Gogo
(Estragon) is the more emo-
tional and childlike. Yet their
relationship is strangely incon-

night alone in a ditch where
he is repeat(<lly beaten by
strangers. Why this is so re-
mains a mystery.

Pozzo and Lucky

If Gogo and Didi have at
least a certain amount of affec-
tion for each other, Pozzo and
Lucky represent the most pri-
mitive and brutal of human re-
lationships, that of master and
slave. In this sadomasochistic
relationship, both lose their
humanity.

A crucial element in "Wait-
ing for Godot" is the treatment
of time Each act represents one
day, which may be Saturday
or Sunday, Thursday or Friday
as far as the characters know.
The season, too, is indetermi-
nate: one day the tree is bare,
the next it is covered with
leaves But even these two days

took place directly overhead.
This had become less important
in modern art, yet Beckmann
shows his concern for the prob-
lem. In a triptych called The
Actors we see a stage with its
wings. But each panel is seen
from a different angle. In one,
a girl sitting on the steps to the
stage is radically foreshortened
(we are above). In another, the
musicians in the orche.'^tra are
viewed almost head-on. Within
each scene there is a shifting
of perspective, and this only the
painter can do.

The Artist's Prejudice
Beckmann is biased Not only
does he choose certain hidden
things to reveal, for the artist s
chief prerogative is selection,
but he enlarges things in terms
of subjective significance and
often accentuates only a certain
aspect of a certain thing. His
light falls inconsistently (in a
naturalistic sense), yet it con-
sistently finds the most import-
ant elements of the design or
the theme, and either floods
t'hem or highlights them dra-
matically. A good example of
this can be seen in his self-port-
raits. The brow and forehead
usually receive the light and
the rich painting of them be-
comes quite sensuous. The sen-
suality of his nudes can often
be noted in a particular passage
of paint in the thigh, or even
the neck. Then there is the
other side of selection That is,
the choosing and enlarging of
the hidden elements of any
scene. Beckmann relies on cer-
tain symbols They invariably

Br.indeis

When asked, Mr. Wien re-
counted how he became in-
volved in Brandeis. Hv sent one
hundred dollars in response to
a mailing anc? was subsequently
invited to meet Dr. Sachar.
Sold on the idea of a Jewish-
sponsored non- sectarian college
he contributed ten thousand
dollars. He and Dr Sachar tried
to convince a wealthy Chi-
cagoan to sponsor foreign stu-
dents at Brandeis While Mr.
Wien's pitch failed to persuade
the Chicagoan. it was good
enough to convince himself. So
was born the Wien Scholarship
Program.

When he became interested
in Brandeis, an undergraduate
college of 1200 was planned,
along with some graduate de-
partments Now Mr. Wien looks
forward to a center of learning
with graduate study in all
fields.

One student asked how Juda-
ism fitted into the Brandeis Mr.
Wien would like to .see. We
should try to learn about it, he
said, as we do about all reli-
gions. This should not be a

proselytizing institution.
Who's in Charge Here?

He advised students to re-
concile themsc>lves to th*- fact
that decisions will be nriade by
the administration Studrnts
can play only a consultative
role, he suggested Tht admin-
istration will always legislate.

In response to a (juestion
about why so much money was
nc edtd by the University, he
explained that faculty rntm-
hers. like generals, w ji n t e d
more and more people under
them. When accused of cyni-
cism, he admitted the analogy
was imperfect.

Mr. Wien has had the repu-
tation among the student imdy
of being one of the most
"liberal." of the Brandeis trus-
tees.

cliche. There is no artificial

there isn't any question that

certain sense, all time
"Godot" is a single instant
waiting.

A production of "Waiting for
(iodot" sliould brin^ out both
tlie zany humor and the pathos
of the characters' situation. It
should delineate the comple-
mentary roles of Gogo and
Didi, Pozzo and Lucky, and it
should give the impression of a
suspension of everyday time.

The play is a difficult one
to produce, for there are few
stage directions of physical des-
criptions, and thus a great deal
is left open to interpretation.

Wednesday night's produc-
tion was interesting in many
respects. The costuming, by
Mary Shepley, was imaginative,
especially Pozzo (Ken Kerche-
val), red-faced and wearing a
d:\rk suit, who was tiie epitome
of brutality cloaked in urban-
ity. The set. toy Alexander Pert-
zofT, was pleasantly imoi)tru-
sivc, as is fitting for this play.

Poor Articulating

The acting was adeciuate but
not brilliant. Paul B. Price and
Paul Benedict, as Estragon and
Vladimir respectively, were at
their best in the purely slap-
stick segments of the play,
where timing and facial ex-
pressions were often used to
greatest advantage. However.
Benedict in particular seemed
to have trouble articulating
clearly, and his .serious speeches
in the second act were badly
slurred over.

Mr. Price seemed generally
to have a better conimand of
his part. He effectively brought
out the gentle and childlike
qualities of Gogo. The contrast
between him and Didi, tlie more
intellectual, was not as marked
as it might have been.

David Wheeler's direction
seemed aimed at accentuating
the comic aspects of the play.
While this is one way to play
"Godot," it seems to this re-
viewer that the tragic aspects
could have been better handled.
For example, Vladimir's last
long speech, one of the most
philosophical of the play, was
underplayed. Pozzo's magnifi-

cent "astride of a grave" speech
came across fairly well, but be-
cause of the generally one-sided
nature of the production up to
that point, it did not carry the
weight that it could have. The
humorous aspect of Godot had
been played up so exclusively
that any serious speech seemed
incongruous.

It should be remarked at this
point that there were technical
ditliculties involved in present-
ing the play in Schwartz Hall.
One significant handicap was
that the actors were forced to
exit through the center aisle at
the end of the first act, whereas
tlie stage directions explicitly
read, "They do not move." The
fact that they never leave is
crucial to the meaning of the
play. However, in some ways
the relative informality of the
auditorium may have increased
the audience's feeling of inti-
macy with the actors.

Cuba and the animalistic ac-

A Second Bay of Pigs?

What is the chance of an in-
vasion's success? Cuba is an
jsland nation, and like the Bril-
i^li, the Cubans would light to
the last ditch and to the last
man, so great is love of coun-
try. We met a man in Havana
wiio is opposed to the present
r( gime in Cuba and who had
been in jail at the time of the
Bay of Pigs invasion attempt.
We asked h^m what he would
have done were he out of jail
v.lien the invasion occurred,
ile answered that he would
have fought on the side of Cas-
tro against the invaders. "This
is a Cuban problem and no paid
mercenaries from the U. S. or
any other country have any
business interfering in our in-
ternal affairs." This point of
view was echoed by many
other Cubans we talked with.

When the Revolution tri-
umphed there was a need for
bousing. People who had more
than one house had all but the
one the owner was living in
confiscated, but some of these
people are understandably un-
happy. Some of these people
make enough money from the
government payments that
they do not have to work. Ex-
cept for this segment of the
population, there is total em-
ployment in Cuba. However,
since the others do not work,
they are the most readily avail-
able for visitors to talk to.
They inhabit the bars and and
luxury hotels. Often we would
meet one of them who, when
he discovered that we were
North Americans, would take
us ofT into a corner and whis-
per that if he were heard he
would be jailed. After this in-
troduction, he would begin
shouting about the conditions
in Cuba. Generally, someone
who was in favor of the Revo-
lution would come over and be-
gin arguing with him. Nothing
ever happened to these people.
Freedom of speech exists in
Cuba and one can say what he
plea.ses as long as he only talks.
Wiien anyone goes farther than
that and performs a counter-
revolutionary act, he is impris-
oned, as should happen. Free-
dom to speak one's mind and
to criticize are real.

Freedom and Democracy,
Cuban Style

Critics of Cuba say that the
conditions may be changed, but
that since there is no Ireedom
in Cuba the impiovcmenls m
men's lives are of no impor-
tance. Such critics point to the
lack of elections in Cuba, the
fact that armed militia men
stand on each corner and that
there are no opposition parties
in Cuba. Such critics generally
compare Cuba with the United
States and this is their mistake.

The Cuban Revolution has
been over for live years and
yet there are no elections of
leaders. However, the Cuban
constitution is presently being
written. One must remember
that it was eight years after the
American Revolution that we
finally got our constitution, ana
England still does not have a
written constitution. Also, Cu-
ba has a different tradition
from that of the U. S Rich
people in Cuba once bought
the votes of the poor and elec-
tions were of no value m de-
termining the will of the pco-
pie. As a result, the Cubans to-
day have a distrust of the elec-
tion process. They are afraid
that they might lo.se what they
have gained after their hard
struggle.

There is another factor which
which enters into Cuban free-
dom which critics generally
overlook. Fidel Castro's office
is his automobile. He may and
does appear without warning
anywhere on the islard. Few
people have not met him. He
generally will soow up at a
factory or farm and inquire of
the individual workers how
things are and what should be

changed. All of the leaders of
Cuba travel around in the same
way. Because there are armed
militia men in Cuba, many peo-
ple have tried to represent Cuba
as a police state. Yet, more
than half of the Cuban popula-
tion is armed. How can a tyran-
nical rule continue with so
many people armed? There is
no indication that a counter-
revolution will occur or is even
a remote possibility.

Elections do occur in Cuba.
"Union and provincial leaders,
as well as members of the Rev-
olutionary Party — which
makes many important deci-
sions. The main problem with
comparing Cuba with the US
is that Cuba's political system
is Democratic Centralism. That
means that there is only one
political party, but also that
opposition comes from within
the party and not from with-
out. In theory, Democratic Cen-
tralism is as democratic as a
system with opposition parties.
The new constitution will help
to answer questions about fur-
ther freedoms in Cuba.

This is what we found in
Cuba. The US government
has reacted with indictments
against eleven of us. If con-
victed, we could be fined up to
$20,000 and ten years in pri-
son apiece. If Cuba is as bad
as the government wants us to
believe, why can't we legally
go to Cuba to see for ourselves?

the world of men. The triptych
is an ideal medium for Beck-
mann. Not only can he explore
a scene from radically different
points of view, but he can also
juxtapose his hidden themes. In
The Departure, mystery is

flanked by brutality on either
side. Sex lurks everywhere.

Beckmann presents every-
thing in the same light. This
presentation is an unreal one.
He often uses unreal subject
matter (not just the unreality
of a v/oman laid by a fish, but
also the unreality of a stage of
acrobats or falsely bleeding
actors). In this unreal presenta-
tion of both reality and un-
reality, they both become
equally "real." Thus while
Beckmann is biased, he is bi-
ased for an ultimate equality of
the real and the unreal.

Possible for the first time to schedule coast to coast, big payload hauling. Ford Motor Company's answer to

the challenge is this experimental tractor-trailer combination. A tandem axle drive tractor, powered by

a 600 hp gas turbine engine permits a cruising speed of 70 miles per hour, a non-stop range o 600 ^-les

Desianed for long-distance, non-stop operation, the two-man cab includes sleeping facilities, fold-away table.

cruising' speed, the truck will be compatible with the normal passenger car flowrate of traffic.

Other unique features are its odorless exhaust and extremely quiet operation.

THE JUSTICE

November 24, 1964

On the Judges' Bench

Hoop-La

Pete Weiner

The court Jud^jres will have to stage an uphill fight
to break .500 in Irv (31in*s second full season. A lack of
height and the loss of Co-Capt. Dave Epstein and two
lettermen will be hard felt. Dave was sidelined a month
ago with a ruptured spleen. His playing outlook is ques-
tionable at present. Dave's loss is especially unfortunate
since he was beginning to show the team leadership and
aggressiveness that is so vital for a winning team. It will
also be hard to replace the scoring ability of Stu Paris
(18.1) average) and the playmaking of Eddie Sukenick, last
year's co-captains.

Coach Olin has several bright freshman prospects in
6-5 Dave Jacobson and 6-2 Jack Rovner. Both Jacobson
and Kovner will probably join the varsity and play an
ini{)ortant role during the season. Jacobson may start and
has the size and shooting ability to help the hoopsters.

Co-Capt. Richie Hymoff may be the key to the
Judges' fortunes. The 5-10 senior must lead the team on
the court and reach his scoring potential if the Judges are
to improve. Richie will be joined in the backcourt by Barry
Zimmerman, the freshman team's leading scorer last year.

The big men this year are senior Mel Segal and
Jacobson. Mel, a 6-4, 210-j)ounder, has shown improvement
over last year's spotty performance. Santo Cimino and
Steve Heller will probably fill out the squad at the for-
wards. Santo should be effective off the boards and on
offense. Steve could be one of the Judges big guns this
year if he lives up to his potential.

Other members of the squad fighting for starting
positions are junior Mike Leiderman, sophomores Richie
Epstein, Jeff Schwamm, Steve CfOldstein, Gerry Katz, Eric
Epstein and Howie Pearlman.

Last year the Judges dipped to a 6-20 record. Lack of talent,
height, and aggressiveness plus a long, hard schedule and inter-
nal dissen.«ion were the causative factors. This year things may
be different.

hard road ahead if they are to
break .500 this season. There
are 21 games — 10 home and
11 away. The Judges will have
to play top-notch basketball to
regain their status as a small
college power. Several teams
are missing from last year's
slate — notably NYU, Maine,
and UMass. But the team must
still contend with Rhode Island,
Harvard, St. Michaels and Bos-
ton College.

Coach Olin has shown re-
served optimism. He started:
"We're on our way back but
we'll be lucky to hit the .500
mark this year. Lack of height
again will be our big problem."

The Judges will have to de-
pend on speed and alertness to
offset the lack of height. Olin
has been teaching the team de-
fense and hopes the results will
be increased steals and fast
breaks. With Richie Hymoff
and Barry Zimmerman in the
backcourt, the Judges have a
duo who combine speed with
shooting ability. Mel Segal or
Dave Jacobson should give the
Judges height. thoui?h not near-
ly enough. Steve Heller and
Santo Cimino should combine
to give the team an added
scoring punch up front.

Kappa.

Chosen in recognition of their scholastic distinction
were: Naomi Jaffe (now on the Hiatt program) and Emily

Paradise, both Politics majors;*

Robert S. Hand of the History
Department; Laurin Raiken of
the Psychology Department;

13,000 Hear Kerr at Berkeley;

FROM THE HARVARD CRIMSON

Thirteen thousand students and faculty members
gathered Monday in the Greek amphitheater of the Berke-
ley campus of the University of California to hear Presi-
dent Clark Kerr announce that the University would not
take any punitive action against the students arrested in
last week's free speech sit-in demonstrations.

Kerr stated that University,
officials had decided to leave

The arrest of the students
was ordered by California Gov-
ernor Edmund "Pat" Brown.

Ad Committee Rejects Proposal For
Tripartite University Government

Dean Morrissey and President Sachar have responded negatively this week to
student requests for more participation in University affairs. Student Council, in an ef-
fort to more effectively present its opinions on current campus issue* to parents, will
issue a Bulletin this month.

Student plans for the tripartite government of student affairs have been blocked
by the Administrative Committee. Dean Morrissey, speaking for the Committee, stated,
*'The desire of students to par-4
ticipate more fully in the affairs
of the University is understand-
able, but the assumption of pro-
portional representation as ex-
pressed in this plan is inad-
missable for all levels of Uni-
versity administration."

The Ad Committee recom-
mended, however, the establish-
ment of a Committee as a forum

istration discussion of campus
affairs. This committee, to con-
sist of three elected Student
Council leaders, four resident 1 ber 18.

The Student Service Bureau
announced that the Thelonious

was notified last week that Mr.
Monk was in the hospital and
would be unable to attend the

At the rescheduled concert
Mr. Monk will cut an album
entitled "Thelonious Monk at

ranging from bargain to con-
fiscatory, included such useful
items as a mannekin with wig,
a Russian scrabble set, a bra

sorted services of five willing
coeds, and an abundance of
stuffed animals.

Early Plans
On Housing
Are Required

Applications for permission
to live off campus were due
yesterday in the housing office.
They are being required early
this year so that the housing
office can inform the graduate
school of its requirements for
Ridgewood Quad, according to
Associate Dean of Students
Leonard Zion. For this reason
room drawings will be held
from March 29-April 9 instead
of the usual date after the
Spring Recess. Decisions of fin-
ancial aid will also be made
earlier to help students make
future plans.

Dean Zion said that the ad-
mission of new students will
not bo seriously affected by the
number of on-campus residents.
He also stated that there are
no plans to build now dormi-
tories, although the Ford Re-
port calls for
dorms by 1970.

"and those demonstrations are
anarchy."

The President's announce-
ment represented an accession
to one of the demands of the
Free Speech Movement, the
student group that has organ-
ized the protests. FSM has also
demanded removal of the re-
cently-enacted regulation that
declares students who partici-
pate in off-campus civil dis-
obedience to be subject to Uni-
versity discipline. The regula-
tion is still in force.

Immediately after Kerr
spoke, Mario Savio, one of the
FSM leaders, attempted to gain
control of the microphone, but
University police hauled him
from the platform and would
not let him speak.

Berkeley faculty members
raised more than $80,000 Fri-
day to bail out all the students
who had been arrested the day
before.

Meanwhile, scores of pickets
urged students to boycott classes
yesterday. Many departments
canceled classes altogether, and
attendance at classes which
were held was reported as
sparse.

Berkeley Vigil

Fifty Brandeis students
joined with Harvard students
in a vigil on Friday night, De-
cember 4 at Harvard Memorial
Hall protesting the recent ar-
rests on the Berkeley campus
jf the University of California.
The students joined the vigil
in response to a call for pro-
test by the Committee for an
Ideal Campus and Harvard's
Students for a Democratic So-
ciety.

The Brandeis picket captain
offered the following explana-
tion to a Boston Globe reporter
for the interest among Bran-
deis students in the "Berkeley
Affair." "Brandeis students are
particularly interested in the
struggle of students everywhere
for greater freedom on their
university campuses. They are
also very sensitive to the use
of repressive authority by col-
lege administrators in general
against the interests of students
and faculty — a situation with
which they are quite familiar."

The Committee has been ex-
amining ways to achieve great-
er student-faculty liberty at
Brandeis. The Berkeley stu-
dent struggle had naturally at-
tracted tiie attention of the or-

Unlike plenty of the
ishes" between adult
and youth over the problems of
maturity and emancipation, the
issue of sex cannot simply be
passed off as "growing pains."
Unfortunately, the only youths
who volunteer to come to grips
with adults over the issue are

she is seduced — exemplary, of
course, of a totally premature
concern for "serious" sex. And
too often it's not the girl's
choice, she is deceived or
coerced. One criminal is h e r
seducer (regardless ef age or
experience), the other is her
family. How long can you keep
your children innocent? They
lose a part of their innocence
sooner than you think, and
without your even being there.

Berkeley and Brandeis

The mass arrest of 800 demonstrators at Berkeley
last week brings into locus once again the discrepancy oi
opinion entertained in this country between students and
their administrative lords and masters.

Once aj^ain it is made obvious that the younger gen-
eration feels stronKly that a university should be one place
in a society where the norms of that very society can be
questioned and (luestioned with total freedom.

Totally apart from this concept of a university is that
which was articulated by Dean Morrissey a few weeks ago
at a panel discussion on the ideal university: **When 1
speak of the ideal university, I want to hear about money,
and lots of it."

Outside image, public opinion, and, alas, money, must
have been very much at the root of the Berkeley adminis-
tration's decision to end the distribution of political in-
formation on the California campus (a long-time tradition
there).

The Berkeley students (some of them Brandeis alumni
who have kept in constant touch with us) were protesting
as much to maintain their concept of a true university, as
to regain the single privilege of distributing political
material.

We sympathize wholeheartedly with their protest, and
urge those who agree with us to sign the petition currently
being circulated to that effect.

In addition, we ask students here at Brandeis to con-
sider that it is just these public-image, money centered
forces which are responsible for the present trend at this
university.

Our arguments here have never been directed against
any one particular deprivation of privileges (although
some have been more blatant than others), but against an
administration which, tragically (and the word is not
used flippantly), has adopted that code of values which is
most reprehensible in our society.

What is worse, they are in a position to inflict this
code upon the very people who are most free to criticize
and improve on it — namely, the students.

Consider this. Consider the events of last week at
Berkeley. Perhaps then the realization will be reached that
if we are following a one-tracke<l "line" of attack against
the administration (as Stephen Herman writes in a letter
on this page), we are following it for deeply reasoned and
profoundly significant reasons.

her drawer against the night muddy up the whole dispute

concerning dorm government.
It is too bad that the Jvslice al-
ways finds it necessary to at-
tack the Administration en
every issue concerning student
affairs. In my short time here
at Brandeis, I have discovered
that our newspaper followed a
••line" constantly — a line just
as closeminded and dogmatic as
many political lines.

To get to the topic, your
editorial stated that dorm gov-
ernment is still quite ineffective
and meaningless. Behind this
emi^ty idea can be found your
complete lack of understand-
ing of the situation. As a dorm
councilman, let me give you
some background information.
Since the beginning of the aca-
demic year, ©ur council func-
tioned with the idea that we
would be allowed to handle
first violation cases before they
would reach the SBR. Several
weeks ago, after acting on a
violation, we were informed by
Dean Zion that we did not pos-
sess this power.

Naturally, we were quite
surprised and a little angry,
but we nevertheless sat down
with Dean Zion for several
hours one night to work out
the disagreement. He informed
us that we did not have the
stated powers. However, he
was willing to listen to us ex-
plain why we should have
resident councilors, and sever-
resident councillors, and sever-
al council memt)ers then pre-
sented our case quite well.

Dean Zion, after our presen-
tation, promised to relate our
thoughts to Dean Morrissey. He
did, and the very next day we
were informed that we now had
the power to try first violations.

Now the point is this: had we
gone into that meeting with
Dean Zion with a completely
negative approach and with
nothinjg but bad words for the
administration, we never would
have accomplished anything.
But we sa' down with the Dean
calmly, and responsibly — and
we won.

I can only judge from this
that when students express
their grievances responsibly
and diplomatically to the ad-
ministration, they will be lis-
tened to. If Dean Zion is looked
upon not as the evil Establish-
ment incarnate, but as a man
who has a job to do but will al-
ways sit down with the stu-
dents, I think things will get
done. As I say, I have only
been here a short time, but I
know that diplomacy never
fails.

So the Justice, too, could
benefit from a little more re-
sponsible statements. How
many councllmen have you
talked to who are dissatisfied
with the powers given to them
now? The SBR has its job, and
the dorm council does also.
Why not open your eyes a lit-
tle bit more and shake off your
"line" — for as Socrates said,
"The partisan, when he is en-
gaged in a dispute, cares noth-
ing about the rights of the
question."

Stephen Herman '68

(EDITOR'S REPLY: It is
ironic that a group of people,
having been arbitrarily stripped
of a certain set oj rights, finds
pleasure in the jact that they
are allowed to discuss their
position with the very people
who have taken their rights
aicay.

Dean Zion's willingness to
listen to complaints is no source
oj satisfaction for the students:
this is merely an easy part of
his ?ob here.

If your professor told you
that no one in the class was
getting a higher mark than a
"D," would you jump for joy
when he admits the possibility
of giving the best-behaved a

In fact, the basic relationship
between students and adminis-
trators remains unchanged: ad-
ministrators hold the power to
declare lohat students may and
may not decide for themselves
in many areas of university
life.

What is worse, they have per-
petrated the "self -governance"
myth with such finesse that the
students themselves are begin-
ning to believe it.)

THE JUSTICE

The Student Board of Review, the judicial body of
the Student Union, is presently interpreting its-role ia

Levinson, Chief Justice of the Board, SBR functions so
that **no individual can be deprived of any rights without
due process of law."

Questionnaire Summary

. . . Is the Best Policy

By MEL FREILICHER

The freshman and sophomore
classes have the most conven-
tional standards of academic
honesty on campus. This is es-
pecially true for the girls in
these two classes. The Justice's
honesty questiunnaire has also
siiowed seniors have the most
"liberal" standards of any
group at Brandeis — for exam-
ple only 5.3% of the senior girls
thought it was dishonest to
read a trot instead of the orig-
inal material while 75% of the
sophomore girls did.

Juniors were the next most
liberal group. In some ways
they were more unconvention-
al than the seniors. Both sen-
ior boys and senior girls were
strongly against copying some-
one else's test paper or some-
one else's term pa()er. In fact,
every senior answering, with
the exception of three "unde-
cided," considered both these
acts dishonest. The juniors
had no such objections to
either act In fact 18% of the
Juniors who responded did not
classify copying someone else's
test paper as dishonest. This is
in sharp contrast to 3.75% in
the sophomore answerers and
the 2.30% of the freshmen.

iors should have cheated more

cases, this was incorrect. We
found only 3.4% of the senior
cla.ss who said they had ever
copied someone's test paper.
Compare this to 19% of the
juniors and 9.75% of the soph-
omores who admit having done
the same. The freshman class
figure is 12.05%, but this is not
significant because the ques-
tionnaire was compiled before
many freshmen had exams at
Brandeis.

The Justice questionnaire
didn't attempt to explain these
results. There may be many
explanations. Perhaps the un-
derclassmen have experienced
more pressure in high school
concerning marks and "getting
into a good college." (sic) The
cheating at Brandeis might be
an elaboration of this anxiety.
Perhaps the underclassmen
simply have more sophisti-
cated views of honesty. But
this is doubtful — the seniors

Alan Zerkin

Two of the most important names in turn-of-the-century paintinj? are Edouard
Vuillard and Pierre Bonnard. They were both members of a group of artists (centered Jn spite of the treacherousness of the inclement

in southern France) called the Nabis (literally, "prophets"). They both were influ- weather and the basketball game being held in the gym

hibitions in New York (the Modern Museum showed Bonnard in its new wing, while Saturday, December 5, and was treated to thoroughly en-

— joyable and often exciting performances by the Brandeis

traits) while for Bonnard in an ironic way. He draws his Choral Union, Chamber Orchestra, and Chamber Chorus

Vuillard was at the Wilden-
stein Gallery). A good deal of
similarity has been noted be-
tween the two in the past. I
simply intend to compare them,
with a view toward the simila-
rity of the problems they at-
tack and the differences in ap-
proach to these problems.

One of the most immediately
evident aspects of the work of
Vuillard is his use of pattern.
The walls of his rooms are
covered by the regular patterns
of nineteenth century wall-
paper. His sewing or reading
women wear patterned dresses;
the tablecloths and rugs pro-
vide similarly recurrent de-
signs. It is the artificial pattern
which concerns him. He sets
one off against another, here
blending, there contrasting. His
juxtapositions are never brash.
He handles his patterns with
great care. He is the painter
who harmonizes a variety of
decorative surfaces and. in do-
ing so, creates an independent
work of art. Bonnard loo is
involved with the use of pat-
tern. But the designs he uses
are not synthetic. In an early
picture (influenced by Vuil-
lard) a group of children are
playing in a park. They are in
black, and are separated from
one another by a pattern cre-
ated by their light hands. This
is an early point in the de-
velopment of his sense for "un-
covering" pattetrns in nature
(since this is an initial attempt,
the pattern seems more "con-
trived" than "found"). In his
later landscapes, this discovery
of natural patterns reaches its
culmination. Trees, flowers and
plants interweave over the most
of the canvas. He constructs a
complex weft of colors and
forms. In the iiustration, Bon-
nard's placement of ptople is
indicative of the "early" period
©f natural pattern.

Form and light also play im-
portant roles in the work of
Vuillard and Bonnard. Vuil-
lard's light is the light of the
interior, as synthetic as his
patterns. But it is not used as
a modeling agent (his forms
are generally flat). Instead, it
acts as a further medium for

distinct) each area contains a tions implying very active mo-

conductor must be commended
for keeping the various groups

On what we might term the
gross level, then, the concert
was quite successful. It must be
said, however, that to a certain
extent the musical whole con-

executions of individual pass-

sion of annoyance, Mr. Lucier
turned to some of the persons
in the aisles near the stage and
began ushering them to their
seats. Besides providing comic
relief, this made the best of the
interruption by integrating it,
so to speak, into, and thereby
enhancing the lighthearted,
rather intimate, atmosphere of
the first half of the program.

The Chamber Chorus then
performed two pieces of WiV

one examines these paintings,
one realizes that there is no
movement. Bonnard's figures
are very carefully placed, stat-
ically placed. In the earlier ex-
amples of this series, Bonnard
emphasizes the lack of motion

distorted to work into the con-
fines of a bathtub).

Thus we cannot primarily
distinguish between Vuillard
and Bonnard on the basis of
naturalism. I would like to
make my fundamental distinc-
tion in terms of their respective

voices stood out occasionally. It
is worth mentioning the inter-

chorus as a whole was spaced
unusually widely and the three
singers of each range were

placement achieved an open
texture that allowed the sing-

creating a unity and interweav-

lationship at BtancJeis.

A more vague and impres-
sionistic explanation, but one
which seems to lie closer to the
truth, can be found by com-
paring the "personalities" of
the two student bodies. Bran-
deis, it seems to me, is a far
more competitive and aggres-
sive place than Bryn Mawr.
People tend to be less concern-
ed with being "nice," even with
doing "what is right" on a
social and operational level.
Brandeis students lack the
Quaker background of many
Bryn Mawr students and are
more uniformly motivated tow-
ards achievement in the acade-
mic world. I do not mean to say
that there were not many
aggressive achievers at Bryn
Mawr — only that their pres-
ence was a bit more tempered
with an atmosphere of codes
and "honor" than it is at Bran-
deis

I am not sure that a sense of
"honor" and codes is exclusive-
ly a good thing. It can lead to
tight and petty rules which
bind and imprison. 1 do not
even intend to state that cheat-
ing on exams is a categorical
"wrong" for ever and ever I
am not so sure about morality
thit I can dictate its tenets to
other*. I do mean to suggest,
however, that an academic
honor system can be put on a
more operational basis than a
sense of outrage at the "sin" of
cheating. The evils of cheating
were actually di.scusscd very
little at Bryn Mawr; it was just
accepted that, no matter what
the ultimate morality of the
question, come hell or high
water, you were rust not goin^
to cheat. You choose not to
dieit, because it is more pleas-
ant and A(\u\i to live in an atmos-
phere where cheating does not

incidents in a student-Univer-
sity conflict over regulations
restricting on-campus and off-
campus political activity.

During September, Univer-
sity officials issued orders pro-
hibiting on campus recruitment
and solicitation of funds by any
political or non-political group
and also declaring off-campu3
illegal activity, including civil
disobedience, a University
"crime," subject to University
disciplinary procedure.

After early demonstrations
eight students were suspended,
but they were ordered rein-
stated by the University re-
gents two weeks ago. The origi-
nal prohibition against on-
campus activity has been modi-
fied to permit fund-raising and
recruiting in a few designated
campus areas.

But the conflict flared up
again when letters were mailed
by the University administra-
tion to Mr. Savio, Arthur Gold-
berg, his sister Jackie Gold-
berg, and Brian Turner.

The four were advised that
charges had been made against
them in connection with their
campaign against the Univer-
sity administration.

charges against the four be
withdrawn, that the University
promise that no more charges
of a similar nature would be
made and that no new rules in-
hibiting freedom of political ac-
tivity be made.

The "ultimatum" was ig-
nored. Noon speeches in the
plaza in front of the Student
Union Building and the sit-in
followed.

The student body president
Charles Powell and folk-singer
Joan Baez, found themselves
on opposite sides of the issue
that day. Powell pleaded with
a crowd of several thousand
students gathered in the plaza
"do not do this thing" while
Baez sang several civil rights
movement songs and encour-
aged the students who went
into S p r o u I Hall by urging
"have love as you do this thing

of Roche's first law of politics
— "When in doubt, shoot the
opposition."

Common good emerges as
the autobiography of the state,
for as the state tests its free-
doms it discovers what free-
doms it needs. There is really
nothing wicked about block
voting; evils are condemned,
according to Roche, by those
who don't profit. The winners
of the game of politics are the
first to oppress the losers by
changing the rules. This is evi-
denced by the desire to change
immigration laws. Block voting
protects the losers.

Americans have undergone
a stable progression of political
sophistication. The first gener-
ation is bought and sold by the
bosses. In most cases, the sec-
ond generation then "goes into
business for itself." The Jews
moved from solely thinking
about anti-Semitism and sur-
vival, to an ideology of Jewish-
ness. They became abstractly
dedicated to civil liberties, the
two-party system and political
gentility. No other group has
been able to make this change.

Law should not legalize prej-
udices. Differences should be
reflected in politics. It is im-
possible to avoid the carrying
of prejudice into politics, but
this at least eliminates the pos-

sibiliix ot uniformity. The re-
conciliation o f parochialisms
may be messy, but "freedom is
worth a little chaos."

Lubell was an excellent
speaker. The data he presented
was concise, to the point, and
very interesting. His conclu-
sions, though a bit drastic,
were convincingly documented
and forcefully stated. One must
admire his courage, especially
considering an audience over-
flowing with Jewish matrons,
in calling for a fundamental
change in voting habits.

Dr. Roche, as a speaker,
could overshadow practically
anybody, and in home terri-
tory, he had no trouble daz-
zling the audience with his wit.
However after a few minutes,
I became convinced that I was
sitting in the hall in Olin-Sang
during a Politics la lecture.
Roche's lecture was informa-
tive, and could provide a
spring-board for discussions on
the purpose of dissent and
opinion in a democracy, but as
for illuminating thought on the
complexion of Jewish voting
patterns, Roche was disappoint-
ing. If we take into account
Roche's theory that evil is con-
demned by those who don't
profit from it, then it is easy
to understand why Roche fav-
ors block voting, especially
that of the Jews; it is the most
liberal block, and he is a lib-
eral. However justifying an
event does not explain it, even
though one knows the event
well enough to manipulate it.

IN FACT,
THE ARMY'S NEW

TRUCK
GOES ALMOST ANYWHERE

Early In 1963, Ford Motor Company received a contract
from the U.S. Army to design and develop a 5-ton cargo
truck for use in tactical military operations. Before the end
of that year, the first test unit had been designed and built.
This new vehicle, called the XM656 cargo truck, was sent
to the Aberdeen Proving Ground for 40,000 miles of testing
—twice that required for military acceptance. The vehicle
was tested against road conditions that might be found
anywhere In the world : swamps . . . loose sand . . . hilly back-
country . . . and highways. During the test, the truck carried

a 10,000-lb.payload and, hairinc i....o,io..cu a .v>,c;ou-iD.load.

Outstanding characteristics of the truck's design are its
floatability, improved cross-country mobility, light weight,
reduced need for maintenance and a multi-fuel power plant
that will run on anything from diesel oil to gasoline.

This is only one of many exciting new developments at
Ford Motor Company. From manufacturing to marketing,
we are finding better ways to do things. Career opportunities
at Ford Motor Company have never been better. Schedule an

group concerning questions of
using trots, copying lab data,
cutting classes, even taking
notes to an exam. They seem
to draw a fine line on certain
questions which the others
don't draw.

There is some overlap on sev-
eral questions — that is, there
are some actions which are
not considered dishonest but
just aren't being done. (The
spirit is willing but the flesh is
weak?) For example, 87© of
those answering the survey
didn't consider taking notes to
an exam dishonest but only
4% of the respondents admit-
ted ever doing this. More
strikingly, 40% didn't consider
copying data for a lab report
dishonest (half of these were
undecided about the question),
but only 23% have ever done
this.

Overlap on Some Questions

But most questions were
closely correlated, such as the
ones already mentioned on
copying test papers. Also, 61%
of the school thought that read-
ing a trot instead of the orig-
inal was dishonest. 60% of
these interviewed said they
never committed this act. In
another case, 2.5% said that
copying someone's term paper
wasn't dishonest, and exactly
2.5% admitted to doing this.
There are some exceptions to
this — 96% consider their copy-
ing someone else's test paper
dishonest, yet 8.75% have done
this. But in general, the stu-
dents here, on dlmo.st all aca-
demic questions, are faithful to
thcjr own stimdnrds whether
they be the accepted middle
class *'v i r t u e s" or not. Of
course, there are .•^ome indi-
vidual variances. Some have
committed certain acts which
they consider dishonest while
others have not committed
these acts but not because they
consider them to be dishonest
in any way.

We found that copying .some-
one else's paper is a much more
popular way of cheating than
bringing notes to an exam. The
two compare: freshman class:
12.05% to 5.87%; sophomores:
9.75'>; to 1.2';; juniors 19% to
8 33%; .seniors: 3.4% to 5.3%.

Dean Morrissey has said that
he believes cheating on campus
is "not very widespread." He
attributed the cheating that
does go on to the "high degree
of insecurity among certain
members oi the community."
When asked why he believed
students generally didn't cheat
on exams, he replied because
of "their built-in inhibitions."
He added that "the vast num-
ber of the undergraduate body
would not cheat even when the
temptation is presented." He
called self-control the "rock of
stability on which any univer-
sity is founded," and pointed
out that it would be impossible
to control all cheating in school
without self-control as an in-
strumental fr.ctor.

The proctoring system at
Brandeis was described by the
Dean as "halfway between po-
lice state and the opposite ex-
treme " Dean Morrissey re-
calls only four cases of cheat-
ing brought to him in the past
two years. Three of these inci-
dents were dealt with by the
Administrative Committee.
This is composed of several
faculty members. Dean Mor-
rissey, Dean Zion, Mr. Sgan,
the registrar, the Dean of Ad-
missions, with the Dean of Fac-
ulty and the Dean of the Grad-
uate School as ex-officio mem-
bers. The Committee reviews
all the evidence in a case and
can take any action from issu-
ing a warning to a withdrawal
notice.

•'shock ' at the actions of Cali-
fornia authorities, encouraged
Boston stations to give objec-
tive news reports of the Berke-
ley incidents, and planned the
joint protest.

The Committee reported ex-
cellent response from the Bran-
deis student body. They se-
cured over 500 petition signa-
tures and brought a substantial
number of Brandeislans to Me-
morial Hall on only a few hours
notice. Also, WHDH-T"V agreed
to continue to televise the news
from Berkeley objectively.

The vigil Friday received
publicity from the Boston
Globe, which was especially in-
terested in the future plans of
Boston students sympathizing
with the Berkeley movement.
Brandeis' C.I.C. announced that
it would support the F.S.M.
through a fund-raising program
and further demonstrations
of moral support. Harvard's
S.D.S., however, hoped to pick-
et classes and conduct a march
through Harvard Square in
sympathy with the rebellious
students.

The Brandeis attitude was
reflected by one demonstrator.
"I think we all feel," she con-
cluded, "that we've done as
much as we can now to help
the students of Berkeley win
their battle."

points of view. I conceive of
Vuill^rd and Bonnard standing
at approximately the same
place — on the edge of a room.
Vuillard is looking in, Bonnard
is looking out. To a great ex-
tent, the subject determines the
mood of the picture. Vuillard's
light is artificial (indoors);
Bonnard's light is brilliant and
reveals the different color as-
pects of a given thing (sun-
light). Vuillard's patterns are
those of a tufn-of-the-century
apartment or home, Bonnard's
are of the countryside and the
city streets. This is, of course,
a simplification. There is sub-
stantial overlappinng, Bonnat-d
often uses interior patterns, for
example. Yet' they are less
sharply demarcated from each
other. Vuillard often paints
landscapes, yet the forms re-
main flat and clearly separable.
It is in regard to their favorite
subjects that 1 distinguish them
in terms of physical position,
yet the treatment of these
subjects reveals their basic
biases.

Let us look once more at the
idea that Bonnard is more
"naturalistic." The implication
is that he is also more personal,
more true-to-life. But, in fact,
Bonnard's style is sublimely de-
liberate, and he becomes sub-
tley impersonal. Vuillard more
obviously transforms his sub-

ject matter, yet he remains
more intimate, i will conclude
with a passage from Andre
Gide which discusses only
Vuillard, but which should help
to clarify the tempermental
distinction between the two.

"I do not know what I like

ings). Perhaps, M. Vuillard

ward off all efforts by commu-
nists and liberals to waylay
and kidnap, or to "reform" and
dilute it from within. For this
reason American Socialists
found themselves spending
most of their time merely de-
fining their aims and distin-
guishing themselves from other
groups who gave an outward
appearance of standing for sim-
ilar goals. As Howe observed,
*'the discovery of the impor-
tance of political forms," that
is, the realization that democ-
racy is neither a meaningless
sham nor a pleasant auxiliary,
but rather an essential ingredi-
ent of Socialism, was the
party's most significant con-
tribution to American social
thought.

Yet while American Social-
ists were busy rethinking their
theory, the age of ideology was
crumbling around them. The
World War, which was not
merely an imperialist collision
but a great struggle against
totalitarianism, followed by the
post-war revival of capitalism
and the experience of the
British Labor Party in power,
began to belie the ideological
way of thinking as much as it
brought havoc to the doctrines
of the ideologies themselves.
The advent of the Bomb as the
decisive factor in international
affairs meant that the scientist
and the politician were now in
lull control of human destines.
Greater and greater prosperity
in the advanced industrial na-
tions was enough to show the
bankruptcy of traditional Marx-
ist dogma.

The crumbling of ideology,
said Howe, was for many "radi-
cals closely akin to the loss of
religious faith" in its profound
psychological i m p 1 i c a t i o ns.
Only a few were able to cling
to the values of Socialism as
the ideology disintegrated. And
insofar as Socialism remains
today a rational way of think-
ing, it is essentially composed
of these values. It is the goal
of Socialism, not the means for
achieving it (e.g. the abolition
of private property), which re-
mains significant.

Socialism is today a way of
looking at things, a point of
reference for solving immediate
problems. It is still founded on
the belief that an equitable dis-
tribution of national wealth is
a pre-requisite for any "Great
Society." It believes in social
planning to achieve this end. It
is firmly committed to the
greatest possible degree of pop-
ular participation in the formu-
lation of both industrial and
political policy. In short, it
still postulates the formula;
"From each according to his
ability, to each according to
his needs."

Yet as Howe remarked, so-
cial planning and the insurance
of material prosperity for all,
is not enough. His pessimistic
vision of the future is similar
to Huxley's Brave New World:
a bureaucratic, "benevolent"
authoritarianism, in which men
enjoy a "childlike freedom,"
and whose rulers are either
"members of a central commit-
tee or are corporation execu-
tives. "How is a Socialist to
eope with this new social revo-
lution? by attempting to give
the worker a sense that he is
more than just a cog in a vast,
impersonal economic machine.
The danger of a technologi-
cal age is that the worker will
become an automation. The
danger of automation is: what
will the automation do with his
spare time? These are among
the most important problems of
our age and one hopes that
Socialists will treat them as
such, and begin providing us
with answers and alternatives.
One regrets that Mr. Howe did
not spend more time discussing
them and giving us his views.

What Howe did say most
clearly is that the nostaglia
which young "radicals" feel
toward the thirties, although
understandable, is unproduc-
tive romanticism. Times have
changed, the old issues are
dead. Today's youth must find
its own cruses and if the old
certainty in the future is gone
forever, so, too, are many of
the old mistakes. One should
not be optimistic, but neither
should one bury one's head in
the sands of a soon-to-be-for-
gotten age.

Choral Union, Orchestra and Chorus

(Continued from Page 6)

had the foresight to provide the
texts for these pieces with the
programs.

Mass In C

After the intermission, the
Chorus and Chamber Orchestra
performed the massive Beeth-
oven Mass in C. Ellyn Burk and
Shirley Young were the soprano
and alto soloists. James Kurtz
and Daniel Gruen sang the
tenor and bass parts. As a
whole, the performance was
energetic and exciting with
plenty of drive and generally
excellent tempi.

Thfi sound of the chorus dur-
ing the Kyrie, as it was through-
out the concert, was solid and
full. The Gloria section was ap-
proached vigorously but was
not rushed and accordingly
came off quite well. The orches-
tra was excellent, not sounding
thin even in piano passages.

In the Credo, a lot of little
things could have been im-
proved. There were weak
fortes at "Et resurrexit" and
"Et expecto" and slightly too
fast tempi in the "judicare"
section, which caused several
dramatic moments to be under-
played, and in the "Amen" sec-
tion, which led to some sloppy
playing. The soloists, however,
were excellent for the most
part.

Tlie Sanctus was generally
very effectively done, particu-
larly the beautiful opening. The
only trouble was the lack of
sufficient subtle expression. I
will say more on this later. The
Benedictus was perhaps the
best done part. The soloists
were again excellent. The mar-
velous rhythms throughout the
section were strikingly played
and sung. The performance fell
down a little, however, at the
beginnig of the "Hosanna."
There was a feeling that Lucier
was holding back. It detracted
froin the crucial vigor and
liveliness of the section. He
fortunately recovered and com-
pleted the movement admira-
bly.

The last section, the Agnus
Dei, was somewhat disappoint-
ing. After a good opening, there
were occasional signs of weak-
ness in the orchestra, essentially
for the first time during the
performance. At several places
where the orchestra had a
series of rapidly repeated
chords, Mr. Lucier seemed
afraid to use heavy accents,
which took away from the
drive of the passages. There
often wasn't enough difference
between the piano and pianis-
simo sections. And then, Mr.
Lucier brought the Mass to a
rather inconclusive end by
playing the last note, coming

after two bars of essentially
held piano chords, a bit mud-
dily, as though a sharp, vig-
orous passage were about to
commence.

Praises Soloists

Overall the soloists turned in
very creditable jobs. Mr. Kurtz,
the tenor, was simply spectacu-
lar. His performance was all
the more incredible since he
was placed in the part only a
week before the concert. Mr.
Gruen, too, was excellent. Miss
Young, the alte, after a shaky
start in the ••miserere** section
of the Gloria, got better as the
work progressed and was ex-
cellent by the time she sang her
solo near the end of the Credo.
She deserves a great deal of
credit for doing a fine job in
spite of the fact that she had
been ill for several days right
up until the concert and was no
doubt not in peak form. Miss
Burk was generally good, al-
beit erratic. There were several
shaky entrances, and in the
"Christc" passage in the Kyrie.
solo, a very flat note and a
tendency to sing legato pass-
ages almost staccato.

Perhaps t^e best way of ex-
pressing what was to my mind
the biggest failing of the per-
formance is to mention the
playing of the solo pas.sages by
the professional clarinetist and
oboist, Arne Running and Don-

ald Leake. Mr. Running's play-
ing in the Agnus Dei, for ex-
ample, was breathtaking. And
it was only when I heard him
play, that it became clear to
me what had been missing. He
made the passages come alive.
He wove a beautiful musical
strand by subtle phrasing and
emphasis along with gentle
dynamic nuances. It was this
that had not been present in the
(M-chestra's playing and in the
chorus' singing. And to this
nvost of all do I attribute the
difference between this very
good performar>ce and a truly
great one.

Exciting Concert
All this has not been to say,
however, that it was not an
exciting, well -performed con-
cert. It was, and 1 am sure that
everyone enjoyed it greatly;
and, what is just as important,
the performers seemed to be
enjoying it too. This speaks
well for Mr. Lucier, for leader-
ship is as important in a con-
ductor musicianship, and to a
great degree, he possesses both.
But still more important is the
fact that we now have an
orchestra, and one capable of
very respectable performance
at that. 1 think we can look for-
ward to enjoying a good many
excellent concerts in the fu-
ture from the groups heard
Saturday night.

By PETE WEINER

The court Judprea will try to break into the win column tonig-ht as they face
MIT at 8:15 in the JFK Memorial Library Game. The varsity contest will be preceded
by a student-faculty intramural ^ame. Barry Zimmerman, averaging? 20 points per
game, Santo Cimino, averaging? 8 rebounds i)er game, newcomer Dave Jacobson, (.*o-
Capt. Richie Hymof f, averaging 16 points, and sophomore Steve Goldstein will probably
be the Judges starting five.

No Defense

The home opener against WPI
was a close game throughout
but the Judges were at the
short end, 69-64, after 40 min-
utes of sloppy basketball.

Steals by Richie Hymoff and
Barry Zimmerman in the open-
ing minute gave the Judges a
quick 5-0 lead. Pressing inces-
santly, Brandeis managed to
harass the WPI offense in the
early minutes. But the Judges
defense quickly fell away and
the Engineers gained the up-

jumper by Don Lutz.

The Engineers pulled out to
a 30-23 lead as Zimmerman and
Cimino stole the ball and
missed easy layups. Dave La-
Rue, 6-1 forward, and center
Bill Nims were very effective
from the sides as WPI held a

By RIC USLANER

It was a nip-and-tuck game Saturday nif^ht at the

Shapiro Athletic Center — the Judges kept nipping away at

the Bates lead, but the visitors had tucked away the

victory by half-time. The final score was 74-60 and the loss

was Brandeis' third of the season without a win.

The Judges held 6'8" Bates

center K j e 1 1 Rannelid to 7
points, but let Captain Seth
Cummings and freshman star
Howie Alexander roll up a
combined total of 36 pomts.
Kichie Hymoff and Barry Zim-
merman each tallied 18 poitits
for Brandeis while Ted Krzy-
nowek added another 16 to the
Bales total.

Three of the Judges' starting
five weren't around to help the
last minute spurts that Bran-
deis attempted to pull off. Dave
Jacobson Barry Zimmerman,
and Richie Hymoff all left the
game early. Jacobson and Hy-
moff fouled out and Zimmer-
man was ejected. Rannelid of
Bates also fouled out.

Second Quarter Quandry

Things were looking good
for the Judges throughout the
first quarter, but the Cum-
mings-Alexander duo of Bates
got hot and accounted for 18
points in the second quarter.
The Brandeis defense suffered
coordination problems and the
I offense just wasn't hitting. Of
1^1 the 21 points the Judges tal-
lied in the first half, 16 of them
came from Zimmerman and
Hymoff. The Bates team, which
often failed to capitalize on
Brandeis mistakes, had scored
only 35 points at the half. The
story of the game was that the
Bates team was less off the
mark than the Judges.

Work^ Play Raise Funds| Fre^^meAi to Vote Thursday for

Student Council Representatives

To Benefit Nine Cliarities

The annual charity week drive raised $2800 last
week in a series of activities beginning with dormitory
collections, moving through the auction and cabaret night,
and culminating with work day last Saturday.

The money raised from these student planned and
organized events will aid the Waltham Boys Club, the
American Civil Liberties*^

Union, CARE, the Eleanor
Roosevelt Cancer Foundation,
and the Foster Parents Plan.

Also chosen with these in a
student poll were the John
F. Kennedy Memorial Library,
the United Fund for Kentucky
Miners, the National Scholar-
ship Service and Fund for Ne-
gro Students, and the World
University Service.

The largest amount of money
came from the auction on
Thursday, where Dr. John
Roche persuaded students to
purchase $1000 worth of items
for charity. However, Charity
week chairman Mike Turan
noted that many students have
not yet paid for the items they
bought at the auction. He said
that these students should put
the money in an envelope to be
given to the clerk in the mail-
room.

On workday last Saturday,

students worked in retail stores
and gas stations in Waltham;
they also cleaned rooms on
campus and worked for faculty
meml>ers. The combined work-
day effort netted about $400.

The Kennedy Memorial Li-
brary benefitted from the
$151.42 collected at last Tues-
day's Brandeis-M.I.T. basket-
ball game, while the other
charities shared funds collected
at the other events of the week.
A student-faculty game and a
tug-of-war preceded the varsity
game.

Dormitory collections netted
$600, while Cabaret Night's
booths brought in another $375.

$250 was earned at Dessert
Night, when students bought
the sweets for 25 cents.

Security on Job;
Automobile Thief
Cut Off At Pass

Late Saturday night, when
all law-abiding people were
safely tucked in their beds, evil
stalked the campus of Brandeis
University. A 1955 Chevrolet,
belonging to one Michael Seltz,
parked securely in the North C
parking lot, was stolen. A 14-
year-old looking 22 year-old
was seized by an alert Security
guard at the Information booth
after he had b^en observed en-
tering the aforementioned car.
The thief unfortunately took
the long road out of Brandeis,
while the Security guard took
the short road and cut him off

tee, composed of fifteen mem-
bers divided equally among
students, faculty and adminis-
tration, to discuss the "topic of
the reorganization of the rule-
making procedures of the uni-
versity." The committee would
have power to make decisions
only on the basis of a concur-
rent majority — a majority of
each of the three groups in-
cluded.

The proposal, accepted by a
10-2 vote, was a form of com-
promise settled on by the Coun-
cil between original proposals
presented by Bert Foer and
President Steve Mora. Foer's
proposal was similar to the Ad
Committee's counter proposal
and would have established a
special committee, composed of
three members of the Ad Com-
mittee, three faculty members
elected by the faculty, and six
elected members of the student
body, to discuss anything in the
sphere of student interest and
to make recommendations to
the Ad Committee.

The main features of Mora's
proposal were that the new
committee proposed by the Ad
Committee meet jointly with
the Ad Committee, and that the
new committee have decision-
making power.

The compromise proposal,
which will be sent to Dean of
Students Kermit C. Morrissey,
settled the issue of decision-
making power by the concur-
rent majority formulation. The
proposed special committee
would address itself to the
problems of rule-making rather

vote, defeated a proposal which
called for compliance with the
Constitution in the form of a
freshman vote.

Article 6, Section 1, Part e
of the Constitution states that
'Two members elected from
the Freshman class to serve
from the time of their election
to the seating of the new Stu-
dent Council in February" will
be members of Council. Sec-
tion 2 of the By-laws states
that, "A special election, su-
pervised by the Elections Com-
mittee, shall be held immedi-
ately before the winter recess."

The original Freshman de-
mand for a pre-Christmas vote
came in the form of a petition
signed by most Freshmen. The
petition, which referred to the
Constitutional provision, was
presented to Student Council
President Steve Mora last Sun-
day.

Mora brought up the petition
at the Student Council meet-
ing Thursday. The council
split in its discussions and in
the final vote. The members
who urged a Freshman election
cited the clear Constitutional
provision. The rest of the
Council, while agreeing on the
Constitutional issue, cited oth-
er practical reasons why the
election should not be held.

The dissenters argued, among
other things, that since the
relevant section of the Consti-
tution had been disregarded In
the past, "tradition" had to be
considered; that one week was
not sufficient time to run a good
election and, as a result, the
quality of the elected officers
might be wanting; that the
term of office of the two new
members would be minimal;
that the real policy decisions
had already been made; and
that Freshmen were unfamiliar
with these policies.

The six members of the
Council who voted for the
Freshman election were Naomi
Reice, Bert Foer. Dave Gerstel,
Bill Moody, Richard Winkel-
stern, and Allen Zerkin. Those
voting against the proposal
were President Mora, Al Shar,
Frank Bloch, Vicki Hammer,

Bob Zuckerman, and Patricia
Paley. Ira Liebowitz abstained.
The vote was technically ille-
gal as Mora voted to create a
tie. The Constitution states
that the President shall vote
only to break a tie.

In a final vote the Council
voted to change the election
rules so that there must be a
minimum of five days between
the calling of an election and
the submission of names to the
Elections Committee.

The Student Board of Review
meeting discussed the Council
action, dismis.sed Council ob-
jections to the election, and
ordered the election to be held.
(See decision, p. 2.) In so do-
ing, SBR suspended the new
election rules. The opinion of
the Board emphasized the ob-
vious Constitutional require-
ment to hold the election.

Boston Executive
Underwrites New
Sports Building

A prominent Boston business
executive and philanthropist
has underwritten construction
of a sports center at Brandeis
University.

The $250,000 gift was re-
ceived from Joseph M. Lin.sey.
a Brandeis trustee, national
chairman of the University's
Development Campaign, and
national chairman of its Ath-
letic Association.

Chief feature of the Sports
Center will be a 75 by 45-foot
Olympic-sized swimming pool
which will broaden the athletic
program at the University and
enable Brandeis to participate
in intercollegiate swimming
competition.

Other facilities to be included
are squash and handball courts,
locker rooms and shower facili-
ties. Plans al.so call for a spec-
tator area of some 300 seats
near the swimming pool.

Tentative plans call for con-
struction to start in the Spring
of 1965 and to be completed at
the end of that year.

The Sports Center will be
connected by covered passage-
ways with the University's ath-
letic building. The new struc-
ture will be constructed ad-
jacent to this building on a six-
acre tract.

Mario Savio Evokes
Enthusiastic Response

Only four days after bein^ dramatically carried away
from a microphone at the Berkeley Greek Theatre, Mario
Savio, leader of the student rebellion at the University
of California, was given a microphone at Brandeis*
Schwartz Hall Friday evening — and was interrupted only
by applau.se.

Brandeis Finishes
Debate Tourney
With Top Honors

According to Saturday's Bos-*
ton Globe, Savio "sparked en-
thusiastic response" from both
Harvard and Brandeis audi-
ences. "The nation's leading
college rebel drew cheers from
Harvard and Brandeis students,
dieted hisses when he men-
tioned the enemies, and spread
the protest message before
jammed audiences," the paper
reported.

The dynamic student leader
al.so received tangible support
nt Brandeis. He was presented
with a petition of support
signed by nearly six hundred
Brandeis students and fuculty
members and cash donations
for the Free Speech Movement
totalling $100. "Now you can
go back to Clark Kerr and tell
him which side the Brandeis
community is on!" Brandeis
hosts told elated Free Speech
leaders.

Savio was brought to Bran-
deis by the Committee For An
Ideal Campus which arranged
the visit with the Boston chap-
ter of Students For a Democra-
tic Society. The forty-minute
program at Schwartz was spon-
sored by the Student Govern-
ment's Faculty Associates Com-
mittee.

The leader of the Berkeley
student rebellion found Bran-
deis to be not too unlike the
Berkeley Knowledge Factory.
Continuing the analogy. Savio
identified our "multi-man" as
Abram Sachar. our materialist
as Dean of Students Kermit
Morri.ssey, and its alienated un-
dergraduates as the Brandeis
student body. Of profes.sors. he
stated, Berkeley faculty "had

The Brandeis Debating Team
took home four tropliies from
its most recent tournament at
Tufts University.

Both the team of Tony Scari-
ano '68 and Allan Lichtman '67
and the team of Debby Lewis
'65 and Barry Morris '67 fin-
ished with a perfect record of
five wins and no defeats. This
earned Brandeis the trophy for
the top four man unit in the
tournament.

In addition, both teams quali-
fied for the final two rounds
which determine the top two
man team. However, since only
one team from each school is
allowed to participate in the
finals, the team of Lewis and
Morris was chosen because of
Debby's high points which
earned her the top speaker
award.

Tlie two defeated Brooklyn
College in the semi-finals and
Rutgers in the final round to
become the top two man team
in a field of 42. This earned
Brandeis both an additional
permanent trophy, and t h e
traveling trophy, wh'ch is
awarded to the top team each
year.

To

1 ) The editor of the Justice

2) The Director of Athletics,
Mr. Clin, Brandeis Univer-
sity, Waltham 54, Mass.

Dear Mr. Olin

and student body,
1 became very disconcerted
during a recent visit to Bran-
deis when I learned that Bran-
deis and/or the Athletic De-
partment had dropped track

ing and hard-working coach,
and it is a shame that his ef-
forts in building a small co-
hesive track team had to be
terminated. The factor of stu-
dent apathy does not pertain
here, for the boys enjoyed run-
ning and staying in shape re-
gardless of whether they won
or not, or whether the school
cared or not. It was a hard-
working, devoted, content
group of individuals.

The decision to drop track
was made during the pa.st Sum-
mer; therefore, the Athletic

ana cross-country foVthe school Department did not even give

under- those inter(\st(^d a chance. Even

"When asked why he believed students dnn*t generally cheat on
eiiams, he replied, 'because of their built-in inhibitions.*'*
— From an article in last week s Justice that included an inter-
view with Dean Morrissey,

yofir. 1 can't po.ssibly
stand why this was done. The
team's atliletes could not have
upset the school's academic
standing as .some maintain the
football team had done. The
beautiful quarter-mile track
was built several years ago,
and still seems to be in pretty
goofi condition. The campus
roads still seem to provide an
ade(|uate cross-country course.
Track ct)st the school practical-
ly nothing, except for Coach
Clyde Crawford's salary, and
the minimal expense involved
in the few road trips made.
Coach Crawford was an inspir-

if only a handful w«'re inter-
ested, why not give them a
chance to make use of the fine
facilities under the coach's su-
pervision. It's bad enough
Brandeis has a 12,000 aeai in-
tramural football stadium, but
should it also maintain a track

Results of the Problem

To this date, this lack of com-
menication has been a problem
which the administration totally
refuses to recognize. EtYorts by
both faculty and students to
solve this problem have been
met by a complete lack of un-
derstanding on tlie part of the
administration. The result has
been the increased alienation
of students from administra-
tion, and perhaps a similar
alienation of faculty from ad-
ministration.

In recent days, three at-
tempts to improve the com-
munications network at Bran-
deis have been completely rc-
bulU'd. The first was the re-
jection of the Student Council
proposal for a Tripartite gov-
ernment. Ill the place of this
prijposal a meaningless sub-
stitute was suggested w h i cli
would have differed little from
la-.t year's environment com-
mittee. The second was the de-
nial of a request by the Student
Council to senc. a delegation of
two Council memt)ers to the
open nu'elings of the Fellows
and Boar; I ot Trustee members
in New Y(»rk this month, in
order that the Council might
beci)me better informed about
the proljlems peculiar to this
group and in order tha< mutual
problems of both groups might
b(> di.scussed. A third elTort. by
the alumni executive board, to
arrange a meeting between the
President of the University,
members of the Board of Trus-
ti'cs. student leaders, faculty,
and alumni has al.io been side-
tracked. All of these events
should indicate not only a lack
of understanding of the prob-
lem. l)ut a refusal to acknowl-
edge that such a problem
exists.

It is my feeling that the
crises of recent years is the di-
rect result of this brealcdown
of communications. Althougli
there is little question that the
three major c a m p u s groups
have didering interests and
perspectives, nevertheless an
improved communications op-
eration might make an under-
standing of these prob lems
more likely, an accommodation
of conflicting interests possi-
ble.

Narrow Point of View

The breakdown in communi-
cations, is the cause of a deci-
sion-making process which at
times is divorced from a con-
nection with the total interest
and total view point of the
Brandeis community. This de-
cision-making process tends to
reflect an administrative point
of view to the total exclusion
of the viewpoints of Brandeis'
other two elements.

There is, I l^elieve, a logical
explanation for this. Brandeis
is a young school. In the begin-
ning it has needed strong, ag-
gresive leadership. Its most im-
portant goal has, of necessity,
been the collection of money
for Brandeis had to be built.
This has given Brandeis a pe-
culiar but neeessary type of
one man leadership. Moreover,
this leadership has succeeded
in miraculous fashion. How-
ever, this type of leadership,
with priority on the necessity
of collecting money, has made
it imposible over a period of

years for the president to be as
well informed as possible
about the changing aspects of
the Brandeis campus. This lack
of information has been one of
the main causes of decision-
making w h i c Ii has failed to
consider the interests of the
living Brandeis community,
which includes the student
body and the faculty.

A this time, Brandeis has. at
the very least, developed some
roots. It is a young institution.
As such its priorities must
change. Its concern with the
wishes of faculty and students
must increase. It sliould be re-
membered that tlie administra-
tion exists for the students and
the faculty, and not tiie revree
the faculty, and not the re-
verse.

Remedies

In order to eirect these
changes there are several steps
which might be taken. The first
step would be the increased
ability of students and faculty
to be lepresenled when deci-
sions arc made concerning the
interests of stud e n I s and dr
faculty. The .second step would
be an improved undeistanding
C)f the interests of these two
groups by those persons with
the legal respo.isibility for eov-
erning this University. This
might be expedited by the
creation of a new positi()n (»f
University Chancellor. This
man could concern himself
solely with problems directly
concerning the Brandeis cam-
pus as a living community. By
not being directly concerned
with somes of the great finan-
cial problems of tiic University,
he would be able to devote his
entire tome to working witii
the members of the Brandeis
community, and understanding
the problems of the people who
li\'e and work here.

Though these two steps are
in no .sense panaceas, they
would reflect accurately the
changed (and changing) his-
torical position of Brandeis as
an institution. They would help
to solve some of the problems
which, in the largest sense, are
problems of growth, and are
problems of a University chang-
ing so fast, that its problems
are difficult to recognize, let
alone to analyze and solve.

Charity Week

(Continued from Front Page)

150 students hosting 75 or-
phans brought to campus for a
day of parties and campus ex-
ploration. The boys and girls,
all between the ages of 6 and
11, were introduced to the
campus radio-station and the
gym, and enjoyed a show pre-
sented by friends of their hosts.
Later, they ate dinner at the
campus dining-rooms. All ex-
penses for the day's activities
were paid by the Brandeis ad-
ministration.

V SL^ction lb. prescribing legis-

any contrary provision in Rob-

words, is required, under the
Constitution and By-Laws, to

This Court is being asked to

Where a legislative body vio-
lates procedural rules which
it establishes for enacting leg-
islation, courts consistently re-
fu.se to review the procedure
followed. (The United States
Senate and Hou.se of Repre-

rules of procedure.) The pro

that we do not have to leach

everyone to read:
Perhaps in the prcscFit dis-
pensation we should be as
well ofV if it were not socially
acceptable for large numbers
not to read. It would be
harder to regiment people if
they were not 'well inform-
ed.' . . . With less literacy,
there would be nu»re 'folk
culture' . . . Serious letters
could benefit if societ.v were
not swamped by trash, lies,
and bland \er)jiage.

This may be true, Init it
would seem that it is extremely
helpful to people to be able to
read the la'oels on soup cans
and tlie directions on street
signs, even if nothing else.

Other suggestions of CfOod-
man's seem more tenable: he
suggests the creation of smal-
ler, more informal schools, ed-
ucational programs more closc-
l.v related to the community,
and "work farm" schools to
replace the present high
schools.

For college. Goodman advo-
cates the abolition of grades —
a proposal wliich now seems
too sensible to be ignored.
Goodman also slates that high
school graduates should have
to work or travel for two years
before entering college. This
proposal sounds attractive, but
we are led back to the same
old dilemma. Where could the
adolescents work? High .school
graduates are probably not in-
capable of doing work: there
are simply not enough jobs in
the economy to accommodate
them. This problem seems to
be at the heart of what Good-
man and Musgrove are saying.
There are not enough jobs, but
so long as employment is the
paramount virtue in the soci-
ety, adolescents will be kept in
school. If "creative leisure"

in the Constitution and By-
Laws as justifying judicial re-
view of procedure whenever
any individual or group, with
an interest in a dhVerent deci-
sion by Council, questions the
way in which the decision was
reached. The exercise of such
a review power would leave in
doubt the legality of all legis-
lative action. .

n

Mr. Evans' argument, that
Article VI Section 1 of the Con-
stitution and Article 1 Section
2 of the By-Laws provide for
an election for freshman class
representatives, is fully sup-
ported by the unequivocal
wording the those provisions.
Article VI Section 1 of the Con-
stitution states, "The Student
Council shall be composed of
the following members . . .

Two members elected from the
Freshman class to serve from
the time of tlieir election to the
seating of the new Student
Council . . ." Article 1 Section
2 of the By-I^aws provides, ''A
special freshman election, su-
pervised by the Elections Com-
mittee, siiall be held immedi-
ately before the winter recess."
Petitioners, members of the
fresliman class, .seek represen-
tation for their class on Student
Council. Having a direct in-
terest in the case, petitioners
have standing to institute a
cause of action in this court.
Student Council's refusal to
authorize an election, clearly
required under the Constitu-
tion and By-Laws, permits this
Caurt to provide a remedy. A
court order, to require the
Elections Committee to hold an
election, as provided undv-r the
Constitution and By-Laws, is
the only form of relief open to
petitioners^. .

The Constitution and
By-Laws take precedence over
ru les passed by Council.
The six days, which are avail-
able between now and the final
election, while shorter than
desirable, will not create a
hardship suHicient to justify
extending the dale provided m
tlie By-Laws. Holding the elec-
tion after the vacation would
shorten the already very sliort
terms of the future freshmaa
representatives and further de-
lay the date when the fresh-
man class would be represent-
ed on Council.

was an important value (as
Goodman thinks it should be)
the schools could break from
their circular dilcirima by
deemphasizing the importance
of future employment.

Thus. Goodman and Mus-
grove have provided a critique
of education which may, in
time, bring about reforms in
the school system. They clearly
and forcefully articulate the
need for society to abolish its
bias towards uncreative and un-
necessary employment. If this
value change is made, the
schools would certainly follow
suit and change for the better.

Students in Hamilton, unable

with bull sessions, parties, and
panty raids. The freshmen men
claimed that the raids on Ren-

About fifteen minutes after his

The next day, the faculty sen-

Apparently most of the pro-

regents dictum that, to quote
Savio, "the university has the
right to regulate the content of
speech when speech advocates
unlawful, off-campus actions."
How much injustice is neces-
sary, one wonders, for a faculty
to take such a strong .stand
against the administration? One
faction of students at Brandeis
thinks that the faculty has been
all too reticent and timid in op-
posing the administration. Do

In the ensuing dialogue Mrs.
Hicks insisted that a school is
not inferior because it is racial-
ly distinct. She cited the Quin-
ey school which is largely
Cfhinese and gets a high per-
centage of children into Boston

ently pointed to the special
position of the Negro in this
culture and the resulting need

asked about the possibility of
spreading out the disciplinary
problem, she replied that the
School Committee was solving
the problem at its source by
education.

If one thing had been made
clear in the preceding dialogue
it was that Mrs. Hicks was
totally ignorant of what the
source is. She addec* that the
main problem in Roxbury is the

The evening continued in
this fashion. She was asked if
a racially separate school was
bad as such. She replied that it
wa.«;n't. (I thought that issue
had been decided in 1954.) She
defined integration as "all peo-
ple living together." When
questioned specifically about
the school system, she said: (al-
most verbatim) integration is
the opposite of segregation; we
don't have segregation: there-
fore we have integration. To
make sure that no rationaliza-
tions would feel left out, she
added that it is not segrega-

Murray Sums It Up

It had been a rather enjoy-
able evening, laughing at bad
logic and being fascinated by
the confrontation between Mrs.
Hicks and the civil rights work-
ers; but I am reminded of a
comment made by Murray
Kempton upon a confrontation
between Linus Pauling and the
Senate Internal Security Sub-
committee. "The audience at
the hearings was generally hos-
tile and derisive to the Sub-
committee; there were ripples
of laughter at each inanity of
Sourwine's, at each stroke of
Dr. Pauling's. It was, of course,
the happy laughter of superior
beings in the presence of fools

(Continued from Page 4)

In many ways the Univer-
sity of California at Berkeley is
an example of such a future.
Here 27,00 students are reduced
to punched codes, then sorted,
sifted, ordered, and reordered
by operators and mnehines that
never see them. The quality of
instruction is high, but due to
the large size of classes, few
students ever become acquaint-
ed with their insiruclors. When
Clark Kerr calls it a factory
he is not speaking figuratively.

Negotiations Become a
Charade

In view of these conditions —
the prevailing ethos of admin-
istrators, the emasculated ini-
tiative of the faculty, and the
frustration of the students — it
is not surprising that negotia-
tions between these groups be-
came a charade. Living by the
creed, "don't say anything that
might be controversial," the
bureaucrats could not conceive
that anyone could sincerely de-
sire freedom of expression. In
the face of this, the student
could only feel that negotiation
was hopeless. The faculty, in
turn, felt ill-used by both sides.

By the end of November, stu-
dents again were violating uni-
versity regulations and further
discussions of the issues were
cancelled. The administration
then prepared a Machiavellian
move of apparently compromis-
ing in favor of student demands
while retaining the option of
intimidating civil rights work-
ers. At a meeting of the Board
of Regents, the ruler governing
political activities on campus
were liberalized, but the ad-
ministration insisted on their
dubious right to hold campus
speakers personally responsible
for unlawful acts such as sit-
ins that might occur.

Following this, the adminis-
tration in an apparently cyni-
cal, but possibly just incom-
petent move, decided to press
charges against the recently
reinstated student leaders of
the demonstrations of October
1 and 2. As one faculty member
put it, "the students under-
standably felt tricked." On De-
cember 2, 1,500 students sat-in
the administration building,
Sproul Hall, in an attempt to
bring the apparently blind
workings of the bureaucracy to
a halt and reinstitute some form
of rational negotiations.

Demonstrations Orderly

The demonstration was order-
ly and non-violent. Some stu-
dents studied, some watched
movies, and some sang folk
.songs with Joan Baez. A "free-
dom school*' was held by teach-
ing a.ssistants and instructors on
one floor and a special Chanu-
kah service was held in the
main lobby. At 2 a.m.. E>ecem-
ber 3rd. Governor Brown called
these activities "anarchy" and

ordered police to surround the
building an<. make anests.
From that time until late after-
noon, Sproul Hall echoed to the
cries of passive students being
dragged down stairs.

In the students' eyes the bur-
geoning bureaucracy of the ad-
ministration has been shown to
not only have clay feet, but
lead backsides and heads of
brick. The myth of their omni-
potent wisdom and justice has
been shattered. Their view of
dissent as psychopathic, of so-
cial protest as criminal, of pro-
fessors as humble servants and
students as simple-minded chil-
dren stands repudiated by the
reality of the present situation.

The situation is serious.
Many members of the faculty
and student body are preparing
to leave for other academic
environments. The institutions
cannot survive these events
without lasting scars. Much has
bc^n sacrificed. Perhaps meji
like Clark Kerr will regard
these sacrifices as irrational, ir-
relevant, and unimportant in the
face of the inexorable 'wave of
the future." Let us hope, in-
.stead that these sacrifices, both
personal and collective, may be
the beginning of a different
kind of future where organiza-
tions will be stibject to men
and men will be subject to
nothing but their own know-
ledge, love, and creative en-
deavors.

As for the immediate future,
.students .say they shall have
freedom of speech and political
activitiy on the campus in spite
of police interference, admin-
istration antagonism, or politi-
cal intimidation.

Rather than end here, the ac-

car just as a crane with a huge
claw picks the car up and de-
posits it in a monster scrap
metal press. Several impres-
sive seconds later he drives by
in a pick-up truck and another
crane with an electro-magnet
deposits the car, now in the

Sean Connery leaves one in
no more doubt as to his acting
ability than in any of the other
Bond movies, ."^o if you have
seen him l>efore, you know
what to expect. Some of
Bond's manner as it comes
across in the original books by
Ian Fleming is unavoidably
lost. There is no time on the
screen for Bond to be as com-
pletely suave about ordci ing
his food as he is in print. All
we get here is a jerky, out of
place sentence like "Don't for-
get to rinse out the glass with
vermouth."

This movie is recommended
to all Bond fans who will like
it even though they will realize
that nowhere does the success
of the plot depend on Bond's
resourcefulness but on a vari-
ety of gadgets and on Bond's
ability to make even the most
resistant of women.

December 15, 1944

' On the Judges Bench

Hoop-La

Pete

The Judges have yet to win a ball game as they
stand 0-6 at press time. They're a much better ball club
than the record shows. Against Rhodey, WPl and MIT
the Judges held the lead in the second half. But the Blue
and White could not hold on to win.

The potential is there. The Judges can score. They
proved that against Harvard. They can run and they can
ball-hawk. But they haven't been able to win.

Defense is the problem. Dave Jacobson and Santo
Cimino can't consistently outrebound taller and stronger
opponents. The Judges need more height and strength —
a perennial problem.

The way for the Blue and White to win is to use their
potential to its limits. Press, run, fast break, ball-hawk —
this has to be the Judges formula for victory. Brandeis
must use its s[)eed, skill and aggressiveness to comi>ensate
for lack of height.

Richie Hymoff, Steve Goldstein, Richie Epstein and
Eric Epstein are all capable of harassing the opposition
and ball-hawking. Brandeis should employ a half-court
press and capitalize on steals and bad passes. The Judges
should try to fast break more often. If they show the
hustle and aggressiveness they are capable of, they will
win.

The offense is no problem. Barry Zimmerman has one
of the better shots in the Boston area and rates with John
Austin of B.C. and Randy Cross of Boston University.
Richie Hymoff can drive and score against taller men.
Dave Jacobson proved he could play college basketball
against Harvard. He has the potential to be a star.

Jeff Schwamm has now broken into the starting line-
up. He is a good playmaker and can shoot as well as re-
bound. Jack Rovner, the other freshman, has been very
effective in his limited appearances. The Epstein boys,
Richie and Eric, and Steve Goldstein have the s|)eed and
skill, if not the scoring ability, to keep the Judges defense
tight and the offense moving.

The makings of a winning basketball team are here.

The Blue and White open in January against Clark. Let's

see the Judges win, and win big. against the Clarkies.

An interesting thing happened on the way to the gym
last Thursday. The Women's Basketball Team, better
known as the Judgettes, had taken a strong 2-0 lead over
Burdette in the squads' opening game. Suddenly, as Co-
Capt. Pat Rosenthal drove around one of Burdette's 5-7
blond forwards, it went dark. Either fate or the gods were
against the Judgettes as the game, Brandeis' first hoop

victory in-the-making, was called on account of darkness.

, The Brandeis fencing team stands 2-2 after scoring a
.15-12 victory over Norwich Saturday. The Judges had
defeated Holy Cross, 19-8, last Wednesday. Sabremen
Richie Cohen, Dan Shamos and Neil Barnett all made
good showings. Ei)eeman John Kalish and foilman Dick
Steinberg also were very effective in the fencers* two
victories. • ♦ ♦

Steve Heller, the Judges* regular right forward, will
be out indefinitely. Steve, a 6-2 junior, has been bothered
by his hands and will undergo tests to determine his
malady. His loss will be hard-felt by the floundering hoop-
sters.

Joe Schuldiner, our wrestling manager, came off the
bench Friday afternoon to pin Rod Kanehl of Rhode
Island College in the unlimited weight class and give the
Judges a 21-13 victory for the rastlers' first victory.
Capt. Bob Lerman pinned his opponent, Joe DeMuro de-
cisioned his man. Norm Wilson pinned his man in the
meet's best match, Roger Gottleib won a decision and
Schuldiner's victory clinched it for the Judges.

MIT Tops Judges, 58-56,
On Mazola's Jump Shot

By RIC USLANER

The court Judges were behind only four times Tuesday night in their annual
meeting with MIT at the Shapiro Athletic Center. One of those instances came at the
end of the game which the Engineers from Cambridge managed to win by a 58-56
score.

The other three occurred
early in the first half and by
half-time the Judges seemed
to be picking up the momen-
tum which they hoped would
carry them to their first victory
of the young season. Barry
Zimmerman had scored 17
points in the first half and the
Brandeis defense was tighter
than it had been to date. There
was a feeling of victory in the
air, but the Judges were, in the
end, to go down to their fourth
straight defeat.

Zimmerman led the Brandeis
scorers with 24 points; Santo
Cimino added another 12 to the
Judges* total. The MIT high
scorers were Alexander Wil-
son with 16. Frank Yin with
12. and Bob Grady with 11. In
addition, the Judges gave their
best showing of the year from
the free throw line, missing
only 1 out of 11 foul shots. The
Judges played without the aid
of starter Steve Heller, who is
out with an injury.

The first half amounted to a
"shot-for-shot" game. The
Judges weren't able to hold on
to any substantial lead they
gained, but neither were the
Engineers able to overtake the
Judges when their spurts
gained momentum.

A five-point Brandeis lead
at the beginning of the third
quarter vanished as Grady and
John Mazola pounded out sev-
eral quick MIT goals. The lead

was restored, but by the time
the quarter was drawing to a
close, the Engineers had once
again tied the score. Brandeis
led by two going into the final
quarter.

The Brandeis spread see-
sawed between two and four
points through most of the final
quarter despite a concerted
MIT press. The Judges' shoot-
ing was off, but fine defensive
maneuvers by Zimmerman,
Cimino, and freshman Jack
Rovner kept the Engineers
from gaining on them.

With 40 seconds left Mazola
of MIT tied the score at 56-56.

The Judges were unable to
score and Mazola scored on a
jump shot with just two sec-
onds left in the game. Bran-
deis regained possession of the
ball, but as Hymoff threw the
ball downcourt, it hit a wire on
the gym roof and went out of
bounds. MIT took possession
and won the game.

ball and passed into Jacobson
for a quick two points. Har-
vard broke into the game with
two free throws by big Barry
Williams. Keithe Sedlacek hit
with a jumper to put the Crim-
son ahead and they never re-
linquished the lead.

The Crimson used their
height advantage effectively to
outrebound Brandeis 55 to 36.
High scorers for the Cantabs
were Sedlacek with 22, 6-4
John Scott with 17 and All-Ivy
center Merle McClung with 13.
Williams hit for 10 points and
10 rebounds and soph Gene
Dressier scored nine.

The statistics tell the story
of the game. The Crimson hit
44 of 80 attempts from the field
for 55%. Brandeis was 29 for
55 for 46% The Blue and
White were 25 for 38 from the
free throw line to Harvard's 13
for 22.

Defense was the problem (as
usual). Harvard averaged 6-2
to the Judges' six-feet-even per
man. The difference enabled
the home team to control the
boards and score at will.

Incidentally, the Brandeij
freshmen were crushed by a
77-point margin as the Har-
vard frosh romped, 116-39. It
was a rather pathetic affair

Sachar Meets Students;
Discusses Ford Grant

President Abram L. Sachar spoke Friday to a group
of about thirty student leaders on the subject of the Ford
Foundation grant. This was the second meeting held to
establish closer communication between the student body
and the President. The meetings also give students a
chance to ask questions concerning University policy.

Ford* —

The Ford Foundation presented a second $6 million grant to Brandeis on Decem-
ber 17, 1964, for use in its "over-all academic development." Brandeis was one of five
universities to be so honored with the second grant.

President Abram L. Sachar announced that the money would primarily be used
to encourage endowments for faculty chairs, as well as fellowships and scholarships.
Endowments for a chair involve the donation of three-fourths of the total cost by the
donor with the additional one-'l' — •

program since it began in Sep-
tember, 1960. Including the re-
cent grants, the Foundation has
awarded a total of $218.5 mil-
lion. With the addition of
matching funds, the funds
available to higher education
total $775 million.

President Sachar commented,
"The East is an area of aca-
demic excellence where only
the best is appreciated. Here
we are — a teenager among the
real University giants — and
we had better be good, and stay
good, to warrant going steady
with the best. It means a great
deal to have the Ford Founda-
tion refer to Brandeis as one
of the national centers of out-
standing scholarship, teaching
and service to society. Every
University has pressing needs
for academic endowments to
support faculty salaries."

"It is research who sits in the
parlor and entertains the visit-
ing dignitaries. Too often,
teaching is relegated to the de-
tail that takes place below
stairs and in the scullery.
Henry Adams sounded the bell
when he wrote 'a teacher af
fects eternity; he can never tell
where his influence stops.' "

quarter to be added from the
Ford funds.

Brandeis must raise $18 mil-
lion in three years to earn the
new grant, which was awarded
under the Foundation's Special
Program in Education. Brandeis
received a first $6 million grant
in December, 1962, the terms
of earning the grant being the
same. However, since the funds
were raised in 18 months, the
University was allowed by Ford
to apply for the present grant.

Also receiving second grants
with Brandeis were the Uni-
versity of Southern California

and Brown University. Henry
T. Heald, president of the Ford
Foundation, said that these
three universities "had demon-
strated that with the support of
strong educational leadership
and imagination, they could
marshal the financial support
vital to meet the high goals
they have set for themselves."
Johns Hopkins University and
the University of Notre Dame
previously received second
Ford grants.

Fifty-seven institutions of
higher learning have received
grants under the Ford special

New Rules Formulated
For Leaves of Absence

A new policy affecting leaves of absence for under-
graduates has been in effect since June, ,1964. Under the
new plan, only upperclassmen of good standing may take
leaves.

Under the old rules, applications for a leave and
applications to return at the end of the leave had to be
reviewed by the Administrative* —

In talking about the

grant, Dr. Sachar spoke about
some of the aims which the
founders had in mind when
they set out to build the Uni-
versity. There already existed,
he said, *'many schools whose
students and faculty we wanted
to duplicate. In order to be
able to stay in that kind of a
league, we needed everything
at once. People got the impres-
sion we were mad about build-
ing "p^r se. But we couldn't
wait. We had to do it all at
once."

The first Ford grant went
mostly for "sewers and roads."
The first grant was also used
to pay off outstanding bills. Dr.
Sachar candidly noted that
"we used to be very slow pay-
ers. The Ford grant made it
possible to pay off many bills
and now we discount all our
bills."

Dr. Sachar indicated that his
greatest pleasure in the Ford
grants lay in the fact that they
made it possible for him to "get
off the mendicant's platform."
He indicated that his main in-
terest in the field of fund-rais-
ing at this point was to estab-
lish a major endowment fund,
"like Harvard has." But, he
noted jokingly, "we don't ex-
pect to catch up with Harvard
for at least another two years."
( Harvard's endowment fund
presently pays a yearly inter-
est of about $45 million).

Most of the Ford grant, which

must be matched three to
one by outside funds, will be
used to endow chairs for fac-
ulty members. It will hopefully
relieve the University Presi-
dent of the "indignity of beg-
ging from year to year for
faculty salaries."

Dr. Sachar said that it is much
easier to get money for build-
ings than for endowments, be-
cause the building provides a
"wonderful immortality" for
the donor. "One doesn't put a
plaque on the student who car-
ries a scholarship," he said, to
illustrate the fact that endow-
ments are more difficult to at-
tract because they lack visi-
bility.

The renowned fund-raising
ability of the President was
demonstrated by the announce-
ment that the University al-
ready had received funds for
five endowed chairs since the
announcement of the second
grant. The cost of an endowed
chair is between $250,000 and
$400,000. The chairs already
endowed are chairs in sculp-
ture, fine arts, (an artist in resi-
dence program), and two chairs
for which the fields have not
yet been designated.

Dr. Sachar made the an-
nouncement that his aim is to
get endowed chairs for all ten-
ured faculty members (all full
professors and most associate
professors).

Committee of the Faculty. Be
yond a statement of intention
to return at a specific time,
there was little difference be-
tween a leave and a withdraw-
al from the University.

Under the new rules, how-
ever, a student in good stand-
ing merely notifies the Com-
mittee of his intent to take a
leave and later of his intent to
return. He does not have to
reapply for admission.

These rules do not cover stu-
dents who are not in good
standing (those on probation
or warning) because leaves of
absence are considered a privi-
lege for them. Dean Sgan said
that the Committee wants to
be able to control the readmis-
sion of those not in good stand-
ing. When such a student wants
to return, he must convince the
Committee that he is ready to
do passing work. Applications
to withdraw with intention of
returning by those on proba-
tion are being treated in the
same way as applications to
withdraw permanently.

Another reason for the new
rule is that it enables the Com-
mittee to keep track of students
who are on leave, why they are,
and where. The change in rules
was prompted by a report by
the Committee on people who
leave the University, which was
conducted at the request of the
Justice.

Sgan added that freshmen
will not be permitted to take
leaves of absence because they
lack experience in college life.

the service of intoxicating
beverages at University func-

expenses were too high to justi-
fy this practice. There were
also many complaints from peo-
ple connected with the Univer-
sity about the illegal service of
drinks to minors.

Mrs. Schroeder, in consulta-

The Year of Our Ford

We are very much impressed with the second six-
million dollar KHint offered Brandeis by the Ford Founda-
tion, and by the comments of the Foundation that accom-
panied it. A Ford grant, no strings attached, represents a
significant and meaningful recognition of the educational
potential of a university; a second grant of the same kind
is perhaps the highest compliment the Foundation can
offer. Congratulations are definitely in order, and we
offer ours enthusiastically.

With funds of this magnitude available, Brandeis has

gained a degree of freedom it never had in the past.

* » «

President Sachar has announced that the University
will use the money primarily to encourage endowments for
faculty chairs, fellowships, and scholarships. This is an
excellent idea; it is also one that leaves considerable lee-
way for the adoption of programs within these bounds
that are more imaginative than many of those tried here
in the past. For example:

1) Several areas of study are sadly neglected .'^t
Brandeis; some are altogether absent. Dr. Sachar pointed
out in his message in this year's Student Handbook, that
we are ''growing into adult life in the midst of sweeping
and dramatic change, in education, in science, in social
and political conditions." Much of this sweeping change is
taking place in what we have come to consider the non-
western world. Strangely, Brandeis offers no courses in
non-Western languages, with the exception of Russian and
a few Semitic languages.

The new funds could be used to improve matters.

2) Another area of study that is almost completely
ignored is that of the religious practices of the non-
Western world. The study of western religions, other than
Judaism is treated in a similar manner.

3) The recently-announced ai.d still-unstructured pro-
gram in the study of "human rights" is a step in the right
direction. The present woidd be the appropriate time to
revive a variant of the Lasker Fellowship program, dis-
continued in the fall of 1963. As it existed in the past,
Lasker Fellows were men and women working profession-
ally in the field of civil rights; included were newspaper-
men, lawyers, civil rights groups leaders, and others. The
Felhjws attended Brandeis one semester, taking a variety
of courses. Our suggestion is that the program be revived,
with different sjK)nsorship if necessary, with this change:
the study load of the Fellows be reduced so that each may
teach one course in the area in which he is qualified.

4) S(>mething a little different: money could be set
aside for use in scholarships earmarked for students with
low college board scores ami mediocre high-school grades
who indicate in some other way their high potential.
Freshmen statistics of recent years indicate that this is
not done here with any frequency.

5) An October issue of The Justice included an article
about thcABCD Summer Project held on the Brandeis campus.
The author ol the article pointed out that the major flaw of the
program was the lack of a follow-up. The beneficial effect"^^ of
the program could easily be dissipated in the months after the
summer. A follow-up program would be very worthwhile.

We believe that all of these suggestions, and other similar
innovations are definitely worth the investment. Any number
of them are now well within the University's range. The ques-
tion is: when will Brandeis begin to use the funds available

imaginatively and productively?

* * •

Money, fortunately, won't buy everything. Courage is one
priceless commodity notably absent at Brandeis. This Univer-
sity could use, for example:

1) The courage to make every exception from customary
practice to retain members of the academic community who
represent the pinnacle of the educational enterprise (we refer,
of course, to Dr. Marcuse, but also to other fine minds who
have left under adverse circumstances).

Such a person's contribution to higher education will be
significant long after the recent Ford Foundation granl has
been forgotten by everyone — except those to whom the gather-
ing of funds is more important than the spreading of knowledge.

2) The courage to embark on a long-overdue curricular
reform. If Brandeis students are too busy with their courses to
spend any time thinking, part of the fault lies with the five-
course load. Yes, the General Education requirements would
have to be lessened if the five-course load were to be reduced
to a four-course load, but for the advantage of making it
easier for students to take their learing seriously, the fight is
well- worthwhile.

3)The courage to realize that a person's college-age years
represent a period of .social and emotional as well as of intel-
lectual growth, and the courage to support this growth, rather
than discouraging or ignoring it.

The Justice's ship sails (»n; new editors will soon be ix)ntificating in these
columns, while the old see themselves figuratively relegated to dusty back-issue
shelves. I wish our succesors luck, and feel that they will need a good deal of it.

of the Brandeis student community ; during the past five months, however, a notice-

Tlii'lladirallHiilillf'

On December 5, Sunday, I
had the privilege, if it can be
called that, of attending the
charity auction held in Kutz.
It was jammed full; there were
hundreds of people there. I
suppose it must have reminded
me of the crowds which gath-
er at the cages of zoos to poke
fun at the various animals try-
ing to amuse themselves in
their cages, some struggling to
get free.

Laughter came easily for the
buyers; the auctioneer found
little trouble in having fun at
the expense of the poor. Here
is one example of what went
on (the quotations, of course,
are not exact). "Here we have

Miss X who will perform some
special service for you (mild
laughter in the audience)."
"What will you give for her
services?" (Some one shouted
ten cents.) "Five dollars,"
shouted an audience member.
"Do I hear six?" asked the
auctioneer. "Six dollars," came
the response. "Who will say
seven?" "Seven dollars," an-
other shouted. And so it went
on. At nine or ten dollars, Miss
X was sold. "She will empty
out your wastebasket," said
the auctioneer.

A Question of Spirit

I wonder if anyone in that
huge crowd had bothered to
ask themselves about the
causes of the need for charity.
One of them is the inability
of our society to care for those
people who cannot provide for
themselves: the old, the dis-
abled, the homeless. I am not
objecting to the fact that
money was donated to those
who needed it. I am objecting
to the spirit in which it was
done. It seems as if one week
each year is set aside for the
transformation of the middle
class into virtuous saints, or at
least good Boy Scouts.

Belief in the idea of charity
implies either or both of the
following: That its real causes
are being overlooked, or that

its causes are recognized and
not taken seriously. Perhaps it
is believed that poverty is a
problem whose magnitude is
small enough to allow for solu-
tion through charity. I could
not imagine that anyone pos-
sessing the use of rational fac-
ulties could hold this position.
If it is not held, there is cer-
tainly a huge discrepancy be-
tween observation and moral
judgments. And if the latter
are not lacking, which I think
they are, there is a discrepancy
between thought and action.

"Padded Environment"

Perhaps the most lamentable
fact is that most Brandeisians
seem to care very little for the
needs of those around them.
The campus has been labeled
by many as a "padded environ-
ment." Indeed, the outside
world does seem a bit strange
when one leaves the campus
for Boston or Cambridge This
does not, however, call for the
repudiation of this "other
world." It is no surprise that
we hear the cry, even from
academics that we are becom-
ing divorced from real prob-
lems. I think that Jules Feiffer,
when he .«n3oke here, could quite
rightly say that the real threat
to society came not from the
right or left, but from the "rad-
ical middle."

Editorial

The Presi(dent Meets the Sfu(Jents

Dr. Sachar's meeting with the "student
leaders" Friday demonstrated once again
how sadly out-of-touch the President is
with the undergraduate community. The
lack of rapport became exceptionally evi-
dent during the brief question-and-answer
period he granted after his oi>ening re-
marks.

In response to a series of questions con-
cerning faculty-administration relations,
Dr. Sachar rather angrily replied that it is
not in the compass of the students to care
about such things.

Repeatedly using the unfortunate phrase
"you should," he informed the gathering of
exactly what things in the University
should interest them: "getting a good edu-
cation," "having good professors," etc.

The "gulf between the generations" will
certainly not be bridged by this type of
rhetoric; no one, not even Dr. Sachar, can
assume enough knowledge about the
thought processes of "these youngsters"
(as he would say) to tell them what they
should or should not be interested in.

Unhappily for the President, many stu-
dents here are almost as concerned with

the environment in which they must live
for four years as they are with their aca-
demic life; in fact, they equate their total
growth, in a sense, both with the educa-
tional and the social atmosphere of the
University.

The students were trying to say this on
Friday, in as respectful a way as possible,
by suggesting that a more comprehensive
view of the University might be achieved
if the faculty members on the Administra-
tive Committee were elected by the faculty
instead of appointed by the administration,
rhe inference, of course, goes deeper than
this; it is hoped that students as well as
faculty may some day have some small say
in making decisions concerning their own
environment.

The President's reaction was, sadly but

not unexpectedly, negative to the extreme.

At times the students' suggestions, most of

which were as mild as the weather during

spring hi-jinks" visibly rattled Dr. Sachar.

An onlooker could only wonder how such
a widely-traveled man could be so many
worlds apart from the people inhabiting the
universe he himself has created.

introductory courses have 100
or more people in them? What
are the effects of the non-real-
ization of this goal? What are
the implications?

The Silent Generation

This book deals mainly with
the effects, in the years 1958-
1962. of the ineffectual at-
tempts to attain this goal. These
were the years of the "silent
generation."

These were the years when
many great changes in the
world were ripping down yes-
terday and struggling to build
tomorrow. During these years
the college students, by and
large, said nothing, did noth-
ing, so consequently, they must
have thought nothing. Why did
this inactivity happen in, of all
places, the institutions specif-
ically designed by man to
". . . reflect on his beliefs and
criticize his pre-suppositions."

Mrs. Raushenbush argues ba-
sic^illy two reasons for this dis-
interest. One. that the educa-
tion received is not shared by
the teacher and student, that
there is no meaningful ex-
change of ideas, and two, that
the size of classes has made it
impossible for the "average"
student to become interested.
It is only the "gifted" student
who can command the teach-
er's attention.

"Students wish to be taken
seriously, and their response
when they are, is deep and
lasting."

Students don't want, or need,
'•psychiatric baby sitters," (as
I have heard one Brandeis Eng-
lish professor call them). They
want teachers who experience
the educational process with
the students.

Where can this learning take
place? In a freshman introduc-
tory class of 100? In a section
(of the same freshman couse)
with a pre-occupied graduate
student-teacher?

The Remedy

To this situation Mrs. Rausii-
enbush would suggest three im-
mediate steps: 1) decentraliza-
tion; 2) seminars and inde-
pendent study; 3) a new ap-
proach from the professorial
aspect of the teacher-student
relationship.

The book contains four case
studies of college students, all
of whom "were making cre-
ative use of their education."
They had broken the "uncom-
mitted barrier," and were at-
tempting to make their aca-
demic education part of their
over-all world-view.

They were the antithesis of
the modern sophisticated stu-
dent who seems to be able to
handle "living in two different
worlds, unbothcred by tiie ne-
cessity of integrating knowl-
edge with decisions in iiis per-
sonal life."

Bringing this Idea to bear at

has small classes, serious pro-
fessors, many committed stu-
dents, but the nature of this
commitment is the same: The
work done in school or for a
cause never transcends into
their personal lives. Are these
students the most mature, with
the awareness gained in their
"extra-curricular interests, as
they should be.

Tliose intellectuals, to the
extent that they neglect either
of the two elements, are going
to fail to realize their goal.

This is exactly what Mrs.
fought Raushenbush has pointed out in

her very readable, cogent book.

Dreams and Reality

One other major point in the
book is the distance between
the academic work and the
"dreams" of the committed.
What about the relationship

What is Education: II

between these two necessities?
Should not the academic work
bear relevance to the work
that will be done after one
leaves school? (In this issue of
the Justice one sees that Bran-
deis has instituted a Human
Rights program. I do not argue
the program, only the length
of time taken to institute
this program. Civil-Rights is
not a new issue on the Amer-
ican scene.)

Relevancy is of the utmost
importance. Education which
is not relevant, is sick, "a
game" to be played by pedants.
When education is in this state,
one can see why disinterest sets
in on the part of the student.
Disinterest is first, then comes
silence, and unconscious rebel-
lion: another silent generation!

How can we, in the words of

Berkeley and denounced the in-
tervention as "brutal."

The Governor responded to
the Brandeis protest by sending
a copy of a pro-student address
he gave four years ago at a
California university. The
speech praised idealistic stu-
dents promoting civil

and social dissidence. Refusing
to condemn "this impatient
critical crop of young gadflies"
who may make "colleges lose
some donations" it concluded
"So let us stand up for our
students and be prouo of them."
In a handwritten note to the
Brandeis group, however,
Brown seemed to dilute his past
words. Now apparently fearful
of student rebellion. Brown un-
derlined "But I also believe
that the law must be obeyed."

There should be full agreement
by all citizens that the rule of
law must be maintained."

The Committee replied b y

mailing the Governor a "little

treatise" on the right of re-

. sistance to unjust laws, incorpo-

rights rating political thought from

Locke to Marcuse. The epistle
reminded the Governor that
students will never willingly
obey laws which unjustly cur-
tail their personal liberty.

The Free Speech Movement,
on the other hand, had only
prai.se for the C.I.C.'s actions.

Book Review: The Student and His Studies. Esther Raushenbush.

In the Preface of her book, Esther Raushenbush, former Dean of Sarah Law-
rence College, quotes some lines from Conrad's Lord Jim which effectively set the a question of whether to fight,
tone for this rei>ort on students and their studies in American colleges. Stein, the but
terfly collector and Conrad's Greek chorus says:

"We want in so many differ-

deis students in some way for
their gratitude.

On the local scene, mean-
while, the Committee reported
that "our active role during
Freshman elections may have
helped our cause." The group
called for a militant student
stance during a Freshman as-
sembly and unofTicially sup-
ported Larry Miller's bid for
Council membership. The C.I.C.
described Miller as "an articu-
late spokesman for a new brand
of student opinion — critical of
past student leadership only
because of its inability to score
a solid triumph." "Hell, it's not

What Stein is talking about
is the .search for a way of life
which will enable a man to live
with himself and others so that
the whole thing makes some
sense. Many people, it may be
said, .settle for ways of life
which do not really make sense;
the world uses such folk, and
th.ey pay a price, although they
may never understand how
very much, for the opportunity
to settle on their heup of mud.
This is just as true of people
who have had their years of
college as it is of those who
have not; just as true but
sadder.

The question, as Mrs. Rau-
shenbush puts it, is "how to
be". The question is a hard one,
for it has more shape than the
simple, elemental cry of the
lost: Who am I? It is

only the acquisition of know-
ledge, but a process of inquiry,
whether about ideas or art or
actions or alx)ut the prospects
for the future — personal, na-
tional, religious, or philosophi-
cal"

The book is essentially built
aroimd four case studies: four
students who, in one way or
another, had made "the con-
nection" with their studies, and
hr\d found it possible to achieve
the passion of inquiry that
made sen.se of their ye-ars in
the academy. Each came from a
different institution: Scott
Han.sen from Harvard. Mar-
garet Weaver from Macalester
College in Wisconsin. Alex
^L t..^- Rovere from New College, . . . „„_:u.„

harder Hofstra, and, not surprisingly, J -^..li^VL ^

to answer than the rock-bottom
question about identity, simply
because it will admit of answers,
at least for a time, in terms of
principles, beliefs, and pur-
po.ses, and requires that a per-
.son be In the world to get any
answers at all Certainly it re-
quires more for the answering
"experience" which is used
than any detached search for
these days to justify a particu-
larly virulent brand of con-
temporary hedonism. But it
also requires more than acade-
mic answers: ideas which are
acquired but not searched for,
and which are pasted on one
like a coat of many colors be-
cause .somebody thinks
ought to be there and
reallv make you look good. In
fact, the most imfX)rtant thing
about the question of how to
be is that it gets asked, and that
in the search for answers a per-
son gets tnind-stretched. be-
comes concerned as a human
being in a world which is man-
made, and beains to sense the
possibilities of his own achieve-
ment.

Process of Inquiry

Th'^ students of Mrs. Rau-
shenbush's study are under-

Brandeis, isn't this exactly what graduates at various colleges
the majority of people on this and universities in the United
campus are? Sure, Brandeis States who entered college in

Anna Warren from Sarah Law-
rence. The names of the stu-
dents are not real, but the stu-
dents and their experiences at
these institutions are. Although
these peoole have in common
the involvement with ideas
which puts them within the
sphere of the author's interest,
they each exhibit different
needs and achievements, and
their institutions have, in fact,
created special programs to
stimulate in .students the sort
of inquiry which makes for in-
volvement. In addition, the
selections were made with a
view toward examining a num-
ber of different problems of a
they general nature in higher educa-
they tion. Thus Han.sen's experience
at Harvard includes Rie.sman's
freshman seminars and exhi-
bits the role of literature in his
education. Rovere's case, on the
other hand is a study of New
College, an experimental "sa-
tellite" college at Hofstra. and
is an illustration of the making
of a scientist. Margaret Weaver
at Macalester makes practical
politics a part of her education,
and Anna Warren at Sarah
Lawrence discovers what kind
of teacher she can be by work-
ing with demanding, interested
teachers who are not satisfied
with mere absorption of the
riglit kinds of information.

Interests After Graduation

Mrs. Rau.shenbush talked
with these students about their
studies, read papers that they
had written, and followed
them after their graduation, in
order to get some sen.se of the
sorts of processes that were in-
volved in the development of
each one's naltern of interests
and {>erceptions and their styles
of attack on problems which
they saw as important.

In each case, the sii»nificant
feature was the influence of
one or more teachers who. be-
cause of mechanisms which the
college had made available,
were able to engage their stu-
dents in work which demanded
inquiry and gave shape to pos-
sibilities of "how to be". Teach-
er, curriculum, student — Mark
Hopkins sitting on a log with
an interested mind — the magic
combination But we all know
this, don't we** This, at least on
paper, is what college is all
about The rest is there to m.>ke

And so it
should be.

Nothing more need l>e real-
ized about Mrs. Rursh'tibush's
search through the colleges to
prove it of value than that it
provides .some concrete illus-
trjtions of academic situations
which make such achievement
possible; situations Which have
been specifically created so
that talented teachers can move
students through the .sorts of
activit.v that will enable them
not merely to find them.solves
but to make themselves So this
study does not really point to
anything new — we have only
to read and understand some of
the Socratic dialogues to .see

added Miller, "but rather how
to fight effectively. That's why
Freshman can condemn the
student council and admire the
Berkeley gang. And upperclass-
men think we're selling out!"
Miller's logic evidently proved
persuasive; he won a Council
.seat with a comfortable plural-
ity.

Sachar Speech

(Continued from Front Page)

Dr. Sachar then directed his
atUention to a recently pub-
lished book which said that
Brandeis was one of the top 19
schools in the country, along
with schools such as Harvard,
Yale, Princeton, and Swarth-
more. The study based its deci-
sion on factors such as academ-
ic stature of professors, quality
of students, library facilities,
physical plant, etc. The admis-
sions office expects the report
to increase applications for ad-
missions by at least 1000 over
last year, bringing the total to
almost 3500.

In response to questions from
stud-ents about the role of the
faculty in t,ne administration of
the school. Dr. Sachar said that
the "faculty today has virtual
autonomy on the curricular
side of the University." Dr.
Sachar noted that the faculty
has "more considerable involve-
ment in administrative prob-
lems today than there was 10
years ago." When students
pressed the point about faculty
members and the administra-
tion Dr. Sachar said:

"I don't think that the aver-
age faculty man has the total
understanding of administra-
tive problems which is neces-
sary. The faculty man has a
stronger attachmant to his dis-
cipline than to t\ye University.
He want.s respect from people
in his own field more than he
wants the respect of his fel-
low faculty members. The fac-
ulty is compartmentalized in
their competencies. Administra-
tors must have total perspec-
tive, but we don't discount the
advice of faculty members."
"For example," he said, "very
few scientists attend faculty
meetings. They're all in the
laboratories."

Dr. Sachar indicated that
**virtually everything that is
done is done by unanimous de-
cision" (of the administration).
Dean Morri.ssey chimed in,
"anything else would cause
chaos and ruination." "The
trustees," Dr. Sachar declared
in response to a question,
"have nothing to do with the
running of the school. They
have devolved their responsi-
bilities onto the President and
the administration."

The President was quite dis-
turbed at questions which con-
cerned the role of the faculty.

"T h e administrators have to
contend with the problems of
the ongoing life of the Univer-
sity. Students aren't interested
in this." And he further de-
fended the administrators by
saying that "virtually every ad-
ministrator is a fine scholar."
Dean of University Planning
and Development Clarence Q.
Berger was described by Dr.
Sachar as a "gifted sociologist,"
Dean of Students Morrissey
"has a superb background in
the field of politics," and Dean
of Admissions '^riscoll is a
"gifted literary concentrator."
Dr. Sachar closed the discus-
sion about administrators by
saying "you yoimg people had
better get out of your minds
that all administrators are busi-
nessmen. You had better
change those attitudes which
indicate a lack of respect for
the administration."

Dr. Sachar indicated "sur-
prise that such an intelligent
student body's chief concern
should be over areas that
shouldn't be their chief con-
cern. The student's chief con-
cern should be educational and
academic." Dr. Sachar then
wei't on to list the academic
credits of the University, in-
dicating that other areas, such
as administrative responsibil-
ity, were "none of your (the
students') business."

geographical. So, while this
story does not quite make it, it
is clearly the work of a tal-
ented writer, and the work of
greatest potential in this edi-
tion of "Folio."

The centerpiece of the issue
is Alvin Lucier's "Song for So-
prano." This writer knows too
little about music to appreciate
the piece qua musical composi-
tion, nor was he present at the
performance at Brandeis. But
he does wish to register his own
protest against avant-garde-ism
as such. Artistic experiment is
all to the good, but the avant-
garde work seems designed to
appeal only to other avant-
garde experimenters — to be,
in fact, the special fad and
status-child of a self-conscious
cult. I, for one, have little pa-
tence with it. Also, to the ex-
tent that art is conscious craft
concerned for its every effect,
Mr. Lucier fails it by the ran-
dom element he introduces into
the piece, viz. the suggestion
that "for each p>erformance a
different arrangement of the
strips (ie. "That the Night
Come" by Yeats) may be used."

It may be as the creation of
a self-conscious clique, though,
that Folio fails to rise to the
potential available here. A com-
parison of the names of the edi-
torial board with those of the
contributors shows great over-
lapping. Folio, as an independ-
ent journal published "at"
Brandeis has every right to in-
clude whom it wishes, but it
may be strangling on its own
exclusiveness. Surely at a Uni-
versity with upwards of 1500
students there are more than
half-a-dozen writers; surely
there are more than twice that
many talented ones. I can't
help feeling that it is the set-up
at Folio that keeps them from
submitting material.

In any event, this issue, on
sale at the bookstore, is well
worth buying and reading, both
as a clue to what is going on in
creative minds, as an index
of some local talents, and as a
frequently pleasurable literary
experience.

The largest winter sports carnival in the U. S., the North
American Vestival, gets underway in 1965 at Lake Placid,
N. Y., on Jan, 30 and concludes March 14. Final events are
scheduled each weekend in hockey, slalom skiing, indoor and
outdoor speed skating, ski jumping and bobsledding with
Olympic competitors in most events. For the tenth consecutive
year, the Lake Placid Chamber of Commerce and the Schaefer
Brewing Co. have joined in making this a *'must" for winter
sports enthusiasts.

Commitment

J. Bronowski: "make the edu-
cated man universal in 1984"?
We can not try to reach an
•*elite," rather we must raise
the level of the so-called "av-
erage student" to a plane which
is broader and higher than has
ever been thought possible be-
fore in the realm of education.
Half the students on this cam-
pus would have been denied
the right to an education one
hundred years ago because
they would have been thought
incapable!

But the realization of this
goal will cost money, much
more money than is now being
spent on education. Where this
money could be coming from is
not hard to figure out if one re-
members Mr. Savio's comment.

In conclusion, lei me quote
from The Student and His Stud-
ies once more. This could pos-
sibly serve as a description of
the higher plane of education
to be sought:

"No amount of curriculum-
making or testing programs
alters the fact that what stu-
dents study, what they learn,
what they think, if it is worth
the time of a teacher to teach,
an administrator to administer,
a custodian to keep the cor-
ridors in order, will cut deep
into the process by which a
learning youth becomes a func-
tioning adult, and the way he
lives and acts in the tremen-
dous drama of these times."

Learning

(Continued from Page 3)

Raushenbush's suggestion that,
for example, freshman walks
over the surface of several cen-
turies of western culture is not
an ideal way to get students to
inquire, and that a load of five
courses in a semester gives stu-
dents and teachers no more
than a chance to start looking
at and with each other.

I will end this review by
commenting on certain features
of the relationship (or lack
thereof) which appears to exist
between students and their
college here at Brandeis. It
seems to me, who is a relative
newcon-.er to this campus, that
some focus has been lost, or
perhaps misplaced. The burn-
ing issues on campus which I
have read about have all been,
by and large, about questions of
student rights, needs, desires
and obligations with respect to
parietal rules, sex, dormitory
selection, and activities such as
picketing of speakers. I am
sure that there are principled
positions to be taken on these
and other such issues which
could involve the university in
profitable dialogue. I am also
sure that there are many more
issues and many more things
happening in the world which,
if thought upon and acted on
would be much less diverting
(in both senses) and much more

world where all was centered
upon one last drink before the
bar closed. His focus was
dimmed and saw only the
meaninglessness of all the pre-
tenses and escapism in which
his world indulged.

As a poet, Eliot's first suc-
cess was with The Love Song
of J. Alfred Prufrock (1917),
which told of an old-young
man in search for something
out of the nothingness of his
life. His most famous poetic
work was The Waste Land
(1922), a long bitter poem
about an imaginary waste re-
gion ruled "by the Fisher
King, a little known figure of
mythology who is sexually im-
potent." The ideas in The
Waste Land have been univer-
sally accepted as pertaining to
our own culture, and it is not
uncommon for someone like
Newton Minow to refer to tele-
vision as "a vast wasteland."
The acceptance of Eliot's pres-
entation of the ills of our world
is a great tribute to Eliot's
skill as a descriptive poet.

Eliot's plays sound a differ-
ent note from the bleakness of
his poetrv. The Cocktail Party,
The Confidential Clerk, and
his final play The Elder States-
men show less bitterness to-
ward humanity than the poetry
of the younger Eliot. Murder
in the Cathedral, a play about
the murder of Saint Thomas a
Becket, the archbishop of Can-
terbury, was the most famous
of Eliot's dramatic works.

sity ought to be. The need and
the right to "have experience"
is always with us. As I have
said already, this can lead to a
bum sort of hedonism which
dismisses the world which can
and should be part of the uni-
versity and its life. The discus-
sion on "The Ideal University"
is to the point if it helps get us
a little clearer about how to
make life and learning some-
how part of a college education.

much a dance interpretation. It
was more successful in rising
to a climax at the point of
transition in the poem which
Miss Sachs' interpretation
missed. The use Miss Schwarz
made of space here was very
good. She has evolved her own
distinctive style which makes
a limited use of dissonance in
movement. It also includes a
tendency to use very strong,
sometimes almost masculine
qualities of movement.

A second poem by Dr. Gross-
man, "Lyra," was used as the
basis of a dance. This piece was
performed and choreographed
by Paula Asinof, Dinah Hirsch-
feld, and Aviva Klingfeld. Dr.
Grossman read this poem as
it was performed. His reading
was extremely beautiful, even
hypnotic. It tended to shadow
the dance which would have
been weak, even if it did not
compete with Dr. Grossman.

Preceding these three pieces
in the program were three less
successful dances. Two of them
were studies of physical forces,
the third was a study of fear.
These had the quality of mo-
tion studies rather than com-
plete compositions. This seemed
to be particularly true of Acro-
phobia, which was a very in-
teresting study of fear of
heights using silhouette, but
which was not really a finished
concert piece.

The last section of the pro-
gram was frankly a collection
of studies. Its presence in a
concert is a source of mystifica
tion. The only explanation I
can see for its presence is that
it gave everyone a chance to do
a composition, an attitude
reminiscent of sixtii grade. An-
other explanation might be that
since the program started with
a group effort, it should end in
one. For whatever reason, it
was there. Several of the
studies simply did not get
across. Several were only imi-
tative of mechanical movement.
Two, "Crane" by Lois Ettlinger
and "Coffee Percolator" by
Jane Schwarz were very suc-
cessful. Both of these were
characterized by really getting
at some quality, which charac-
terized their respective ma-
chines. On the whole however,
this section was both a failure
and a mistake.

Although this concert d i d
have its high points, many of
the dances were not concert
pieces and the lecture was not
on a levei suitable to a uni-
versity audience. It is surprising
and unfortunate that a college
group was not able to produce
a more intelligent and polished
performance.

Clark, Assumption Roll Over Brandeis

Brandeis starting five of Barry ZimmerTtian, Santo Cimino, Dave Jacohson, Steve Heller
and Co-Capt. Richie Hymoff. Zimmerman leads all scorers with 21.3 average.

In the Stands

darkies Win, 96-76; Zimmerman Nets 42

By PETE WEINER

Barry Zimmerman had a hot hand against Clark last Thursday night. Yet a 42-
point effort by the 5-11 soph whiz wasn't enough as the court Judges suffered their
seventh consecutive loss at Clark, 96176.

The Portland, Maine native scored 22 of his points in the first half and 20 in

the second. His 42 points was* — __

a new personal high for Zim
and a Brandeis high since 1959.

Barry was able to break
through Clark's pressing zone
defense to score on jumpers
and drives. He was 13 for 27
from the floor and 16 for 18
from the free throw line. Zim
also gathered in nine rebounds
in the losing cause.

A baseball and basketball
letterman at Portland High,
Barry was hoop co-captain his
senior year. Last year he
topped all freshmen with a 20.8
scoring average.

The afTable Zimmerman was
rather nonchalant about his
Clark effort. He thought he had
about 25 or so. With six min-
utes left and behind by 20, he
had to rush his shot.

The Judges backcourt star
was picked on the ECAC De-
cember Soph of the Month
Team list and leads the Bran-
deis hoopsters with a 21.3 scor-
ing average. Barry leads all
Hub hoopsters with an .850
percentage from the free throw
line, 34 for 40.

Clarkies Bite

As for the game itself, the
Judges played without the ser-
vices of flu-stricken Santo Ci-
mino. Brandeis sent a starting
team of Jeff Schwamm, Jack
Rovner. Dave Jacobson, Co-
Capt. Richie Hymoff and Zim-
merman against Clark's Bob
Krute. Skip Barys. Hank Mu-
rin, Lincoln MacDonald and
George Lucier.

The Blue and White jumped
out to an early lead and were
up by 12, 36-24, with five min-
utes to go in the first half. But
six straight points by Murin,
frosh B^rank TetrauU and Barys
narrowed the margin. The
Judges led, 40-37, after 20 min-
utes of play.

As the second half opened,
the Clarkies looked like a new
ball club as they outhuslled,
out rebounded and outclassed
the Brandeis five. With 15:37
remaining in the game, the
Judges big 6-5 center, Dave
Jacobson. committed his fifth
personal foul and left the game
with the Judges down one, 48-
47. Jacobson had pulled down
nine rebounds and contained
6-4 Murin effectively.

The Clarkies opened up their
lead on the fine shooting of
Barys (25), Murin (19), John
Hogan (12), Krute (13), Tet-
rauU (12) and MacDonald
(10). With 13 minutes to go
Clark had the game wrapped
up. The final count was 96-76.

Hymoff scored 15 for Bran-
deis, had five assists, five re-
bounds and left the game with
three minutes to go after com-
mitting his fifth (or perhaps it
was sixth) personal foul. Rov-
ner had six points and grabbed
eight rebounds. Leiderman had

Greyhounds on Top, 96-73

Assumption College, the best small college team in
New England, handed the Judges their eighth consecutive
defeat, 96-73, Saturday night at Shapiro Gym.

The Greyhounds took an*

early 12-1 on fast breaks and
quick buckets by George

three points, three rebounds
and three assists. Richie Ep-
stein pumped in three points
and Steve Heller had one
bucket.

Cold Second Half

The statistics tell the story
of the game. In the first half
the Judges were 14 for 27 for a
.519 percentage from the floor.
In the second half the Blue and
White were 11 for 39 from the
floor for .239. The Clarkies
outrebounded the Judges 74-51.
And in the second half the
Clarkies shot 25-56 from the
floor and outscored Brandeis
59-36.

A decent first half, an ice-
cold second half, defensive
lapses, bad passes, violations
and weak board strength cost
Brandeis the game. The Judges
could not contend with Clark's
pressing zone defense and had
trouble getting the ball across
halfcourt. And with Cimino
and Jacobson out, Lieder-
man and Rovner had to carry
the burden under the boards.

As for the freshmen, well,
they lost — although it was only
by 32 this time, 90-58. Three
men hit double figures for
Brandeis — Rick Brodsky,
Charlie Novagrodsky and Steve
Jacobs each had 11 points.

Hoop-La

The Clarkies gym, reminiscent
of a shoe box, resounded with
cheers led by Misses Stein and
Gordon. — Co-Capt. Dave Ep-
stein may rejoin the team after
midyears. — No longer with the
squad is big Mel Sega 1. —
Coach Gene Booth has his
troubles. The frosh have lost
by 24, 56, 77, 52, 32 and 38.
Good luck, Gene.

Ridick and Tom O'Connor. A
strong Greyhound pressing
zone defense was effective
against the Judges as the As-
sumption five took a 37-14 lead
with ten minutes to go.

With three of Assumption's
starters on the bench, the Blue
and White whittled down the
margin to 21 points, 55-34, at
halftime. The Judges grabbed
only three defensive rebounds
as Assumption shot 66% from
the floor in the first half.

The Greyhounds held their
own the rest of the way as the
count wavered between 18 and
29 points in the final half. The
Judges showed a few instances
of cohesion but couldn't cope
with the Assumption zone de-
fense and fast break offense.

Assumption outshot Brandeis
from the floor 53% to 42 %»
and from the free throw line,
71% to 67%,. They outrebound-
ed the Judges 51 to 37.

High scorers were Barry
Zimmerman of Brandeis and
Ridick of Assumption with 22
apiece. Four other Greyhounds
hit double figures; O'Connor
had 15, Jim Monahan had 12,
Ted Paulauskas and John
Wheeler had 11.

On the Brandeis side, Zim-
merman gathered in eight re-
bounds and had a hot second
half with 16 points. Richie
Hymoff contributed 11 points,
Jack Rovner eight, all in the
first half, Dave Jacobson seven
points and eight rebounds,
Santo Cimino seven points, and
Steve Heller and Mike Leider-
man six apiece.

The victory upped Assump-
tion's record to 7-1, their only
lo.ss at the hands of unbeaten
Providence. George Ridick was
big man for the Greyhounds
with his 22 points, and 13 re-
bounds. He was eight for nine
from the floor and six for six
from the twelve foot line.

The Judges put their un-
blemished record on the line
against SufTolk this Friday
afternoon at Shapiro Gym.

The Fro.sh lost again, 82-44,
for their sixth straight defeat.

The Brandeis hoopsters re-
ceived a first place vote in
the weekly Associated Press
Poll on January 8, 1957.

Good Gays., Titans. Bites

Lead Intramural Leagues

At the end of the first month of play. The Good Guys
held an impressive lead in the A League Standinpfs, while
the situation remains uncertain in B North and B South.
The Good Guys, all sopho-*

mores, swept to a 4-0 record by
defeating the Trojans and
Cherry Memorial twice each.
The Faculty, led by high scor-
ing Gene Booth, nipped the
Trojans 58-53 to hold down
second place with a 1-0 record.
In the battle to escape the cel-
lar. Cherry Memorial beat the
Trojans with a last-second bas-
ket, thus gaining their first vic-
tory of the season.

Booth, with 29 points in his
team's win over the Trojans, is
far and away the classiest ball-
player in the league. Bill Rubin
paces the well-balanced scoring
attack of the Good Guys with
49 points in four games while
Dave Gerstel leads the Trojans
with a 10.8 average.

In B North. Hunt's Titans re-
mained at the top of the heap
with a hard-fought 36-32 vic-
tory over The Nads. The Pis-
tons, with the most high-pow-
ered ofTense in the league, are
tied with the Titans with a 3-0
record. The Innermost Parts,
idle during the past week, re-
mained undefeated and in third

place. The Nads, paced "by Bob
Hort's hot hand, edged New
Old Lompock 38-37 and upped
their record to 2-1. The hapless
East Quad team took it on the
chin twice, 51-36 and 36-24 to
Hunt's Titans. At the end of the
week, Hort led the league in
scoring with 45 points, al-
though Peter Lazes had the
highest scoring average, 15.5.
A four-way tie at the top was
created in B South when the
Nebishes, Shapiro B, and the
Bites all scored easy wins. Sha-
piro B, paced by high scoring
Dave Litwack and Steve Gil-
bert, crushed the A Nications
50-31. The Nebishes defeated
the G.B.'s 22-8. The Bites
feasted on the same opposition,
35-8, and topped the FEM's,
30-24. The A Nications bounced
back from their earlier defeat
and beat the Campus Trotters
50-11 and the B Nications
37-32. Pete Siris of the A Nica-
tions leads all B South scorers
with a 17.7 average. He is fol-
lowed by Litwack, Barry Ber-
lin, Mel Orleans, and Gilbert.

Student Union Complex Outlined;
To Be Finished in Five Yeurs

The student union complex to be built in the old City of V/altham reservoir will
look in cross section something like a five stack steamship. It should be built some-
time within the next five years, according to Director of Business Administration
David Rolbein. There will be six or seven levels, two or three of which will be above
ground in five separate buildings named for their respective donors.

Starting from the bottom level and working up, the building will contain one or
two levels of parking space. — — __^

Over the parking area will betered throughout.

an enlarged bookstore and mail
room, bowling and billiards
areas, and possibly a vending
machine area. The next floor
up, which may be partly or
wholly above ground, will in-
clude food services, a small
restaurant, the snack bar, a
banquet hall-ball room, and
possibly Cholmondeley's

One of the five buildings
forming the crown of the union
complex will be devoted to the
administrative offices for the
union itself. Another will con-
tain facilities for student gov-
ernment and organizations, in-
cluding meeting and confer-
ence rooms for the use of the
Students. Other buildings will
contain various social, recrea-
tional and cultural facilities
such as television, a browsing
room, card rooms, and rooms
for such interest groups as arts
and crafts, music, dance, pho-
tography and ham radio. Rooms
will also be provided for Alum-
ni offices, Chaplain's offices
and counseling. Other meeting
rooms and lounges will be scat-

Sgan Promotes
New Baldfidge
Reading Course

In an interview last week.
Associate Dean for Student Af-
fairs Leonard Zion spoke about
how the building will be run
and what sort of programs
might be associated with it. He
said that the Brandeis student
union, following the pattern of
student unions all over the
country, would be run by a
board which would include
some students, along with ad-
ministrators. The various serv-
ices, such as parking and the
restaurant, will be run by con-

cessionaires. Dean Zion said
that he hoped to see a more
campus-centered student life
develop around the complex.

He spoke about some of the
programs that might develop
using the new facilities, includ-
ing lecture series, dance con-
certs, and other kinds of cul-
tural events, adding that he
would like to see the Student
Council Union Committee con-
tinue to function in developing
standing committees of council,
such as the film committee, into
programs.

Reform Defeated;
Status Quo Stands

student Council voted Thursday to retain its present
election rules concerning campaign literature distributed
in campus elections. The council then requested that the
Elections Committee increase its publicity efforts in order
to promote greater student awareness of issues.

At present, the rules prohibit the distribution of more

than one issue of publicity ma-^ —

terial favoring any one candi-
date or position. This restric-
tion has been defended as

necessary to assure all Candi-
da t e s equal opportunity for
publicity. Objections have been
raised against the regulation on
the grounds that it inhibits
campus involvement in elec-
tions and that it may be un-
constitutional. The constitution-
al issue centers around Article
IV, section 7 which reads, "It
is the right of every student to
discover, learn, conduct re-
search, publish, discuss, and ex-
change findings, individually or
in association." The Student
Board of Review, according to
Chief Justice Peter Levinson,
has not yet reached a decision
on the relevance of this section
to the election rules dispute.

A committee, headed by Ira
Liebowitz '67, was set up re-
cently by the council in order
to investigate possible changes
in the restrictions on election

NSM Transportation

NSM ond SNCC hove decided
to use public transportation, es-
pecially the B and M Railroad to
get members to their activities in
Boston. A depleted budget, due
to the expense of cars and buses,
has mode this move necessory.
An effort will be mode to get
money to pay for the fores.

This semester, the University
will offer a special reading and
study skills program designed
by the Baldridge Reading Serv-
ices. Dean Matthew Sgan said
that there have been many re-
quests for such a program from
freshmen.

The Baldridge course was
chosen because of its supposed
success at Williams and other
universities.

More than one hundred stu-
dents have enrolled in the five-
week course, which will re-
quire approximately five hours
of work each week. Dean Sgan
believes that increased reading
speed need not reduce compre-
hension, and he pointed out,
**No person is working at his
best speed." The program em-
phasizes concentration, struc-
ture, rate increases, and critical
evaluation.

The program usually costs
an individual $150 but since
the University is giving the in-
structors free room and board,
Brandeis students will be
charged only $70.

publicity. In his report Thurs-
day, Liebowitz stated that the
present regulation results in
widespread apathy. To remedy
this, he suggested that the
council allocate about ten dol-
lars to each candidate for use
in campaign publicity. This, he
claimed, would create greater
student interest in elections
while giving all office seekers
an equal opportunity to be
heard. His report was sup-
ported by Elliot Evans '66, who
declared that the present "three
line blurbs" were not the kind
of publicity needed to arouse
student interest in election is-
sues.

Council Opinions ^

A polling of council, how-
ever, revealed that the majority
of the members were opposed
to any changes in the present
restrictions. Student Council
Treasurer Frank Bloch ex-
pressed the views of most of
the members when he stated
that Brandeis was small enough
so that "a few hours of work
per day" talking to the students
would be the best way for a
candidate to get his position
across. He declared that any
candidate who was not willing
to do this "was not fit to be
President." Others who op-
posed a change in the rule
argued that the regulation did
not constitute a restriction of
the rights to publish and dis-
cuss. They claimed that there
was no precedent for consider-

ties unconstitutional. They also
held that any student apathy
regarding elections would be
best handled through increa.sed
publicity efforts on the part of

status quo regarding campaign

vote of 11-1, Ira Liebowitz dis-
senting.

Council Slashes
Union Budget
To End Deficit

A plan to trim over $2500
from the Student Union budget
was tentatively approved by
the Student Council on Thurs-
day.

The budget proposal, pre-
sented by the Budget Commit-
tee, would affect many campus
organizations, including the
dorm fund, the Folk and Crea-
tive Arts Festivals, and a large
number of clubs.

Student Union income for
this year is estimated at about
$40,000, almost all from pay-
ment of the Student Activities
Fee. Expenditures, according
to the present budget, would be
about $42,900. The total sav-
ings from the new cuts, accord-
ing to Council Treasurer Frank
Bloch, would bring expendi-
tures to within a few hundred
dollars of income. The reduc-
tions are to be made by trim-
ming the surplus remaining
from fall term allocations, thus
prohibiting many organizations
from using the money left over
from their fall budgets to cover
their spring expenses.

The most controversial pro-
posal was a planned cut of $500
in the amount of money to be
given to the dorm fund for the
promotion of social activities.
This would have the effect of
reducing the money available
to each dorm from $2.00 to
$1.75 per student.

The motion finally adopted
by the council calls for the no-
tification of the presidents of
all organizations affected, giv-
ing them time to appeal the
planned reductions at the next
coimcil meeting. The vote \,'as
11-0, Treasurer Bloch abstain-
ing.

EDITOR'S NOTE: "He' refers to Morris T. Keeton, Dean of
the Faculty at Antioch College. The JUSTICE is m full ayree-
ment witfi tfiis eloquent statement, hence our use of it as our
fust (juest editorial.

Crazy Like Parents
Liljeral education is too much in
phrase that KUiot Cohen, late e(litt)r
translated as '*crazy like parents". The reference is not
to all parents, but only to those who are too protective,
too self-interested, too interested in j)reserving unchanged
the roles of innocent child ami wise i)arent. Contemporary
society needs much more sophisticated «)nd mature adults. The
student will not become so by being coddled in his housing,
spoon-fed in the classroom and then di.npered with a hood at
commencement. Colleges today do not move students far
enough toward maturity.

The student's capacity for response grows best if he is ex-
posed, under tutelage, to opportunities to exercise lesponsibility,
be it in learning itself, in work, in play, or in social action. The
typical liberal arts college today, however, is unwilling to ex-
pose its students to the risks of such responsibility.

I sympathize with the college, parent, and student. If giverf
this freedom, students may make some ridiculous, sometimes
even destructive, choices. Why? Not because they are less
mati.rc than mo.vt afUilts (look at voter behavior at the polls, or
at tlie results of certain per.«^onality tests given to students and
adults.) Not because students, even freshmen, know less than
the adults. And not because students are less idealistic and
ethical than others (if anything, they arc too starry-eyed).
"Without elaborating, 1 would assume dillerent dangers.

Novices in Freedom

1. Few students have enough vested interests of their own
to bo "stnsible" in our terms — they have little to lose.

2. Having been protected from the effects of their earlier
acts, most students sense but dimly the consequences of what
they do. "If 1 had known it would be like this — ", She said to
the dean.)

3. Few students have a good sense of timing: when they
are first put in charge of producing the effects they want, they
expect miracles right away.

4. In addition, students harbor much mythology and
demonology. Complex problems, they often think, Jiave a single
easily removable cause — for example, the presidents, who
must be knuckling under to donors or the legislature. Though
v«^oeial scientists teaeii the pervasively social nature of man
(there are no purely private acts), some students think that
what they do in private should be of no interest to the faculty.
A student once said to me, "If what I do is all right in my value
system, what business is it of yours?"

Ciiving Students Responsibility
These facts, however, call for neither fenced compounds nor
proctored study hails. Students are to te cherished as they are
— and trusted. Although, from the jaundiced perspective of an
older generation, students may not seem ready for such re-
sponsibility, they should be obliged to take it; for if thry do
not, they will remain immature. They become aduU if we trust
them with responsibilities larger than they have handled before,
but not so large that they cannot meet expectations reasonably
well. To educate is to draw out to greater fulfiliment. Thus I
welcome the readiness of students to get involved in the civil
rights struggle, to skip classes in order to study or write, and
to demand a voice in college affairs.

Limits of Responsibility
Teaching through rtsponsibility-giving requires a great
deal of emotional comtiiitment and commitment of sheer time
and faculty energies. II would be irresponsible of the faculty to
bestow freedoms upon students and then wash tiieir hands of
matters. The faculty must deliberate with students about the use
of their freedom. Student leaders who wish their freedom to
continue and to grow will be obliged to interpret this situation
at length to their peers: freedoms always have limits; in the
long run the rang« of responsibilities, and thus of freedom, is
expanded only if we observe limits and work eflcctively to ful-
fill responsibilities within them.

Furthermore, if students are active citizens, they will
learn that the routes to ellective social change arc slow, mul-
titudinous, and usually very unspectacular. Their ideals will
often sustain them through the learning. A student leader, dis-
cussing mistakes made it a sit-down civil rights protest, ex-
plained to me, "But, Mr. Keeton, 1 want to be part of a move-
ment." Early studies of religious conversion, however, indicated
that adolescents were particularly susceptible to whoop-and-
holler conversion. They have since swooned for Sinatra and
screeched for the Beatles. Erik Erikson sees fidelity as a particu-
lar strength of youth. It is a special boon to college.;, for the
search for fidelity's proper object is of singular concern in liberal
studies. Still, high ideals and readiness to be jailed will not
sufiice in our society to remedy our ills. The problems are com-
plex and deep-rooted. With opportunity and faculty aid and
counsel, students are bright and unselfish enough to learn these

things. , ....

I predict more, rather than less student participation in
political causes. Tlie (juestion is not whether there will be
participation, but whether we will develop more responsible,
constructive, and eflective participation than that of students in
Latin America, Asia — or our own country.

In this country we have the opportunit> lo find a more
effective role for students in the constructive change of our
culture, and at the same time to enhance their learning and
accelerate their maturity. Surely we will not turn away from
an opportunity so relevant to liberal education — the oppor-
tunity to be crazy like good parents.

Elliot Evans:

In its sixteen years Brandeis
has produced a rate of growth
and a standard of educational
excellence of which we can all
be rightly proud. There are few
who would dispute this conten-
tion. Yet in the next few years,
Brandeis will have to meet
more serious and complex
problems than ever before if
this growth is to continue. The
student body can play an im-
portant part in seeking solu-
tions, or it can sit idly by and
watch others make the deci-
sions. It need not choose the
latter, but if it docs, outraged
cries later will be of no avail.
For now is the time to take the
initiative, to redirect our ac-
tions toward those areas which
need attention if student life is
going to be improved. Now is
the time to look for new an-
swers, and to reject those old
notions which have failed in
the past.

Council and Constitution

This year we have witnessed
unprecedented disregard for
the rights of students by the
Student Council. On more than
one occasion the Council com-
pletely ignored clear provisions
of the Student Union Consti-
tution, even when students
pointed out those provisions
and asked for action. The most
recent example was the refu-
sal by the Council to call for a

freshman election, so that the
freshmen could be represented
on Council. The Constitution
explicitly provides for such an
election before Christmas va-
cation, but because Council re-
fused to meet its obligation, the
freshmen were forced to appeal
to SBR to secure their rights.
Although this may seem unim-
portant to many, I believe that
members of Council must live
within constitutional limits,
even if they do not like those
limits. Even on such matters as
voting procedure within Coun-
cil itself, the Constitution has
been violated. Either no one on
Council has read the Constitu-
tion, or no one thought it im-
portant enough to obey. Either
is inexcusable.

It is abundantly clear, how-
ever, that the Constitution sim-
ply does not provide an ade-
quate framework for student
activity. While the school has
been changing in size and char-
acter, the Constitution has not,
and there is real need for a re-
evaluation of the entire docu-
ment. This should be done not
only by the Council but by a
large number of students rep-
resenting many views. Those
portions which are inadequate
or outdated should be changed.
But there should be an effort to
involve as many students as
possible, for only this will give
us the workable answers we
need. It is not sufficient to
claim, as Steve Mora did at the

SBR hearing on the freshmen
election, that if some provi-
sions are bad they may be dis-
regarded. To me this is a weak,
evasive answer, which, if ac-
cepted, would make a mockery
of the Constitution. That is not
my idea of leadership.

Council Leadership

The Council has failed to
meet its responsibilities in
other areas as well. Why is it,
for example, that not a single
word is ever heard from the
Council on academic issues?
No matter how much emphasis
is placed on extra-curricular
activities (and these are surely
important) Brandeis students
are here to be educated, and it
seems to me that we might
make some improvements in
educational policy. Why has
there been no exchange be-
tween Council and the Educa-
tional Policies Committee of
the faculty? Can't we rightfully
expect the Council to take
some initiative and formulate
serious proposals for presenta-
tion to the faculty? The stu-
dents certainly have a right to
have their views made known.
Although we are not yet equal
partners in running the Uni-
versity, we could have much
more influence if we simply
utilized all the possibilities
open to us. 1 am not satisfied
that we have done this.

Council has also failed to
work out adequate solutions to
(^Co>iti7iued on Page 7)

Bert Foer:

Since announcing my inten-
tion to run for Coimcil Presi-
dent, I have been accused of at
least the following three faults:
too radical — too conservative
— too moderate. The last accu-
sation appeared in the form of
a tea bag fortune anonymously
placed in my mailbox, which
read "Moderation in the pur-
suit of moderation is no vir.
tue."

There has always been a pov-
erty in labels, but in this par-
ticular campaign tags of radi-
calism and conservatism arc
unusually misleading. If they
have any value at all, it is to
outline the two limits of the
range of student opinion. In
this case, the "radicals" would
favor a "permanent revolu-
tion" against the administra-
tion, would desire students to
totally direct the aflairs of the
university (as in the univer-
sities of Italy in the late Middle
Ages), and would at the same
time eschew all questions of
monev, public relations, and (I
assume) reality. The "con-
servatives," on the other hand,
would accept the status quo,
would maintain that students
already have enough, or pos-
sibly too much, power, that
open doors are good doors, and
would denounce all talk of
ideals as the irresponsible ab.
stractions of immature minds.

Progressive Labor

In fact, of course, few stu-
dent would hold to either of
these positions. My own posi-
tion, as I will try to make
clear, combines elements of
both views. I find it useful to
picture ourselves in terms of a
labor union: a small union with
high ideals, but a young union

with little power. The progress
we make must come through
negotiations with the Manage-
ment, which can he seen as a
huge and rather efficient cor-
poration headed by a talented
Captain of Industry. Our suc-
cess will depend on many fac-
tors, the two most important
being, first, the intelligence and
abiliiy of our leader.sliip, and
second, the tenacity with which
each side feels compelled to
hold to a particular policy. In
some cases we will get what
we want if only we will take
the initiative; in others Man-
agement will attempt to make
us happy; and in others it will
only yield enough to keep us
minimally satisfied. Beyond
these categories we run into
trouble, for there are also situ,
ations where neither side, for
various reasons, is willing or
able to compromise or even
negotiate. At this point, and
only this point, can we roll out
our weapon of last resort, the
general strike (or the mass pro-
test or the grand sit-in).

Translated from metaphor, I
am sn> ing that I have no com-
punction against student revo-
lution, provided it is carried
out as a means to a good end,
that being an amorphous thing
we can call "the best interest
of the student body." But what
is in our best interest? Cer-
tainly wc would include such
tilings as academic freedom, in-
dividual autonomy, an out-
standing faculty, more scholar-
ships, and so on. What we must
be careful to recognize, how.
ever, is that a student revolu-
tion which is not successful
will most likely harm these
and other interests we hold.
Therefore, let me suggest that
in general two conditions must
be fulfilled if a revolution here

Peace Group Lecture

Bradford Lyttle, member of the Quebee-Washington-
Guantanamo Walk for Peace of the Committee for Non-
Violent Action, will address a meeting of the Brandeis
Peace Group in Schwartz Hall Thursday at 7:30.

Lyttle, 37, is a veteran of numerous efforts to com-
municate the philosophy of non-violence. The latest, the
Walk for Peace, lasted from May 1963 to October 1964.
it asked for an end to military solutions for international
disagreements and for recognition of Cuba. At several
places alonir the route they were harassed and forbidden
to speak.

Lyttle was among the crew of five who were arrested
by Federal officials for trying to sail the 24" power boat
"The Spirit of Freedom" from Miami to Havana in an
effort to complete the walk to Guantanamo.

is to be in our best interest.
First, the students must be
willing to unite; in addition,
they must understand, individ-
ually, that their actions may
cost them dearly (and we have
far more to lose than our
chains). Secondly, the issue at
stake must be of such a nature
that the fight won't be hope-
less. That is, it must be basic,
in the sense that the Berkeley
Free Speech Movement was
basic, because the idea of a lib-
eral university is negated if
free speech, including political
activities oif all shades, is not
permitted. And the issue must
be universal, in the sense that
it can commend itself to out-
side help. Free speech is such
an issue. Closed doors, as we
learned a year ago, apparently
is not.

Crisis Reexamination

A year ago we stood on the
brink of open revolution. The
issue was basic: our Adminis-
tration had negated what we
considered to be an essential
aspect of the truly liberal uni-
versity. It had, by fiat, taken
away from us a large portion
of our individual autonomy.

The issue was basic. But was
it universal? When we began
our revolt, we believed that we
could count on outside help.
Our most "radical" leaders
even believed that an adver-
ti.'-cmcnt in the New York
Times would be our winning
tactic. As the days went by,
though, it became painfully ob,
vious that we had no outside
support. Neither our faculty
nor our aliuTini nor our parents
nor our fellow-students at oth-
er institutions nor the news-
papers would back us, and con-
sequently we had no realistic
chance of winning. When Pres-
ident Sachar threatened to ex-
pel the twenty-five leaders (I
was one, at this point) and any
other leadership groups that
would arise, we had no choice
but to bend. Brought to a
naked confrontation of power
and standing alone, we had no
hope for victory. The implica-
tion here is not that wc should
never attempt anything unless
we are assured of success, but
that we should go forward only
with our eyes fully open to the
facts and potentialities of the
situation, and that if we have
no chance of success by one
route, we should change
course.

Now this year's Council at-
tempted a somewhat similar
disruption, in the form of an
abortive farce deemed a "din-

New Bulletin on
Council Affairs

The Student (-ouncil, after a long delay, will begin
distributing the second issue of its P>ulietin this week. It
is to be sent to parents, alumni, trustees, and faculty
members in an attemi)t to further relations between the
student l)0(iy and the greater Brandeis community. The
delay in publication was attributed by Kditor William
Moody to technical problems

on the part of the printers.

The Bulletin is aimed mainly
at increasing contact betwcvn
the current students ai d the
alumni. Thiii has been a major
goal of the present Student
Council. Copies of this issue
may also be posted around the
campus.

Tlie current issue features a
review of the council's tri-
partite university government
plan. According to the bulletin,
"the compelling neeo for .some
new arrangement," highlighted
by "recent administrative ac-
tions," had led the council to
propose the change in univer-
sity government. The tripartite
plan, designed to give the ad-
ministration, the faculty and
the student body an equal voiee
in determining campus policy,
is seen in the article as a way
to "create a more smooth-run-
ning university."

The bulletin also contains
brief articles on tiie collection
of tlie Student Activities Fee,
the resignation of Dr. Marcu.se,
and the initiation of the "sit-
down dinner program." The
publication expresses its ap-
proval of Ihv^ decision to allow
the council to handle its own

financial affairs, bui complains
about the manner in which lue
decision was made. Comment-
ing on Dr. Mareuse's announced
resignation, the bulletin quotes
lum as saying, 'i still feel
young enough to look forward
to my new wmture. However,
I am .sorry to leave my fru-nds
on the faculty and my students.
They have been good for me
and I hope I have been good
for them."

The Committee for an
Ideal Campus, a group (hat
studies educational oppor-
tunities at Brandeis and
elsewhere, will hold a meet-
ing Thursday to acquaint
students with Brandeis his-
tory, issues in the February
Student Council Election,
and the results of their t urs
to other campuses. The meet-
ing will concentrate on (be
University's early disputes
with the Zionists and Albert
liinstein and the adniinislr;t-
tion's later differences with
the faculty-student sectors.
The meetini; will bo held at

play down or actually to sup-

Warren's casual and unex-
plained remark to reporters
that certain information at the
hearings "will not be disclosed

If the exposition of a left-
wing conspiracy would have
been dangerous, that of a right-
wing conspiracy would prob-
ably have been even more
troublesome. Suppose, for ex-
ample, as Buchanan in fact
does, that memlx»rs of the Dal-
las police force and possibly in-
fluential Dallas businessmen,
were involved. The implica-
tion would be, to say the least,
troublesome to all U. S. systems
of authority, and to many eco-
nomically powerful men.

No. better to leave it in Os-
wald's hands. But Buchanan,
in his first 150 or so pages, so
tiioroughly destroys the Os-

Americans are) could adhere
to it, nuicli less "question the

tory is that precisely by rais-
ing the.se vague questions one
can get a more incisive notion
of an age.

Another source is the study
of Utopian fantasies. Dr. Man-
uel asserted that an historical
picture of Utopian conceptions
might show a rhythm which is
not exclusively dependent upon
socio-economic factors, i.e.
which is in a real sense related
to psychological needs and
processes. The question of
Utopia is particularly interest-
ing because a vital area of con-
temporary sociological inquiry
is the sociology of knowledge:
the study of the relationship
between knowledge and the
existential situation — the so-
cial situation — of the individ-
ual. Much work has been done,
especially by Karl Mannheim,
on the social bases of utopian
thought. It is clear that for the
moment our intellectual imagi-
nations are being sufficiently
strained by the effort to inde-
pendently develop coherent
psychological and sociological
theories of Utopia without at-
tempting synthesis. It is also
obvious that the psychological
and sociological disciplines, as
applied to a problem like that
of Utopia, are not mutually ex-
clusive.

I It is in the dynamic nature
of intellectual growth that ef-

forts at interdisciplinary progf-
ress need not await a high level
of intradisciplinary sophistica-
tion.]

Both speakers mentioned the
importance of family structural
patterns as a fruitful area of
psyco-historical study. The
question itself is of obvious so-
ciological concern, and there
have been many such studies.
Patterns of family structure
would seem to be important to
any historical and economic
study of a civilization. Profes-
sor Hughes touched upon the
relevance of psychological in-
sights such as Freud's "oedipus
complex" to our understanding
of the family. Finally, anthro-
pological insight is required for
a proper perspective: the "Mali-
nowski corrective" of the
"oedipus complex" points out
that in some primitive societies
the maternal uncle is the domi-
nant figure in the family rather
than the father. This is not to
oversimplify the problem of
synthesis nor to negate the im-
portance of the limited studies
that have been done, but to
suggest the possible interrela-
tionships that exist and which
are therefore op-en to study.

spective. There are many in-
spiring moments: seeing the
excited reactions of a young
child in understanding a Free-
dom Primer or watching a
noble woman like the leader of
the project in action. I have
done so because, as many com-
mentators have noted, it is be-
coming clear that the crucial
step in the establishment of Ne-
gro-White equality is the estab-
lishment of a realistic Negro-
White dialogue. For this to oc-
cur self-identification must first
take place. Paradoxically, for
the labels "White" and "Black"
to lose their significance, the
White man must first discover
what is really involved in being
White, as must the Black man.
The importance of self-knowl-
edge seems to be illustrated by
the problems arising in the
Laurel project because people
were understandably unsure as
to who they were and why they
were there. I suspect that these
workers are closer to answer-
ing these difficult questions
than those of us who have yet
to make the trip.

motion of '*In.liano-.s", or
tural nationalism.

It is Uie necessities of
future, most particularly
amelioration of p<jverty,
unites these three branches of
the Indian Government's poli-
cy. To overcome this poverty
requires not only centralized
economic planning, but also
tile willingness to sacrifice for
future industrialization, whicii
implies the continuation of
'struggle' mentality into the
post- independence era. This in
turn implies tlie people's parti-
cipation in governmental pro^b-
lems, and tiie minimaliz ition
of external military needs, tliat
tlie Congress h*arty's political
policies insure; it implies the
social redirection, and cultural
nationalism, that its 'social'
policies seek.

We have noted that Mrs.
Gandhi's persp-vtive is neces-
sarily influenced by her fam-
ily connection to the Congress
Party. We therefore find iier
enthusiastic affirmation of the
Congress Party's seeking of the
middle way, both in terms

of

mixed economy and in terms of
international politics, quite un^
derslaiidable. It is more than
possible, however, tliat this
nearly unqualified affirmation
is, at least in some respects, a
distortion. We have seen that
the logic of nonalignment can
work both ways; as far as the
economy goes, it seems to us
that an equivalent distortion
was made. For example, last
year's food shortage may have
been illusory for those who
could afford to buy and hoard
food; it was not so for those
wlio could not afford '.j hoard.
This, of course, is one of the
many ex post dislocations of
private enterprise economy.

On the whole, however, Mrs.
Gandlii's affirmation of Con-
gress Party government re-
flected the actual success of her
fatiier's government, particu-
larly in comparison to the state
of India in 1947. Furtliermore,
her satisfaction witii tlie ci)'jrse
of India to date also reflects
the satisfaction of Congress
Party leaders with the policies
they are pursuing, which en-
ables us to forecast the con-
tinuation of those policies. Mrs.
Gandhi's speech, it turns out,
was informative in terms of the
future as well as the past.

C W; Post Rips Brandeis 69 ^ 45
For Judges* 12th Straight Loss

By I. LLOYD MICHAELS

Despite the inspirational return of co-captain Dave Epstein, Brandeis suffered
its twelfth straight loss of the season, bowing to C. W. Post, 69-45, Saturday night be-
fore a small but enthusiastic crowd at the Shapiro Athletic Center. Ice cold shooting
by the Judges, rather than an overpowering Post offense, proved to be the primary
difference between the two

clubs. Brandeis shot an anemic
27% from the floor and 50%
from the foul line.

Post came into the game with
a strong 12-2 record, losing
only to Hofstra and Merri-
mack, but looked like some-
thing less than world-beaters,
especially during the first half.
Only the timely scoring of
sophomore Mike Levine kept
the Pioneers in Uie game
through most of the early go-
ing.

The Judges, coming off a very
strong showing against highly
rated St. Michael's started
the game with Santo Cimino at
center, Barry Zimmerman and
Jack Rovner at forwards,
Richie Hymoff and the rapidly
developing Richie Epstein in
the backcourt.

Low Scoring

The game opened up as a
shooting contest between Le-
vine and Brandeis' great soph
scorer, Barry Zimmerman.
Zimmerman opened the scor-
ing with a jumper from the
corner, Levine followed with a
layup and a pretty three-point
play, only to be matched by
Zimmerman's jumper from .he
key. With both teams playing
extremely tight defense, the
scoring was very low through-
out the half. A fantastic driv-
ing layup by Hymoff gave the
Judges their biggest lead of the
night, 15-11, at the ten-minute
mark. A long jumper by Le-
vine and Bob Rosen's basket
put the Pioneers back into the
lead, 17-16, but Hymoffs beau-
tiful feed to Rovner put the
Judges in front again with four
minutes remaining. The lead
see-sawed until the final sec-
onds of the half when, with
Brandeis playing for one shot,
Levine stole the ball and hit a
25-foot jumper at the buzzer,
giving the Long Islanders a

24-22 edge at the intermission.

the Pioneers out running at the
start of the second half. The

ketball caught the Judges by
surprise and Post quickly
surged into a big lead. A run of
eight straight points following
Richie Epstein's jumper from
the corner pushed Post into a
commanding 39-26 advantage
after 5:20. At this point, big
Dave Jacobson entered the
game and briefly revived the
Judges' attack. Two quick
buckets by Jacobson, the sec-
ond one a sweeping hook that
brought the crowd to its feet,
cut the deficit to 41-31, but
Levine's layup steadied the
Pioneers again.

Dave Epstein made his first
appearance of the season at the

10 minute mark and received
an ovation from the partisan
crowd.

Turning Point

Post's lead remained solid
until, with 7:20 remaining in
the game, Capt. Rosen fouled
out with his club out in front,
50-35. At this point the Judges
seemed suddenly fired up for
the first time in the game.
Hymoffs jumper and Jeff
Schwamm's tap-in cut the lead
to 51-39. Hymoff followed with
a great d rive and when
Schwamm stole the ball and
fed Cimino for a layup, Bran-
deis trailed by only nine, 52-
43, with six minutes left. Le-
vine immediately reversed the
Judges momentum, however,
with another three-point play,
this coming on a 20-foot jump-
er. After Levine's basket. Post
simply ran away from the de-
moralized Judges, turning the
contest into a rout. In the final
six minutes following Cimino's
layup, the Blue and White
scored exactly two points.

The Judges had plenty of
scoring opportunities through-
out the evening, but simply
couldn't cash in on relatively
easy shots. Overall, they man-
aged only 17 field goals in 62
attempts. Zimmerman, who be-
gan the game with a hot hand,
turned in one of the poorest
shooting performances of his
career, hitting only 4 of 19
from the field and finishing
with a total of nine points.
Hymoff led the Brandeis of-
fense with 17 points. Levine
topped all scorers with 21.

On a brighter note, the Bran-
deis freshmen, winners their
last time out, looked vastly im-
proved while losing to a strong
Leicester J.C., 81-65. Jerry
Katz (18) and Steve Jacobs
(14) paced the Frosh attack.

Richard Cohen, John Jacobs,
and Steve Liebhaber led the
way with three wins apiece.
Coiien and Lieohaber fenced
saber while Jacobs posted his
points in foil matches.

Licbhaber's saber feat was
the surprise of the season, since
it came only one day after the
freshman star began using the
weapon. He had notched one
previous victory, fencing foil
in an earlier match against
Bradford-Durfee.

Other victors Saturday in-
cluded Richard Steinberg, who
gained two points in foil, and
Fred Kaplan, who added one
with the same weapon. Dave
Finkel and John Kalish con-
tributed one point apiece in
epee matches, and Neil Barnett
chalked up the fifteenth in a
saber contest. Harry Malcch,
the third member of the epee
team, was unable to top any of
his three opponents.

The team's other victories
came in home matches against
Bradford-Durfee, 17-10, Holy
Cross, 19-8, and an away con-
test at Norwich, 17-10. Coach
Marty Martinian's men have
lost once to M.I.T., 17.10, and
twice to Harvard, 16-11, and
17-10.

The Brandeis swordsmen
gained Saturday's victory in
spite of the absence of two
regulars. Ed Koplowitz, usual-
ly an epee standout, and Dan
Shames, a saber starter, were
both sidelined with illness.

Grapplers Top Emerson

The Brandeis wrestling team brought their record up
to three wins and four defeats with successive victories
over Leicester Junior College and Emerson. With four
matches left on the schedule,

the grapplers thus have a
chance of concluding with a
winning season for the first
time since the sport v/as intro-
duced at Brandeis.

With co-captains Bob Ler-
man and Joel Markowitz, as
well as Norm Wilson and Roger
Gottlieb, all scoring pins for
the Judges, Emerson fell with-
out a fight, 29-5, on January 16.
The matmen followed tliis suc-
cess with a tough 20-18 win
over Leicester here on Satur-
day. Falls occurred at every
weight class excepi heavy-
weight in this match, with
Brandeis coming out on top
through the work of Ron Wein-
ger, Joe DeMuro, Gottlieb and
Lerman, all of whom scored 5-
point wins.

Earlier in the month of Janu-

ary, the matmen were defeated
by W.P.I, and Boston College.
Bob Lorman's victory in the
opening match averted a shut-
out as W.P.I, whipped the
Judges 29-3 at Worcester.
Despite victories by Lerman,
Weinger, DeMuro, and Gott-
lieb, B.C. eked out an 18-16
decision over Brandeis on Jan-
uary 11.

Looking beyond the remain-
ing four matches on the sched-
ule, the wrestlers are preparing
for the New England tourna-
ment at UMass, March 4-6.
Lerman (7-0) and Weinger
(5-2) will wrestle off tc deter-

The Jumbos are led by big
Jim Claffee, a 6-6 sophomore
averaging 20 points per game
and Ron McRobbie. Claffee
and Brandeis star Barry Zim-
merman have been running
neck-and-neck for the runner-
up position to Boston College's
John Austin in the Boston area
scoring race.

Tufts is a young team with
good potential. The Jumbos
have lost the services of Senior
Bill Lewis through sickness
and Soph Ken Neiman, on pro-
bation. Tonight's game could
be the Judges' first win of the
season if Brandeis plays de-
fense and Zimmerman and
Richie Hymoff are back on tar-
get.

The Judges last four losses
have been at the hands of C. W.
Post, St. Michael's, AIC and
Suffolk. At times the Blue &
White have shown the cohesion
and inspiration to win. But
eitlier the opposition has been
too strong or the Judges have
folded.

The script, getting slightly
redundant reads like this:

This was the Judges best game
of the year as they gave a
strong St. Mike's team (14-4)
a good battle before succumbing
(St. Mike's played witliout
their star scorer, Richie Tar-
rant, out with the flu.)

St. Mike's jumped out to an
early lead as Bruce Stryhas
came off the bench to score 14
points in the first half. Bran-
deis trailed after 20 minutes,
30-22. St. Mike's, usually em-
ploying a fast-break offense,
played control basketball and
utilized sharp give-and-go plays
with Dick Falkenbush feeding
the Kryger brothers.

Brandeis played even with
St. Mike's in the second half
as both teams scored 37 points.
The visitors shot 51% from the
floor to the Judges 39% al-
though Brandeis outrebounded
the visitors. Richie Hymoff had
23 and Zimmerman 19 for
Brandeis.

AIC 93 — Brandeis 69. The
less said the better. In a bene-
fit contest for the Waltham
Boys Club, the Judges played
terribly against a poor AIC
team (7-5). The Judges were
behind 47-36 at the half after
enjoying a four-point lead mid-
way through the opening
period. AIC outrebounded
Brandeis 66 to 43 although
both teams were cold from the
floor, shooting 42%. Once again
Brandeis had trouble from the
free throw line, hitting less
than 42%.

High scorers for Brandeis
were Zimmerman with 22 and
Hymoff with 18. For AIC Norm
Lambert and Frank Stranczk
had 20 apiece, while Jim Cal-

The court Judges travel to Medford tonight to face
Tufts University at 8 :30. The Blue & White hope to end
their twelve-game losing streak, longest in Brandeis his-
tory, against a weak Jumbo five. Tufts sports a 3-5 slate
going into this evening's con-

houn contributed 18 points.

Suffolk 78 _ Brandeis 76.
(Double overtime). This was
the turning point for the im-
potent Brandeis squad. The
Judges had the game wrapped
up with 30 seconds to go, lead-
ing by three. But Suffolk man-
aged to hit on a three-point
piay to tie it up at 63-63. The
Judges took the lead in both
overtimes only to have Suffolk
even the score at 72-72 after
five mmutes of overtime and
finally go on to win on a jump
shot by Jim Knox with 15 sec-
onds left in the second extra
period.

Losing to a weak Suffolk
team broke the Judges' will to
win. Brandeis should have run
away with the game but as it
was we handed Suffolk the vic-
tory. The Blue and White shot
a miserable 31% from florr to
Suffolk's 41% but we outre-
bounded the visitors 69 to 60.
Big men for Suffolk were
Jim Knox with 17 and Ron Di-
Ramio with 13. DiRamio kept
Suffolk in contention with key
baskets to tie the game after
regulation time and in the first
overtime. Hymoff had
25 for the Judges and Zimmer-
man 16. Santo Cimino pulled
down 16 rebounds and had
nine points.

Jots and Dashes

Co-Capt. Richie Hymoff has
been selected as a nominee for
the ECAC Team of the Week.
Richie also has been nominated
for an ECAC graduate athletic
scholarship. Hymoff, Brandeis
Athlete of the Week, has been
pacing the Judges since the
midyear break. . . The Judges
are looking forward to next
year already. Brandeis has been
selected to participate in the
LeMoyne Holiday Tourney
next Christmas. Other teams
receiving bids are Fordham,
Williams, St. Lawrence and
host LeMoyne. The bid pre-
sumably came on the merits of
the Judges record in 1957 . . .

The freshmen finally won a
game as they defeated Cape
Cod Community College last
Tuesday, 68-57. Gerry Katz had
15 and Elliot Goldberg 14.
Charlie Novagrodsky has also
made his presence felt. More
on the Frosh later (perhaps
after the BC fiasco).

Another Brandeis team with
an unblemished record, the
Girl's Basketball squad, con-
tinued their winning ways. The
Brand-eis femmes defeated La-
Salle 43-22 after beating Gor-
don by three. The girls are
4-0 and hope to go all the way.

Next Brandeis home basket-
ball game is against Boston
College (Coach Bob Cousy has
John Austin, with a 26 point
average, and a 14-6 records).
The frosh contest starts at 6:15.
BC'c frosh are undefeated.

Council FroposeslPresidential Hopefuls to Debate;

Tripartite Meeting

student Council last week requested a meeting with
Dean of Students Kermit Morrissey and President of the
Faculty Senate Silvan Schweber to discuss the possibilities
of tripartite government.

Council is also working with the Deans to arrange pay-
ment of the student activities fee by the administration
for those students who have

large scholarships or loans and
to arrange alternative hot dish-
es in the dining halls. Although
the Deans of Students have
agreed in principle with Coun-
cil proposals, the details will be
worked out at a meeting this
week.

At a previous meeting last
week with Deans of Students
Morrissey and Leonard Zion,
Student Council President
Steve Mora and Treasurer
Frank Bloch proposed a meet-
ing of students, faculty and ad-
ministration to discuss the
problems of tri-partite govern-
ment. Mora described the

Deans' attitude toward the pro-
posals as "receptive."

Mora hopes the meeting will
form a committee "whose sole
jurisdiction would be the dis-
cussion and final formulation of
a tripartite government." He
stressed that Council will not
abandon its efforts to obtain a
tripartite system for Brandeis.
Council is merely trying to do
this by a different method,
rather than being "sidetracked
t>efore the Ad Committee," ac-
cording to Mora. In the past
the Council dealt with the Ad
Committee when it presented
its tripartite proposals.

The Council also proceeded
to amend the election rules to
permit each candidate for an
executive board office to print
two mimeographed blurbs at
Council expense. In the past
they permitted only one blurb.

A copy of the letter to Dean
Morrissey requesting the three
party meeting is on page two.
The letter to Mr. Schweber is
similar but shorter.

WBRS to Broadcast Encounter

The candidates for President of the Student Council will debate the camnaijrn
issues on radio station WBRS. The debate will be broadcast live from WBRS studioa
at 11:00 p.m Thursday, February ,18. It will be the first encounter of its kind in
Brandeis history. "*

Student Demonstrators Protest
American Policy in Soutlieast Asia

The peace movement in the United States has responded to the bombing raids
on North Vietnam with a continuing series of vigils, hunger strikes and rallies in the
Boston area, at the United Nations, in Washington, D.C., and in dozens of other cities
around the nation.

Brandeis participation has been extensive in the Boston and Washington ac-
tions, and will continue during the coming weekend.

Within two hours after the official announcement of the air attack against
bases in North Vietnam on Saturday, 150 persons picketed outside the UN, demanding
an immediate end to the war in Vietnam and solution of related problems through the
United Nations. The next day over 300 people took part in the demonstration at the
UN and by last Saturday the ~ ~~ —

Boston Area

Boston area demonstration
began on Tuesday and con-
tinued daily through the week-
end, Tuesday's march through
Cambridge was followed on
Wednesday by a vigil on Bos-
ton Common which offered a
pacifist appraisal of the situa-
tion in Vietnam. The Commit-
tee for Nonviolent Action and
Student Peace Union were the
official sponsors of the vigil
which drew nearly a hundred
participants, including about
forty from Brandeis.

On Thursday, the focus of
Boston peace activity shifted to
the Brandeis campus where
more than 550 students and
faculty attended a rally calling
for an end to the war in Viet-
nam. (See Bob Acker's story
on page three for a report on
the largest of the Boston meet-
ings).

Harvard staged a repetition
of the march through the
Square and Yard on Thur.sday,
drawing about 150 despite the
freezing rain.

Saturday shoppers found a
well-disciplined line of 300 stu-
dents circling slowly in the
Boston Common at Park Street.
The placards called for U.S.
withdrawal from Vietnam and
peace negotiations. A much
smaller group of opposition
pickets bore signs saying
"Brinkmanship not Chicken-
ship." Among those on the
peace line were about forty
Brandoisians, many of whom
had been brought by chartered
bus.

Washington

In Washington, constant
pickets have been maintained
in front of the White House by
Fellowship House and Wom-
en's Strike for Peace since the
bombings. Five car-loads of
Brandeis students took the
eleven-hour trip to Washington
Friday night to join the pick-
ets at the White House and at
the main entrance to the Penta-
gon. The Brandeis contingent
made up about half of each of _._^^- .„ .
the demonstrations which were I Vietnam."

A student was violently at-
tacked on camput' Sunday
night. The boy, Stuart (Stubsy)
Forster '68, was assaulted by
three unidentified persons near
the chapels. He was admitted to
Waltham Hospital and is in
"good" condition.

Forster a resident of Shapiro
A, was enroute to North quad-
rangle at about 7:15 p.m. when,
according to the official report
from the Dean of Students Of-
fice, "he was assaulted by three
unidentified boys. One tapped
him on the shoulder and as he
turned two fist blows struck
his lower abdomen. He lost
consciousness and was lying on
the road for ten to fifteen
minutes before security re-
ceived a report." He was in
"acute pain." Stuart later told
his roommate that he was "not
feeling bad." He may have a

scheduled as preliminaries for
much larger ones the coming
weekend, when national organ-
izations expect to draw thou-
sands to the capital.

A group of students at George
Washington University in the
capital initiated a hunger-
strike. Since last Wednesday
students in the strike have gone
with no food except water and
salt tablets for periods of at
least two days each. To main-
tain the size of the fasting
group, a participant breaks his
fast only when another hunger-
striker replaces him. The Wash-
ington group has asked for par-
allel demonstrations through-
out the country. Five hunger-
strikers in the doorway of the
United States Mission to the
U.N. in New York have been
fasting since Thursday in re-
spon.so to the call. Marian Rosen
(TW 3-9497) is endeavoring to
extend the strike to Brandeis.
The organizers of the fast say
that it will continue until "the
United States shows signs of
stopping its bombings of North

chipped bone and a damaged
spleen.

A spokesman for the Dean of
Students Office noted that the
incident must be the beginning
of a new attempt to improve
relations with Waltham, as it is
felt that Forster was attacked
I by boys from the town. "This
is the occasion," he said,
"where we're reaching out to
students to create a positive
program fto help the town)."

Yesterday, Dean of Students
Kermit Morrissey stated, "We
are meeting urgently," "It's a
different ball game now". Pres-
ident Abram Sachar, Dean Mor-
rissey and Dean Zion met
yesterday to discuss the situa-
tion.

post have been invited to par-
ticipate by the station.

The format of the de»>ale
closely follows that of the
"Great Debates" of 1960. Each
candidate will present an open-
ing statement of five minutes.
Questions from Chuck Bres-
ler '65, Mitch Goldman '66,
and Bob Greenberg '67 will
follow. The questions will be
directed to each candidate in
turn and each will then be able
to respond to the other's
answer. There will be no di-
rect exchange between the can-
didates themselves. At the end
each will make a short closing
remark. The time limit is flexi-
ble, though Don Miri.sch, who is
in charge of the program,
hopes that it will take from
an hour to ninety minutes.

In proposing the debate
Evans told the other candi-
dates, "I sincerely hope that
you will . . . appear on this
program, in order that all stu-
dents may have the oppor-
tunity to make the most intel-
ligent choice in the coming
elections."

Bert Foer wrote to Mirisch,
"I am amenable to Elliott's
prof>osal for a Great Debate,
despite my managers' prefer-
ence that I appear on television.
May my dog, Checkers, accom-
pany me to the studio?"

Because the debate was
scheduled last week before the
deadline for name submission
for Student Council President,
the station urges any candidate
who has not yet announced hi.*?
intention to run to contact I>on
Miri.sch. so that they may be in-
cluded in the program.

Campus A.D.A. Group
Plans Initial Function

A Brandeis chapter of Oampu.s American.s for Demo-
cratic Action has been formed and will hold its first un-
official function on Saturday eveninjjf, February 20, in
Boston. The club held its organizational meetin^^ yesterday.

Campus A.D.A., whose parent organization is the
Americans for Democratic Action, is a liberal political
group of college students. It*

adheres to the political philos-
ophy of the regular AD. A. and
is active in such fields as civil
liberties, civil rights, public
welfare, and the quest for
peace.

The function will be an ex-
cursion to Boston to hear the
after-dinner speakers at the
Hotel Sheraton-Plaza as a part
of the Massachusetts A.D.A.'s
Roosevelt Day ceremonies. The
speakers will be John Rock,
M.D., the discoverer of the
birth control pill, and Senator
George McGovern (D.-S.D.), a
former director of the Food for
Peace program. The topic of
the speeches is "The Great So-
ciety: Central Issues."

Brandeis faculty members
who are sponsors of the dinner

are John P. Roche, chairman of
the Politics Department and
Lawrence Fuchs of the Arnor-
ican Civilization Department.
(Mr. Roche, wiio is national
chairman of ADA., is the fac-
ulty advisor to the Brandeis
chapter.) The dinner costs
$7.50 per per.son, but members
can come after 8:00 to hear the
speakers at a cost of $.50.

The Brandeis chapter of
CAD. A. hopes to bring at
least one important notional
figure to address it before the
year is finished.

Members of C.A.D.A. re-
ceives all of the benefits of t'le
regular A.D.A., including a
free .sub.scription to the weekly
and monthly bulletins from
Washington and New York.

Vietnam

We have postponed the second part of our Statement
of Principles in order to express our concern rtKarding
the ^rowin^ crisis in Vietnam. In consideration ol the im-
porlance of the Vietnam issue, we have made an attempt
to briiiK it to the attention of the Krandeis community.
By devotinj? this editorial and three other Justice articles
U) this issue, it is our hojx? to stimulate on cam])us in-
creased thought and actiun: action directed against our
j(overnment's growing military participation in the con-
iiicts of Southeast Asia.

Reported interviews with Senators and Congressmen
during the last week made it unmistakably clear that our
continued presence in Vietnam is not at all based on argu-
ments relevant to the Vietnamese. We are fighting to
uphold an image. We are fighting to maintain our quickly
failing prestige. Ironically (and unfortunately lor all con-
cerned), the more we fight, the more we lose.

The few public opinion p()lls loearing on foreign policy
which have been released during the last two months have
all shown public sentiment to be against the policy now
being purvued. The American public does not favor the Gov-
♦Tnmems increasing commitment in terms of arms and men
that has characterized ilfc activities, particularly m the last
lour weeks.

For the povernment to delude the American publK? into be-
lieving that we are fighting a battle ior 'truth, justice and the
American way," is at best hypocritical, and at worst cnmmal.

American attacks on North Vietnam seriously threaten a
further escalation ol tlie conflict. Following the attacks, Red
Chma arnounced its intention to send "volunteers" to assist the
Viet Cong lorres. South Korea has also committed a portion of
her armed forces to the struggle. lUndiines such as "160 Amc ri-
cans and Vietnamese Planes Attack North Vietnamese Bases:
US. Wishes To Limit War" (frt.m a recent New York Times)
clearly show the inherent contradictions ol our policy.

Such escalation will help heal the .split between Russia and
Communist China. This is another sclf-deteating eflect ol our
rasli actions.

Wv feel these points indicate first, that the goal of our policy
should be to get out of the ct-nflict as soon as possible, and
second, that student protest must be directed towards such a
policy revision.

The following organized means arc open to Brandeis stu-
dents. On February 20 there will be a mass demonstration in
Wasliington. D.C. Erandeis students are chartering a bus winch
leaves Friday night and which will be in Washington on Satur-
day It will cost between $8-$14 per student. Those interested
should contact either Barry Pomerantz (TW 3-9268) or Paulette
Jellinek ( TW 3-9784). There has also been some talk of a
hunger-strike on campus. For information abf>ut this, people
should get in touch with Marian Rosen ( TW 3-9497). Oppor-
tunities for individual action are also available. One can call
the White House (202-456-1414) or the House and Senate offices
(202-224-3121 ) per.son-to-person for $1.70. You will be charged
for the call only if you gel through to whomever it is you are
trying to reach. A "public opinion message" can be sent to the
President by calling Western Union. You are allowed fifteen
Vords in a telegram which costs about a dollar.

Letter to Dean Mom'ssey

I>€ar Dean Morrissey,

In October of this year the Student Council, for the first
time introduced in written form its plan for a Brandeis tri-
partite government. This plan was an ideal conce^ption but was
presented in order 1o air certain ideas and to make tripartite
government the leading order of business in student, fatuity,
and aelministrative relations. This plan was suggested to the
Administrative Committee of the Faculty in December. Acting
upon our proposal, the Ad Ct^mmilte'c delivered a counter-
proposal. This proposal recommended that the Student Council
•be permitted to discuss any important problems with the Ad
Committee'. Though this wns seen as a foiward step, it fell
far short ol the hopes and goals of the Brandeis student body.

It is our feeling, that fuillur discussion may enable us to
develop a tripartite government which will more adecjuately
dir(>ct itself to the problems of the Brandeis campus than either
©f the two pre)posiils thus far presenteti.

Therefore, in lini' with our earlier discussions of this week.
wc would like to join with the administration and the faculty
in a three party conference, whose sole jurisdiction will be
discussion and creation of a tripartite system.

Wc feel that five students are nect^ssary to represent the
student body, and thus we suggest a similar number of faculty
members and administration members to attend the conference.
A similar letter has been addressed to IVlr. Schwc>^ber in order
that we might be able to join with faculty members in this
important conference.

Sincerely:

Steven Mora

for our

Council

Since two other candidates
have made statements lor the
Justice, 1 would like to state
my positions and objectives as
a candidate for the presidency
of the Student Union. The role
of Student Council is to initiate
and carry out programs bene-
ficial to the Student Body and
to represent student opinion
and interests in the University.
Dynamic council leadership can
help develop these programs

is handle^d
council itself through debate of
specific issues. Council needs firmly believed
more precise machinery for can gain acceptance
working with the constitution, ideas. 1 feel that ^^
so that many of the conflicts of should spend time forniul"t
this past year could have been precise policies which it' r^
avoided or settled more reason- and should defend. This eo

placed a specific rule, the rule scholarship extension for St
should be enforced or modified dent Activities Fee plan t h"'
to fit current problems. Where acceptance of Student Council'^
tradition is accepted but in- housing program, and the Din
foimal, rules of procedure ing Hall accommodation pro'

gram, as well as many joint

and can inspire to implement jjhould be established for clarity

student plans and ideas. Aside ^^^ efficiency. The acrimonious eflorts with the Administration

debate over the freshman elec- on financial matters through
ticn would have been "" - -

from the large administrative
task of directing the social and
cultural programs, the student
council must also set the policy
for such programs and the
policies e)f the Student Union as
an indt^pendent body.

The administrative function
of council is to a large extent
financial. Once ce)uncii has col-
lected the Activities Fee. it is
responsible for dividing its e^co-
nomic resources among t h e
many clubs and committees.
However council's administra-
tive role in the clubs and com-
mittee's is not simply to pay the
bills. Through the executive
board and the president's office,
time and effort must be deve)ted
to provide momentum, coordin-
ation and effectiveness to these
organizations.

Council activity ceases to be
administrative when specific
budgeting affects the direction
and purpose of an organization.
Last year council redirected the
social program by making a
sizeable portion of the social
budget available exclusively
for dorm-centered social func-
tions. This system attempted to

unneces-
sary if the rules had been re-
\ iewed and followed as a nor-
mal part of council business.

In general matters of stu-
dents and the University, policy
should be set by council accord-
ing to the consensus of student
opinion, and it must be worked
out clearly in anticipation of
I hanging conditions in the Uni-
versity to support and repre-
sent student opinion. Commit-
tees exist for studying campus
problems but they Tre too often
inactive until it is too late for
them to be usc^ful. The presi-
dent must coordinate t li e s e
committees and press them to
function regularly. The admin-
istration is too often concerne'd
with problems of University
finance, with its social reputa-
tion, and with "master plans"
e>f the far-distant future to be
pioperly concerned with stu-
dent life and opinions. When
the administration decides a

my office as Student C o u n cl I
Treasurer.

Irfeas for improvement are
much easier to find than the
people who will make practical
programs from them. The pics-
ident must be able to get peo-
ple to work and to lead that
work. I am able to see a pian
through to completion, as evi-
denced by my work setting up
and carrying out the collection
of the Student Activities Fee
and the successful establish-
ment of an independent Stu-
dent Council Treasury. The
colkH-tion of the Student Activi-
ties Fee was hampe*red this
year by the necessity for hur-
ried planning. From this ex-
perience 1 have come to re-alize
the time necessary for planning
and executing a program 1 in-
tend to use the time available
in the spring and the summer
to plan for the coming year so
that Council's activities will be
in full swing by Septeml3er.

My idea of the presidency of
Student Council is centered on
careful planning and regular
attention to the details of or-
ganization. 1 would like the
Student Council to be the irue
representative of the student
body. In order to be an elleetive
voice for the Student Union,
council needs creative hader-
siiip and the support ol the
students. Student Councils
ultimate goal is to be acceplcd
as a responsible force in the

on

social bureau.

Student Council must work
on two kinds of policy, those
that concern the operation of

those that have to do with
general questions of s t u d e n t
life and the University. In the
former area, policy not dealing
specifically with constitutional

and action and we must hold
our principles firm]y.

In many cases, the Student
Council and the Administration
are working toward common
goals, and it is the job e>f the
PKsident to make such co-
operation most fruitful. The
success of our cooperation with
the Administration on many

lows us a good opportunilv to
achieve this goal. The pre sidont
of Student Council is responsi-
ble to a large extent for the
effectiveness e)f our sysunv I
feel that I understand the prob-
lems and possibilities of this
system and the Student C«"n-
cil's position in the UnixiiMiy,
and that 1 can u.se the position
of president eflectively.

Bert Foer:

La.st week I suggested that as your next Stu-
dent Ce)uncil president, 1 would be willing to
utilize any means which would work for the
best interest of the student body, that is. to
establish a truly liberal university and at the
same time to bring about the best living condi-
tions possible. This amounts to saying that al-
though revolution might at a certain point be
our best policy, there are also other policies
which an imaginative and pragmatic Council
ought to pursue. The ideas which I am going
to outline sketchily are doubtlessly trivial, when
placed next to issues of power structure, aca-
demic freedom or individual autonomy; but it
is only by spending a good share of its time and
energy on such ideas that Council can improve
"the human condition " at Brandeis I propose
that the next Council undertake the following
activities.

1. Bre)aden our inter-collegiate relations. Host
a seminar of student council presidents from
selected "liberal" institutions, to discuss te.pics
e)f common interest. New ideas for us. Draw us
closer to our collegiate kin, whose assistance
we will very likely need if we are to realize a
more ideal university.

2. Improve" Faculty Associates Program. In-
troduce the Indiana University plan, dorms in-
vite a small number of faculty members to be
specially associated with the dorm. Facilitate
dorms setting up informal discussion series on
set topic (faculty need not be from this school).
Facilitate faculty invitations to students. Defi-
nite ne^ed for Council leadership in this whole
area of increasing extra-curricular interaction
betwe'en faculty and .Mudents.

3. Greater use of Student Service Bureau.
Bring te)p entertainment, e.g. of!-Broadway
plays, to campus. Tickets and transportation
for operas, symphonies, theatres, ball games,
etc. in Boston and Cambridge Odd je)bs bureau!
Discount program with merchants, restaurants!
entertainment spots. Best way of expanding
activities on campus without abolishrng Student

on captured secret documents
and other inside information
which the government has not
seen fit, as of yet, to disclose
to the American public. The
facts, as can be garnered from
our controlled news media,
hardly lend themselves to this
interpretation. The
have been taking their war
seriously and planning it from
the base up. Soon after the
Geneva accords of 1954, wc had
the opportunity to start an
economic program that would
win the peasants to our side by
tangible agricultural reforms
and development. But our
policy was one of gestures and
not that of coming to grips with
thj situation.

The terrorists in "Vietnam
now are the Americans. It is
they who kill indiscriminately;
it is they who support a sup-
pressive regime. When t h e
Vietcong killed local officials,
they made it quite clear that
thi.i was because of proven

sympathy for Saigon Further
more, they confiscated land run
on a sharecropping system and
redistributed it among the peas-
ants, they organized the peo-
ple locally. The United States
burns villages because there
might be Vietcong there.

People are uprooted from the
land and moved to bad areas
where promises of support are
not followed through. Hate is
created, and young sons go to
join the rebels.

Ho Chi Minh, in his book on
guerilla warfare outlined the
strategy he used against the
French: the same strategy that
is now being used in South
"Vietnam. It involves intensive
organization and securing of a
local base. Gradually, the units
used become larger and engage
more often in open warfare —
which is precisely what the
Vietcong is doing now. They
learn fast. When the helicopters
were first introduced they were

flustered, until they saw that
these could be shot down. Now
they are beginning to strike at
the backbone of the South
Vietnamese army — the 23,000
U.S. military "advisors."

The wire services report that
"The White House attributed
this retaliation to intensified
Vietcong Vietcong activity in the South."
In other words, it is wrong for
the enemy to fight back; we
want to conduct the war on
our terms. American soldiers
are not to be touched; we must
show the enemy that we will
not let them strip us of our ad-
vantage. The fact is that we do
not care how many Vietnamese
are killed (nor whether or not
they were really Vietcong),
just so long as our boys aren't
harmed. We want them also to
believe our myths. Any death
is bad enough — but as Dr.
Lubasz suggested Thursday
night, there is a strongly racial
tingc^ to this one-sided concern.
79.000 Vietnamese have been
killed in this war, and before
them, 240,000 in the Indo-
Chinese War.

A group of students at
George Washington University
in the capital initiated a hun-
ger-strike. Since last Wednes-
(iay students in the strike have
gone with no food except water
and salt tablets for peric^ds of
at least two days each. To
maintain the size of the fasting
group, a participant breaks his
fast only when another hunger-
striker replaces him. The Wash-
ington group has asked
for parallel demonstrations
throughout the country. Five
hunger-strikers in the doorway
of the United States Mission to
the U.N. in New York have
been fasting since Thursday in
response to the call. Marian
Rosen (TW 3-9497) is endeav-
oring to extend the strike to
Brandeis. The organizers of the
fast say that it will continue
until "the United States shows
signs of stopping its bombings
of North Vietnam."

After the talks, a petition of
protest including more than
400 signatures was sent to

President Johnson. Money col- pointed out, however, that the

The talking down took three strength,
separate forms, each enclosed
within the next like the child's
game of boxes. There was, first,
the reK-ent policy of escalating
the war from South Vietnam to
all of Vietnam; second, the con-
duct of the war itself; third,
the American global policies
of which this Vietnam war is
a part

Frustration to Escalation

Dr. Lubasz spoke mainly to
the first point. Judging both
by the well-precedented Viet-
cong attack that supposedly
caused the American "retalia-
tory" airstrikes, and by the
"vastly disproportionate" char-
acter of that response, this
crisis was "manufactured" by
t h e American government.
Thus, besides the American in-
stigation of the crisi.s, accord-
ing to Lubasz, "this is escala-
tion and we are doing it ". Fur-

The larger aspect of the air
strikes, that of their reflection
of American failure in the
South Vietnamese war, was
laterally touched on by Dr.
Coser and by Steve Amdur of
the Student Peace Union. This
failure has a comparatively
simple cause: the disaffection
of tire great mass of Vietnamese
from the Saigon government
and from its American sup-
porters, brought about by the
ravenous character of that
government and by the unwill-
ingness of the Americans to
change that character until un-
willingness became inability.
Thus, in IQoS, the Americans
sponsored "one of the only
land reform programs in his-
tory that gave land back to the
landlords". The disaffection of
the peasants dooms the Am-

erican war effort on the
thermore, this warlike and per- ground, the only choices are
haps decisive step was irres- to gel out or to escalate. The
ponsibly done in a double American GovernmcMit ap-
sense, both becau.se t'hi.s course parentlv preferred the latter

was decided without popular
concurence, and because, in
Washington, "they want lo see
something hapj>en and they
don't care what it is". In other
words, escalation was a reflec-
tion of the American govern-
ment's frustration at losing the
war on the ground in South
Vietnam. These general char-
acteristics of American res-
ponsibility for the crisis, Am-
erican irresponsibility within
it. and its sources in American
weakness and frustration were
sounded by most of the rest of
the speakers.

One of the American Gov-
ernment's justifications of the
attacks stated that we could
better negotiate with the Com-
munists from a position of

In the final balloting, less than

Saperia sites lack of publicity
given the election, and timing
as reasons for the unimpressive
turnout which numbered only
about 200. The figures seem to
confirm Miller's primary con-
tention, that "the majority of
the class is a-polilical."
Yet, one fact belies this opinion
— Larry Miller's election.

Miller admits to having been
the most "liberal" candidate
running in the election. Among

went to the astonished Council
with their proposal. Bitter de-
bate ensueel, and the case was
taken to the Student Board of
Review. SBR upheld the fresh-
man view and soon candidates
were writing speeches.

■'We know where the power

lied too many times!" He, too,

believed in negotiation, but he

was willing to fight, if talking certain basic principles and

failed. No wonder Steve Mora not irresponsible radicals

conservative elected Larry
Miller!

Freshmen have been at Bran-
deis for four months, and no
one, as yet, feels able to sense
the general opinions of the
class. However, some, like
Miller, seem to see subtle
changes appearing in freshmen
ideas. Others, like Saperia, look
to the March elections for in-
dications to appear of the class*
political metamorphosis, if one
exists. No election can deter-
mine whether the freshmen
have discovered the views that
have animated past protests,
and have adopted them for
their own. Only a crisis here
can demonstrate that.

would afford us. Dr. Coser only by "peaceful competition,"

that is, in forms of economics.

The present American policy,

on the other hand, is "insane"

and "suicidal."

The Consequences

Most of the speakers charac-
terized the policies of the Am-
erican government in Vietnam
in general, and specifically last
we»ek's activities, in ternii
either of insanity or of crimi-
nality. Its motives were of the
worst sort, grounded in fear
and weakness and with resuiti
far more likely to yield more
war then the establisliment of
negotiations. (As a last result
we se^e in Sundays Times that
the new Vietnam policy hai
succec^ded in doing what five
years of effort on the part ot
the Communists could not do.
It has brought Russia and
China closer together.)

There were even more far-
ranging conclusions implicit in
the content of (he talks. Fii.^t
of all. an application of what
may be called "the law of
drift " is visible in Vietnam: j
do-nothing policy, as time
passes, decreases the number of
alternatives of action. Our pol-
icy of quietism, odd as it seenii
in retrospect, toward the gov-
ernments of South Vietnam haj
cost us the war on the ground,
and left us with the choices of
escalation, defeat, or with-
drawal. Because of our desire
to hold on to what we have
left of East Asia, we will not
withdraw, nor do we wish td
be defeated. Thus the escala-
tion.

Why, then, did the Americaa
government support a rapa-
cious puppet, and why will we
not let go? It is because we
have no choice but to favor
the status quo. The American
international market now in-
cludes, either directly or in-
directly, practically everything
ownable; and we live on it.
Thus, do we follow a quietislic
policy toward any anti-com-
munist government: we ar\»
afraid to rock the boat. Thus
do we hang in at any cost.

The outlook is unfavorable
in the extreme American pedi-
cles, in general, alienate the
jK)pulations of the underde-
velofx'd areas. There will be
more local wars in Asia. Africa,
and Latin America Again, we
will lose these wars on the
ground; again, we will have t«>
escalate or get out. One of
these times, one may imagine',
we will escalate a bit too far.
The only alternative is the
radical revision of present Am-
erican foreign policies.

One of the many re^suUs of
this policy i.s that its true na-
ture can on no account be re»-
vealed t<j the people. Tlun
comes the irresponsibility of the
decision-making process that
Profs. Lubasz, Coser and M ac-
cuse referred to; thus comeJ
the alienation of the people
and the government, and lUui
comes the climate of fear
within America that Dr. Mar-
cuse talked about Finally, thij
is the .source of the hopelcv^.s-
ness and unwillingness to act
that resulted in, among other
things, the exit of nearly half
of the ,'j60 people after the
talks; it al.so accounts for the
low turn-out at the Boston
Common and Washington pro-
test meetings.

(Afterword: this low turn-
out was, predictably enough, in
a sense well-ad"ise»d. Someone

course.

This negative and dangerous
course was de^cided on irres-
ponsibly without the concur-
rence of any popular represen-
tatives, and justified by a
species of nonsense so low
that, to Prof. Coser, it could
only refleK't "the government's
contempt for the intelligence
of the American people."

Imperialism in our Time

According to Prof. Marcuse,
the policy that will "fight com-
munism wherever it finds it"
defines American national in-
terest in global terms, or. in
other we)rds, imperialistically.
Furthermore, the examples of
Cuba and Vietnam show that a
policy of fighting communism

of the machine and stop it"
We read Justice editorials, and,
though sometimes we disagreed,

content with the situation as it

slogan of FeilTer's radical mid-

Larry Miller will run again.

EDITOR'S NOTE: This ia a segment of a manuscript.

Brother Neill Daniele, late of the East coast, confronted
the continental end awhile before Thanksgiving of Year
1963. getting broke quickly. Finally in San Francisco, he
had inadmissable hopes that this must represent some
sort of journey's end- Whether or no, at least he managed
to< sneak a free ride up Powell Street. Then it was back in
the beginning rains again, wandering through the dis-
located streets- San Frisco in its rainy season all damp
chilly horror for the destitute. Shaggy Neill blended right
in with the North Beach scenery, except for an innocent
face- and that mostly obscured, in the glommy gloom.

In the Hot Dog Palace at Columbus Grant and Broadway there
are always lots motheaten mangy types flopping around and
spending no money; it's a rutting hole for the lower-class
remnants of the San Francisco Beat. So Neill naturally wan-
dered m too, and with a few miserable shivers settled into the
routine. That's a round of scrounging cigarets, lifting up your
feet for the floor to be swept under them, getting free water,
leaking in the John. Weekend nights the cops come in and
check identifications for no good reason, or the inhabitants go
on the street awhile to panhandle. Those streets burble with
little neon signis where the nightclubs and jazzclubs and res-
taurants sit behind the sidewalks, and Chinatown Chinese are
mixed in with suited saturday-night people and intellects and
bums. Aside from panhandling the only other thing that Palace
people do is go flop in their little residenee-hotel rooni^ and
play chess or the jukebox. And much time spent looking
blankly out the piate window.

Neill drank water and lifted his feet and played chess. It was
a Friday night he requisitioned a set from the oxish counter-
girl ana went around looking for a game. One scrawny person
sitting in the jukebox comer yipped out "Yeah Yeah ' and
Neill brought the set over- "Glad to meetcha," he said in a
chummy hitchhiker's way. "Do you play well? I don't, really."
"Yeah Yeah" the guy said. Close up he looked peevish and
still scrawny. So Neill went on brightly,

"Been living in San Francisco long?" His partner more or lea*
accidently knocked the men off the table; Neill scrunched
himjielf under the table to pick them out from the cigaret butU
and soggy napkins. Up above he heard "Dixie" whistled off
key. and the foot by his right ear started stomping on a black
pawn. Eventually Neill squirmed back to surface level.
"My name's Neill,'* he said, brightly as ever; for he was quite
past caring, for a long time now.

"Awright. awright. so my name in Deejay. All I want is a room
somewhere," the other said.
"Huh."

"With lots of hair."

"Urn," Neill mumbled, thinking. This is getting us nowhere-
saying. "We don't really need that pawn anyway, we can sub-
stitute for it later- if you really want to play, that is."
"Yeah Yeah" Deejay said, and they played it. The game: P-K4,

tiest game I ever played let's forget it" shoved the set, board
and men, over on tiie floor. 'And I ooii t care if you had a pawn
up^ on me, see? Shaddup!" Of course Neill wasn't about to say
anything anyway. Deejay went ranting on "I know who you
are, don't think you can fool me boy, hooooo, 1 know what
your game is. Get a pawn up on me, huh% I know you fella
but get this. I'm not s^oing back, not in a hundred years, under-
stan, not mo hah hooooo doc nosir!"

"But I don't know what you're talking about," Neill put in.
"Look forget it, forget it, we know where we stand, Hooooo."
A skinny catatonic went swimming his way through the Palace-
"Hey Magoo! Hey." Deejay yelled.

"Uumin, Deejay, Uuummin," Magoo mumbled and kept swim-
ming on out again.

"Well, so long,' Neill said, having decided it was time to go.
"Hey, where" re you going, sit down, " Deejay said, "What's your
name?"

"Uh, my name's Neill."

"Hoooo. That was Magoo Mandelowitz, very good friend of
mine.You just get here? You got a place to stay? What're you
doin around here man? Want some crystals, good price? Got
any money? Know anybody?" Neill couldn't answer so Deejay
went on "Cops after you- you on the lam? uh? What'd you do
before you came here, um, Neill."

"Weil," Neill said, "I taught highschool for a while . . . and I
was in a monastery for a while . . . and I've been wandering
around for a wliile . . . "

*'Uh-huh. Yeah. Yeah." Deejay mumbled. There they were, and
they had,in the most classical sense, nothing to say to each other.
"Monk. Yeah. Hey if you don't have any money how long's it
been since you eaten anything?"

"Well, a couple of days I guess," said Neill, though it mightn't
have been strictly true.

"Days! Wow! How can you stand it! Wow! I understand! Youre

Intelligent conversations — I had more in-
telligent conversations in my w'ight weeks in
the Berkshires than most professors liave dur-
ing their academic careers. And usually, the
more intelligent the conversations were, the
more simple they were, the more basic. And
the more intelligent they grew the less I found
myself talking from my mind, and the more I
found myself talking from the heart. They
were remarkable these summer conversations.
Remarkable for their simplicity, for purity, for
ttieir lack of corruption and perversion. They
were musical, too. They were rather like De-
bussy, tranquil, lambent, utterly peaceful, never
a harsh note, never a dissonance, always milky,
ftlmy, wrapped in gauze, always lake water
and stars and the frozen glow of the moon,
always blue gills and islands and running rain-
drops, always sand castles with pink tulips fly-
ing from them, never neurosy, never a shady
figure — a shadow dancing in the forest run-
ning after you with a knife, never any of this
nonsense — that is only once, and that was with
Margie.

With Margie lying do^vn in tlie graveyard,
listening to her tell me stories long hidden and
forbidden, listening to her tell me of the sister
whose beauty she is jealous of, of her mother,
the singer, t^e nymphomaniac, the hypochon-
driac, the dipsomaniac, of her grandmother who
she ha.sn't seen in fifteen years who is rotting
away in some asylum in California. And then
we would stop to kiss, to kiss over your dirty
corpse perhaps, and then Margie wotild take
another drink, and light up a fresh cigarette,
her 57th of the evening, and we would talk
about the impressionists, or may^ it was about
her suicide attempt. And then it was a week
later and we are still in the graveyard and we
.see Abby and Barlow walking, and we yell out
weird ghost calls to scare them and it works,
and we laugh about this, but my pleasure is
short lived.

I am restless and afraid. Don't you know I
am recovering now from a deep hurt suffered
just one month ago? I do not like you Margie
and I am also afraid. I Io.st too much of my
youth a little while back with the one who hurt
me. now I don't want to hear your dark and
chilling stories. To me they are just so much
horseshit not to be endured.

An hour later. We are sitting on the porch
of the people you work for. You are a mother's
helper and you take care of their little kid
Jaime. You love Jaime, but when you see me
kiss her head and fondle her, you think that
is a little off color. We are sitting on your porch,
listening to the crickets swoon, to the dogs bark.
Little Johnny Panusavitch runs across the lawn
with his friends. You tell me that he is a ter-
rific painter, but that he is ashamed of his gift.
But now I want to see your opus, I want to know
if you really do paint. I want to know if you
are a fraud. I showed you the book I wrote,
that was a kind of proof, now you must show me
your paintings. But you don't want to. Your
good ones are at home, you don't like what you
have with you, I am begging you to show me
so you finally disappear into the house and
when you come out again you have your port-
folio — you, and your fat black eyes are danc-
ing. I like your work, especially one oi a col-

ored boy and girl fishing by a bridge, with some
birds flying in the background. I ask you if I
can have it and you kiss me. You tell me that
the picture is called "What love is ubout."

But now it is over and I have nothing el.se to
say to you I can think of nothing to say. You
are older than me and I can't relax, and laugh,
and be a baby. I tell you now of the fight I
just had with my mother. (Your eyes show
pity.) I tell you that I must go home now and
make up with her and that I will return in one
hour. (You nod your big round head.) I take
the picture and put it under my jacket, for out-
side a light rain is falling. Walking slowly over
the dark wet grass, I begin to go uphill towards
Sandy's place. I turn the corner and run. I
am free, liberated on my own. I run fast to-
wards Sandy's. Wherever Sandy goes he Ukes
with him a pack of cards, a bottle of gin, and
Tropic of Cancer. Sandy was the first hedoni.st
I ever met, even more of a hedonist than Gene.
His lack of concern for the state of the world
was saintly. His di.sinterest in education, poli-
tics, and the future of man was profound. With.
Sandy I had the best fun of my life. The beau-
tiful thing was that whenever he was happy
he -said so. and what's more he smiled, he
laughed, he gurgled. He was 3 skinny sh^^rt lit-
tle Jewish boy with dark hair and eyes, a lonif
thin nose and protruding tt»eth When he smiled,
the smile took up half his face Yet I thotjght
him good looking. Everyone liked Sandy; he
was the idol of the little kids around the Shove,
and everyone liked his family too.

It was very hard to have a bad time with
Sandy. He is the person everyone likes to have
at his party. With Sandy I had feasts and r>»r-
ties, we wont to Birdland together, we went
and saw Monk toaother. and on that night
when my old friend Dennis dropped in on me
unexpectedly (without cn.4i of course). Sandy
who had just been introduced to him paid his
way for the concert without a second thougtit.

With Sandy I played badminton, and went
swimming With .Sandy f rrm off to Atlantic
City to play with those gargantuan waves And
there, riding with the waves, crashing with the
brerikors, nmnim? along the sand laughing,
walking alone the boardwalk lau[;hing while

Time and Content in the Film

\

Time, in terms of art, is tiie irrelevant abso-
lute. Time to the real content of an art form
has generally no relation, since the art form
exists as a closed system, as a finished conscious-
ness — and, closed and finished on our own
terms. Time, as the absent identity of any dura-
tional form, exists therefore in a context other
than the form's strictly "present" context; but
where these two contexts are dramatically
juxtaposed — or where the artist effectively in-
terposes Time into a form — they become mo-
mentarily the same context, or one reality; they
are, then, dramatically irrelevant, and thus
highly relevant to each other.

Where are such instances most apt? If lit-
erature— of the art forms involving duration as
opposed to, or in addition to, space — represents
the dimension of what cannot be seen, motion
pictures represent a dimension of what can be
seen. Literature is assumably the more valuable
art, perhaps because it is the more obviously
closed system (i.e.. in control of the creating ef-
fort and the resulting response). Whereas the
medium of literature represents a necessity, the
medium of motion pictures represents an inven-
tion. To some people, the latter is a bastard of
the former, or at least a difluse concoction of
various arts and non-arts. Really, the differ-
ences between literature and motion pictures
are more elusive, and perhaps illusive, to de-
scribe than may seem at first. (Add the inter-
mediary of the theatre and you have an even
more involved problem of differences.) If of
the two, however, literature is the more closed
system and consequently the more controlled,
it also does not admit the dramatic irrele-
Vancies of content as easily or as well as do
motion pictures. The literary work is, say, the
duration and the imagined (or ideational)
sipace, but the film is the duration and the evi-
dent space. It is also (post 1930 or so) evident
sound. A Cinerama movie a few years back,
1 believe, even included filling the theatre with
appropriate and finely calculated odors at the
proper moments. The picture was popularly
unsuccessful, served as no precedent — and was,
I daresay, cinematically fallacious. The 3-D
concept is similarly mistaken I think. The film
form is, after all, not a receptacle for the dem-
onstration of variously associated senses, but
(potentially) a particular context of carefully
balanced ideas and feelings. Art is not intended
to reproduce life but to understand it; and so
the art form is not a facsimile of life but a
simulacrum of it.

The film, then, has these added dimensions at
its disposal: sound and evident space (a space
that can be presented from variable and unlim-
ited view-points, and from the various senses
of "double-exposure"), the independence of this
space and sound, and the cross-relations of these
potentially independent elements (In literature,
say, this independence is less possible since lit-
erary space is taken partially to be imagined
or ideational). There are, of course, many finer
distinctions, and the further complication that
literary form is part of the narrative element
in film form. This literary-narrative element —
to illustrate — is carried to its maximal extreme
in films that are little more than photographed
plays, and to a minimal extreme in the cinemat-
ic fragmentation of such films as 8'^ and Last
l^ear at Marienbad.

What we see in serious art theatres are, by
and large, respectable cinematic efforts — win-
ner of this or that award, the work of an al-
ready established director, or a revival. Many
more "art" (experimental) films we don't see,
however, are the ones that really miss the
grade. Their demerits, as of similar-quality ef-
forts in other art media, are obvious — but they
are, in film, results particularly of being unable
to control the medium's added dimensions
(added, as before noted, to the plain literary-
narrative framework). "Placement of camera,"
for example, "is cinematic inflection" (Chaplin,
Autobiography), and in this sort of film "in-
flection" will be either unskilled or simply un-
felt. Such films arc, in any number of ways,
entirely too fragmented and incoherent to admit
any real "dramatic irrelevancy" — which is the
Jteynotc of a well-structured film. The defini-
tion of a durational art form, anyway, is essen-
tially the boundary between the reality of abso-
lute-time and the reality of time made relative
by its integration into a finished consciousness
or closed system. The true art form is thus one
reality. But the unsuccessful film, suggested
here (really, the tendency to this sort of film),
has too many "holes," it admixes discrete real-
ities of time. This admixture dishonors and
annihilates itself, and it represents simply the
disintegration of the absolute and the n '.ative,
of form and content. The interposition of one
context in another is, then, impossible, since
the film's own, integral, sense of time is missing.
What, therefore, is a film's significant sense
of time? Well, its absolute sense is the film's
being an integrated and well-structured whole;
and this, is, specifically, a matter of the film's
form. The film's content, on the other hand, is
itself a relative sense of time — and this is ex-
amined more specifically.

By a significant sense of time in the content
of a picture I mean more than an historical
sense, more than the common dramatic sense.
It is something far more complex than a nar-
rative "element of time" — e.g., a flashback, an
expectant moment. Neither does it constitute
random manipulations of "time" as merely a
cinematic trick. What I am thinking of involves
two things: the director's general feeling of (or
consciousness of) the content of his work; and
specific, often "irrelevant," intrusions of Time
into the content of the work.

The fir.4 aspect is a kind of self -consciousness,
but less a consciousness of form than a con-

By

sciousness of content, if this means anything.
This aspect is naturally undefined, but it may
be evident — let us say a posteriori — in light of
certain manifestations of it in a work. 1 take
examples — one favorable, the other not — from
Renoir's Rules of the Game and Godard's A
Woman is a Woman.

In the society farce Rules of the Game we
have a phenomenal house party at a Marquis*
phenomenal chateau; there are brawls, dis-
guises, pranks, inconstancies; there is a brutal
hunting sequence in the fields, and later, around
tiie chateau, a mad gun-chase and -ambush
involving rival lovers. Amid the commotion,
Renoir, the buffoon-catalyst in the film, yowls:
•'How long is this farce going to last?" Then in
one of the final scenes, in front of the chateau
at night, he stands alone at the top of a dark,
stone staircase and, with back to the screen
mimes the conducting or controlling of an audi-
ence. And, in a somewhat detached moment.

Memory of a Women
Not Yet a Child

The frozen flomes of autumn lightly foil

In feors hidden in her smile.

While on her separate path, caught in the

thrall
Of outumn tears ond spring foil love.
She strolls to meet the nakedness of
Winter, innocent of guile.

By S. Diomondstone

he confides in the Marquise his awful despair,
that not having communicated with an audience
is something he feels he has most missed.

In the New Wave A Woman is a Woman we
have a conglomeration of spotted incidents and
vague desires (e.g.. Silence. "Are you afraid?"
— "I don't know." — "What do you want to do?"
^"1 don't know. What do you want to do?").
It is a weak product of a potentially interesting
director (Jean-Luc Godard). At one point, some
of the cronies having an allusive chat in a lo-
cal cafe, Jean-Paul Belmondo turns close-up
to the camera and winks, remarking something
like, ". . . Burt Lancaster, my friend." Toward
the end, Anna Karina, who's spent much of the
film-time employed in a strip tease joint, also
turns to the camera and says: "I don't know if
this is a comedy or a tragedy, but it is certainly
a masterpiece."

The director's feeling of content, when suc-
cessful, will enable him to integrate into his
film, and occasionally highlight, minute details
or "irrelevancies," or even the implicit rela-
tion of his control to the audience's response.
Rules of the Game, Truffaut's Shoot the Piano
Player, Bergman's The Silence — these are films
where the director's control of content and his
relation to the audience are significant. As for
minute details or "irrelevancies," one thinks of
reflective agencies (a mirror, glass, a pond), in-
ternal decoratives (tapestry, vases), some sort
of flower, a music theme. In a somewhat dif-
ferent sense, we can see even "time" used as a
significant "intrusion" or "irrelevancy," yet
only a manifestation of "Time" used as an in-
tegrating theme of the whole film. A dramatic
example is Truffaut's Jules and Jim.

Now this picture is exceedingly complex and
involved, but to the degree that it is successful
it is, I think, a picture about time. Is it his-
torical intent or individual psychology? It is
both; but, curiously, social criticism is a minor,
even non-existent factor here. Social setting is
less real than historical evolution, and this his-
torical evolution parallels the evolution of per-
sonal relationships among the three main char-
acters. The changes are sweeping; but Truffaut
provides a counterpoint to these historical and
psychological evolutions, the thematic progres-
sion, in various cinematic techniques and scenic
reliefs. Some cinematic techniques: the tempo
of the photography, which is wild and unstable
at the beginning, becoming increasingly quiet
and conventional as the picture progresses; the
mood of the music, which is skittish and quick
at the beginning, becoming increasingly reflec-
tive and somber; various "textures" stylistic of
the period (e.g., streets, clothing), or angles of
psychologic concentration (e.g., Katherine's
face, when she first appears); certain "freeze"
shots (of which I shall say more later). Some
scenic reliefs (there are many from beginning
to end): the seaside repose; Jim's improvisation-
al story about the dead soldier and his distant
fiancee; the nocturnal country scene where Jim
is sawing wood, Jules recites a German lyric
from the balcony, and Katherine looks on; the
moment of temporary reconciliation between
Jules and Katherine, in his room, as Jules tells
his tearful wife Ihe keynote of a Chinese play
(" T am the unhappiest man in the world be-
cause I have two wives — the first, and the sec-
ond.' ").

There are, further, various denotative mani-
festations of "time" in the film. There is the
beginning, just prior to World War 1, and the
end, just prior to World War II: at the begin-
ning, when Katherine outraces Jules and Jim
across a bridge by taking an unexpected head
start, she is wearing male clothes; and at the
end, when Katherine purposefully drives Jim
and herself off a broken bridge, she is again
wearing male clothes. In between, we have the
devalution of the bohemian ideal (the Jules-

JEREMY COTT

Jim prototype); and, by parallel, the interpola-
tion of newsreel footage throughout the picture,
culminating with the film-within-film of Ger-
man book-burnings in the thirties, and the im-
plicit rise of fascism. The correspondence here
of historical event — the film setting — to indi-
vidual event — Katherine's deceit, or mock de-
feminization — is no extraneous time-matter.

We can recognize some strange, more specific
manifes;tations of time in this film:
' — One moment Jules and Jim are looking at
slides of Greek statues ("They decide to go
there," says the commentator). They are
looking at the statues in Greece. The next
moment we see a train station in Paris ("They
returned to Paris . . .," says the commenta-
tor).
— Jim presents three theatre tickets for that eve-
ning. It is afternoon. Jules picks up an hour-
glass and turns it over, saying: "When all
the sand has passed to the bottom we shall
get dressed."
—Jim is to meet Katherine at a cafe at seven
o'clock. He arrives a few minutes late. She
is not there. He waits, has several cofl"ees (an-
other man, alone in the background, has a
ludicrous pile of saucers on his table, sig-
nifying as many cofl"ees). Jim is checking
his watch and finally leaves, about eight.
Just then, Katherine arrives; she looks
around, and walks out as a horse and closed
carriage passes on the street.
•^^At the train station Katherine and Jim meet
for the first time since the war. They shake
hands or smile a bit. The tone is casual and
inconsequential, or just empty.
*^The three are sitting together in a chalet room
with nothing much to say. Jules asks, "What
time is it?" Jim answers, "Twenty past one."
Jules says: "An angel always passes over the
house at twenty past the hour f Pause] . . .
also at twenty minutes before the hour." This
is very subtly like Jules, particularly of his
relationship to his young daughter Sabine—
but nothing further is said of it.

Three Loves

(Continued jrom Page A)
But on this night as I flee to her house, and
then stop suddenly as I see her walking on the
road, on this night I feel differently. I put my
arm around her and we walk towards the
Stockbridge beach. Just two days ago she and
Cherry and Sandy and I drove out to an Amuse-
ment park in Springfield and laughed away
the afternoon. But when Cherry and Sandy
left us, and I was alone in the car with her it
would get quiet and serious and I wouldn't
know what to do This was before I took
Cherry, when I was still Margie's property, but
with this beautiful Communism that we prac-
ticed everyone got with everyone else so that
it didn't matter. Anyhow I'd have my hands
all over her, but I couldn't kiss her, because
we both knew she was really too young no mat-
ter how she might act, or what she might say.
But as I say this night is difl"erent, and I am
much too passionate to really think at all. We
walk slowly to the beach. With Abby the words
flow out of me like rivers, there is no efl'ort
just the flowing motion. When we get to the
beach I go to the Boys' Bath House and put
Margie's picture there. I have no more use for
her, but her picture mustn't get wet.

Abby was such a bright youngster. When
she gave her views on marriage or religion she
sounded like the social counselor. When she
was alone with me, she stopped doing sumjner-
saults or sticking her tongue out or asking if I
had anything to suck, instead she talked quietly
about her cello playing or about Krushchev,
what difl"erence did it make anyway?

Sitting down now on somebody's porch, the
rain falling lightly I am acting like a fool and
I ask her for a kiss.

"But Karl you're my brother's friend." And
she bats her eyela.shes at me, so I put my tongue
into her mouth and she draws away,

*'I don't like to kiss that way." I start to
laugh. What an idiot I am, to try to ruin some-
thing so lovely with Abby. To try to make
cornplicatcd something so simple.

"Really Karl, it's just a matter of opinion,
isn't it?"

"Next year I'm going to take you out the first
weekend. You'll be 16 then and things will be
difl"erent."

A week later Sandy and T throw a surprise
party for Abby. I never saw a girl so happy
in my life. I suppose it is a wonderful feeling
to walk into a dark room and have all your
friends jump out at you with open arms. At
the end of the party when all the nine-year-olds
were home, when the games and dancing were
over, George and I dragged her outside and
kissed the hell out of her. He would hold her
and I would kiss her and then we'd reverse
the procedure, and all the time the thick pour-
ing rain is pouring down on us, and the three
of us are laughing.

yourself. He was so happy he started whistling
Dixie again; Neill stayed sat down and waited,
being far past caring. In the middle of a "Hoo-
ray" Deejay jumped up and punched a song
on the jukebox.

**Hey lissena this," he said to Neill. It was a
Mose Allison song:

Everybody's talkin bout the Seventh Son

In the whole roun world there is only one

And I'm the one

I'm the one I'm the one

The one they call the Seventh son,

I can tell the future, it will come to pass
Do things for you make your heart beat

fast
Look in the sky, predict the rain
I can tell when a womna's got another man

I'm the one I'm the one

The one they call the Seventh son.

"That's me," Deejay .said, and snuffed some

snot.

"You," said Neill.

"Me," said Deejay. "Hey Sammy! Hey Balls!"
he yelled. An evil-smelling little clot of people
wandered over- Deejay's friends of the HDP,
whom he introduced to Neill. "Neill, this is
Sammy The Freak, Sammy this Neill who's
a monk and doesn't know anybody, this is
George, at least he says his name is George. I
don't know, this is Neill, this is Balls. Balls,
this is Neill here. Hey George, whyn't you run
up the street and get Magoo back here, we
definitely need Magoo, we'll all go feed Neill
here and have a party. Neill," he turned to talk
to Neill, Sammy went out to find Magoo,
"Neill, I'm going to fix you up." And they
were off.

So first they went to Balls' place, and he told
Neill his story. Balls Burpee, ex-Sgt, XJSMC,
received some sort of very important medal for
singlehandedly destroying a six-man gook
patrol in Korea. Actually, it turns out, he was
nursing a blister behind a lump of mud where
he was supposed to be on lookout for that kind
of a patrol, and by the time he saw them th^
were mostly on top of him. He crawled into the
lump of mud and waited for them to leave;
then he went the other way. Unfortunately a
nervous Gl behind a machine gun spotted him
and started shooting; Balls was scared shitless
and ran shrieking back again, straight at the
gooks. When they saw him coming they were
scared shitless and broke- then half the GI
small-arms fire in Uie sector poured into the
field, which sounded like it really was full of
gooks. When it was all over Balls climbed out
of the lump of mud he was in and went home.
He got many medals and for some years made
a living giving speeches at vets clubs and DAK
locals. He even went a step higher and wrote
Alone Out There, under his real name Aloysius
Burpee; and royalties kept him going forever
after. Now his life was a crusade to save George
Sammy the Freak Deejay and the rest from
"no-balls unawarism". He gave Neill a turkey
drumstick and some Jell-O to eat.
After that they went walking up to Kearney
Street until Deejay said, "This is it, and went
in a building.

"Who're we visiting?" Neill asked.
"A girl named Sue Kraszny, Deejay told him
going up the dark stairs.

"Sue Kraszny!" said Neill. But she wa.^n t home.
"You know her?" Deejay asked, starting down

"lue'and Jack Kraszny? They came from New
York about three years ago? He s a POJ-t •
"Jack's dead," said Deejay. "Didn t you know?
"O yes" said Neill, "Yes I know ^. ^ _, . .^
"You can stay at JimJohn's, I'll find Siisie for
you. See:you did know somebody all the t mc.
Let's go get drunk," said Deejay, and they
wandered out again into old San Fnsco rainy
old town, where you might smell the Spanish
dead under the ground^ .

And so next fine fall San Francisco day Neill
DanieTc having fallen back into h.s appointed
place in life, went walking with Deejay over
to JimJohn Barrow's place- floors and floors
in fact the entire whole, of a big house on
Mason near Pine. A great coo| hcn'^^^.'.^S^^^J^
auiet for Neill. JimJohn lives there piled an
Ground with junk modern art garbage friends
and his saxaphone, obviously out of his mind
nlaying old gigs at jazz clubs, open to the
?ourist trade. As always ho was blowing when
the walked in, belching and squeal.ng around
in th^ up^r, registers concealing wisdom Down
there in the houses, in the mansions of old San
Frisco people f"op around, waiting for the flip.

nambulates around his house, room to room to

and Neill Dcci.iy showed Neill the layout

Viim a room then wandered off to rix every-
thing NenT" hoooo". Neill showered, and ate,
and slept.

Flip / Flop

First a cigaret, then lots of orange juice are
what constitute a perfcH:t breakfast for Deejay;
so he pads along the bright house to the kitchen,
where JimJohn's special restaurant-sized cans
of concentrated orange juice sit in the "Dee-
jay" corner of the refrigerator. Making a gallon
of orange juice is no easy job, especially with
not enough ice water or container space. Can-
metal makes a slowmotion soft crackle under
the canopener but the noise of the coldwater
tap running blasts that away. First comes "pre-
paring", then "stirring"; done carefully, with
tonguetip sticking out of the mouth corner. A
cigaret. for Deejay, is made to be in his mouth
always. It replaces the tonguetip. When the
juice is made and stowed away half in the re-
frigrator half for breakfast. Deejay takes a
first trial sip. Down the left corner of the
mouth, the cigaret occupying the right. Satis-
faction, and a half-gallon left over for the
next time If.

The serious drinking, a leisurely breakfast kind
of thing, could take an hour or two, and a
whole flock of cigarets. In the left corner this
time; further maneuvering always possible.
Coffee and oranges. Having had a morning
erection all this time Deejay goes to the John
and leaks. Pisses to the count of fiftyfour,
counting easily. Then out in the hall, to sit, to
wait; to break fast, to break ass. Ha hoooo.

By the fifth ciggie. last inch-and-a-quarter
(estimate) of juice in the half-gallon jug, while
Deejay is digging a fly on the wall opposite,
lost contemplating its bend sinister- the baB-
tardy of the fly which in its life 1) eats 2)
copulates or reproduces anyway, breeds, hm

3) flies walks stands and sleeps (sleeps? hey?)

4) in other words all the eating flying standing
and walking stuff means just it has a functional
survival-type reaction system, including those
wild fly eyes 5) and that's about all- and all
that survival just means breeding more flies
which makes more flies to do nothing but make
even more flies and more and more, with no
reason except changing from one fly in front
of my face to another- which I don't care-
couldn't tell the difference anyway- my God
what's going on here, maybe they don't even
exist- Somewhere in the middle of this, but not
interrupting it, Susie walked in with a gust of
windair and sunlight, scaring the fly away.
Deejay was on the floor there reaching his hor-
rified mad thought climax, drinking mechani-
cally, forgetting to smoke, getting an erection
of course . . .

"Why Deejay," Susie said, and stopped dead
where she was.

"Hooooo Susie," Deejay said, dribbling juice in
his crotch.

"Deejay, what are you doing," she asked.
"Breakfast." Four quick huge gulps and he
finished the juice, to the last sliding ripple on
the tilted side.

"But why no clothes," Sue said.
"Hee. Ha." he giggled. It was pretty funny,
after all- the giggle was funnier, though. "See,
it's a matter of sunlight and drowning. I think
1 dreamed about it, see- I don't remember my
dreams any more, not since that analyst tried
to make me when I was fourteen- just the way
they feel, a little. So I have to play hunches
in the morning. Hooooo. He tried to bite her on
the shin like a tiger. She kicked him, not too
hard, and got out of range. "Well, did you have
a good dream at least," she asked, piaying for
time.

"O yeah. It was great." He looked up at her
face smiling, having decided to compliment
her. "You were in it." Here she reached for a
cigaret from her purse. When she looked up
again he was digging his erection. She did too,
naturally. Her eyes just followed his. The cun-
ning of the insane.

Sue Kraszny .^^moked an uneven little drag and
knelt downby Deejay. He was terrified but If
I'm ashamed now they'll know What's she go-
ing to do why why ogod ogod Su.san laid her
hand across his upper thigh to his penis, raising
the quivering nervous erection like a wise
witch, slowly, unlrighteningly. Deejay started
going into shock, his mind working so fast on
scheming sublimative sidetracks it almost flew
away- Can't stop her if she knows I under-
stand she "11 say 1 killed him it was an ACCI-
DENT ACCIDENT not mine no no 1 know I
know She must be oversexed, she'.s a nym-
phomaniac She made it with that Neill yester-
day and him before that and that other guy
in NewYork A whole bunch all linked up she
wants every man who had something to do with
her last Why she wants ME WANTS ME
"You have a beautiful prick, Deejay. I love to
touch you," she said to him; spoke to him
softly, never making him lo<jk in her eyes- a
good woman can out-psych a psycho any tifc.
She had to bring him away from himself so she
could look in, and understand, under.«^land what
she knew happened, what it all was . . . And
he of no importance. Like the fly. The fly
was enjoying some of the old grease that cov-
ers ceilings now. And JimJohn let them play
the scene cut, as he sensed it, as he sniffed
improvisation in the air.

After a pause DJ told Susan, "Ed and Martha're
back again, they got back yesterday. They said
they'd bo coming here tonight- 1 invited a
whole bunch of people over. We'll have a par
ty." He sat cp squatting and talked to h •-
"They sounded very nervous. I can't wait to
find out what happened."

With an effort Sue managed to ask what did
he mean, what happened. "You and Jack didn't
know anybody here before you met me", Dee-

jay more or less said to her. The fear was
deadened now. she knew he was leading her
into some small grotesque but didn't care any
more- "No," she said simply. And Deejay said
nothing, extending silence long past a pause.
••I think they went to L.A. to get Timmy back
this time," he said at last, so that it had no
sequence.

"Who's Timmy," Susan asked.
"Their kid," he said. Then their was a mutual
silence.

••I didn't know they had a baby."
"O sure," Deejay said assuredly, ;,thats why
they got married in the first place 'He waite^d
acain drawing anticipation tight- "They could-
n't handle it, see- they were going to put him m
o rkrr^hinaep after a while but one of Manna s
old gtrUrflnds, Shene^ made them let her keep

out by this time.

-How old is he?" Susie asked him.
••«;iv now 1 think." He looked at her confidenti-
S o«H «nid "l bet he doesn't like them. 1 bet

"I'm sorry you think that," he said. "You don't

Susan lay on her back, her breasts stretched
flatly ht^r legs apart. She felt very tired and
the ceiling absorbed that Deejay sat where If?
was, .^taring at things and at nothing some-
times, humming under his breath sometimes
too. Susie fell asleep eventually, dozing really.
In the hall, bright and warm.
Around five Susie woke up, dressed, went home
to Sonny. Deejay was absent at the time but
JimJohn found her and talked to her at the
door.

"Goodbye, JimJohn," Susan said. "I'm .sorry
about the- show- we put on this afternoon,
and laughed weakly.

"Ah hell, honey," he .said, with his voice, "it
had to happen sometime. You are a real tough
chick."

"O JimJohnny."

"No no, honey. What I'm saying is you're an
amazing' woman. Amazing good woman. Tiieri s
some things you have to do and you're doing
them. Not many people."

"I'm so tired." she said, wondermg- how can
you be so tired? . ^ .. • '•

"It'll be over again .soon, just don t give up.
"Will it?" she asked him.

"Shit " he said, and smiled, "I .said .so didrTT

him on the cheek before walking off into the
dimlight; JimJohn, he walked back in hi.^- house
again playing his line. BadoBEEEEEEBEeeee-

A few hours later, in the evening, in walked
Big Ed and Martha Marko and little Timmy
Marko their son. Big Ed all big, huge, stupefy-
ing with his Neitzsche moustache and cordu-
roy jacket; Martha small and pale, calm; Little
Timmy ragedeved and maybe sullen. They and
JimJohn talked for .some time, all old easy
friends. Timmy got to deciding he loved Jim-
John in no time. That lasted until Deejay come
in with his band from the Hot Dog Palace and
other crannies, all more or less acquainted
friends of JimJohn Ed or Martha too.

Time and Content in the Film

(Continued from Page B)

iin's c>;d girl friend seems always in the back-
ground; so too with Katherine's old boy
friend. Remember that Jules and Jim first
meet Katherine through this boy friend and
that at the end she's still running into him.
Jim never marries his old girl even though
he too sees her intermittently throughout the
film. Jim tells Jules: "She says she'll wait
for me until I'm ready [to marry]."

—The letter correspondence between Katherine
and Jim involves any number of significant
elements — altered emotions, a pregnancy, an
unsuccessful parturition, Jules, Jim's girl
friend, sending and receiving — all of which
would be impossible given the illusive sense
of time (speed, concentration, responses).

—When Jim and Katherine die, their bodies are
cremated; their ashes are put into separate
urns and the urns into different compart-
ments on the wall. Jules looks on all of this
silently, with an undefined air of resignation
or inconsequence — as if the summation of
Uie whole pa^t had come almost to nothing.

As I have suggested, all those specific man-
ifestations of time are in the context of an
historical progression. The paradoxes of time in
the film are the effect of contradiction l^etween
historical intent and individual psychology, be-
tween the Great War and private irresolution,
between distance and proximity — and, finally^
between absolute time and relative time.

Our adherence to time is based either on
change, which is absolute, or on a will to tran-
scend time and change (whereby past and pres'

ent coalesce and time "stands still"), which is
of course relative (to the will). Due to the con-
fusion of those absolute and relative values and
to an occasional estrangement from their pur-
poses, the means of "telling time" will be some,
times regarded with a strange inconsequence or
irrelevance. This may also happen when a sud-
den, "eschatological" turn of events makes a
person sense unconsciously that there is, after
all, nothing but time. Thus we can find in films
occasional instances where someone desperately
recalls the object of his watch without attach-
ing any real meaning to the purpose of that
object. In La Dolce Vita, Marcello and his
father spend a fast night on the town with
women and drink, but the old fellow has a
stroke and is given rest in Marcello's apart-
ment. He is sitting in the dark, looking out the
window, motionless, with his back toward the
camera — when a cab arrives to take him home.
Marcello bids him and turns on the light. The
old fellow slowly gets up and, going to the
desk, says, "Where is my watch," or. "I must
have left my watch somewhere." In All Quiet
on the Western Front, our soldier hero, lying
supine on a hospital stretcher, gets a visit from
several friends. In the course of the conversa-
tion he discovers that his leg has been ampu-
tated. Ho drifts off into despair. Moving
around a bit, abruptly he stammers, "Hey, they
took my watch:!" . . And in La Strada, Zam-
pano. after leaving the circus, encounters the
Fool on the road; Zampano attacks him, beats
him brutally. The Fool is doomed. His head
bloody and crushed against his car, he turns on
a characteristic smirk for a moment and, just
before he falls dead, holds his wrist, whimper-
ing, **. . . Hey, . . . you broke my watch . . .!**

The^se instances demonstrate the use of Time,
or the objective means of its communication, as
a dramatic irrelevancy. Now, the starting point
of this i I relevant peak is, as suggested, the will
to tran.scend time, to make Ume "stand still."
I recall two good examples of this will in the
denotative content of two different films.

In Wutherin^ Heights, on a beautiful, clear
day we find Catherine and Heathcliff together
oji tl)e moors; they engulf the air, they exult.
Catherine, looking out over the country, pro-
nounces, "Oh, Heathcliff. make everything stop,
make the world stand still here. . . . Whatever
I am, whatever I may do or say, remember —
this is always me, now . . ." (words to this
effect). I don't quite recall how they get out
of this one, but the unfolding of the scene is
somehow worthy of Catherine's pronouncement.
1 siiould add that nine-tenths of this film con-
stitutes a flashback which, from the point of
narrative, finds Catherine dead and Heathcliff
brooding over the evanescent "reality" of the
pa.si.

The New Wave Breathless, a more interesting

example of Godard's work, has for its camera
technique a relevant tenor: jumpy, discontin-
uous shots reflecting the protagonist Belmondo's
adroit nonchalance; exposure of the going-into
a situation and the coming-out of the situation
but omitting the time in-between — an existen-
tial "disdain" for the process, or static content,
of movement. A scene that tem^iorarily relieves
this camera technique, anyway, is the fairly
plain exposure of the airport press conference.
Here the reporter Seberg asks the pseudo-celeb-
rity, "What is your greatest ambition in life?"
("Quelle est votre plus grande ambition dans la
vie?"). Busy; no response. Again: "Quelle est
votre plus grande ambition dans la vie?" Pause.
The fellow reflects, then responds: "To become
immortal — and then die."

I give the cinematic context in these examples
not simply to highlight the spoken disclosure,
but rather to demonstrate — and as to mean in
all cases — that idiosyncratic disclosures of con-
tent are only relative to the underlying context
of form. Thus to interchange the cited utter-
ances in Wuthering Heights and Ehreathless
would be to create an artistically impossible
situation, indicating a disproportion of tones
and epitomized cinematographies.

The integrated and well-structured film, on
the other hand, has the potential — relative to
its content's significant sense of time, as de-
scribed— to interpose a momentary sense of ab-
solute time into its form, to make time "stand
still." It is the momentary summation of all
preceding content, and its concentration, hence
its "neutral illumination.'* It is the simultane-
ity of conscious irrelevancy and unconscious
relevancy. It is the manifestation of absence,
the true defining characteristic of any form,
within presence, which is the annihilation of
absence. It is, simply, a restoring moment. . . .
It is also, I daresay, more a theoretical proposi-
tion than an actual realization (If we talk of
relative values, it is implicitly in absolute
terms). It is, then, a goal of a certain genre;
and while it is not a necessary manifestation of
a "great" work, it will be a climactic tendency
of the integral film with a certain-oriented con-
sciousness. I am giving two examples — one
thematic, the other technical — each from the
work of two different directors.

The thematic examples are from Chaplin and
Kurosawa. Chaplin's full length films are par-
ticularly conducive to the dramatic moment of
time suspension — possibly because of his spe-
cially positioned lyricism in counterpoint to ai
comic scheme, or because of (what he calls) his
"peculiar solipsism." In any case, the final mo-
ment of confrontation in City Lights, between
Chaplin and the no- longer-blind flower girl, is
incomparable. For what we are looking for,
however, I doubt the individual strength of an
ending (being what it is), or the sequence that
involves dual, though repeated, exposures. A
better example is a moment toward the end of
Limelight. It is in the context of impersonal
cinematic contrasts, of light (stage spots and
darkness) and of sound (audience reactions and
silence). We know that Chaplin is highly ideal-
istic, highly self-conscious, and highly senti-
mental, and yet that he is perhaps skeptical of
his very idealization. Now, retired and grey, he
is to give a final benefit performance. Ardently
his young and beloved ballerina tells him, "I
love you," and he, smiling — with the caked
make-up cracking slightly on his face — says:
". . Really?!" . . . Such a 'moment "practically"
avoids all the theoretical conditions cited be-
fore. Thus it is as difficult to describe ade-
quately as to explain in any way.

A nioinent toward the end of Kurosawa's
Stray Dog is — entirely different from Chaplin's
work — a kind of cultural summation of all the
preceding events, and the concentration of that
".sum" in the moment's setting. ... A young
detective's Colt revolver is swiped on a public
bus: this incident set^ the detective off on an
arduous search — for the revolver and the thief

- — and provides the motivating principle of the
entire film. For just one weapon? Yes, this is
a distinctively Japanese work, a distinct cul-
ture; but the motivic structure here is por-
tentous, comparable to the Neo-Realist mag-
nification of a bicycle (De Sica's Bicycle Thief),
or even the literary extension of Bloom's ad-
vertising job (Joyce's Ulysses). In the detec-
tives efforts there is much anxiety, solicitude,
outside people, different places, terrible heat,
sweating, momentary hopes, dead ends. Toward
the end, our detective spots the thief, a wound
in his shoulder, by a railroad station. There is a
chase, a cessation in a viny field. All action
stills. The two face each other, panting severe-
ly— the detective gripping another Colt, blood
from the thief's wound dripping slowly onto
some raised foliage. There is, maybe, their
breath and the chirping of a few birds. Then
we get an over-view of the two men, the field,
and the faint sound of Mozart piano music
coming from a nearby house. . . . Following:
another scene, the aftermath.

The technical examples of time suspension —
the dramatic intrusion of Time Into the content
of a film — are from Eisenstein and Truffaut.

Now Eisenstein's Potclnkin projects collective
man, not merely an individual, as the hero;
paradoxically, then, the considered scene here
involves just one sailor — in a symbolic act of
revolt. The sailor, preparing a meal, is cli.
mactically repulsed at the autocratic subjection
aboard sliip. Eisenstein gives us, first, a se-
quence of still frames alternating between a
view of the standardized eating plate and
one at the sailor; and then a sequence of
spatially disconnected frames which show
the sailor raising the plate over his head
in fury, and smashing it violently on the table.
. . . The film (made 1925) was thus the first, a&
Parker Tyler points out, "to embody, in their
most tangible form, various principles of con-
struction peculiar to the medium: montage (or
editing) and parallel action (the expansion of
time through spatial manipulation); or, in sum,
the purely formal deployment of objective ac-
tion to create psychological dimensions."

I come now to the final section of discussion
in this paper — the significance of a contempo-
rary sensibility of time. Truffaut's work, over
thirty years after Potemkin, indicates a very
stern self-consciousness of film content. A tech-
nique that has become one of Truffaut's trade-
marks— a technique derivative of previous
cinematographies and of his own cinematic con-
sciousness— is the dramatic "freeze.** This is
the retention of a single frame for a brief mo-
nnent,a momentary discontinuance of the "mov-
ing picture." We find it first in 400 Blows, but
constituting the very last shot — the boy by the
sea, finding himself trapped. Next in Jules and
Jim it is employed in two ways. When Jules
and Jim meet for the first time since the war,
and they embrace — the camera freezes. Later,
when the two men are playing a table game,
and Katherine discourses irrelevantly on the
side — the camera, focusing on Katherine'*
changing facial positions and expressions, al-
ternates several times between the irregular
freeze and normal motion. In Truffaut's latest
film. Soft Skin, it is used just once I believe —
in the first segment of the plot. . . . The princi-
pal Monsieur has spent a furtive night with an
attractive airline stewardess. (Two telephone
calls transpire between them before they agree
to meet.) The next day they are on the same
plane. The stewardess extends a tray of candy
and matches. Monsieur takes a mint. The fel-
low next to him does likewise. The stewardess
puts a matchbook in Monsieur's lap. He shrugs
facially and puts it back on the tray. The
stewardess, Nicole, circumspectly places the
same matchbook in his lap, implicitly eyes him.
She moves on. (Monsieur is later to discover,
written inside the matchbook . . .: "Nicole" and,
ostensibly, her telephone number.) . . . When
tlie passengers are unboarding at the home port,
Nicole stands at the exit saying "Au revoir" to
each person as he passes by. Then Monsieur.

wandered around the house exploring halis,
rooms, furnitures and decorations; wandering
around in the litter of artifacts, doodles, ob-
structions and spaces of the house, all ramified
and quixotic, just so as JimJohn himself. The
Markos and JimJohn and Carlos and Adam
Fung and Harriet and Magoo and Sammy and
Bathsheba talked Ecology, Lawrence of Arabia,
travels, religion, Ed's painting, Adam's paint-
ing, Hariet's painting, Gauguin's painting, the
latest bits, histories of San Frisco, obscene
jokes. Later on the door banged open and shut
and another somebody walked in. People yelled
and muttered "Hi Lucky" "Yo Lucky". Lucky
stood in the middle of the room awhile hitching
his pants up around his belly and scratching
and grinning through his beard- he even said
something, "Something's happening to Texas."
which nobody paid much attention to. They
were used to Lucky standing in the middle of
the room grinning and occasionally saying
something incomprehensible or meaningless of
wrong.

"What happened to Texas, Lucky," Adam Fun-g
asked a little bit later to fill the pause.
"What could happen to Texas," Sammy pointed
out.

"Well, yeah," Lucky said, "Yeah. But all the
papers are running headlines like TEXAS DIS-
APPEARS or TEXAS DESTROYSD FBI IN-
VESTIGATING, something like that." Lucky
didn't usually have to fill in for the wire ser-
vices. Neill wasn't around, God knew where he
was. So until he did come nobody else was-
much interested. Lucky stood around, grinning,
and it was dropped.

The little halfparty went right on rolling. Even-
tually Timmy found his way back to the right
room and fell asleep on a desktop, scattering
papers and pencils and a nailclipper and even
what looked like a stain to make room for a
big .sofa-cushion-pillow. Timmy accepted the
residue of smoke and talking and companion-
.ship from the elders, sleeping his child's time
that runs off the grandfather clock, unlike the
buzz and swarm of adult's chitinous moments^
the old mysteric Mondrian time of the middle
of life. JimJohn was blowing soft insideout
lines on his horn again, moving around the
room and the few adjoining, adhering all their
sounds, the voices following him where he went,
displaced from the .speaker and the group ex-
changing, dragging ass Ed's voice and the others*
around, weaving and composing them on the
square boards of minutes and breaths and beats.

was heard to comment: "Funny
how things change, isn't it?"
With that I most heartily agree.
Dt^spite the serious import of
the meeting, which may well
have l>een the most significant
of the year, my other oppo-
nent. Frank Bloch, did not at-
tend.

Although it is imperative for
a candidate to recognize what
has been wrong — and to ac-
knowledge past failures hon-
estly — this alone is not suffi-
cient. The positive proposals
which are within the realm of
immediate possibility are nu-
merous. They can be attained
within the existing power struc-
ture as a preliminary step to-
ward more formal power. Here
are a few:

The present Council has pro-
duced a housing program, col-
lected the Activities Fee for
the first time (because it was
forced to) and negotiated some
changes in the cafeterias. Other
than this, it has done very lit-
tle of a positive nature. The
proposals I have made are all
practical. With some thinking,
some talking, and mainly some
working, we can transform the
words to realities. But the com-
mitment to such a program is
up to you.

(1) A reading period of at
least one week be required in
all courses which give exams.

(2) The number of Credits
required for graduation be re-
duced from 120 to 105, allow-
ing students to take four
courses during five of eight
semesters. A fifth course would
be allowed during any semes-
ter without petition.

(3) Lengthening of library
and snack bar hours so that
both might remain open until
midnight or later.

(4) Bi-weekiy meetings be-
tween members of Council and
the Educational Policies Com-
mittee of the faculty which
would, among other things, aim
toward improvement of stu-
dent-faculty relationships.

(5) Offering of a substitute
meal in at least one dining hall
for all lunches and dinners.

(6) The establishment of
transportation between campus
and Waltham on a shuttle basis
during the busy hours of the
day. This could be done through
the use of paid student drivers.

(7) Regular meetings be«
tween President Sachar and the
entire Council.

These proposals are not mere
wishful thinking; each one has
a real chance of acceptance.
From my discussions with the
Dean of Students, the Dean of
the Faculty, President Sachar,
and faculty members, I can say
this with some confidence.
There is much that Council can
do if it only exerts the effort
and energy, but a strong Coun-
cil must be led by an effective
President, and a president will
only be as big as his aspirations
and as effective as his imagina-
tion.

arms in the Imes, leaning for-

locking down now to see how
crowded the boat had become;
multi-colored crates and people
who had no place to sit, chil-
dren alone, young teachers
headed back to St John's Col-
lege in Belize, boys talking
about hunting jaguars and
monkeys and iguanas, and
swimming ("Sho, mon, 1 sooner

now part of the atmosphere; I
was detached myself floating,
as they loaded cocoanuts at
Stann Creek, and set off into
the dusk, between the shapes of
small cays. Once again I lay in

to prove your worth early in your career. Dale
Anderson's experience is a case in point.
After receiving his B.A. in Physics in June, 1962,
Dale joined our College Graduate Program and
was assigned to our Research Laboratories.
Recently he was given the responsibility for cor-
recting cab vibration occurring on a particular
type of truck. His studies showed that tire eccen-
tricity was the cause of the trouble. Since little change could be effected
in tire compliance, his solution lay in redesigning the suspension system.
Tests of this experimental system show the problem to be reduced to an
insignificant level.

That's typical of the kind of meaningful assignments given to employes
while still in the College Graduate Program— regardless of their career
interest. No "make work" superficial jobs. And, besides offering the oppor-
tunity to work on important problems demanding fresh solutions, we offer
good salaries, a highly professional atmosphere and the proximity to
leading universities.

(Continued from Page 5)
the President in the shoulder.

However, a series of Life
Magazine pictures proved that
the Presidential car was mov-
ing away from the depository
and he could not possibly have
been hit in the front of the
neck from that window. So re-
port number two said (retain-
ing Oswald-alone, and not con-
sidering ihe possibility of a shot
from in front of Kennedy) that
the first bullet hit Kennedy in
the shoulder, the second h i t
Connally, and the third hit the
President in the back of the
Beck and came out the front;
thus the Oswald -a lone theory
was allowed to stand up.

Then it was discovered that
a bullet had missed completely,
hitting the grass and nicking a
spectator on the rebound. So,
the third and final version came
out; this one had to explain the
absolute impossibility of four
shots being fired from the Car-
cano. So, bullet one hit Ken-
nedy in the shoulder (as per
report #2), bullet two missed
completely (to suit the new
fact), and bullet three hit the

President from the rear, came
out the front of his neck, and
proceeded to hit Connally. This
despite the governor's original
ctntention that he heard one
shot before and one after he
himself was hit; this despite
the weird angle on which the
bullet would have had to travel
to hit Connally where it did
after leaving Kennedy's body.

Thus the original story was
clianged three times to suit not
the facts, but the original Os-
wald-alone theory. In any other
case, every possible explana-
tion of the new facts (e.g. did
someone else shoot from the
front?) would have been ex-
haustively researched before
anyone could state, as did Sher-
riff Currey, on November 24,
that "the case is closed." Not
80, however, in this particular
murder "investigation."

Buchanan convincingly
emasculates many elements of
the official report. After read-
ing the first section of his book,
the least one can say is that
the official version is full of
hol€*s. The most one can do is
to accept Buchanan's theo-
retical explanation for what
did happen. In it, he suggests
two murderers (neither of them
Oswald, who was not a good

enough shot), one from the
depository window and one
from the viaduct directly in
front of the President's car
(thus explaining the original
entrance wound report and the
four shots). He also suggests
that Jack Ruby and Patrolman
Tippit may well have been part
of the conspiracy (along with
Oswald, who was chosen to be
the fall-guy from the start),
and that Texas oil-men, afraid
of the eastener Kennedy, who
hoped to reduce the oil indus-
try's tax benefits, might have
been the instigators.

It so happens that Buchanan's
theory is far more reasonable
than the Oswald-alone theory,
but even if it were not, it is
worth considering as a conjec-
ture which could all too possi-
bly become a reality in this
country, especially in the
wealthy southern areas.

I doubt that this book will
penetrate the incredibly thick
protection which majority
opinion affords the shallow
thinkers of this country, but it
is a must-read item for those
who still have doubts a*^ to the
truth of the officially accepted
version.

And that should be every-
body.

He pauses shyly. As, for a moment, he and
Nicole silently face each other, the camera
freezes (:it extends that moment). The frame
is released, motion resumed.
•*Au revoir, monsieur."

And he passes on solemnly. "Au revoir, mad«
emoiselle."

Truflfaut's ^'freeze" is never (I shall except
its irregular use in 400 Blows) mf>re than, say,
three seconds. Yet consider what fraction of a
second a frame is normally given on the screen!
The ratio of the two is considerable. To an
audjence this brief freeze will liierefore be an
unthinking, almost embarrassing cessation.

1 can barely imagine how this specific tech-
nique could be used for social criticism. Social
criticism in Truffaut is, as noted before, a curi-
ously minor factor, even under historical intent.
It may be Truflfaut's very particular use of this
technique — and its context, the TrufTaut film
itself, which is particularly inventive.

If "the film" is the duration, the evident
space, and sound, . . . and if the duration and
sound are temporarily discontinued (as in the
**freeze"), then the only presence, for that mo-
ment, is^the evident space. What does this
mean? Vvell, in my earlier comparison between
the film and the literary work I did not elab-
orate on the independence or dependence of
their piime dimensions. 1 mentioned that lit-
erary space is imagined or ideational and that
film space, theoretically omitting the literary-
narrative element, is evident space: this is the
principal distinction between their dimensions.
A further distinction, however, is that the char-
acteristic dimensions of the literary work are
ultimately dependent on each other (i.e., dura-
tion and ideational space can exist only simul-
taneously), while the characteristic dimensions
of the film are potentially, and "practically," in-
dependent of each other (as demonstrated ab-
solutely by TrufTaut's "freeze"). If of the two
arts, therefore, literature is the more closed
system, it also does not admit the dramatic ir-
relevancies of content as easily or as well as do
motion pictures. The "freeze" is one kind of
dramatic irrelevancy. But what does "dranuitic
irrelevancy" signify here? . . . The relative
independenci' of duration and space in the tilm
simply allows the temporary cancellation of
duration (which i.s another way of putting
"freeze"). The isolated presence of evident
space, then, signifies this, relatively: the reten-
tion ol content simultaneous with the discon-
tinuance of form; or. the absence of absolute
time in which, by a "virtual" quirk, relative
time becomes absolute.

Ey this understood signi/ication, and in retro-
spect of what TrufTaut lias done so far, we can
see that the "freeze" provides a dramatically
objective and impersonal view of what to ihe
pt^r.sonages involved on the screen is an unusu-
ally subjective and personal moment. Thus the
device is, on the director's part, unconsciously
inslalkci ii. . .'^in.Li'iiriy p;rc se moment. To
test the depth and intensity of it? use I occa-
sionally imagine its application in films of diver-
gent styles (e.g., Eisenstein's. Von Sternberg's,
Hitchcock's, Antonioni's), im<\ its position in
difleient moments in those films: I cannot place
it succe.'-sfully anywhere else. This may be iny
imagination, but it must largely reflect the dis-
tinctive quality of TrufTaut's art.

I am not contesting TrufTaut to be a truly
great film director, but I do find in his w(»rk a
certain epitome of contemporary timc-uncon-
sciousnes>.* What, then, is Ihe real prijjri le
bound up =•-! 'rt n( rk" Thr l.-irge con'en) 'f a
TrufTaut film (I have not .sp(«ken of The Mischief
Makers, Shoot the Piano Player, and Love at
Twenty, though thc-e too apply) implicates the
mutual challenge of discret(^ realities, where
one reality is the initially presented condition
and the other reality a not-as-yet realiz(>d de-
sire or, generally, a more real connection to
things, li the furllier "reality" is po.'ssible. it is
never achieved. In the protagonists' confronta-
tion of discreet realities we see repeatedly their
self-consciousness (hence their self-unconscious-
ness) in the matter, a .social hindrance, and
perhap something else prevent them from ( Toss-
ing the boundary between those two realitieis.
At the beginning there is the latency of life
pjossibilities, and at the end the txhaustion of
life possibilities. And at the end of each full
length picture, one person, alont on the screen,
is looking away absently, implicitly so con-
fused as to be unable to comprehend the passage
of time and the context of little (or, a diflerent)
emotion.

Finally: the existence of an ait form estab-
lishes an absolute time outside that fc-rm and
a relative time within it, and the first "time"
is generally irrelevant to the second. But a fur-
ther self-assertion of that form may be the im-
minent iux^nnos-jtinn of those two "<imes." or
the mnmentary interposition of the first in Hie
second; here dramatic irrelevancy is a virtue.
In its intensity the film's point of intrusion l)e-
comes decreasingly narrative and denotative,
and increasingly technical and ronnotri1i\ o.
Functionally, the moment of intrusion ^'ixe.s
the illusion of omitting time, yet the "omis-
sion" composes a sense of time that is mystiri-
onsly t.'uit - one structured b^- the foics^-ill-
ment of an unseen future, and by a past that
is unconsciously recalled.

* Related here arc tuw general statements.
One tlie "time" inherent in a life or work is
proportional to tlie degree of (the feeling of)
consciousness, and complexity, in that u>ork.
Tioo: emotion is defivahly most relevant to that
aspect of an "idea" (i.e., an idea, a person, a
setting) of which the "idea" is itself uncon-

Judges Face Boston College Tonight

Bob Cousy\s Boston College Eagles visit Shapiro Athletic Center tonight to face
the court Judges at 8:15. The Eagles, sporting a 16-6 record, are off the heels of a
89-78 victory over Fordham.

dropped^TwT mo"rt^^dedsiins 'played listless basketball while | off the boards. Ron McRobbie,

last week to increase the long
est Brandeis losing streak to 14
games. The Blue and White
were topped by Tufts last Tues.,
79-69 and mauled by Colby,
95-64, on Sat. night.

The Eagles, hoping for post-
season consideration, are led by
Ail-American John Austin of
Washington. The 6' 1" junior has
a 26.2 scoring average, best in
New England. Against Ford-
ham he scored 32.

Willie Wolters. a big 6' 8"
sophomore center from Brook-
lyn, NY., is the Eagles leading
rebounder with 247 rebounds
in 21 games. Wolters also is
netting 11 points per game. Ted
Carter, a 6' 5" sophomore, is
averaging 12.9 points.

Boston College has averaged
92 points per game and has
won its last eight games.

Nine Judges

The Brandeis squad now re-
duced to nine regulars, will
have to play control basketball
to keep the score respectable.
JefT Schwamm, Steve Heller
and Mike Leiderman are no
longer with the team due to
"personal reason.s " Dave Gor-
don and Gerry Katz will try to
fill the vacancies on the squad.

Dave Jacobson is doubtful
for tonight's contest as he suf-
fered an ankle sprain during
the Colby fiasco.

In last week's action, the
Judges traveled up to Water-
ville. Me. Saturday and suf-
fered their 14th straight loss.
The Colby Mules took a 12-2
opening lead and coasted to a
50-26 halftime margin. The
Judges were never in the ball-
game and were thoroughly out-
clas.sed.

High men for Brandeis were
Barry Zimmerman with 21
points and Richie HymofT with
17. Barry, playing before a
*'home-town" crowd, hauled in
ten rebounds. Dave Jacobson
popped in ten points and gath-
ered ten rebounds for Brandeis
before suffering the injury
early in the second half.

Pete Swartz led Colby with
27 points and 17 rebounds.
John Stevens had 13 and Ed
Berube 14 for the Mules. Colby
shot 50 percent from the floor
to the Judges' 31 percent. The
Mules outrebounded Brandeis
67 to 47.

Jumbos Score

Against Tufts, the Judges

succumbing to the weak Jumbo
five by a 79-69 count. The Blue
and White jumped out to a 5-2
lead on jump shots by Zimmer-
man and Richie Epstein and a
free throw by Santo Cimino.
But two quick buckets by Ron
McRobbie put Tufts in front to
stay, 6-5.

Tufts took a 33-2B halftime
lead and hoops by big Jim Claf-
fee widened the Jumbos mar-
gin to ten points early in the
second half. High men for
Brandeis were Zimmerman
with 24 and Richie Epstein
with 10. Barry hit for 18 points
in the second half to keep the
Judges in the game. Jacobson
contributed seven points and
ten rebounds for Brandeis.
Dave Epstein looked good as he
played 22 minutes and scored
8 points.

Jim ClafTee was high man for
Tufts with 29 points. He pop-
ped in 23 of his points in the
second half and hurt Brandeis

with sweeping hook shots,
poured in 21 points. Capt. Dave
Spath had 12 points and Ken
Neiman 11.

Frosh Lose

As for the Brandeis fresh-
men — well. Gene Booth's
chargers will face an unde-
feated Boston College fresh-
man squad tonight at 6:15.
B.C.'s freshmen have won 14
straight. They average 6' 4"
188-pounds and their starting
five of 6' 7" Jim K i s s a n e ,
6' 5" Steve Adelman (almost a
Brandeisian last year), 6' 10"
Tom Pacynski, 511" Phil
Laiiey and 6' 0" Jack Kvancz
will be a formidable opposition
tonight.

The Brandeis freshmen trav-
elled up to Dartmouth Wednes-
day and suffered a humiliating
77-28 defeat as they were one
for 20 from the field the first
half.

On the Judges' Bench

A Time to Act

Pete Weiner

The Brandeis basketball team, voted the No. 1 small-
college team in the East in 1958, has deteriorated into
the worst team in New England in 1965. Why have the
fortunes of the basketball* —

squad, the major team at Bran-
deis, reached a new low this
year?

The situation as it stands
now, the team is 0-14 as they
face Boston College, has be-
come intolerable. It is farcical
for a team, now depleted to
nine members, to be subjected
to the humiliation and abuse
heaped upon them. It is too
simple a solution to blame
Coach Olin for the team's poor
showing. The boys have done
their best. The problem lies
much deeper — in the funda-
mental conception of athletics
at our liberal arts university.

"The athletic program exists
for the welfare of the students
and for the contribution it can
make to his educational experi-
ence." So states the Brandeis
catalogue. At present, what
teams, particularly basketball,
make to the participants or to
the entire student body?

The members of the basket-
ball team have lost their pride
and respect — pride in them-
selves, respect for the coach,
and pride in the school.

The student body has also
been adversely affected by the
current state of Brandeis athle-
tics. Students have also lost

their pride in the team and in
the school. For college stu-
dents, and especially Brandeis
students, this apathy towards
the University is not healthy.
An effort must be made to cor-
rect this situation NOW.

Brandeis has joined the lead-
ers in higher cxlucation in
record time, however it has
failed to observe their direction
toward excellence in intercol-
legiate athletics. The Univer-
sity may be first in grants, but
it is dead last in sports anci
this loser's status sets it apart
from Harvard, Yale, Tech and
other academic giants of our
time.

These hallowed institutions
have not compromised their
standards to maintain academic
and athletic excellence. They
have not resorted to importing
tramp athletes. They do ad-
mit qualified students, who are
proficient in sports, without
discrimination.

Perhaps the solution can be
characterized by two alterna-
tives — either disband inter-
collegiate athletics entirely at
Brandeis OR make a concerted
effort to return intercollegiate
athletics to a state of respecta-
bility in which students will
be proud of their school for its
athletic endeavors as well as
for its academic excellence.
The decision must be made by
those responsible, the adminis-
tration, and strictly adherred
to.

YAF at Brandeis?
Not Yet, But Hope . . .

For a while now the motto of the Young Americans
for Freedom in the Boston area has been "Today MIT,
tomorrow Brandeis." Recent rumors have indicated that
this slogan was nearing actualization, for, it was said, a
YAF chapter was in the process of formation at Brandeis.
(YAF, for those who don't know, is the leading organiza-
tion of young conservatives in*

the country.)

It now seems, however, that

Boston conservatives will have
to return to their old motto,
for their hopes of bringing
Brandeis into their fold appear
to have been a bit premature.

The source of the false re-
ports seems to be Gordon Nel-
son, executive director of YAF
in Massachusetts. Nelson has
been trying to strengthen his
organization in the state, and
apparently was informed that
a certain unidentified Brandeis
student would be interested in
forming a YAF chapter on
campus. He contacted the stu-
dent who (according to her
story), never had any such in-
terest, never expressed any
such interest, still has no inter-
est, and knows of no one at
Brandeis who ever entertained
any such interest. (Said stu-
dent, however, does appear to
be a conservative.) But some-
how her message did not get
across to Nelson who said in
an interview that he still be-
lieves that a YAF chapter is in
the process of formation at
Brandeis.

The failure to form a chapter
at Brandeis is likely to be a
disappointment to Nelson in his
elTorts to broaden YAF in
Massachusetts. According to
him, YAF is now undergoing
an extensive re-evaluation of
purpose in the wake of last
year's elections. Goldwater's
defeat, he says, was a tremen-
dous setback to the conserva-
tive movement in America. It
was hoped that Goldwater's
election campaign would serve
as a prime mechanism in con-
veying the conservative ideol-

Thefts Trouble
Kutz Evening
Coffee Hour

A "demi-tasse hour" was
instituted in the student lounges
connected with the dining
facilities at Kutz, Swig, and
Sherman on February 9. Demi-
tas.se sets including cup, saucer,
and spoon were purchased for
special use during the "hour"
which is from 6:00 to 7:00 each
night.

On February 16, the last of
the 18 cups, saucers and spoons
were stolen from Kutz Lounge
and Dean Zion ordered the
"hour" cancelled there. The
next day a notice was posted
announcing its discontinuance.
The notice was promptly stolen.

Sherman Dining Center has
also found itself missing china.
Mr. Cardillo of the dining hall
stafT stated, "During the first
week, an average of one set a
night was lost." Swig, however
has not had any sets "bor-
rowed."

ogy to the people. The results in
November clearly demonstrated
that either this message was
not getting through to the elec-
torate, or that, if it was, most
Americans were not accepting
it. Conservatives, says Nelson,
must accept the former view,
that somehow their message did
not get through; for they believe
their principles to be "eternal
truths" which, once understood,
would be affirmed by most men.
Nelson sees college YAF
groups as the best place to
carry out this re-evaluation.
College students, says Nelson,
are more concerned with think-
ing things through and finding
final solutions to problems.
This attitude would certainly
be helpful in remodeling YAF.
Campus YAF groups would
thus carry out three basic func-
tions. First, they would be self-
educational, giving their own
members a firm knowledge in
all areas necessary for arguing
effectively for conservatism.
Secondly, they would present
their views to their fellow stu-
dent through such activities as
lectures, films, and debates.
Finally, college YAF groups
would be concerned with think-
ing about more effective ways
of getting their message across-
and of improving their organ-
ization and the entire conserva-
tive movement.

Increased Security Protection

Follows Last Week 's Assault

An additional security guard will be on duty at all times during the night aa
a result of the beating of Stuart Forster by three unidentified boys near the Chai^eU
on the night of Sunday, February 14.

The new guard's task will be to patrol the campus on foot. In this job he sup-
plements a roving security car which has been continually patrolling all campus roads
at night.

The search for the assailants in the attack is being pressed by Waltham police
but has so far been unproductive.

However, Mr. Larry Kane, in charge of town-gown relationships, does not beh'eve
that the incident signals an immediate change in relations between the University and
the city. He attributes the beating to a national increase in violence of all kinds and
points to surrounding communities, such as Newton and Cambridge, in which delin-
quincy has been on the up-swing.
Forster, a resident of Sha

piro A, was released from the
Waltham Hospital on Friday,
five days after the attack. He
is in good condition and will

is a conspiracy and that Har-
vard men are using their nu-
merical superiority against the
Radcliffe girls." Miss Levine's
supporters contended that as a
recipient of a Harvard diploma,
conferred on her by "the Pres-
ident and Fellows of Harvard
College," she was entitled to
run.

Elliot Perkins, professor of
History, paraphrased the policy
of the opposition. "There are
certain traditional preserves of
the unfortunate male that
should still be preserved."

The primary election took
place Monday, January 18, be-
fore which the HCUA had
voted not to count any ballots
for Miss Levine. Tuesday Miss
Levine withdrew. "The whole

business is just getting too .sor-
did," she observed, "I will
withdraw before I become en-
tangled further in the grubby-
handed machinery of under-
graduate pomposity."

be printed dealing with an in-
vestigation of the News, that
the paper print a front-page
editorial by Pres. Case re-
butting its editorial of the pre-
vious week (which had strong-
ly implied that the administra-
tion had no respect for aca-
demic freedom), and that, un-
der the Constitution of the
Board of Student Publications
Prof. Taylor would check the
accuracy by prior reading of
all lead stories and editorials.
Editor - in - chief of the News,
Werner Bund.schuh, replied
that -he would print the two
articles, but that he could not
permit "censorship by prior
reading". Prof. Taylor implied
that Bund.schuh would be fired,
losing his full-tuition scholar-
ship.

At a special meeting Sun-
day, the BU Student Congress
stated that the administration
demands "would violate free-
dom of the press" and urged
withdrawal. Student Congress
also demanded that it should
become publisher of the News
instead of Pres. Case. They
then called for a rally on Tues-
day to inform students of the
situation. Student Congress
soon received the support of
the Ad Hoc Committee for Uni-
versity Reform. Students, be-
gan the circulation of a petition
supporting the Student Con-
gress proposals, and shortly
gathered over 3700 signatures

Budget Slashed;

Council Votes

Unanimously

student Council, meeting
Wednesday night, gave final ap-
proval to the budget cuts which
it had tentatively adopted two
weeks ago. The decision was
unanimous. The two week de-
lay had been granted to allow
the affected organizations to
appeal the reductions

The cuts were nicide in the
full year budget but were based
on fall term exr)endiiures No
organization which did not
show a large surplus last term
was alTected. The reductions do
not mvolve the entire amount
left over, so that the afTccted
groups will still be left with
more money to u.se this term
than they had <'xpected ba.scd
on their original spring term
allocations. On this basi.s, the
dorm fund, which so far has
spent only .$500 out of its
original allotment of $2400 for
the year, will be cut by .$500.
This means that the fund will
have $1400 left for use during
the spring term.

Council Treasurer Frank
Bloch '66, stressed the need for
fi.scal flexibility, especially re-
garding individual allotments
to residence halls through the
dorm fund. While ideally, un-

In our <.iK>ninK e<litorial we felt it necessary to state
our ,h"s ton .n tht issue which has ck-c up. ed so much of
the Justice's time in the past: the strutrple w.th the uni-
versity bureaucracy. This is not a preoccupa .on of m.rs
its traditional im,>ortance, however Pj;^™^^;;'' "^ *^^Xt

Case Dismissed

Every year at this time, the
future of the Student Council
looks very bright. But as the
year goes on, the campaign
promises of the candidates are
forgotten; the Student Council
works with neither direction
nor conviction of purpose.

Both of my opponents have
outlined positive programs in a
previous issue of the Justice.
Although most of these pro-
grams are good ones, they have
for the most part been dis-
cussed before. It has never been
a problem at Brandeis that
there were too few ideas to
keep a Council busy. The suc-
cess of the Council depends on
the ability of the president to
do his job as administrator and
as representative effectively.
It is quite evident at this point
that the key to the Council's
success is a realistic president.
Of all the programs which 1
have worked on with the ad-
ministration, those which were
presented clearly and which in-
telligently attacked specific
problems, received the most
cooperation. This council, if
little else, has set up the basis
for a real and effective system
of communication with the ad-
ministration. I want the coun-
cil to Uike full advantage of this
opportunity. At this point the
Council should not get tied
down with hitch-hiking sta-
tions and destination signs. We
must be intelligent and realis-
tic in our demands and we
should expect the same con-
sideration from the Adminis-
tration. .

The following proposal is an
example of the type of prograni
which Council can develop and
negotiate effectively. This pro-
posal is a combination of my
own ideas and suggestions
made to me by the student
body 1 feel that the only way
the Council can be truly rep-
resentative is by discussing all
programs with the Student
Body before they are adopted,
and if I am elected I plan to
follow this principle.

I would like to organize a
a conference with members of

the faculty and Administration
including representatives from
the dining halls and Buildings
and Grounds to discuss prob-
lems connected specifically
with the examination periods.
This conference should discuss
the following:

Dining Halls: More variety
in the meals. Longer break-
fast hours and coffee and do-
nuts every morning.

Registrar's Office: More flex-
ible examination schedule. Use
of smaller rooms for examina-
tions — fewer examinations in
Seifer. Strict rules of conduct
for proctors.

Educational Policies: More
courses in which final exami-
nations are not required. Read-
ing periods in those courses
which do require examinations.
Library: Longer hours dur-
ing examinations. More flex-
ible work schedules for student
workers. More study areas
around the campus.

B&G: No noisy cleaning
around the dorms nor around
the library, especially during
Spring exams. More lenient
parking regulations.

This is an example of the
type of program which Council
can successfully develop. It is
not enough that these programs
be created. These will not work
unless administered effectively.
This year, each council mem-
ber was assignee! to watch oyer
one or more of the Council s
active programs. Some of
Council's best programs failed
or faltered when Council mem-
bers did not carry out this
responsibility. Examples of th^
are the failure of the SPEAC
lecture program first semester
and the possible curtailment of
Northern Student Movement
activities second semester. Both
of these programs were the
responsibility of one of my op-
ponents, Bert Foer. Student
Council programs will fail un-
der this type of Administra-
tion. I have not and will not
allow this type of irresponsi-

Belief and Action

It has come to my attention
that .'^ome students are protest-
inji the decision of my seniors
in the Philosophy Department
not to renew my appointnrient.
There are questions of princi-
ple here which should interest
iill of us and I should like to
comment briefly on some of

them.

It is essential to the preserva-
tion of the institution of tenure
and the academic freedom
which it guarantees that the
senior members of the faculty
be held accountable only to
themselves for the junior ap-
pointments which they origi-
nate or terminate. The only
way to reach informed deci-
sions as to the suitability of
people for permanent positions
is to appoint these people for
short periods on the under-
standing that there is no pre-
sumption that the appointment
will be extended. This means
that the senior faculty must be
able to choose not to renew
junior appointments without
being requested to divulge the
reasons for their decisions. This
situation is to he distinguished
from decision to dismiss a
tenured faculty member, in
which case a full public ac-
counting is and should be com-
pulsory.

Student protest over failure
to renew a junior faculty mem-
ber can sometimes injure inno-

cent parties. As it happens 1
am leaving in an atmosphere
of mutual respect and with no
unpleasantness (Indeed, my
chairman has invited me to
start some new research which
the university would continue
to sponsor even though I would
not be on the faculty here) but
if there were any unpleasant-
ness about someone's termina-
tion, student protest could well
amplify it with disastrous effect
on the career of the departing
person.

In any event we must dis-
tinguish the students' welfare
from their preferences. In the
case of faculty appointments
their welfare should be given
profound consideration and
their preferences as far as pos-
sible ignored. Students are
notoriously poor judges of their
teachers and to grant signifi-
cance to their tastes in instruc-
tion is to invite a tyranny of
popularity which would sup-
press academic excellence.

1 am, of course, gratified by
the students' concern and flat-
tered that they think well of
me; I thank them even as 1 cen-
sure them. I must also thank
the administration for making
it possible for me to leave in
such excellent and distinguished

company.

John M. Vickers
Assistant Professor
of Philosophy

Last week, at the Brandeis
rally on Vietnam, Prof. Lubasz
pointed out the extreme cynic-
ism which the government
adopts in asking the American
people to believe its explana-
tions of events in Vietnam.
Aboard the bus to Washington,
I overheard several remarks
which indicate that even those
people who were willing to
make some sort of public pro-
test harbor their own cynicism
about the possible effectiveness
of their own action. With re-
gards to this cynicism concern-
ing protest, I would like to offer
some personal reflections upon
the nature of individual pro-
test action.

It is meaningless to attempt
to change the situation in Viet-
nam if you don't believe change
is possible. Action becomes
worthwhile only when you be-
lieve that change can be ef-
fected or when the purpose of
our action is solely to register
via protest your belief in the

injustices being done there.

If you privately are against
American Government policy
in Vietnam, but say nothing,
we cant know your belief. If
you register your protest ver-
bally we have some inclination
of where you stand but we
don't yet know the strength
of your bc^lief. It is only by
what you are willing to give
up that we establish the true
strength of your belief.

There were four hundred
people at the Nathan Seifer
Vietnam rally. They had to give
up an hour or two of study —
possibly a cup of cofTee at the
snack bar. Several people tele-
graphed or telephoned their
senators — a few cents. Some
wrote letters — paper, stamps.
Forty-four went to Washing-
ton — lost sleep, chills on the
line. Seven monks burnt them-
selves — seven lives. I cant
help wondering if people at
Brandeis are really concerned
about what our country is do-
ing in Vietnam.

To Arms!

In April, 1964, six Negro
teenagers were arrested in New
York for the murder of Margit
Sugar, a white second-hand
clothes dealer. There is evi-
dence that the "Harlem six"
liave been beaten in efforts by
police to force them to sign
confessions. The boys charge
that they were denied the right
to choose their own counsel.
They cannot afford a legal de-
fense, but a group of distin-
guished attorneys offered their

services. The court refused to
allow the attorneys to represent
them. All six boys now face
the electric chair.

Thursday, February 25, the
Brandeis May 2nd. Committee
will present Mrs. Mildred
Thomas and Mary llamm, two
of the mothers of the group,
who will speak on police ter-
ror in Harlem, particularly in
the case of the "Harlem six."
Also speaking will be William
McAdoo, a leader of the Har-
lem Defense Council.

The recent vicious attack
upon an innocent Brandeis stu-
dent by three "unidentified per-
sons" cannot remain unchal-
lenged. Let us state clearly the
facts of the case. This attack
was obviously carried out by
infiltrators, trained, equipped,
conspiracy. The Walthamese
have hitherto employed only
minor provocations (sneers, ob-
scene comments, snowballs) in
their attempt to drive us from
our rightful place in Waltham.
This attack, however, repre-
sents a now offensive and con-
stitutes at this time a crucial
challenge to the will and deter-
mination of Brandeis students
to remain in Waltham. If Bran-
deis is to retain face and pres-
tige in the academic world, it
must reply to this challenge

with initiative. We must retali-
ate with a measured yet firm
response to assure Waltham and
all other interested parties that
we are willing to sacrifice time,
effort, and academic excel-
lence, for safely and image.

The logical place to strike is
the Dunkin' Donuts shop on
Main Street. Anyone who has
been there recently can attest
to the fact that there is always
an over-abundance of Waltham
hoodlums in residence. They
periodically go in and out of a
door at the side of the counter,
marked private. Obviously, this
is not a doughnut shop (the
doughnuts are usually stale),
but a barracks and staging area
for further attacks on Brandeis.
It must be wiped out! An ex-
peditionary force utilizing all
available B&G equipment,

Council Strikes Back

During the course of the
campaign for Student Council
officers, the present Council
has come under severe criti-
cism. It is ironic that the
grounds for this criticism are
less valid this year than they
would have been in any pre-
vious year.

Essentially, the criticism
aimed at the Council is a
charge that the Council, ob-
sessed with its own "militancy"
and "negative" attitude to-
ward I presume, the adminis-
tration, has not displayed "vig-
orous and imaginative leader-
ship" and achieved positive
gains in the realm of student
living conditions. Allow me to
enumerate just a few of the
programs this Council has in-
stituted in cooperation with the
administration (Need I add, in
spite of our alleged militancy
and ideologically-obsessed poli-
cy of non-cooperation.) In the
realm of the dining facilities.
Council has set up the "sit-
down-dinner" program, the
coffee hour, the hot meal al-
ternative (to be announced
shortly), and made it possible
to eat in any dining hall. The
Council Housing Committee
drew up last year's housing
program including freshman
reintegration, the success of
which has caused the adminis-
tration to put housing into the
students' hands again and to
request a further increase m
integration. The social life of
the dorms, wherever they
availed themselves of the pro-
gram, has been improved by
the dorm money program.
Great strides have been made,
under Council leadership, to-
ward strengthening the Facul-
ty-Associate Program. Council
directed the student committee
which helped design and plan
the proposed Student Union. In
spite of the obstacles of student
apathy and the timing of the
administration policy, the
Council was able to collect suc-
cessfully and enforce the Stu-
dent Activities Fee. And last,
but certainly not least, the
Council began a dialogue con-
cerning a tripartite govern-
ment. Starting with an ideal
conception to establish our
viewpoint and begin the mean-
ingful discussion with the other
*;egments of the University, the
Council then pursued the issue
and is now about to enter into
a tripartite committee to .study
the problem and draw up a
university government plan.

In sum, the Council has in-
itiated more positive programs
than perhaps any previous
council. Further, the Council s
policy, as opposed to the view
that it was a position of nar-
row-minded ideology and mili-
tancy, was an attempt to create
a position of strength from
which we would be able to
enter into negotiation and posi-
tive, productive dialogue witn
the administration If anythmg,
I would say that the Council s
failures of the past year lie
not in the area of positive pro-
grams but in that ideological
commitment and student unity
in abstract, long-range issues.
Any criticsm, however, to the
effect that the Council has not
been able to or has not bother-
ed to work closely with the
administration for the improve-
ment of student life is simply

not founded in fact. „_. -^

1. What arc your qualifica-
tions for President of Student
Council? What experience do
you have in student affairs?
Bloch:

Since I have been at Bran-
deis, I have served on the
Council Budget Committee, on
an Administration committee
on Brandeis relations, and I am
now serving as Treasurer and
member of the Student Council
executive board. I fully under-
stand the problems of Council
as well as its potential. I have
worked in one way or another
with all branches of the Uni-
versity. I have had experience
with the workings of the Ad-
ministrative and financial as-
pects of Council. My experi-
ences with the Administration
include many successes in co-
operation and negotiation on
Student Council programs.

Evans:

Academic reasons did not al-
low me to run for Council last

the amount of time necessary
to be a responsible Council

year, on my own initiative, I
have gone before Student
Board of Review to protect tiie
rights of students against Coun-
cil action. All three times, I
was successful. The first case
prohibited the Council from at-
tempting to collect the Activ-
ities Fee unconstitutionally,

3. What measures do you
feel Council should take to in-
crease the student role in ad-
ministrative decisions?

Bloch:

At this time, the Council
should direct its efforts toward
the formation of a tripartite
committee which would insure
a student voice in all decisions
which directly affect our indi-
vidual academic and social
lives. We cannot wait for a cri-
sis in order to be active. Coun-
cil needs a committee in which
it can believe. The Environ-
ment Committee was not such
a committee: it was an admin-
istration subterfuge designed to

tivities fee should be collected
in the spring through a system
allowing more time to plan ex-
penditures. Our funds are lim-
ited; they must be distributed
with meticulous care.

Foer: The Student Activity
Fee must be kept in student
hands. A much larger portion,
however, should be allocated
to the dorms, Whereas the so-
cial committee or its successor
should be cut back. This is es-
sential if our money is to be
used by the maximum number
of people in the ways they
themselves desire. Non-func-
tioning organizations should,
of course, have their budgets
reduced, while the maximuin

ulty members are interested in
student problems and Bran-
deis, but the students must pro-
vide the initiative.

Evans:

The faculty associates pro-
gram is only a beginning. If
students are dissatisfied with
their faculty relationships, this
should be voiced by the Coun-
cil to the Dean of the Faculty,
department chairmen, and in-
dividual professors. There are
no sure-fire proposals that can
be made in this area, but I am
convinced that, if the faculty
is made aware of the problem,
it will take measures to remedy
it. The initiative must come
from students, as well as the
Council.

Foer:

In addition

number of new groups and new present Faculty Assoeii^les pro

ideas should be supported. If
the Student Activity Fee is to
be collected in the future, it
will have to be enforced now.

The second involved the elec-
tion rules which were subse-
quently clarified. My oppo-
nents' proposals now cannot
override their failure to intro-
duce most of them this year.
Experience per se qualifies no
one, especially if. in Oscar
Wilde's words, it is the name
given to one's mistakes.

Student Council opinion in thi.s
committee was ridiculed and
bypassed. In a vote last spring,
my opponent, Bert Foer, was
the only council member who
voted to remain on this com-
mittee. Council must work out
a tripartite committee which
will avoid these problems.

not been without failure. The

others have been extremely

Administration seems willing
to consider student opinion
seriously, but student opinion
must be heard on more than
one or two issues.

Foer:

We need to develop a strong-
er base of power, not in order
to destroy the Administration,
but so that we can negotiate
from a position where we will
have to be listened to. This re

that students could have the
option, for example, to take
four courses, three with four
credits each, and one with three
credits.

Evans:

I would propose first that the
begin to consider (.edu-
cational policy, by at least
forming the Educational Poli-
cies Committee. Even this was
not done this year. Such pos-
sibilities as trimester, four-

number of professors to become

7. What arc your attitudes
towards Brandeis social life
and what realistic steps would
you propose to improve it?

Bloch:

I feel that the social situa-
tion at Brandeis has been im-
proved, both through the Dorm
Money program and new small-
er activities such as Friday
Night Movies. In addition. Stu-
dent Council has '..wrought and

quirements should be discussed pendently as well as in coop-

posals should be made to the

of the Faculty, and constant
discussion should take place.

few

Evans:

No The fact that so
students are even aware of the
Council's activities is in it-
self strong evidence of failure.
Last year the administration
could be blamed for student
alienation; this year the Coun-
must take much of the re-

thirds of the students by pur-
suing the policies of the other
third. It should work closely
witli the other elected officers
of the student l>ody. It should
establish contacts with friendly
alumni, and should make per-
sonal contacts with leaders of
other student bodies. This
could be done at a seminar
here, at which lime we can
discuss ways of expanding the
student role in decision-making.

4. What budget revisions do
you favor in terms of both rev-
enue and expenditure?

Bloch:

answer to explain the Council's
total failure, but I do not be-
lieve that the contention is
valid. We can at least make an
honest attempt.

Foer:

Our overriding objective
should be to reverse the trend
toward mass education. Too lit-
tle emphasis is placed in this
"small" school on the training
of individuals. Our faculty "ad-
visers," for example, should be
replaced by tutors, who could
work with a small number of
individuals throughout their
four years.

concerned, I feel that my nego-

encourage to increase personal
contact between .students and

for Departmental aid for do- -jtilutional and non-institutional,
partment clubs, such as biology Through established organiza

tions such as faculty associ-

vice Bureau and the Adminis-
tration. We need coordination
and timing and variety of
events. This can be achieved
by running an effective iKiok-
ing system and possibly
through a central Social Com-
mittee including dorm repre-
sentatives.

Evans:

I don't think there has been
a candidate in the last five
years who has not made exten-
sive promi.ses in this area. We
must realize that .social life de-
pends as largely upon llie in-
itiative of small groups as it
does on the Couiicil The in-
crea.sed funds we can obtain
through matching, and im-
proved coordination of campus
activities can provide tlie
means. It cannot provide the
actual activities. Social com-
mittee cannot expand its ac-
tivities without receiving in-
creased funds. Plans for .social
activities must be more careful-
ly weighed. Members must be
chosen with care. The Coun-
cil's responsibility is to provide
the im|>elus and resources for
.social activity.

Foer:

Brandeis probal)ly qualifies
for some kind of Federal funds
as a socially depres.sed area.
But our problem is not money,
nor is it apathy — it's lazine.ss.
We can't conUnuo to depend on
a hard-working Social Commit-
tee to provide all our activities.
This is no longer a small, phy-
sically unified campus; in ef-
fect, it is three, maybe four
campuses. Social activities
must be organized on the level
most responsive to the desires

of the individual student and
his friends, namely the dorm
and the quad. Council, through
a Calendar Committee, sliould
do the general plaivning and
coordinate all campus events,
but the dorms must retain the
responsibility for determining
what kind of activities are de-
sired and for making them
work. Council, of course, would
continue to provide movies and
a number of other all-school
functions. Student Service Bu-
reau should Ik» more fully
utilized.

8. What steps would you
favor to improve relatione with
the local community?
Bloch:

A barlx^d wire fence and
better security. At this iH>int,
it seems quite clear that little
can be done on a short-tertn
basis. And the fact remains that
students must be protected. In
the long run. I feel that there
is every po.ssibility of improv-
ing relations with the Waltham
community Council has been
asked to work with the City on
the Job Corps program, and
existing Council programs such
as Charity Week can be bencTi-
cial to the situation.

Evans:

The Student Council cannot
be expected to improve rel i-
tions with Waltham. Our ditfi-
cu Ities do not come from the
City Council, but from ele-
ments of the population that
are not afiected by good -will
measures. This does not mean
that such measures should be
abandoned; only that they are
insufficient. Brandeis students
deserve a capable, efficient .se-
curity system to firmly discour-
age such incidents as happiMi-
ened last week. The pressure
for such security can come from
Council. It should not have
been necessary to wait so long.
Foer:

This is an area for Adminis-
tration initiative (and spend-
ing), but I would be quite will-
ing to cooperate in their pro-
grams. I have already suggested
to the Justice editors that they
devote a series of articles to a
serious analysis of Waltham,
since we understand the city
no better than it understands
us. Better relations and better
understanding, however, take
time; our immediate concern
must be to protect our.selvea
from further threats to our
safety.

9. What changes if any
would you propo.se in the Stu-
dent llnion constitution?

Bloch:

As evidenced by the prol>-
lems Council had with the con-
stitution thio year, it is quite
clear to me that the problem
does not simply lie in Consti-
tutional Revision. There is a
delinite need for an under-
standing between the Student
Council and the Student Board
of Review concerning matters
of Constitutional interpretation.
Therefore I would call for a
conference between these two
groups As I stated in the Jus-
tice last week, there should be
a standing conmiittee of council
to fit the Constitution to cur-
rent prot)l('ms and to work on
Constitutional review.

Evans:

I propose not minute .specif-
ics, l)ut a comprehensive re-
analysis of the whole range of
student activities, and the or-
ganization of student govern-
ment. The various elements of
student activity, the Council,
the clubs, tli(* committees, el isa
officers and the Student Board
of Review should be coordi-
nated and directed The Consti-
tution must not represent the
interests of only a few; it must
be the product of a broad base
of student opinion. While both
of my opponents now agree on
the need for constitutional re-
vision, neither of them saw fit
to undertake this difficult task
during the past year. It is now
time to do the job.

Foer:

I do not propose any further
changes Our Constitution is so
outdated, so confusing, so
riddled with half-forgotten
amendments, thai only a total
redrafting will lie worthwhile.

In his strikingly original and
penetrating fashion R a w i c z
seeks also to illuminate the
attitude of the Jews. With the
use of ironic, "black comedy"
he treats the subject of self-
deception by relating it to past
Jewish experiences. Rawicz re-
calls that, "The race which for
thousands of years has been
boasting that one day a true
Messiah will emerge taintless
from its midst has in the mean-
time produced a whole pleiad
of Messiahs false, semigenuine
and suspect. Rawicz's satire in
this instance is double-edged.
On one level he is quite ob-
viously showing the perhaps
peculiarly Jewish ability to de-
ceive themselves into believing
that the future is bright. Yet at
the same time Rawicz's ironical
posture cannot conceal the fact
that the Jewish history of
♦•false Messiahs" is itself a re-
sponse to a history of persecu-
tion and humiliation. Rawicz
spares no one the "bite" of his
humor — neither victim nor
executioner. But beneath his
wit there is revealed a solemn
and profound understanding
and sympathy, the unbreakable
attachment of the author him-
self to the plight of the perse-
cuted Jews. . ,
For Rawicz the main way of
coping with the "holocaust' is
by making it into a bizarre, of-
ten grotesque, comedy. As in
Dr. Strangelove the use of
comedy heightens the "night-
marish" quality of the events
described and thus radically
sets them apart from all ordi-
nary events. As Leo L., the
Head of the Sacred Community
in Boris' town, remarks: "(I
am) participating in the thea-
trical event of a lifetime. This
is just how Rawicz treats the
"holocaust," as a "cosmic mise
en scene." It is no wonder that
Rawicz has been compared with
Kafka for they have both cho-

The Jewish characters of the
first part of the novel are, thus,
essentially comic creations. Yet
each of them strikingly reflects
an aspect of the total Jewish
reaction to the historical ex-
perience. Mr. Garin is the latest
"false Messiah." He "preached
work, as the one, infallible
method of surviving" and his
"workshops" were reputed to
be safe havens from the grip of
the Nazi invaders. Of course,
when the Big Sweep comes the
Jewish labourers in the "work-
shops" are not spared. The sim-
ple faith of Garin and his
disciples is not shared by Boris
who succinctly sums up the en-
tire question involved in Jew-
ish self-deception: "I did not
believe in Garin's message . . .
I could imagine a situation
from which there is no way

out." „^ ^.

In all of Blood From The Sky

there is no such thing as per-
sonal heroism. Rawicz's artistic
vision has the logic of a dream.
Character's actions are only ex-
plainable in terms of psycho-
logical necessity if they are ex-
plainable at all. Individuals are
trapped by their circumstances
and because they cannot fully
comprehend these circum-
stances their actions seem to us
to lack the ordinary degree of
moral sensibility. Rawicz makes
Dr. Cohen into a cynical, pure-
ly pragmatic figure. Yet he re-
fuses to judge him for it and
the reader cannot help but feel
sympathy for Cohen, especially
when the Nazis invade his hos-
pital, his house of illusions, and
evacuate its inmates for the
purpose of exterminating them.

Tom Kahn, from the Leai^ue

tioned our definition of civil
rifi'its, insisting that it include
huusinK. jol)s, aud schools.

At the next panel on Politi-
cal Or^ani-'ation Stat\ley Aron-
ovvilz called altentien to the
Freedom Democratic Party.
From this base, he called for a
revolutionary liiird party coali-
tion of all the dispossessed:
black, while, urban, rural.
Norman Hill spoke about the
broader - based socio - economic
problems which any political
ortiani/.ation would have to en-
compass. In order to deal with
the power structure on such
issues as housing and schools,
you need power which can
only come from an organiza-
tion of the masses in the im-
poverished sectors of the cities.
Such a coalition would break
out of the Johnson box of "re-
sponsible liberalism" William
Strickland reiterated these
points. He stated that this
movement of the poor would
not have the "father image"
leader, but would organize
around the issues. From these
struggles, leadership would
emerge. If the mass of Negroes
are not in this movement yet,
it might be because this move-
ment does not alTect the needs
of the ghetto.

The Community Organization
panel tried to answer some of
the questions posed by the first
two panels: which means are
the correct ones and how does
any nieihod alTect the desired
ends The first speaker was
Kermit liailer, who descibed
the Federal Government's rolo
in the housing problem. He
stated that his agjncy only
"provides the tools lor indus-
tries, balks and local govern-
ments to miplement urban re-
newal projects in ways they
deem des rable. After the cities
have adhered to a minimum
code which the Gc/vernment
sets, they are free to do as they
please.

man holds enough political
l>ower to maintain Harlem's in-
dependence from New York's
Mayor Wagner and his organi-
zation. He had noted earlier,
"we have no bargaining power
as long as we are tied to the
Democratic Party."

Gray was questioned about
the scarcity of intellectuals
within the ghetto. "What would
you say about Bayard Rustin?"
he was a s k e d. The answer
came quickly: ''Nothing." Not-
ing a dissatisfaction with that,
Gray added, "He has no follow-
ing," and went on to the next
question.

About his own political posi-
tion, "I'm a Socialist by cir-
cumstance; so will all the black
folks Ix? socialists by circum-
stance." "I'm sorry they
stopped calling me red," Gray
added, emphasizing his belief
that this is more of an asset
than a liability in the ghetto.
* * *

Jesse Gray calls himself a
socialist and a revolutionary,
and although he may be right
on the first, he is certainly not
correct on the second classifi-
cation, if we take his remarks

an with five children, who was
harassed, evicted and even
framed on a false assault
charge, because she tried to or-
ganize her tenement building.
Mr. Hayden reiterated the need
for a permanent organization of
the masses to fight for the re-
quired changes.

Jesse Gray was the last
speaker on the panel and a
similar speech he gave at Bran-
deis on Monday is reported
elsewhere in The Justice.

These panel discussions were
followed by a series of sem-
inars. The topic of the seminar
I attended was "Youth." It was
led by Julian Houston of Bos-
ton University who has worked
with youth in Harlem. He de-
scribed his attempt to organ-
ize a block to develop a
vacant lot into a neighborhood
project under the Ilaryou-Act
program. He worked with un-
employed drop-outs who said
of school, "we can't get a job
anyway, so what is the sense?"
The discussion shifted to prob-
lems encountered after the
summer ends. Where do they
get a job? You can't talk very
much about unemployment in
Harlem without talking about
national unemployment. In
turn, jobs, housing- schools, and
the psychological and sociologi-
cal phenomena which enter this
vicious cause — effect cycle
must be dealt with on the na-
tional scale.

On Sunday morning, M r .
Noel Day delivered a closing
speech, which can best be re-
lated by a paraphrase of his
core idea: President Johnson
calls for a "Great Society," we
do not. We seek a "Human
society."

at face value. He claims that
the rent strikes are a cnallenge
to "the entire concept of prop-
erty-fir.st," but tlie claim is
just not valid. Gray stated in
this way tlie principle on which
the strikes were based: "You do
not pay for what you don't
get." This is a form of an in-
trinsic element of liie free en-
terprise-private property sys-
tem; the sanctity of a comnu'r-
cial contract. The tenants who
do not receive services which
the landlord is legally obliged
to provide may refuse to fulfill
their part of the agreement: the
payment of rent. And the
courts, institutions created to
uphold the institutions that
make up the free enterprise
system, must support the ten-

ants in this.

Gray's position on the leader-
ship of the civil rights move-
ment is more reasonable than
revolutionary. Further pro-
gress in the solution of prob-
lems peculiar to the black
g'hetto will come most often
through political action of the
voting-booth variety. Gray put
►it nicely: "If the ghetto held
400,000 votes as a bloc, Harlem
would have respect all over
New York."

Historically, political leader-
ship positions in areas com-
posed of members of "minority
groups" liave been filled by
politicians of the same ethnic
background as their constitu-
ents. A Negro could probably
not succeed in organizing a
predominantly Irish or Italian
neighborhood, and there is no

reason to believe that an aspi-
ring Jewish, WASP or Irish
civil rights leader would be
any more successful in organiz-
ing for political action the resi-
dets of Harlem. And a would-
be civil rights leader who is
imable to marshal strong polit-
ical support is not likely to be
successful in gaining political
concessions on civil rights
issues.

Jesse Gray says he is a re-
volutionary (and he probably
says it more often and louder
on 125 Street than in Golding
Auditorium) but mention "po-
litial i>ower" and he thinks of
voting strength and City Coun-
cil legislation, w*hile "economic
change" brings to mind im-
provements in housing condi-
tions. Jesse Gray and Michael
Curley have more in common
than either would realize.

Correction

To the Justice:

Re the article in the Febru-
ary 16 Justice by Robert Acker,
entitled Vietnam Rally at
Seifer, I was one of the 280
persons who left the rally fol-
lowing Professor Marcuse's
speech. 1 was also one of the
40 Brandeis students to partici-
pate in the Boston Common
demonstration. It was an un-
fair generalization on the part
ol Robert Acker to cite the ''un-
willingness to act that resulted
in, among other things, the
exit of nearly half of the 560

people after the talks." Many
of the persons who left at that
time (10:00) had heard enough
to decide their course of action,
and needed no further impetus.
Most of them stopped before
leaving Seifer to sign the peti-
tion and donate money for the
cost of the bus and/or telegram.
Still others were among those
who demonstrated in Boston.
The fact that many people
found it necessary to leave
early, for one rea.son or an-
other should not be used to
accuse these same persons ol
"unwillingness to act."

way of life with a cultural-
ethnic tradition as well as a re-
ligious one; from this view-
point, it is completely mean-
ingless to tell Jews to do what
is "Jewish under Jewish aus-
pices and general community
things under community aus-
pices"— what the ACJ does not
understand is that for many
non-religious Jews to do what
is "Jewish" is precisely to do
certain "community things."
Very simply, the ACJ which
accuses the Zionist movement
of narrowness, does not allow
for atheists within the Jewish
group, while the Zionist move-
ment does.

The problems Mr. Sussman
raised are not simple ones.
While the majority of Amer-
ican Jews are in basic disagree-
ment with his stance, certain
of his points are relevant — not
because of an intrinsic "right-
ness" or "wrongness" but be-
cause of a continuing state of
imresolvedness, i.e. the legal
international status of a Jew.
Perhaps the most meaningful
of his points was that of the
growing detachment of the
Jewish intellectual: this was to
an extent substantiated at the
symposium itself when no ef-
fective Zionist response to his
position was made. What was
most disappointing to this
writer was that while Mr. Suss-
man did convincingly suggest
that Jewish nationalists might
have alienated segments of the
Jewish group, no one at the
meeting — but for one abortive
attempt — was able to expose
the conceivable harm the ACJ
might have precipitated in the
relationship of American Jews
to the greater community by
its negotiations with both the
Arab countries and the U. S.
government.

two free throws to ice it for
Kings Point.

It was a real heartbreaker
for the 450 partisan fans on
hand last Saturday night. The
Judges fought back from a
nine point half-time deficit, 47-
38. to tie the game up, 62-62,
with 9:30 left in the second
half on a jump shot by Dave
Epstein.

Brandeis enjoyed a five-
point spread, 71-66, with 4:45
remaining on the shooting of
Barry Zimmerman and Richie
HymoflF. The 5-10 Hymoff
broke through the Kings Point
defense to score twice in the
closing minutes on twisting
lay-ups.

But Kings Point put together
a string of seven straight points
to retake the lead, 74-71. The
Mariners' drive was led by big
Jim Lavine, a 6-5 center. Capt.
John Tompkins and McKay.

The Judges tied it up at 74-
74 on a free throw by Hymoff
and a fantastic drive by Santo
Cimino with 2:50 left. Tomp-
kins converted one of two free
throws to give Kings Point a
one-point lead with 2:00 left.

neath to leave the Mariners
ahead, 77-76, with 42 seconds
to go.

The Judges failed to capital-
ize on easy shots on Olin's set
play and after McKay added
two free throws, a jumper by
Dave Epstein was anti-cli-
mactic as the Judges succumbed
79-78 for their 17th straight
loss.

High scorers for Brandeis
were Zimmerman with 22 and
Hymoff with 21. Zimmerman
played with a badly-bruised
toe but still managed to lead
all scorers. Hymoff was dead-
ly from the free throw line,
13-16, and engineered the
Judges drive into the lead.

Cimino played his best
game of the year with 17 points
and eight rebounds. Cim was
six for nine from the floor and
scored key baskets. Jack Rov-
ner pulled in ten rebounds and
scored seven points. Dave Ep-
stein added eight.

For the Mariners Capt.
Tompkins had 19 points, mainly
on short jumpers. Jim Lavine
had 13 points and combined

Kahn and Gunther Keitel each
had eight.

Although the Mariners had
the height, they outrebounded
Brandeis by only eight. But
they made the shots when they
counted. Brandeis shot 49 per
cent from the floor and 79 per
cent from the foul line to Kings
Point's 47 and 61.

In the freshman contest, the
Brandeis squad closed out its
season with a one and 12 rec-
ord as the hoopsters bowed to
Chamberlayne Junior College
69-48. Charlie Novagrodsky led
all scorers with 15 and Eliot
Goldberg had 13.

The Judges played much better basketball last week
perhaps the best of the season. But they lost three more

Good Guys, Grads, Bites
Lead Intramural Leagues

"The play's the thing".

rpu • i , , , Shakespeare — Hamlet

A 1, Pe,^»"^^amural basketball league last week was as
dull to the observer as is a Friday afternoon chemistry
lecture to a fme arts major. With the exception of the
New Old Lompocks' 54-42 upset victory over the Titans,

in which Bob Zuckerma n»*— - __:

scored 22 points, there were
neither surprises nor close
games. In the intramural

league, just as in an oligarchic
society, the rich kept getting
richer and the poor kept get-
ting poorer.

In the A league. Gene
Booth's 19 points for the Fac-
ulty was not enough to stop the
league - leading Good Guys,
paced by Bill Rubin's 20. The
Good Guys took that game 45-
35 and two days later van-
quished Cherry Memorial 42-
31. The second place Trojans
downed ever hopeful Cherry
Memorial 29-19 and then clob-
bered the Faculty 50-31 as
Dave Gerstcl got 26 points.

In the B North league, the
defending champion Grads
cracked the 18 Nuts 33-25. It
was a bad week for the Nuts as
they also lost to the Nads, this
time 32-23. Finally, the Titans,
fired up after their upset loss,
defeated the Pistons 38-28 in a
battle for third place.

In B South action, the Proph-
ets predicted a 56-36 loss to the
A-Nickations. Their soothsay-
ing proved to be far superior
to their ball playing as Eric
Lemberg got 23 points for the
losers. In a defensive battle.

79-78.

Against mighty Boston Col-
lege (17-6) the Judges put up
a good fight before a SRO
crowd of 1300 at Shapiro Gym.
The Eagles played without
high-scorer John Austin who
was sidelined with a sprained
right wrist.

The Eagles went up to a 7-0
lead as they controlled the
opening tap and both boards.
But the Judges came roaring
back on the playmaking of
Richie Hymoff to a three-point
deficit, 19-16, with ten minutes
to go. But then Coach Bob
Cousy's second team, led by
George Humann and Bob Rossi,
began to click and pulled away
to a 35-19 half-time advantage.

The Judges shot an ane-
mic 30 percent from the flopr
to BC's 58 percent. The Eagles
outrebounded Brandeis 57-25.

High men for Boston College
were Rossi with 16, Humann
and Doug Hice with 13 apiece
and Ted Carter with 10.

Hymoff was high for
Brandeis with 15 points. Dave
Epstein poured in ten. Santo
Cimino played a fine game and
scored eight points. Barry
Zimmerman was held to eight
points by Bob Furbush, a Wal-
tham product.

Scoring leaders for the Blue

70 points, Naomi Lasdon with

Judy was high "man" against
B.C. with 18 points, while
Naomi contributed 9.

In the Boston State contest
Pat Rosenthal was the scoring
leader with 12 points as she hit
four straight buckets. Naomi
and Judy each had eight. The
Judgettes led at halftime 11-2
but the Boston State charges
got hot for three straight points

a two-point halftime lead in
the Springfield game. But the
Maroons pulled away with a 21-

half to hand the Judges num-

Springfield took a 4-0 lead
as Santo Cimino deflected a
Maroon pass into their hoop.
Later on Larry Buell returned
the favor by tapping in a loose
ball at the Judges hoop. Bran-
deis was behind thruout but
gained the lead on a steal by
Zimmerman and a follow-up by
Cimino.

Judges. Richie Epstein had
nine points.

Three to g^o

The Judges have three more
games this season. They travel
up to Vermont this weekend to
face Norwich and Vermont,
and round out the season
against hapless Amherst on
Mar. 3. If the Judges are going
to avert the worst year (2-18),
they will have to win all three.
But I can only wish for the
inipossible. The long season
will soon be over and we can
begin thinking of next year —
of easier opponents, improved
ballplayers and the incoming
freshmen.

As for the freshmen, they
quietly ended the season amidst
a brawl against Chamberlayne
with a 69-48 loss. In the other
games last week the freshmen
lost to an undefeated Boston
College freshmen quintet 94-
38 and to Springfield 75-54.

In the BC game the Eaglets
took an early lead and ran up
a 49-18 halftime margin. Coach

Outgoing Council Me€ts\^\QQ\i Wil
To Complete Business Barlcin

Student Council met last week to clean up its leftover
business. However, much time was spent debating issues
concerning last week's election. Many of the committee
reports that were to be discussed will be heard at tomor-
row night's meeting, the last of the outgoing Council.

The actual meeting was preceded by a heated debate

between council member Bert-^

Foer, '66, and Treasurer Frank
Bloch, also '66, then candidates

for Student Council President,
over a letter by Bloch printed
in last week's Justice. The let-
ter intimated that Foer was
negligent in his duties as coun-
cil representative to two cam-
pus organizations, SPEAC and
the Northern Student Move-
ment. SPEAC, a group which
seeks to bring controversial
speakers to campus, was largely
inactive last term. NSM, on the
other hand, overspent its budget
allocation and was in some fi-
nancial difficulties. Foer, charg-
ing that he had been accused
without a chance to reply in
print, claimed that Bloch's "al-
legation was not backed up by
any facts," and that the curing
of the ills of these organizations
was not his duty.

The meeting itself began with
a report from the Chairman of
the Publicity Committee, Nor-
ma Goldstein. According to her,
the recent liberalization of the
election publicity rules was
costing council $8 per candidate
and placing a great strain on
the resources of her committee.
She therefore suggested an-
other change in the rules, re-
stricting the use of council
elections publicity material to
contests for positions on the
council's executive board and
the Student Board of Review.
The proposal, passed by a vote
of 9-0-1, was the third piece of
legislation approved by council
in three weeks dealing with
this subject. The first of these
was to maintain the status quo,
the second to increase the
amount of publicity, and now
the third, to reduce the amount
of publicity.

Flood of Reports

Next followed the first wave
of a deluge of reports peculiar
to end of term meetings. Among
the more interesting were the
eulogy for the old Educational
Policies Committee and a spe-
cial report on the frustra-
tions of the Gen Ed S pro-
gram. The accounts, both pre-
sented by Joel Stein, '65, were
tales of administrative opposi-
tion. The hostility of the deans
and the division of the faculty
ieself were seen as the reasons
for the inability of the EPC to

significantly improve faculty-
student relations. The blame for
the cancellation of several Gen
Ed S lectures and the refusal to
change the format of the dis-
cussions was laid at the feet of
President Sachar. Stein claimed
that the President had been un-
willing to change either the
time or style of the lecture se-
ries to make it easier for speak-
ers to come. As a result, sev-
eral important lectures had to
be called off.

The meeting was terminated
with the announcement that the
administration would handle
payment of the Student Activi-
ties Fee for students receiving
financial aid from the school.
The council had been trying to
settle this point since the ad-
ministration curtailed its col-
lection of the SAF last summer.

The next meeting of council
is scheduled for tomorrow night
at 7:00 P.M. in Mailman Hall.
The meeting, the last for the
old council, promises to be an-
other "bits and pieces" meet-
ing, dealing mainly with the
postponed club reports.

Frank Bloch defeated Bert Foer for President of Student Council in the execu-
tive board election on Friday, February 26. Bloch, the former Council Treasurer had
389 votes to 364 for Foer. Elliot Evans trailed with 195. After learning of his victory
Mr. Bloch said, "I appreciate the support I received during the election, and with con-
tinued supi>ort I feel the Council will prove to be successful. I am looking forward to
working with everyone this year."

In the only easily decided contest, Roger Barkin soundly defeated John Seeley
for Vice-President, 512 to 354. Norma Goldstein edged out Eve Hhivaty in the count
for Secretary of Council, 333 to 299. Thais Courts came in third with 238 votes. After
a recount, Brian Marcus beat Bob Sherman for the office of Treasurer with 421 votes
to Sherman's 410.

The election was marked by heavy balloting with 70% of those eligible voting,

the heaviest turnout in the'K

school's history. However, there
were a large number of absten-
tions in all but the Presidential
race. Sherman had considered
contesting the election result
because of an alleged imperfec-
tion in a few of the ballots, but
finally decided to accept the
result of the recount.

All of the candidates ad-
dressed the student body at the
traditional speeches on Thurs-
day at Schwartz Hall. A for-
mer President of Student
Council, Vic Hausner '64, re-
turned to campus and attended.
Over 200 students heard the
speeches.

Visitors Exchange Views

Brandeis played host last weekend to a group of ex-
change students from St. John's, Howard, Franconia, and
Pembroke. The students arrived Wednesday, attended
classes on Thursday and Friday, had a luncheon with
Deans Morrissey and Zion, a meeting with Dr. Sachar,
and a reception with faculty members.

The philosophy instructor,

By SUSAN CLIPPINGER and DAVID GELFAND

Two weeks ago, on February 16, a fire gutted the COFO center in Laurel, Mis-
sissippi. Ben Hartfield, a twenty-year old civil rights worker from nearby Hattiesl)urg
reported: ''One thing for sure, it was not accidental, because the place had been ran-
sacked. We could tell because the office was not completely destroyed. The files had

Council Election

Takes Place

On Friday

Elections for Student Coun-
cil Representatives will be held
on Friday. March 5, from 10
a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Due to several
withdrawals, no primary elec-
tions will be necessary. The
candidates will give their
speeches on Thursday, March
4, in Schwartz Hall, starting at
7 p.m. Due to the Publicity
Committee's shortage of funds,
the candidates for representa-
tive will not be able to print
any blurbs.

The candidates from the
junior cla.ss are: Dennis Brunn,
Lois Galgay, Hillel Gcdrich,
Rima Kittner, Stevens Ochieng,
Joe Shuldiner, Tan Wee Ng,
Marty Weiner, and Allen Zer-
kin.

The sophomore candidates

built were torn down.

"Omega Johnson (a sixteen-
year-old girl who lives nearby)
.said that while lying in her
bed during the early afternoon
she had begun to smell smoke.
She said that she went to a
window and saw smoke rising
from the COFO house. Some-
one else immediately called
the fire department, but it took
the firemen about thirty min-
utes to get to the fire. (The
COFO office is a five-minute
drive from the fire station.)
When they arrived they first
tore down the door and then
began to .spray the office with
water. After exlingui.siiing the
fire, they went into the office
and began to tear apart every-
thing that had not been de-
stroyed by the fire. Omega said
that the firemen wore doing
more reading than firefighting.
They also were reported to
have taken all three type-
writers."

The fire did not come as a
surprise. As COFO activities
increased in Laurel, the resent-
ment of the local white resi-
dents had grown proportion-
ately. For weeks before the
fire white men could be seen
driving past the ofiTice, arousing
su.spicion because the office was

est Negro section of Laurel.

policy on non-publishing pro-
fessors was. Dr. Sachar replied
that he wanted to have creative
scholars on his faculty, mean-
ing men and women who are
productive in their fields as
well as fine teachers in the
classroom. St. Johns' clas.ses
are nearly all seminar, and
they asked Dr. Sachar about
the value of seminar versus
lecture classes. Dr. Sachar re-
portedly defended the large
lecture class quite strongly,
saying that he believed when
a profes.sor had something spe-
cial to offer in a classroom situ-
ation, he should offer it to as
many students as possible.

One girl from Pembroke,
Marilyn Friedman, said that
Brandeis was much more in-
formal than Pembroke in many
respects. At Pembroke, girls
must wear .skirts on the Brown
campus, and boys wear ties and
jackets for the slightest rea.son.

New Grading

Experiment

A change in the grading sys-
tem which would give profes-
sors the option of reporting
satisfactory / unsatisfactory
rather than a letter grade at

midsemester is now under con-
sideration by the faculty.

As.sociate Dean of Faculty
Black said that the change
would apply to fall term,
grades. He explained that
spring semester grades were
needed for seniors applying to
graduate .school. When asked
why the change is being con-
sidered he replied that such a
system would be essentially a
convenience for faculty mem-
bers. It would be especially
useful in 90 level and seminar
courses wliere it is not po.ssible
to as.sess the students' work ac-
curately in the first quarter.
Such a .system might also prove
beneficial for the students in les-
sening the crowding of mid-term

Prelates and Vickers

Vickers: I

As one of those protesting the
trend towiird a more imperson-
al and institutional university
exemplitied by the decision of
the Philosophy department not
to renew the appointment of
Dr. John M Vickers, I feel that
Dr. Vickers has misunderstood
the reasons for our protest. The
senior faculty erred in not re-
newing? his appointment, but
reversmg this decision is not
our goal. Rather, we wish to
ensure that in the future there
will be no similar disregard for
both student preferences and
student welfare. In protesting
Dr. Vickers' departure we pro-
test the departmental con-
sid(^rations that we feel re-
quired it.

The decision about Dr.

for no apparent reasons except
departmental (or university)
comfort and ambition. When 1

the loss of thoughtfulness in
universities and its replace-
ment by bureaucratic reason-
ing, in the faculty as well as in
the administration, who occupy
chairs and take salaries under
false pretenses. Their allegiance
is neither to the encouragement
nor to the protection of scholar-
ship. Consideration of prestige
lather than peiformance, of
comfort rather than compe-
tence, has no place in a uni-
versity. Nothing Dr. Vickers
said has convinced me that
these grounds for protest are
invalid.

Vkkers: III

Vickers: II

The case for a student voice
in the appointment of profes-
sors is based on the logic of
three fairly evident proposi-
tions:

1) The availability of excel-
lent teachers is an appropri-
ate and crucial concern of
the student body. Dr. Sachar
himself in his most recent
address to student leaders
(reported in the January
12 Justice) indicated that
the students' chief concern
should be getting a good
education. I submit that
good teachers are necessary
for a good education.
The availability of excel-
lent teachers is not in-
sured by faculty-adminis-
tration control over profes-
sorial appointments Facul-
ty and admini.-itration are
understandably interested in
drawing research grants and
acquiring top-name schol-
ars; unfortunately they often
neglect the undergraduate
student in their decisions.
The availability of excel-
lent teachers can only be
insured by student consul-
tation in faculty appoint-
ments. Oily tiie students can
have an undivided concern
for retaining good teachers
and for promoting a learn-
ing community.
The students, in short, must
realize that faculty and student
interests are not always identi-
cal. The teacliing ability of pro-

3)

The protests about Dr. Vick-
ers' dismissal, have, I think,
been a healthy sign for the uni-
versity as a whole, however
misguided Dr. Vickers himself
may feel they are.

In the first place I question
Dr. Vickers' contention that
students are notoriously bad
judges of good professors. It
seems to me that Brandeis stu-
dents do have a fairly sophisti-
cated idea of what is good
teaching and what is not. The
showmen at Brandeis may im-
press freshmen, but by junior
or senior year, most of us have
developed a sense for sound
scholarship. Even if we con-
ceded, simply for the sake of
argument, that a sounder schol-
ar might replace Dr. Vickers,
there are other criteria that
would have to be taken into ac-
count. One of these is his in-
terest in his students: Dr. Vick-
ers is teaching in addition to
his regular courses, two eve-
ning seminars, of which one is
non-credit.

>Jo reasonable .student would
want to see a "tyranny of popu-
larity." However the kind of
popularity linked with taking
Arthur Murray courses and
drinking Pepsi-Cola is not the
same thing as the popularity of
a good professor. It is not that
we think that Dr. Vickers is a
helluva good guy and there-
fore should be retained; we
think he should be kept be-
cause he has trt^ated his ma-
terial interestingly and com-
municated it well. He has im-
pressed his students with the
importance and relevance of
philosophy.

Since faculty do not as a
rule sit in on each others'
courses, students are in fact in
the best position to evaluate
the way in which a professor
teaches. Student interests and
students preferences are often
enough parallel that they should
be considered, and some pro-
ct dure for expressing Ihem
shouid be found.

The surveys now being cir-
culated about Dr. Vickers are
belter than nothing. I hope in
the next instance such (jues-
tionnaires will come before the
final decision and that some
weijjht will be given to student
opinion in the consideration of
the faculty.

presence uncom
cause of his de-
parture has to be precisely that
personal friction, "unpleasant-
ness," and departmental poli-
ticking he insists do not exist.
The growth of the department's
graduate program and the ap-
parent wish of its faculty to
make it one of the most out-
standing (i.e . famous) philoso-
phy departments in the country
require that it hire well-known
philosophers and prolific writ-
ers — many of whom work in
logic and philosophy of science.
Dr. Vickers' fields. It seems
plausible that Dr. Vickers must
leave to make room for more
prestigious names, and that
some sort of ailipatliy on the
part of the tenured faculty in
the department made it re-
luctant— despite evidently suf-
ficient funds — to keep both
Dr. Vickers and the new
"name" faculty member.

The purpose of tenure, as Dr.
Vickers points out, is to pre-
serve academic freedom, in-
cluding protection from out-
side witchhunts and inside poli-
ticking and prejudice. Those
with tenure are protected;
those who seek it are as vul-
nerable to at least inside pres-
sure as if facilities granting
tenure really did not believe in

Vietnam: LXV

By CAUL SHEINGOLD

1 would like to comment on recent statements made
concerning the "immorality" of American policy in Viet-
nam. I disagree with American i>olicy, but I believe that
the category of morality tends to confuse the issues that
are at stake.

If one is morally opposed to American policy one is

opposed to politics itself. For,4» - ^

instance, if we carry the moral Poor Politics

point of view to its logical con- i ,i: „ -^u 4 »-

, . , , ^ disagree with my country s

elusion, we would be forced to policy in Vietnam because I

m(Hally oppose the Vietcong disagree with its premise —

the notion that a communist
government in Asia is neces-

rebellion as well, for the basic
moral issues are equivalent:
people are being brutally killed
lor political reasons. One can
distinguish between American
and Vietcong actions, but the
reasons for doing so are politi-
cal; e.g. the Vietcong are na-
tives fighting to improve their
country; we arc foreigners who
arc unwelcome by the people
and who, if we are to be judged
by our actions, are unconcerned
with the life of the people.
Misguided

To call this a moral distinc-
tion is to call the President's
motives evil, whereas I would
call them misguided. More im-
portantly, if we view his mo-
tives as evil, wc are in fact,
rejecting the political frame of
reference. This is a tenable
position, but few who invoke
morality intend to take it. That
being the case, I contend that
the introduction of morality
merely confuses what are basic
political considerations and ob-
jections.

sarily evil and a threat to
America and "freedom" — and
because 1 believe that our tac-
tics are politically unjustilied.
For instance, a Vietcong attack
on an American billet does not
warrant an American attack
on North Vietnam. Our foreign
policy, and my reasons for op-
posing it, are obviously more
complex than this, but it is in
terms of these kinds of political
judgments that such a criticism
should be made.

Congres-sman Charles L.
Weltner of Geori^ia. Mr.
Weltner was the only repre-
sentative from the deep

Live In Fear

North Vietnam bears the
same relation to China as Po-
land to Russia — they are both
small countries living in con-
stant fear of domination by
their strong neighbor — yet we
have adopted a completely dif-
ferent policy there. The results
of this has been to drive North
Vietnam to greater dependence
on Russia and China, and gen-
erally to solidify communists
lluDUghout Asia.

We learned in Euro()e; why
not in Asia? We have lost

tion in exchange for the re-
sumption of normal trade rela-
tions with South Vietnam. The
National Liberation Front
wanted (and still wants) an in-
defXMident South Vietnam
linked in a neutralist belt with
Laos and Cambodia. Its recent
sending of a mi.ssion to Rus.sia
is an assertion of its independ-
ence from China. The U, S.
gives, as its reasons for not ne-
gotiating, that the National Lib-
eration Front is an invasion
force from North Vietnam and
China, and that the NLF will
accept no agreement unices it
receives a dominating role in
the government. The official
phraseology is that we mu.st
have a "position of s'trength"
to negotiate. Thus the contin-
uation of the war now.

President Kennedy gave the
American explanation for the
guerrilla war in a letter to
Diem: "The Communist re-
.<pon.se to the growing strength
and prosperity of your people
was to send terror into your
villages. . . ." The myth was
that the Viet Cong attacked be-
cause they were jealous of the
South's booming economy

on the issue. When the students
vote soundly defeated the
measure, it was dropped.

When the Administrative
Committee decided to hand
collection of the fee over to
the students a month later, it
thought it was doing them a
favor. It seemed to agree with
Mora's contention that collec-
tion of the funds would give
the Council new power and
prestige. The Committee was

controversy and caused talk of4»
a "New Brandeis."

We proceed with the knowl-
edge fhat the cla.ss of '68 is not
a homogeneous group — Frank
Bioch did gel some fresh-
man votes and there were a
couple of Goldvvater supnort-
ers. Yet, we believe that there
is a definite main.stream of
freshman thought. Our purpose
here is to briefly analyze this
mainstream of thought and
opinion

It has been cliarged that the
freshmen are apathetic and
apolitical. Critic s point (»ut
that less than half the class
voted in the sjxKrial freshman
ele<"tion before Chri.stmas vaca-
tion. The reason for this al-
leged student apathy, aside
from the obvious titne and pub-
licity deficiences, can Ik^ attri-
buted to a basic lack of under-
standing and comrnuni'-ation
between the freshmen and the
Student Council.

Forfeited Opportunity

In recent months wo have
forfeited another opportunity
for peace in Vietnam by refus-
ing to negotiate, despite the
fact that the international
scene was favorable to negoti-
ation. China's wish for trade

Larry Miller spoke against this
attitude; he would fight, if nec-
essary to preserve student
rights Five candidates sur-
vived the primary balloting:
Allan Goroll, Larry Miller,
Stanley Riemer, Phil Saporia,
and Roy Stevens. Two charac-
teristics distinguish Miller and
Saperia from the rest. Miller is
the only liheral in thf group;
Saperia, the only one living in
North.

Liberalism, to a freshman, is
the willingness to actively pro-
test Administration decisions.
The difference between liberal
and radical is the degree of ne-
gotiation involved.

Is the cla.ss growing more
liberal? Few freshmen are will-
ing to commit them.selves on
the question. Even liberals,
such as Rick Rapfogel. can only
say, "Miller's election was a

semes-
ter; they understand the .school
and their relation to it. yet they
refuse to commit them.selves.
Before I came hero all I had
ever heard about Brandeis was
its massive protests," .says Da-
vid Safir. This previous notion
was the rule rather than the
exception among freshmen and
tliey may still fear classifica-
tion as "protestors" and rebels,
if they abandon moderate po-
st tioti^.

Roger Gottlieb suggested an-
other answer. "Some freshmen
desire to make college sunilar
to high school." Non-expan-
sionist attendances result from
this desire. This attitude is un-
derstandable when one thinks
of high school days Most fresh-
men here were important per-
.sons there. High .school also
spells security of home and
family. Yet, it is unwise to
think of opposition to the "lib-
eral block" as seeiirity-s('(^king
high schoolers. The freshman
con.servative really wants to
work with the administration;
he and the freshman moderate
are determined to be heard.

No, the freshm;m class has
not shown an apprecijl)le gain

The liberals have polari/ed. tlu'

THE JUSTICE

Morcli 2, 1965

IV

The Hypochondriack

North-star, llypochundriack is

not a: I've staked owl a philo-
sophicjil position in the first
three eolunins. That being ob-
servant is worthwhile; that un-
dei standing how things work
helps, that personal strength to
seize aetion amidst eoniusion
is important. Anfl by implica-
tion that acting with style and
acting becoming to oneself are
nice.

But I don't live like that.
Who lives philosophically, save
lor a few self-justified maiden
aunts and an occasional monk?
And as I don't live like that, I
don't believe in the eflicacy of
the propositions 1 recommend
for the good life.

Every s<jlution to the main
problem of how to live carries
with it its own sub-problems.
To realize the problems of a
way of life is not necessarily to
ease them. For the realization
validates and legitimizes the
hassles unveiled by conscious-
ness, changing them from an-
noying ghosts of thought into
good solid elves. And no mat-
ter what choice our type set-
tles on, consciousness is our lot,
and it is desolating, though also
rewarding. Fight fire with fire,
and you really get a big fire.
Just you look at the pathos of
Aggie's vengeful faith.
The Agffie Story: Although a
country boy in niy brazen jun-
ior high school years, I fre-
quently made raids on New
York, usually accompanied by
my friend Freddy. Once de-
barked at Grand Central, we
would get down to business
with a willfulness which would
surprise you blase folk who
grew up in the city and don't
need to run around there. For
example, we spent no time in
anyone's apartment. I became
palsy with a man named Hu-
bert, who still runs a flea cir-
cus on 42nd St. One night, he
put me in a basket and ran
Bwords through it. Also, we in-
terviewed a lot of beggars, such
as Moondog and Lyla Tyflany,
who ran a "mid-western night
club" until widowed, and who
did live in the Carnegie Hall
Studio Apartments, now gone,
and who read psychometric vi-
brations and forecast the fu-
tures of the possessed. This is
just atmosphere, from which
you may conclude that we went
in for real shoddy third-rate
sensationjilism, especially when
it was institutionalized, as it
was in the case of IVloondog and
his blanket.

One night, in frail spirits, I
accompanied rambunctious
Freddy to Coney Island. First
1 was sliocked at the dirt and
the ripped flannel clothing on
people, and in the gutter. We
went into a tatoo parlor and
watched just what you might
expect, being that a guy who
had just finished, his girl, and
the other guy's girl berated the
other guy for not getting ta-
tooed, and then he relented and
did. We went on the roller
coaster and whip. I hate get-
ting thrown around by those,
and became of more fragile
mind than even when we start-
ed. A concomitant of that sort
of depression is that you get
artfully fine taste while feeling
it. You know with conviction
just what you can and can't do,
will and won't hear, eat, say,
think. It's a relieving junket
into the aesthetical world. Mid-
flight, we went into the freak
house.

I had been to see small time
frt»aks, and even recognized one
who had since been hired by
the concern under discussion.
But this was big lime ugliness.
The hairy woman was hairy.
The tatooed man had skin prob-
lems too. The basket case even
had his corners rounded. For a
quarter extra each, a barker
took a small crowd of us back
to see Aggie. ''Do not be
shocked, ladies and gentlemen,"
he said while clapping his
hands, "for what you are about
to see is merely medical reality.
Aggie is a happy thinking in-
dividual. But unlike the rest of
us, her bones never ossified
from the carteleginious state."
He pulled back a curtain and
there, sitting on the small stage,
was Aggie, pudgy feet sticking
out straight, dimpled baby arms
locked open, bent slightly too
far back at the elbows, a two
foot high rear wearing the head
of a forty-year-old lady. The
audience quickly left, and I
walked up to Aggie, and asked
her, "Aggie, don't you ever feel
sorry for yourself?" She smiled
at me, as if amused, and re-
plied, "No indeed sir, whenever
I start to, I merely think of my
late mother's words. And she
said to me, 'Aggie, whenever
you feel sorry for yourself, just
think of the people less fortu-
nate than you are.' "

Not One Word Chariped

By DAVID LYNC H ^

Candy is the latest ol" soveral previously banned
books to be published by Lancer, the company which al-
ready brouKht us such works as The Perfumed (larden
and De Sade's Justine. In advertising Candy, Lancer has
made the most of its '"obscene" contents. In the blurbs on
the back cover it is described as "the most overwhelmingly
successful under - the - counter

book written in our genera-
tion," and Lancer seems deter-
mined to use this fact as a rea-
son for making it an over-the-
counter success as well. In a
sense, this is doing the book
complete justice. It was obvi-
ou.^ly written with the type of
reader in mind who would re-
spond to tin ag(^-old stimulus of

This is the original, uncut and
enexpurgated edition." There

written pwrnographic scene,

comes the means by which the
reader is implicated in each
scene; he is not merely an ob-
server but a participant in Can-
dy's defloration, Candy's rape,
Candy's flagellation, even
though he may believe that he
is "transcending the .senses"
at the moment he is most deep-
ly involved in them, as Candy

The Tables Turned

Candy was intended p'-imar-

ily as a satiric work, and is

based on the adventures of a

heroine whose personality is

construction of individual
scenes, the book as a whole
makes unsatisfying reading.
Perhaps this is due to the fact
that it is cast into the frame-
work of a pornographic story
without really being one, and is
thus merely a series of scenes:

imbursed for household expenses. All they seem
sure that we do not take too
many days off, and they say
they will count weekend trips
to Lome as vacation time. Im
too far from Lome to bother to
do such a thing for a weekend.
Teaching in a way is dis-
couraging because my kids are
not imbued with the Protestant
Ethic, and don't have this burn-
ing desire to achieve Success
that plagues Westerners. They
enjoy my classes, but they don't
spend a lot of time studying.
This is partly because they are
tired at day's end and have
very little light or room to
study in at night, and partly
because they don't feel like it.
But t*here are enough bright
ones to keep me happy. I think
if my classes were smaller 1
would have better luck. Part
of the problem also comes from
the fact that the French sys-
tems involves learning every-
thing by rote, which is not
learning at all. I don't teach
this way, and the kids are not
quite used to being asked to
think.

Not That Dark

The situation is far from
hopeless, however. Part of the
problem is that I am perhaps
a bit too demanding. But if my
standards were lower, and I
were less demanding, then my
kids would work even less. In
fact I don't want these people
to imitate the Westerners too
much. Unfortunately, many
people suffer from the mass in-
feriority complex which afflicts
so many Africans. We may
have technical superiority, but
I have never seen so many
happy, stable children in all
my life. And you will discover,
if you delve into African his-
tory, that many African cul-
tures had reached sophisticated
levels, politically, socially, and
even in some cases industrially
before contact with the West.

The Europeans were more
destructive than constructive,
uprooting and destroying the
stability of centuries-old tradi-
tions with swift blows. Now
the Protestants and the Catho-
lics compete all over the conti-
nent to spread their paternal
goodness which would be
much more valuable on their
own home soil.

The people here are amaz-
ingly pure, honest, friendly,
good-natured, industrious, aiid
relaxing. They enjoy their
lives, short though they may
be. Trying to teach them to at-
tain a state of grace (in which
I think they already live) will
only make neurotics out of
them. The little kids enjoy the
security of their mother's
bosom until the age of about
two. The older kids play Ireely
but perform their duties with-
out the slightest objections. In
fact. 1 am never permitted to
carry anything myself if there
are enough little hands to re-
lieve me of my bundles. I don't
think I am indulging in a fu-
tile gesture at all, for several
reasons.

Catalysts

Perhaps the learning
of English isn't so important;
most of the kids will never
have occasion to use it. It is
required as part of their cur-
riculum. I am acting (or rather
I should say Peace Corps peo-
ple in general act) as a .sort of
catalyst to get things done a
little and to provide encourage-
ment. I haven't had any time
to do any oi the outside things
1 have been planning such as
building a fireplace to burn
garbage in, but I have re-
fereed a few soccer matches on
Saturday afternoons (though I
only learned about the game
during the PC training pro-
gram) and have started a small
lending library, which I opened
this weekend, and which has
been just about exhausted. (I
will accept contributions of
kids' books, sciences, atlasscs,

But I provide some contact root vegetables like manioc

L'Express, le Monde, Hebdoma- the way) and ignam, rice, ban-

daire, and sporadically La Nou- anas, and oranges. They put

smoked fish and scraps of meat
in the sauces they prepare with
tomatoes and red pc^ppers and
onions, but that is about all
they eat most of the time. Over
t'he summer I hope to get a
chicken farm started, both for
the eggs and for the chickens,
on a large enough scale to make
the operation both profitable
(not for me, but for the person
who will be trained to take it
over) and cheap enough to get
a large number of people buy-
ing to have more variety in
their meals as well as more
nutritions.

The Maid

Paul Solman

Last Friday night, the BSP version of Jean Genet's
The Maids was put on at the Veteran's Hall in Concord.
It was directed by Daniel Greenblat and starred Judith
Sachs, Susan Abramowitz, and Margo Jefferson. The score
was composed by Dick Lerman.

The Play's the Thing —

The play is developed ^^^^^^^ ^^ maid to Solange as

their mistress. Claire has car-
ried through a plot to frame
the mistress's Jovct by forging
a series of letters. Solange has
tried to strangle the mistress
in her sleep, but she could not
muster up the courage to do
it. This is all brought out in a
dialogue between the two sis-
ters, a dialogue which begins
as a play
assuming

I felt that Miss Abramowitz, as

Claire, too much relied on her

movements, and maintained too

taut a pitch throughout. She

came across, however as a very

real character. Mis« Jefferson

she cleverly handled with

play, and enact ihe scene as it
should have taken place, Claire,
as the mistress, swallows the
blew she ha.s prepared as a
maid, and dies. Solange wails
at tlie toot of the bed. The
Maids ends.

Genet and Pinter

The play can be seen as
somewhat complementary to
Harold Pinter's The Servant. In
the latter, the servant destroys
his ma.ster. In The Maids, the
servants destroy themselves in
tiying to destroy their mistress.
The process in The Servant,
however, is an externaj switch
of dominant-submissive roles.
The maids, on the other hand,
go through no such decisive
and permanent tran.sformation.
They are forever intermingling
their characters. In fact, they
seem to represent the conflict-
ing aspects of a single charac-
ter. Genet has constructed a
dialectical, and hence a dra-
matically presentable, charac-
ter: the paradigmatic maid.
"She" embodies the frustra-
tion, the alienation, and the
panicky despair of all partially
aware underlings. One could
even extend the symbol to all
partially aware people in con-
temporary Western civilization,
but I thing such extension
might blur the sharp focus of
Genet's work. The double-
character of the maids is in-
cisively drawn with human
lines. The construct of the plot
leads to abstraction and extra-
polation,

left stage left and reentered
stage right, where the audience
was fearfully watching for a
surprise entrance by the mis-
tress.

Score Scores

Finally, there is the extra-
ordinary score ot Dick Lerman.
The play begins to the tune of
Mozart's G minor (40th) sym-
phony. But as it progresses,
the tonality begins to warp
and electronic music creeps in-
to the background. The rapport
Mister Lerman establishes be-
tween his music and tlie action
seemed to belie those argu-
ments which stress the totally
abstract, by extension, "anti-
humanistic" nature of electron-
ic music. The correspondences
between the score and the play
considerably heightened the
effect of the latter. This was
more obvious in regard to the
parallel between the gradual
distortion of music and charac-
ters, less obvious when, for
example, a croaking pulse pro-
vided the atmosphere for an
increasingly tense part of the
dialogue. Genet's general tone
and Mister Greenblat's direct
tion were well suited, I feel, to
the eerie nature of electronic
music. It will be extermely in-
teresting to watch how BSP
and Mr. Lerman develop the
possibilities of such music.

Lecture Report

Police in the Black Ghetto

by Rowena Robbins

There is a traditional longini? on the part of radicals— black and white — lor a

The question of **Sex, Destiny, and Identity" was
explored at the third and final Sex Kducation Lecture last day when the poor white will recognize that' his enemy L7n()t the Negro but rather
week. Principal speaker was Rev. Harvey Cox from the the white i^wer structure. The result could be anything from 'increased understamU

lamilicalions of their acts. De-
spite the low attendance, how-
ever, the lecture provided in-
sight and mature thinking on
Ihc topic of sex and identity.

]n his introductory remarks
to the audience in Schwartz
Auditorium, Dr. Cox empha-
sized that in discussing pre-
marital sex from the theolog-
ical and moral viewpoint, de-
scription and facts alone are in-
sufTicient. Disclaiming the role
of "parent-surrogate," the lec-
turer flatly stated that his re-
marks would be neither a '"yes"
or a "no" to the question of
prcniaritcl sex. He then

as a sacrificial altar." In this
context, Dr. Cox praised the
best-seller Candy as a valuable
critique, through scathing
satire, of the sacrifice theory of
sex.

Getting around to the vital
question of identity and sex, the
lecturer made it clear that "sex-
ual life lies very close to one's
sense of identity," emphasizing
the belief that mature sexual
union is an expression of one's
"deepest layer of self-under-
standing." Discussing the mag-
azine Playboy, he admitted that
it has played a large role in
freeing sexuality in America

too quick to dismiss the South-
ern poor white man as 'white
trash' and to direct his eflbrts
toward the blackman. McAdoo
puts down the efforts of these
missionaries to Mississippi as,
at best, misguided. If liberals
are concerned with ultimate
victory rather than immediate
personal satisfaction, tiiey m\ist
go where blackmen cannot go
and do the work that blackmen
cannot do — among the
white community. They must
teach non-violence to the white
man; they must initiate rent
strikes in white slums. Only

temporary sexual attitudes to
their present state:

Four Factors

1) The introduction of more
effective contraceptives ("pen-
icillin and prophylactic") have
revolutionized modern sexual
attitudes, with the excuse of
possible pregnancy fast disap-
pearing; decisions on premar-
ital sex relations have thus be-
come more a question of per-
sonal values than ever before.

2) The introduction of the
automobile, "the movable par-
lor," into the American scene,
has likewise acted to change
the environment of sexuality.
Its impact on our culture cer-
tainly cannot be dismissed.

3) The "selling" of the sexual
impulse in America, which Dr.
Cox referred to as "certainly
the most serious form of prosti-
tution," is due to the fusing

dope addicts and they roamed
the streets; practice ses.sions
for plans of action were carritMi
out in the view of the peo-
ple of Harlem. These actions
prompted the leaflet.

Part of the indication was
the 'fruitstand incident' of
April 17, 1964. Some school
children, aged 7-12, were play-
ing in the street and accident-
ally knocked ovt^r a fruit stand.
Like clockwork 6 police cars
drove up and beat the children
"imtil the ground was covered
witi) blood." Two Negro youths,
Wallace Baker (19) and Danny
Hamm (18) who were walking
past, went to tiie police and
asked why they were beating
the children. They were beaten
to the ground. Another by-
stander, Frank Stafford, lost an
eye from a blow. The fruit-
stand owner later testified that
these older Negroes had not
been in any way involved. They
had demonstrated a quality
that is hated by the police —
the willingness to stand up to
armed authority.

The main body of Mr. Mc
Adoo's talk was devoted to

It is the 'law* of Harlem
that kills one blackman each

tion or on the streets, and it is
the law that openly cooperates

It was into this world that

Kibbutz Life

Kibbutz life is an example of
this new type of experience. It
is easy to read many books
about this new "communal ex-
periment" with the idea of a
"religion of labor." But one
cannot really under.vtand it as
an observer. One must get up
at 5 a.m. to pick grapes, wovk
with his hands, stretch every
muscle, and join in with other
worl^ers. Only then can he
know the thrill of hard work
and its accomplishment, the
thrill of working together for
something instead of against

to understand the real
love which results from a sin-
cere and strong V)elief. 1 also
noticed the closed-mindt ciness
of a man who arrogantlv feels
he has found the "Truth." 1
could not accept most of what
this man believed, but 1 could
try to understand him, to peer
through his beard and wrinkU d
face to see what it was that
caused him to cut himself ofl
from the mainstream of life in
the world devote all his time to
religiou.*- study, make his wife
cut her hair and wear a wig,
and have his daughter wear
long stockings from the age of
three. The experience left me
somewhat angry, somewhat

when surroundings have
changed irrevocably due to the
passage ol time and the growth
of the traveler. It is up to the
individual to overcome both.

Just before 1 left Israel I re-
ceived a letter from a friend
who had studied in Geneva and
Paris for a year. In it she en-
closed this quote from James
Baldwins Notes of a Native
Son: "If the American found
in Europe only confusion, it
would obviously be infinitely
better for him to remain at
home. Hidden, however, in the
heart of the confusion he en-
counters here is that which he
is blindly seeking: the trrrn.s in
which he is related to his coun-
try, and to the world. .

The press al.so played its .sor-

porter "on the way up," Julius
Orjflin, working on the N.Y.

wliich JaiiK's Powell was shot
by a policeman in irunt oi ins
schoolmates on July 16. The
gub.^equent demonstrations and
intervention of the i>olice led
to three days of oix^-n terror in
Hjriem. in which people were
ghot down and beaten. Only
the H a r 1 e m Defense Council
and Progresciive Labor Move-
ment, claims McAdoo, went
out amonn the people in the
streets to project their demands
in writing. '1 oe police had cre-
ated chaos McAdoo maintains
that "black people have the
right to take organized meas-
ures of defon-ie. If Harlem must
become a Warsaw Ghelto, we
will light on the (irst day and
not on the last day when we
art' decimaUd." But he said
that it must be understood that
th" gun is not more important
than the m.an and his under-
standing. "I don't believe in
white sin and black virtue. This
o|ipressiuii is u clas.s oppres-
sioM "

After the physical terror of
the police came the reign of
legal terror. Bill Epton was in-
dicted by a Giand Jury on the
charge of criminal anarchy (on
the evidence of a tape in which
he allegedly said "We have to
kill cops and judges." The N.Y.
Times admitted that the tape
was inaudible.) Five people
from the Harlem Defense Coun-
cil were called to testify and
when they refused to recognize
the authority of the Grand
Jury were charged with crimi-
nal contempt. Mr. McAdoo
claims that the all-white Jury
(made up of capitalists, finan-
ciers, etc., with an average per
capita worth of $50,000), is
p;,it of the whole oppressive
apnaralus.

After Mr. McAdoo's talk the
mothers of two of the 'Harlem
Six' spoke. Mrs. Mildred Thom-
as spoke in a very restrained
manner of her son, Walter, and
the perilous life of Harlem,
which he and his friends had
tried to escape by raising pi-
geons on th<' roof of the apart-
ment. Chased by police, they
had stood up for their rights
and perhaps had established
reputations as cop-fighters. Mrs.
Mary Hamm, a strong, ener-
getic woman, speaking without
notes, told of the conditions of
prison and how the boys had
been kept ;;i solitary confine-
ment for extended periods. The
boys have been held in prison
for ten months without trial
and subjected to every punish-
ment, yet their spirit was not
broken. Neither woman at-
tempted to play on the emo-
tions of the audience; neither
woman liked what she had to
do. It was all part of the trials
of the last ten months. They
ncvd help — at this ix)int a
great deal of financial aid —
because they have refused the
Leg »l Aid lawyer appointed by
the court. Tliey want a lawyer
who will plead the innocence
of the boys. Several attorneys
have oflered their services, but
they invoked a 1902 ruling
which allows the judge the
prerogative of selecting coun-
sel for the accused in a murder
case if the defendant is in dire
financial straits.

The ofllce, an old two-
roomed wooden building served
as a library for Negro children
(Negroes are not allowed to
take books out of the public
library) and was the site of the
local Freedom School. Resi-
dents of Laurel's five Negro
areas often came to the center
for advice on the numerous
cases of day-to-day discrimina-
tion in employment and wel-
fare payments.

When COFO first moved in
they were greeted by the KC
Raiders, teen-age boys who
were ready to fight for freedom
with knives and who were sad-
ly disappointed by COFO's pol-
icy of non-violence. Gradually,
the group started to regularly
attend the Freedom School and
become involved in other activ-
itic^s. On December 18, five
workers and local boys tried to
integrate a public restaurant.
The KC Raiders had refused to
join the sit-in becau.se they felt
incapable of maintaining non-
violence if attacked. On Decem-

tempts to postpone this neces-
sity by concentrating upon the
Don Juan attitude towards sex
and playing down, even dis-
couraging, the mature relation-
ship. Citing the sales drop in
Playboy with men over 30,
Rev. Cox suggested that after
age 30 most men have recog-
nized the adolescent tone of
Playboy's "postponed identity"
and have entered into a mature
sexual relationship. One rami-
fication of the Don Juan imase
as an escape from mature sex-
uality and identity is its nat-
ural conclusion: promiscuity,
rather than being: a frantic
search for oneself, is often an
escape from self-revelation.

of the efTectiveness of non-
violent protest, the Raiders
(without their knives) unsuc-
cessfully attempted to integrate
the same restaurant.

Though greatly handicapped
by the loss of their office equip-
ment, COFO workers are now
holding weekly meetings in an
old church to discuss future ac-
tivities. In the last analysis it
seems the fire has only in-
creased the dedication of the
workers and Negro residents.

Rev. Cox concluded his lec-
ture with the following sugges-
tion to religious leaders: to
make their task not only a
moral one, but also it is one to
defend the true concept of sex
and sexuality against those
who would seek to commercial-
ize, idealize, or in some other
way corrupt it.

The lecturer was then joined
by the three Brandeis chaplains
— Dean Zion, Dr. Lee, and
Father Troy — for a discussion
and question-answer period on
the subject of the religious tra-
ditions and sexuality. Dean Zi-
on began with a short resume
of the Jewish view of sex
("never any feelings of guilt
towards thoughts of sex . . .
only what to do with these
thoughts"). Father Troy dis-
cussed the position of the
Church and admitted that it is
necessary for Church leaders
to reexamine their traditional
attitude on not only birth con-
trol, but on all phases of sex-
uality. Dr. Lee, speaking of the
Greek tradition ("the unortho-
dox Greek tradition"), cited the
Odyssey as exemplifying the
Greek ideal of mature sexual-
ity, where identity and sexual
union merge into a single goal:
the return to Penelope and to

self -understanding.^

The audience questions
which followed these brief re-
marks were basically related t©
concepts of desrtiny and iden-
tity, which Dr. Lee spoke of as
t>eing the fusion of maturity,
values, and symbols. All agreed
that symbols and values were
the ideal means of achieving a
sense of destiny and identity,
but that the task of deciding
upon the c4Mrre€t values and
symbols was enormously diffi-
cult.

Although at first the program
was exciting and informative,
the question-answer discussion
bogged down somewhat among
abstract concepts of destiny and
fate, which tended to be not
only unresolvable, but tedious
as well. In another context,
lengthy discussion on fate and
the revelation of God relating
to identity would have been in-
teresting and completely perti-
nent. As it was, they strayed
from the main i.ssue of sex and
identity, lessening the overall
effect of the program, although
in the main tlie lecture and dis-
cussion provided valuable in-
sight into the problem of mod-
ern sexuality and its distortion
into other than an intrinsic ex-
pression of self-understanding
and identity.

It's been written that "variety is the spioe of life.**
But at many companies it's difficult to obtain a
wide range of work experiences. A college gradu- '
ate can join a company, get locked into one tyi^e
of activity and stay there and stay there and stay
there. That's not the way we do it at Ford Motor
Company where our young men may work in
several areas to develop their full capabilities. We
believe that a thorough grounding in many phases
of our business is one of the best ways to cultivate
management talent. An example: Bob Andersoa,
of our finance staff.

Since Bob came to us in July, 1963, he's been
actively involved in five important areas of the Company. As a member
of our finance staff, he has reviewed budget and cost programs of a division
marketing cars, another manufacturing tractors and subsidiaries engaged
in automobile financing and insurance. In addition, Bob was selected to
assist in the 1964 national labor-management negotiations. His present
assignment is as a staff budget analyst for product engineering and styling.
Because of experiences like these. Bob will be able to channel liis career,
toward the activity that interests him most.

As a large automobile concern, Ford Motor Company needs people who
can handle a wide variety of assignments. Our college graduates come to
us with all types of educational backgrounds. And many of them move
into management positions unrelated to their degrees. If a fast-moving
career appeals to you, see our representative when he visits your campus,^
He may have the spice for your future.

Respectability?

When Mr. Olin took over as
athletic director two >ears ago,
he promised to restore the
sports program at Brandeis to
a level of respectability. The
fact that he has so far failed
testifies to the difficulty of the
task, not the insincerity of the
pledge. Mr. Olin's ideas are ba-
sically sound — he believes in a
strong intercollegiate athletic
program as m-uch as anyone.
Furthermore, he has already
introduced some worthwhile
measures, most notably the de-
cision to hire only full-time
coaches for his staff.

But Mr. Olin and his coach-
ing staff have yet to solve the
most frustrating problem: how
to restore the dignity and pride
of the individual athlete. Any

in that intangible force called
*'the winning spirit."

Few people stop to realize
the hardships a full-time ath-
lete at Brandeis must endure.
He must rigorously train his
body while keeping his mind
alert and capable of maintain-
ing high academic standards.
He must sacrifice many leisure
hours ("leisure" usually being
equated with study time) for
practice, travel, and the game
itself. For this, he receives no
academic considerations and no
financial assistance from the
school. In the face of these ob-
stacles, Mr. Olin and his coach-
es must somehow convince the
athlete that his participation
has some kind of real purpose.
It is a trying task.

A word of congratulations
and encouragement, then,
should be offered to the small
core of Brandeis athletes whose
self-sacrifice and dedication has
preserved a positive base on
which to build for the future.

said he had no doubt that stu-
dents would pay the fee. He
attributed any reluctance to
pay the fee to natural financial
conservatism of the students.
Dean Morrissey claims he knew
of no student dissatisfaction
with their collection of the fee.
He added, "Student appre-
hension is not based on real-
ity." The Committee voted to
let the Council collect the fee
because "the issue was raised
by students" and because they
wanted to "induce some ele-
ment of student responsibility."
Morrissey said that the ad-
ministration would help out
with any difficulties over col-
lection. It has already agreed
to pay the fees of those students
on large scholarships. He sug-
gested that Council use pledge
cards in the spring so that it
will know how much money to
expect when it makes out its
budget. He said he would be
"receptive" to discussing any
severe problems encountered
over collection. He claimed
that the administration could
bring pressure to bear on those
who do not pay, and it could
encourage freshmen to pay. He
further admitted the possibility
of the administration paying

The moving on, the continu-

attention here. We may well be
in the process of an important
change in the entire movement
— a change symbolized by the
current dissatisfaction with the
term "Civil Rights"; the move-
ment is learning that the Ne-
gro's problems go beyond dis-
crimination and the damages of
prejudice; they rest on social
and economic conditions that
ultimately require political an-
swers. The largely white, mid-
dle class, student portion of
the Civil Rights movement in
the North may face this change
in two ways. At best, they may
come to see clearly the politi-
cal and economic changes re-
quired in order to make the
black men equal, and to make
all white men more equal.
They may rtKlirect their ener-

new enthusiasm — if it is naively

will organize and educate on
a grass-roots level and make
demands that in tJiemselves

they are to be satisfied. The
ideology will perhaps be left to

At worst, this portion of the
Civil Rights movement may
take the command, "White man
go home!", all too seriously
and retire from the potentially
most hopeful political move-
ment of our generation. These
students may first be foolishly
surprised at the tremendous
stored up hatred of blacks for
whites and secondly, they jnay
be unable to face the hard
realities of exploitation and
degradation of white by wiiite
that must also be ended if the
Ne^gro is ever going to have
more than a poverty-stricken

It is our job to work against
the collapse of our portion of
the movement by realizing that
we are in a process of cJiange,
by expecting that many Ne-
groes will often have neither
the time nor the will to dis-
tinguish allies from enemies
among the whites, and by going

and discovering just what

ones are not. An awareness of

Cagers Face Amherst in Season Finale

Lose to Norwich, 83-72; UVM, 68-65

Braiidois has its last chance to aveii its first winless basketball season in his-
tory tomorrow ni^^ht against a scholarly Amherst (2-15) team in its sixth straiRlu
road y:ame. The final game of the frustrating year follows two more near misses on a
swing through upstate Vermont.

The Judges fell behind by 19 points early at Norwich last Friday afternoon.

But tlu'y scrambled back in the,j,

second lialf behind Richie

Hyniofl's 21 points and 16 more
by freshman Jack Rovner to
come within a basket (72-74)
Willi 90 seconds remaining be-
fore a final spurt by the burly
Cadets turned out to an 83-72
Gnal.

The Judi*es finally put to-
gether two solid halves the next
afternoon, but victory was de-
nied for the 2()lh time when the
University of Vermont capital-
ized on the one ingredient the
Judges have lacked all year —
size — in a frantic 68-65 duel.

UVM boasts only two full-
ride scholarship players, the
other 13 only get full tui-
tion ($ir>()0). but it was just
enough to thwart the (ired-up
Judges.

Neither 6-2 starting center
Santo Cimino. despite 14 of his
side's 55 rebounds, nor 6-5
Dave Jacob son or even 5-6
Steve Goldstein could handle
the driving layups of former
All-State Jerseys 6-5, 215-
pound Milt Goggans, who
scored 10 baskets over short,
outstretched arms.

The game was tied up six
times the first half and it looked
as if the Kake Walk Invaders
might spoil winter carnival
weekend when Cimino out-
jumped Goggans to open the
final 20 minutes of play.

Judges Challenge

The tap went to HymofT who
fed up to Rovner in the left
corner of sun-drenched Patrick
Gymnasium for a perfect one-
handed set. And when Cimino
hit from the other corner a mo-
ment later the Blue and White
were down by just a point,
34-35.

The lead began trading hands
the final eight minutes when
Dave Epstein made six of his
17 points, he also had 13 re-
bounds, and Barry Zimmerman
picked up eight of his usual
output of 20.

A couple of missed one and
one free throw opportunities by
Brandeis, a 2-3 zone and 2*/2-
minute freeze by UVM set up
a bizarre ending.

For the second time in the
final minute a half-court press
found Vermont unable to pass
out the ball after long pop shots
by Zim. There were five sec-
onds left when a HymofT pass
in to Cimino resulted in a ques-
tionable *'backing-in" ofl'ensive
foul and Vermont got the ball
back for keeps.

Epstein was especially bril-
liant with bullet-like passes
hooked out of his pivot post as
were Cimino and a strong two-
way performance by Zimmer-
man, one of New England's
outstanding sophomores. Hy-
mofT went all the way with the
above mentioned regulars.

One had the feeling that
Dave Epstein's bold fioor lead-
ership and hustle, had he been
available the entire season,
might have made a decided im-
provement in the Judges' play.

He contributed 45 points last
week including 17 plus 16 re-
lx)unds in the massacre at Trin-
ity. 98-73. The 6-2 senior had
a total of 39 rebounds.

The failure of backcourt
twins Hymofi" and Zimmerman
to coordinate their scoring tal-
ents hurt again.

Zimmy had 26 at Trinity, but
Richie was cool with 7 and
when the little co-captain
bounced back with 21 at Nor-
wich, his partner could only Athlete of the Week: Co-Capt.

shots. The pattern followed at stalwart last week v^ith 45

and Hymoff scoring just 10.

Brandeis Si! Yeshiva No!

Two Yoshiva University teams travelled up to Bran-
deis this weekend to face the Judges' wrestlers and
fencers. The IMue <& White made a proud showing: as both
teams triumphed in their sea-
son linales.

The Brandeis fencers scored
a 14-13 triumph in a closely
contested meet. The swordsmen
had dropped two-one-point de-
cisions last week to Trinity and
Brooklyn College. Coach Marty
Marlinian's ciiarges will now
prepare for tiie New England's
after a 5-6 record this winter.

The wrestlers won a come
from behind victory as Richie
Fertel pinned his Yeshiva op-
ponent to give Brandeis a 20-17
win. The grapplers had lost to
MIT earlier in the week and
wound up at 4-8. The matmen,
under the tutelage of Coach
Charlie Smith, are also pre-
paring for the New England
wrestling championships.

Next week there will be a
complete season summary and
prospects for next year on the
hoopsters, fencers and wres-
tlers.

Guest Editorial

Bucking the Trend

I. Lloyd Michaels

Two weeks ago in the Justice, this column pointed out
the appalling state of affairs of the Brandeis basketball
team, which has compiled the worst record in the history
of the school. I wish to add to these remarks my own
thoughts on the present statusti.^ —

and future of intercollegiate
sports in general at Brandeis.

The trend of the past five or
six years is unmistakably clear.
The basketball team, which
once enjoyed the distinction of
being tiie best small college
squad in the East, may not win
a single game this season. The
fencing and tennis teams, once
perennial powers, now seem
content with .500 records. The
football and track teams no
longer exist. The swimming
team never did exist. In the
face of such frustrating circum-
stances, is it possible to rebuild
athletics at Brandeis? And even
more important, is it worth the
ettort?

In both cases, I think the
answer is yes. There can be no
doubt that Brandeis has made
truly remarkable gains in the
academic world since its birth
less than two decades ago. But
I strongly believe that a really
great university must dedicate
itself to excellence in all fields
of endeavor. The University
has not truly fulfilled its poten-
tial until it is socially, spir-
itually, and athletically healthy,
as well as mentally strong.
It is now up to the administra-
tion (and by "administration,"
I am appealing directly to the
President of the University to
claim the initiative) to decide
whether Brandeis' participation
in intercollegiate athletics is,
indeed, a worthwhile endeavor.

If it is, then the question re-
mains as to what immediate
steps can be taken to improve
the present situation. The plan
for a new athletic center and
field house would be a great
help in this direction. Anyone
who has participated in var-
sity athletics at Brandeis can
testify that the current facil-
ities are grossly inadequate.
The gymnasium is often shared
by two, and even three, varsity
teams at the same time, making
practice virtually worthless.
Other varsity teams are forced
to practice in limited areas
without all the necessary equip-
ment. The addition of a swim-
ming pool would greatly en-
hance the recreational life of
the campus as well as pave the
way for the creation of a new
varsity sport. Even the present
athletic offices themselves are
painfully lacking in space and
privacy. Furthermore, a mod-
ern field house would be a po-
tent attraction to prospective
Brandeis athletes. This column
strongly urges that those with

the power exert themselves
toward making the "plans" for
a new athletic plant a positive
reality in the near future.

Recruiting?

A second step toward the im-
provement of athletics at Bran-
deis seems to lie in the delicate
matter of recruiting. Real gains
in this field can be achieved
quickly and simply through a
little extra effort and an elu-
sive ingredient called "class."
In the first place, it must be
realized that not every schol-
ar-athlete in the nation has
heard of this institution. The
athletic department must seek
out these high school graduates,
rather than waiting for them
to inquire about Brandeis. It
is not inconceivable that a 5c
stamp could lead to the accept-
ance of a 6-8 center who dunks
with either hand and who
might otherwise never have
heard of Brandeis. The students
themselves can help by encour-
aging qualified athletes they
may know to consider a Bran-
deis education. As to the ele-
ment of "class" in recruiting,
this involves a bit more organ-
ization than is currently evi-
dent and a new emphasis on
professional, ethical salesman-
ship. And it does not mean low-
ering entrance requirements to
any great degree. I am certain
that there are enough scholar
athletes available for Brandeis
to remain selective in its ad-
missions policy,

SCLC Voter Project
Asks Campus Aid

The Southern Christian Leadership Conference,
headed by Martin Luther King, has developed plans for a
summer project (Summer Community Organization and
Political Education, or SCOPE) somewhat similar to the
SNCC program of 1964 in Mississippi. Participants in the
project are to be selected from American colleges and
universities. Work will be done**

in more than eighty blackbelt
counties in such states as Flor-
ida, Alabama, Georgia, South
Carolina, and Virginia. Origi-
nal plans called for 500 persons,
undergraduates, or professors,
to work in the ten week proj-
ect, yet initial response seems
to involve numbers in the thou-
sands. The work to be done is
in voter registration and politi-
cal education, including efforts
to increase literacy.

Each college or university in-
terested in this project is en-
couraged to form a SCOPE
branch on campus which main-
tains close contact with SCLC
offices in Atlanta. The ideal
plan is for each school to spon-
sor one county. This entails sev-
eral things: people working in
the two areas listed above, pro-
vision for such materials as
books and mimeograph ma-
chines, and collection of money.
Most of the financial support
for the program must come

Henry Aiken
Joins Faculty
Next Semester

Dr. Henry David Aiken of
the Department of Philosophy
at Harvard University, will join
the Brandeis faculty in Septem-
ber as Professor of Philosophy
and History of Ideas. He will
assume the chair now held by
Dr. Herbert Marcuse, who will
join the faculty of the Univer-
sity of California at LaJoUa
next year.

Dr. Aiken, who specializes in
the field of American Pragmat-
ism, received his A.B. at Reed
College and his MA. at Stan-
ford. He did further graduate
work at Harvard, receiving an
MA. and Ph.D. there.

The new professor was for-
merly associated with Colum-
bia University. He has been an
Assistant Professor at the Uni-
versity of Washington, and As-
sociate Professor at Harvard,
and a Visiting Professor at the
University of Michigan. Dr.
Aiken is the author of three
books: Age of Ideology, VaUie:
A Cooperative Inquiry, and
Reason and Conduct.

Brandeis is one of the aca-
demic communities chosen by
the SCLC leadership. Our ad-
ministration, as represented by
Dean Zion, has shown great in-
terest in sponsoring this move-
ment, even including financial
aid at least to those for whom
it is a necessity. However, sup-
port from students and faculty
is needed for success. There
have so far been two little-pub-
licized meetings of this group.
A third will be held Thursday
evening, March 16 at 5:30 in
Kutz dining hall for all those
interested. This meeting is not
only for those wishing to go
South this summer, but also for
those interested in publicizing, i
raising funds, or in other ways
helping work with the SCOPE
project.

Council Adopts
Housing Plan,
Steps Down

The outgoing Student Coun-
cil held its final meeting on
Wednesday, March 3, at 10 p.m.
The meeting's main order of
business was the presentation
and adoption of a new housing
program, but a few prelim-
inaries had to be dealt with
first.

Council Secretary Vicki
Hammer, taking over for Pres-
ident Steve Mora, who was de-
layed at a seminar, began by
reading a letter from Mora to
President Sachar and Deans
Morrissey and Zion, thanking
them for their cooperation dur-
ing the past year. The year's
experience. Mora said, demon-
strates that cooperation can
work and that students do have
constructive suggestions to of-
fer (for example the housing
program). There are many
areas where the student body
and the administration have
similar aims, and the coopera-
tion of both parties is essential
for the achievement of these
goals. The best way of
strengthening this cooperation.
Mora concluded, is through a
tripartite government at Bran-
deis.

Allen Zerkin then read the
Housing Committee's pro-
posal for next year, and
asked for its adoption. The new
plan contains certain important
differences from last year's
housing plan. Last year Coun-
cil's aim was to firmly estab-
lish group living at Brandeis.
Size of groups was therefore
emphasized over seniority.
This was done through the point
system whereby a freshman

New Campus
Political Group
Holds Meeting

"The Judge's Advocates," a
politically conservative student
group, will hold a public or-
ganizational meeting in Sher-
man game room tomorrow at
8:00 p.m. The purpose of the
society (whose name honors
Daniel Webster, a frequent sup-
porter of unpopular causes) is
to bring to campus the conser-
vative point of view, as well as
a "free and open discussion of
issues," according to spokesman
Lawrence W. Bates, Jr. '68.

In a letter to The Ju.stice an-
nouncing the formation of the
group. Bates suggested that
Brandeis political discussion is
lacking in vigor, and that this
was particularly apparent dur-
ing last fall's Presidential elec-
tion: "A freer discussion might
have poked a hole or two into
the gas balloon more popularly
known as the "Great Society."

Bates also expressed some
pessimism about the future of
the club, but at the same time
suggested that there are a few
members of the Brandeis com-
munity who would "consent to
an occasional open forum and
might even po.se a challenging
question or two."

CIC Leaders
To Consider
'Direct Action'

Direct action for educational
reform is seriously being con-
sidered for the near future, ac-
cording to spokesmen for the
Committee For An Ideal Cam-
pus. Buoyed by a pep-talk
from Dr. John Vickers last
Tuesday and the "favorable
student council election re-
sults," CIC members are ready
to initiate a campaign against
"disturbing trends in Brandeis
educational policy."

Up until now, the Committee
had limited its agitation for the
"ideal campus" to four public
programs. After Dr. Vickers'
address, however, the CIC was
able to organize a nucleus of
students willing to commit
themselves to a program of
direct action.

The gathering chose a Steering
Committee which favored a
militant approach to education-
al reform in the coming weeks.
The issues of social self-gov-
ernment and tripartite govern-
ment, however, which have
always been main concerns of
the CIC were rejected as "areas
of protest." The general senti-
ment was that protest in these
areas would be premature and
unlikely to succeed at this
point. "Resistance to disturbing
trends in undergraduate edu-
cation would, on the other
hand, be appropriate," e x-
plaincd a CIC spokesman.
"Educational depersonaliza-
tion is a current national con-
cern and an active grievance
here at Brandeis. Various de-
partments, under pressure from
prestige - minded administra-
tors, arc shifting their empha-
sis from undergraduate to
graduate education." The Jus-
tice learned that the CIC was
planning to pressure these de-
partments to reverse their pol-
icy or face an undergraduate
I boycott.

I* Lerman, an economics ma-
jor, is a member of Phi Beta
Kappa and the Economics Hon-
or Society He is also a Louis
Brandeis Honorary Scholar, a
recipient of the Harry Stein
Scholar-Athlete Award, and
the captain of the Brandeis
wrestling team. He plans to
continue his work in economics
at either Harvard or MIT, and
then to teach.

The Woodrow WiLson Fel-
lowships, awarded annually,
cover tuition and fees for the
first year of post-graduate study
at any accredited university.
In addition, the grant includes
a living allowance of $1800.
The recipients are selected
from a list of students recom-
mended to the Woodrow Wil-
.son Fellowship Committee of
the Ford Foundation by pro-
fessors from colleges and uni-
versities around the country
Approximately 11.000 of the
students who receive recom-
mendations from their profes-
sors are invited to apply. Of
these, the committee selects
only 2,500 to be interviewed.
About 1,500 applicants are cho-
sen to receive the awards. In
addition, the committee names
a number of students for hon-
orary mention.

The New England region
usually receives about 175 fel-
lowships annually. Last year,
eight Brandeis students were
awarded fellowships and seven
were granted honorary men-
tion.

Mid-Semester
Grade Option

Now in Use

Changes in the midterm
grading system are going into
effect this term, in.s-tead of next
fall, as was originally reported
(Justice, March 2).

In all fall-term courses, and
in all spring-term courses ex-
cept full-year courses, profes-
sors will have the option of re-
porting S ( for satisfactory) or U
(for unsatisfactory) grades in
place of the letter-grade sys-
tem. Full-year courses will re-
tain mid-term grading for the
spring term.

In commenting on the
changes, As.sociate Dean of Fac-
ulty Eugene Black noted that
in many courses, especially
those of the 90 level, there is
often no possibility of clo.sely
grading student work at mid-
semester. "We know that such
(mid-semester) grades are
sometimes a fiction," ho said.
The new system will avoid this
groundless grading.

Furthermore, mid-term ex-
aminations will, under the new
system, admit of more "flexi-
bility." Professors may opt not
to use them, or to schedule
them in relation, not to a "mid-
term week," but instead to "the
cour.se-material itself."

These changes were* rlcrided
upon by a vote of the iaculty
in January.

A Question of Returns?

The tense relationship between Brandeis and the local com-
munity, and the related problem of protection of University
personnel and students, has been brought to the fore by the
recent beating of a Brandeis student on campus.

In a statement last week, Mr. Larry Kane, special assistant
to President Sachar in charge of town-gown relations, cited the
national increase in juvenile delinquency as the "reason" for
this attack. Therefore, he said, there is no reason to suppose a
marked change in Brandeis-Waltham relations — this beating
was simply a matter of statistics. Such reasoning would also
seem to indicate that it is only due to sheer good fortune that
the statistics haven't shown themselves before and in greater
number.

But Mr. Kane's statement serves to emphasize the central
issue here — the grossly inadequate security measures taken for
the protection of Brandeis students. Over the last ten years, the
Brandeis campus, its population, and Mr. Kane's statistics have
expanded remarkably. Yet, the Security force has remained at
its present strength of live men, operating one radio-equipped
cruiser.

Although the force has not expanded, the scope and number
of its problems have. Security's prime function is not, contrary
to popular belief, that of a police officer, but rather that of a
watchman. The Security oflicer spends much of his time check-
ing each building on campus for prowlers and/or damage. Most
of his time is spent each night in punching time clocks.

Security is also responsible for the safety of all personnel.
The Brandeis cjmipus covers approximately 100 acres, but one
man in one car (aided by a special policeman at the main
entrance) is expected not only to discover and assist any Bran-
deis resident who might be in trouble, but also to prevent, by
his mere presence, any trouble from occurring.

It has become obvious that one man is simply not adequate
to cope with these problems. In response to the recent beating,
two foot patrolmen have been added to the force. However, only
one man is on duty at any one time, so there has been an efTec-
live addition of only one man to the Security force.

In addition. Dean Morrissey has announced plans to equip
a second car with a radio. This station wagon, originally ob-
tained as a courtesy car for visiting dignitaries, would then be
used at night to supplement the present cruiser.

This, however, is not enough. What is needed is not only
more policemen and another car, but also a reduction of Se-
curity's present responsibilities. That is, additional patrolmen
should be hired to police the areas behind North and East Quad-
rangles, where breaks in the fence readily admit trespassers.
These men, coupled with the existing patrolman in Hamilton,
could effectively police the most heavily frequented areas on
campus.

Also, with the addition of a second cruiser," one mobile unit
can and should be used solely for security protection. The other
policeman and car could be used to check buildings, with the
option that, should any trouble occur, the second car be used
to back up, or assist, the first.

The primary objection to these suggestions is their ex-
pensed—as Dean Morrissey said, "We drop an awful lot of money
into (Se^curity), and get very little real return." He went on
to say that no one wants to donate money for the maintenance
of a Security force, and thus the University has to pay
out of its corporate pocket. Unfortunately, "return" here can
only be calculated in terms of an intangible "peace of mind"
■which does not show up on an adding machine. Nonetheless, a
University which is willing to spare no expense to give its
students the best possible education (defined as professors who
publish the most possible books), and the best possible "parietal"
care (defined as an "Open Door" policy), should at least be will-
ing to provide for a minimal standard of public safety.

Dear Student Body of Brandeis,

The Laurel Project thanks
you for your immediate re-
sponse to our needs. Most of
you knjw of our present prob-
lem arising from the burning
of our center. Your assistance
was happily received. The most
damage was done to the li-
brary which suffered total de-
struction. All of the office
equipment was stolen and
everything else was burned or
at least very wet. Thanks to
people such as yourselves, we
have been able to quickly pull
the pieces together and move.

There is another immediate
problem and that is the prod-
ding of our representatives
across the Nation into voting to
unseat the Representatives from
Mississippi. A rash of letters
must be written to our Repre-
sentatives reminding them of
Rep. Roosevelt's words on the
opening day of Congress, "They
cannot win 'Elections' from a
System based on Murder". We
should congratulate those 140
Representatives who voted
against the seating of the five
Mississippians. We should also
question those avowed cham-
pions of civil rights like Manny
Cellar, author of the Civil
Rights Bill, Abe Multer, Edna
Kelley, John Rooney, Hugh
Curey, and John M. Murphy,
all of Brooklyn, why they
voted to seat the five Mississip-
pians. We must let them know
that the voting rights of the
Negro people in Mississippi are
not to be exchanged for an al-
liance between big city ma-
chines and the conservative
South.

For a list of Representatives
who voted to unseat the Missis-
sippi Representatives write:
MFDP

1353 U Street N. W.
Wash. D.C. 20009

Thank you again; we hope
that your interest and support
will continue.

Yours in the struggle,
Gwen Robinson
Project Director

To the Editor of the Justice:

As alumni we congratulate
the University upon its receipt
of a second Ford Foundation
Challenge grant. To help raise
the necessary funds we have a
plan which might evoke sub-
stantial support and enthusi-
asm.

All friends of the University
will recognize that the Ford
grant is the crowning achieve-
ment of President A.L. Sachar's
years of unselfish pursuit of
financial security for Brandeis.
What better tribute could we
pay than the establishment of
a memorial to President Sachar
on the occasion of his long
overdue retirement? One pos-
sible form which an appropri-
ate memorial might take is the
establishment of an Abram
Leon Sachar chair in the His-
tory of Academic Freedom We
can think of few alumni indeed
who would not gladly contri-
bute to President Sachar's re-
tirement.

Headline in New York Times,

March 1st, 1965: "U.S. said to
plan limited air war as lever on
Hanoi." Text under picture of
President Lyndon B. "Gold-
water" on the same front page:
"Enjoying the weather." It's
fine for the President of the
greatest "democracy" in the
world to be strolling along on
his front lawn in nice spring
weather. He is not the one who
is dying in South Viet Nam; he
does not have to do the dirty
work of forcing women and
children into "Strategic Ham-
lets." Twenty years ago men
who did work like that were
called "S.S. — soldaten"; today
they are called "special forces"
or "military advisors." "He
(President Johnson) said that
he would like to see them
(American students) develop
as much fanaticism about the
United States political system
as young Nazis did about their
system during the war." (N. Y
Times, Sat., Feb. 6) February
7th the first "retaliatory" at-
tacks took place in North 'Viet
Nam. In 1937 Hitler bombed
Guernica. In 1956 Russian
tanks destroyed the hopes of
Hungarian freedom fighters
But of course, now it is differ-
ent, the U. S. is fighting to de-
fend "freedom" and "democ-
racy."

They can smile, in Washing-
ton, until their teeth rot; they
won the election, didn't they?
They aren't going to crawl in
the mud to kill or be killed in
case of war. But, you, my dear
Brandeis student are going to
be drafted. You will have to
fight together with other ordi-
nary men and boys from this
huge, rich, and wonderful coun-
try. You will have to burn
women and children with your
bazooka. You will be killed by
a silent dagger in the back; you
will rot in wet, damp jungles.
And you know that in spite of
whatever they try to tell you,
you are fighting and killing
peasants, whose only want in
life is to be left alone, to take
care of their families and to
harvest their crops.

Defense Secretary McNamara
can try to explain to the world
until he is blue in the face that
the war in South East Asia is
provoked by Chinese Commu-
nists. Neither the world nor
his own countrymen believes
him. But it is the common peo-
ple all over the world who are
going to .suffer in case of a ma-
jor conflict. It is on our cities
that the bombs will fall. We
are going to be killed. It is less
than twenty years since the
world bled last; strangely
enough it survived, but are we
going to be so lucky once more?

The American press writes
about Americans getting killed
in wars in Viet Nam and the
Congo, but there is never a sin-
gle word about the thousands
of Vietnamese or Congolese
who are killed every day. Are
only white lives valuable?

I do not think anyone wants
a war, but I know it !.»> danger-
ous to play with fire; when you
play with nuclear fire you are
not only liable to burn your-
self: the whole world may burn
together with Johnson, Humph-
rey and McNamara for democ-
racy.

It is time to do something on
a personal level about the situ-
ation. Brandeis students are
good liberals; they go to rallies
to hear speeches, they send let-
ters and telegrams to "their"
president; some of them even
go to demonstrations in Boston
and Washington, but it does not
seem to help very much. You
have still got one more thing to
do: send in your draft card, ap-
ply CO. status and refuse to
fight in an unnecessary and un-
fair war. Remember you arc
the one who is going to die;
Johnson will continue to stroll
on the lawns of the White
House.

The Fornication Explosion: **

I was in the bookstore look-
ing for some bathroom litera-
ture, and wandered over to the
revolving bookstands from the
Psychology Dept. Section (Al-
dous Huxley gives me consti-
pation). Sure enough, there
were three or four girls I knew
by sight, buying Simone de
Beauvoir's The Second Sex,
Erich Fromm's The Art of
Loving, Dr. Brown's Sex and
the Single Girl, and Dr. Quack-
brain's Fifty Ways to Lose
Weight While Eating Like a
Horse.

Two things that don't mix, it
has ever seemed to me, are
earnestness and heterosexual-
ity, so I turned down such nose-
to-the-grinder stuff and looked
lor something lighter. On the
back of a splashy-looking book
I found a common come-on,
"SWIFT AND CASUAL
SEX!!!". I opened it at random
and found this dialogue:

She: Goddammit, did it have
to be so fast?

He: Ah, what's the differ-
ence?

It strikes me now that that
guy had his finger on more
than somebody's navel, and
certainly on more than those
people do who are always beat-
ing their big bass drum. Sex is
a nice deal, all right, but it isn't
a big deal.

The main trouble with revo-
lutions is that they aren't con-
tent simply to negate. The fall
of the old order brings, not re-
laxation, but instead a perma-
nent revolution, making believe
that its particular axe is the
Kingdom of God. The sex rev-
olution is no exception. Now

must needs have Norman Mail-
er tell us that a good orgasm is
the source of all goodness.

I suggest that everybody
take it easy. The battle's over;
nobody need go horny. On the
other hand, at least as far as 1
can see, people who take Mail-
er seriously and try to find sal-
vation in their sheets get in-
irtead, uptight muscles, bad
nerves, and disappointment. As
I said, bed is no place for one's
axes, projects, and earnest en-
deavors.

In short, "all you tigers out
there (oh, you know who you
are)," cool it.

Strangelove Revisited:

People have been howling
since the early fifties about how
terrible it is to be brought up
in a world constantly on the
brink of imminent extinction.
Really, friends, it isn't as bad
as all that. , ^^ ^

It isn't that I deny that we
are on the point of extinction,
or that the laws of probability
give odds-on disaster by 1975
(according to some committee
of scientists or other). It's just
that this state of affairs jsn t a
complete waste.

First of all, there's always a
big bash alter each of the big
scares, which is all to the good.
During the Cuba scare of Octo-
ber '62, for example, one of
the sociology classes circulated
a survey on student reactions.
Among other things, work
dropped off 687c, and 87c drank
more mead.

Second, it seems to me that
a good many people spend a
good part of the present trying
to secure the future. "I'm in
college to get a good job," and
all that. Now, doing things one
doesn't like for themselves, but
only for the sake of something

else and in the far future at

that is no way to be tou-

jours gai, as Mehitabel said.
But, if instead of worrying
about the next 40 or 50 years,
people just worry about the
next ten or so, then far less life
is lived on such a two-faced
isasis. And, if we survive the
'seventies, it'll all seem to be
free time, and that much less
worrying will have taken place.

Third, it thickens the plot.

Living in an age of extremes
may be bad for the digestion,
but, at least, it keeps your head
moving. So, if you're one of the
many people who resent being
blown up for no reason, move
over to macrobiotics and relax.

a major role in the accomplish-
ment.

Tripartite

This type of thinking was re-
■ponsible for the much misun-
derstood tripartite government
plan. This plan was designed to
accomplish one thing; to make
tripartite government an issue
on the Brandeis campus. It was
presented in ideal fashion, not
because we expected immediate
approval, but because we felt
that we should not start with
less than the ideal. The Ad Com-
mittee response to our proposal
was not totally discouraging,
nor was it met with dismay.
We have continued negotiation.
The recent diplomacy which for
the first time has included fac-
ulty, appears to be making
progress, and hope for a rea-
sonable tripartite system is
brighter than at any time in
Brandeis history. If any kind of
meaningful tripartite govern-
ment does ensue out of the
present negotiations, the Coun-
cil would be wise to accept it.
The reason for this is that once
estabhshed, the government it-
self will become a campus is-
sue, and discussion about its
improvement will continue. At
that point the road to true
tripartite government will have
shortened considerably.

This type of vision it seems
to me must be extended to all
areas of Council responsibility;
issues must not be dealt witii
in segments The past Council
had several goals when it took
office last March. We wished to
improve relations with the ad-
ministration. We wished to im-
prove relations with the alumni.
We wished to experiment with
the housing and social struc-
ture at Brandeis in order to
work out a comprehensive,
connected plan in both these
areas which would provide stu-
dents with improving living
conditions. I believe we suc-
ceeded in all three goals.

And Achievement

First, almost every Council
program of tlie past year has
been accomplished in coopera-
tion with the administration.
The most prominent of these
has been housing, and the din-
ing hall program. In addition,
the liberalization of the parietal
hours rule is the result of
Council administration coopera-
tion. There is now a feeling of
cooperation and responsiveness
by both parties which has been
absent during my period of
experience. The recent agree-
ment on administration pay-
ment of the activities fee for
scholarship students, as well as
the probability of adnunist.a-
tion sponsored financial aid to
the student .social program, ex-
presses this cooperation ex-
cellently.

Second, the publication of the
Student Council Bulletin, as
well as the hard work of Alum-
ni President Alan Greenwald,
have tremendously improved
student-alumni relations.

Third, the dorm money pro-
gram, combined with the group
living system, has proved to be
a big success. At no time in re-
cent Brandeis history has there
been so much social activity in
the dormitories. In addition, we
will have proven by the end of
the year that without tamper-
ing with the activities fee, and
it must not be tampered with,
and with minimal assistance
from the Service Bureau, we
can provide first rate entertain-

ment for the campus. Bjr June
the campus will have seen
Peter, Paul and Mary, a big
name Rock 'n' Roll Concert,
and an outstanding Folk Festi-
val (in May), all brought by
Council, as well as Thelonious
Monk brought by the Service
Bureau. A slight increase in the
funds provided for the Friday
night movie-record hop pro-
gram should provide more
frequent all campus evenis
necessary to augment the dorm
program and the big name en-
tertainment series.

Thus, the recent Council has
paid attention to ideology and
to more mundane questions.
The incoming Council can do
much in both areas. A large
challenge awaits in educational
policies and in internal Coun-
cil organization as well as in
improved campus communica-
tions. It must continue and im-
prove the programs of the out-
going Council, the most active
and experimental in Brandeis
history. Foremost in its pro-
grams, however must be work-
ing toward a fuller role for
students in university decision
making, probably by following
recent Council policy. Finally,
the Council must not forget the
historical purpose of student
government as an institution
on the American college
campus.

(Continued from Front Page)
while seniority was a factor in
determining order of selection,
the size of the group was more
important. For example, a
group of six freshmen (six
points) would choose rooms be-
for all groups of two sopho-
mores, divided into individual
groups of two. In this way,
groups were emphasized over
individuals, an emphasis neces-
sary to give the group-living
plan a solid foundation.

This year, the individual can
be given more emphasis. This
can be accomplished by select-
ing rooms on the basis of aver-
age, not total points. Under this
plan, a group of two sopho-
mores, having a two-point aver-
age, would choose before a
group of six freshmen, having a
one-point average.

Group living, however, will
by no means be eliminated.
Groups will sign up for six
and ten man suites in East first,
and drawing for these suites
will take place before the
drawing for rooms in other
quadrangles. Groups not get-
ting suites in East will then en-
ter the drawing for rooms else-
where. Ten man groups in this
situation can either try for a
ten-man set of rooms in Hamil-
ton or can break up into two
groups of six and four, and try
to get space in North.

No groups larger than six
will be allowed in North next
year. It is hoped that this plan
will allow for more efficient
freshman integration. The
second floor of all dorms
in North will be reserved for
groups. In North A and B, the
short end of the second floor
will house one six-man group,
with the rest of the floor being
divided up among other groups
of four and six. The first and
third floors of all North dorms
will have a few rooms set aside
for upperclassmen, with the
rest of the floor going to fresh-
men.

Freshmen not living in North
next year will be housed in in-
tegrated dorms in Hamilton.

Aside from froup living in
East, North, and Hamilton, up-
per classmen will have their
choice of individual rooms in
certain areas of North and
Hamilton, four dorms in Ridge*
wood, and the Castle.

Alan Zerkin claimed that it
was more important to give
juniors and seniors their
choice, since those sophomores
living in Hamilton next year
will have two more years to
live elsewhere. It was an-
nounced that the administra-
tion had agreed to build sec-
ond floor lounges in Hamilton.

Before it finally takes effect,
the proposal requires the ap-
proval of the new Student
Council.

Critical importance and vigor are fused into this
one meaningful word, vitality. What does this
mean to you? — a graduate about to make the
major decision of career selection. By selecting a
company with vitality, you'll find more challeng-
ing and rewarding work. Ford Motor Company is
such a firm.

At our Company, you'll have the advantages and
resources of a large corporation, along with the
high degree of personal responsibility you'd expect
in a small one. For our Company is composed of
many small management teams, each with respon-
sibility for a specific activity. Activities so vital,
they can affect hundreds of jobs and involve millions of dollars. You play in
the big leagues— early — at Ford Motor Company. An example: Bob Bowen'a
experiences in marketing.

Early in Bob's career, he helped prepare comprehensive reviews of our
current and planned marketing activities. He also studied special problems
in market representation. Later, he was assigned to one of our Product
Planning Offices. Here, future vehicle concepts are explored with accom«
panying financial, marketing and production factors. Market research is
conducted to determine trends in customer preferences. Critical data like this
led to the design and development of the highly successful Mustang.
Maybe vitality is what you've been seeking in a position— and in an
employer, too. We also offer the opiwrtunity for early responsibility and
the pay that goes with it. See our representative for the complete story

Brandeis degree "on the line."
This — a committed student

to obtaining our objectives.

of the three interest groups.

needs money, since it costs to
run a big business like Bran-

forced to administer in a vacu-
um. The Administration can
stand up to the outside world
only if it can point to a unified
faculty or student body and de-
clare, "Look at them — they're
forcing me." The Administra-
tion at Brandeis, having to ad-
minister some very ambiguous
ends, is caught in a suspension
between the students and the
Board and as a consequence is
in the immoral situation of
having promulgated an unwise
rule which it has no intention
of enforcing.

The Faculty, essentially, has
no problems. Its members ex-
ploit the university to their
own benefit, then move on. The
average faculty member doesn't
want to get involved.

The problems of the students
are linked to the professional-
educative split. He must over-
come his mania for the degree
if he is to succeed in his de-
mands vis a vis the Adminis-
tration. A "radical student rev-
olution" is not necessary, Dr.
Vickers counsels with an al-
most Goldwatery conservatism,
becau.se students can accom-
plish all of their ends within
the present structure, perhaps
more efficiently than in any
other framework. All that is
needed is unity and a willing-
ness to sacrifice the Brandeis
degree if necessary.

Dr. Vicker's analyses of the
Faculty and the Students are,
I think, valid; but he delineates
Administration too theoretical-
ly. An Administration is not
simply a caretaker, and it does
not function like a jellyfish,
gaining shape strictly from the
pressures exerted upon it. The
duties placed upon it by the
"external sF>onsor" are so vague
that the Administration, which

own policies, but has vested in-
terests and becomes a power in
its own right.

The situation at Brandeis is,
perhaps, special. We don't really
have an "external sponsor."
Our sponsor, in fact if not theo-
ry, is our President, the head
of our Administration. Thus
our Administration does not
merely administer the broadly-
phrased outlines of the Univer-
sity's charter. It effectually
creates the charter as it goes
along. In other words, we have
an "internal sponsor," and this
modifies the degree to which
unified pressure can be effec-
tive.

A y e a r ago we challenged
the Administration and were
beaten. Dr. Vickers has pointed
up some of our faults: we
moved the rebellion too fast
and pushed the Administration
into inescapable corners; we
unnecessarily brought about an
open confrontation of powers,
and after causing the confron-
tation, we backed down.

Ideally, he is right. But we
had to back down. I don't know
whether student unity alone
(without outside support) is
enough to defeat the Adminis-
tration. But the point is, unless
we have some outside support
we are not capable of achiev-
ing either the unity or the com-
mitment necessary to win. We
are simply too middle class, too
Jewish, and too career-oriented.
Psychologically, we need sup-
port. N o w if the faculty had
told us last year, "If you get
expelled, the very least we will
do is see that you get into an-
other good school," then 1 think
we would have fought the type
of battle Dr. Vickers would ap-
preciate. But we had no sup-
port from any quarter, and
lacked the courage to go it
alone.

Amherst Dumps Brandeisy 81-68^

«

For Judges^ 21st Straight Loss

The Brandeis cagers dropped their 21st straight basketball game, 81-68, at
Amherst last Wednesday to end the first winless season in the history of the school.

The game was the epitome of a season of futility and frustration as the Judges
dissipated an eight-point halftime lead against the weak (4-15) Lord Jeffs.

Amherst came into the game*-
without two of its starters —

6-6 Ken Howard (16 pts. per
game) and 6-5 Bob Krause (13
pts. per game) ruled out for
disciplinary reasons.

The Judges looked hungry
as the first half opened. Fresh-
man Jack Rovner, hit seven of
our first eight point.s and the
Blue & White pulled up to a
10-10 tie after six minutes of
play to match an early spurt
by the Lord Jeffs.

Brandeis moved out to a
seven-point lead (25-18) when
Senior Co-Caotains Dave Ep-
stein and Richie Hymoff com-
bined for key baskets. Hymoff
picked up three quick fouls on
questionable offensive calls
and Coach Irv Olin sent in
soph Richie Epstein to bring
the ball up.

As the first half closed,
Brandeis pulled out to a 38-30
lead with Barry Zimmerman
innking a layup at the buzzer.
Although the Lord Jeffs out-
rebounded the Judgfvs by ton in
the half, the Brandeis cagers
made the most of its one-and-
ones and looked on the way to
number one.

Lord Jeffs Run

Amherst literally ran the
Judges off the court as the sec-
ond half opened. Jack Keebler
(17 points) an<; Clarke Sum-
mers (13) brought the Lord
Jeffs within one point, 39-40,
in three minutes.

But Dave Jacobson made his
presence felt as he tapped in
three straight hoops to make
the margin 49-43. Amherst
streaked for five straight be-
fore the Judges returned with
two jumpers by Zimmerman.

Sophomore J. Lehrman's lay-
up sent Amherst into the lead,
58-57, with 7:40 left. Steve
Goldstein converted two free
throws for Brandeis to give us
a one-point margin, 59-58.

iels — with four personal fouls
apiece — spearheaded the Lord
Jeff drive. In two minutes
Brandeis fell to a 71-59 disad-
vantage as Amherst scored 13

numerous rebounds.

It was all anticlimactic after
this.

Judges Impotency

Brandeis went for seven

throws while Amherst scored
19 points. The Judges were out-

Cohen won 9 and lost only
1 in his winning effort. He de-
feated two fencers each from
MIT, Harvard, Holy Cross, and

cisions with the Trinity fenc-
ers.

John Jacobs sprained his
hand Saturday in his last col-
lege foiling competition. The
Larchmont, N.Y. senior posted
a 3-5 record in the tournament.

The fencers fell only one win
short of a break-even season
this year winning six and los-
ing seven meets. Among the
Judges' victories were the con-
tests against Norwich, Yeshiva,
Holy Cross and Bradford-Dur-

Martinian expressed opti-
mism over next year's pros-
pects. The coach compared this
year's squad to the one for the
'65-'66 season, ''They're all
freshmen and sophomores now.
We lost 4 bouts by 1 point. You
can't go wrong with that." He
cited Cohen, John Kalish and
Dick Steinberg as his three
outstanding foilers this season.
Cohen paced the Brandeis team

ord.

Judges look ahead cautiously

to next year

So I said last year in this
column. There was an air of
cautious optimism. It was
quickly dispelled as the 1964-65
hoop season opened.

Things went from bad to
worse — in fact, we're at rock
bottom when it comes to bas-
ketball at Brandeis. And things
look worse for next year.

There are many reasons why
Brandeis completed its first
winless season in school his-
tory.

I hope, in the following series
of articles, to evaluate the
team's performance this year,
the prospects for next year, the
whys and wherefores of the de-
cline of Brandeis basketball
fortunes in the past five years,
and perhaps some concrete sug-
gestions on why and how we
should alleviate the situation.

This year we started the year
out with far-fetched hopes of
a .500 season. We knew we
weren't going to beat Boston
College or Assumption, but we
would fight — and did!

First the loss of several key
players before the season hurt
heavily. Dave Epstein, a team
leader, missed the first ten
games with a ruptured spleen
and did not return to form un-
till the last few weeks. Steve
Heller, perhaps the player with
the greatest potential, was kept
out of action all season with a
physical disorder.

The basic fact behind Bran-
deis' 0-21 record is not that the
players did not play up to their
potential in some games but that
there never was that much po-
tential.

All the Way

I can only suggest that per-
haps the attitude of the team
had much to do with the rec-
ord. It's hard to lay the blame
for this year on the team or the
coach. The coach, in my opin-
ion, could have done more to
correct the attitude of the team
— the "who gives a damn,'
"why bother," and the like.
Perhaps a little more discipline
might have helped.

Once we reached the 0-10
mark, one just had the feeling
we would go all the way. It's
ridiculous to pick out any par-
ticular game and say we should
have won — or that the coach
should have done this or that.

But the bare facts stand out
— we lost every one of those 21
games — whether we were lead-
ing at the half or not. Brandeis
is a loser — all the way.

What can we look for next
year? Another season without
any wins? Will Brandeis once
again — particularly the basket-
ball team — become the object
of abuse, humiliation and frus-
tration?

No Hope

Taking a look at next year's
returning players — what hope
is there? Not much for sure.
There may be no seniors on the
squad — Santo Cimino, Steve
Heller and Mike Leiderman are
doubtful.

As for the prospective jun-
iors — Barry Zimmerman will
have to be the club leader
Barry is a good ball player —
he had 400 points this season
and was the club's leading
scorer at a 19.0 clip — but he's
only 5-11 and still has to learn.

Richie Epstein could develop
into a fine court leader. He has
the ability and the desire. Steve

Goldstein has his height going
against him but might still
prove valuable. And then we
have Eric Epstein, Gerry Katz
and Dave Gordon to round out
the juniors.

Both Jack Rovner and Dave
Jacobson oflfer hope for next
year. The freshmen duo were
rushed too early this year into
starring roles. Rovner has
shown the fight and scoring
ability in the last few games
and will be a valuable starter
next year. Jacobson has to
learn to use his hands but can
jump and proved tough under
the boards. Many coaches, in-
cluding Dick Dukeshire of
Northeastern and Woody Grim-
shaw of Tufts, singled out Ja-
cobson as the outstanding
young pr^pect in the small
college circuit this winter.

Where does this leave us—
with a 5-11 and a 6-2 forward,
a 6-5 center, and a 5-10 and a
5-6 guard, with little or no re-
serves. Will this team be able
to go out against bigger oppo-
nents and win?

I am sick and tired of saying
— wait till the freshmen come
in. Two or three good ballplay-
ers entering next year will not
help us. We are in dire straits
— and something must be done.

In my opinion, freshmen
should learn the fundamentals
of basketball and college play
before they are cast in a star-
ring role. The players should-
n't have to start and face the
pressure and tension, as well as
the handicaps, of going against
seasoned varsity opponents.

Ten Athletes

The only way we are going
to have a good team in two or
three years (I'd rather forget
this year and perhaps next
year) — is to bring in ten fresh-
men athletes for the next few
years. Only if we do this will
varsity basketball have a prom-
ising future at Brandeis.

I am not advocating athletic
scholarships — nothing of the
sort. Just give the student-
athlete an incentive and a rea-
son to come to Brandeis — not
the all-powerful buck — and
I'm sure we can attract him.
Ten athletes, out of a male
freshman class of 230, is four
per cent. And we would have
a base to work with in basket-
ball and other varsity sports.

The athletic office has made
a sincere attempt to attract stu-
dent-athletes to Brandeis.
Coach Olin and Mrs. McKinney
have spent endless hours mail-
ing out letters to prospective
students. The rest is up to the
admissions' office and the ad-
ministration.

Last year several stu-
dent-athletes were accepted-^,
only two came to Brandeis.
Why? What do the other
s c h o ols offer that Brandeis
doesn't? I think the problem
lies in the fundamental concep-
tion of athletics at our liberal
arts university. If Brandeis is
going to compete with Wesley-
an, Williams. Swarthmore. or
Tufts in athletics, as well as
academics, an effort must be
made now to change our direc-
tion.

It is imperative that the ad-
ministration realize the dire
state of athletics, witness our
0-21 record, and the growing
concern within the student
body, the alumni, and the pub-
lic.

SBR Gives
Rep Place
To Kopolow

In its decision of March 12,
the Student Board of Review
upheld Louis Kopolow's right
to his Council seat as Sopho-
more representative and estab-
lished a precedent for its hand-
ling of contested Student Coun-
cil elections.

The case was brought to
the court by James Col-
man '67, who alleged that
Kopolow violated election reg-
ulations by examining the vot-
ing list at the voting place. Col-
man also maintained that a sign
displayed at the polling place
gave Kopolow a clear advan-
tage. Lastly the plaintiff stated
that the absentee ballots cast
after the opening of the polls
were counted illegally. Kopo-
low came in third in the elec-
tion by a margin of three votes

On the first point contested
by Colman, SBR decided that
while Koplow may have
violated the rules by look-
ing at the voting list, he could
have received no spccilic ad-
vantages to the extent of alter-
ing the outcome of the election.
The sign, Colman maintained,
gave his opponent direct ad-
vantage, but SBR decided that
it "cannot rely on broad prin-
ciples: it must limit its inquiry
to violations of specific regula-
tions." On the final issue, the
counting of absentee ballots,
SBR denied Colman's request
for additional time to gather
more evidence.

The importance of this deci-
sion rests on the precedent es-
tablished by SBR for consider-
ing an election, and its estab-
lishing of specific criteria upon
which an election would be in-
validated. The criterion is the
explicit proof of an election
rule infraction which gives one
candidate a specific advantage.

Brandeis Students Jailed,
One Hurt in Boston Sit-in

Eleven Brandeis students were arrested, and one, Bob Zellner, was injured by
police after a sit-in before the United States Attorney's Ollice in the Federal' Building
was disi>ersed at 10 p.m. Saturday by United States marshals.

The sit-in be^^an during the morninj? of Friday, March 12 when approximately
.35 students from various colleges in the Boston area occupied the first and eleventh
floors of the Federal building in downtown Boston. As the news of the sit-in demon-
stration spread. 150 other students joined the protest, which was directed against the
failure of the Federal government to protect the Negro citizens of Selma, Alabama.
Among this group of 200 were about 25 Brandeis students.

The demonstrators had originally hoped to maintain the sit-in until a Federal
protective force was sent into Alabama, or until the SN(^C leadership, under whose aus-
pices the sit-in was organized, sent the group to another site. However, being carried
out of the building was a "recognized possibility" from the beginning, and, after an

James Jackson, a Negro shot
in Selma, and Rev. James Reeb,
the Boston minister killed in
Selma. The scholarship fund
will each year help a needy
high school student, who has
*'worked for the cause of hu-
man equality and dignity",
through Brandeis.

Money for the scholarship
fund will be collected in part
from students and faculty. The
Administration has promised to
*'at least match" student-faculty
funds. Selection of tlie recipient
will be made by a committee
of students, faculty and admin-

Council To
Act on Fee
Controversy

The newly elected Student
Council, holding its lirst formal
meeting last Wednesday night,
postponed a decision until next
week's meeting on whether to
request the administration to
resume collection of the Stu-
dent Activities Fee. The fee,
which is presently collected by
the Council, provides almost
the entire income of the stu-
dent government.

The plan would have the ad-
ministration collect the activ-
ities payment as part of the
mandatory matriculation fee.
This had been the procedure
until last summer, when the
administration abruptly ter-
minated its collection of the
SAF forcing Council to levy
the fee on its own. The Bloch
plan however, arranged in con-
junction with Dean Morrissey,
dillers frotn previous arrange-
ments in that, under this pro-
posal. Council would maintain
compk'te fiscal autonomy in
handling the funds colledcd

After over two hours of heat-
ed debate, a pollin,^; of the
Council repealed that a ma-
jority of the members were
opposed to the Bloch plan. Joe
Shiildiner, '66, then moved to
table the entire proposal pend-
ing a sampling of student opin-
ion by Council me m b e r s
through a .series of dorm meet-
ings held this week The vote
on this motion was 6-G-l. Pres-
ident Bloch broke the tie by
voting to table The di.scussion
will be resumed at the next
meeting of Council, tomorrtiw
night at 6:00 p in in Mailman
Hall.

On Sunday, however, Dean
Morri.s.sey refu.sed comment on
whether Council would be al-
lowed to maintain con-
trol of the m o n e y if

ment, which is working with
Dr. Milton Vanger to develop a

has furnished the High School
with an extensive bibliography

other fields to talk with the
staff. It is ho|)ed that at least
part of the cour.se will be ready
for use next fall. Future plans
call for a similar semester
course to be developed for
Southeast Asian Studies.

Other Departments seem to
be more concerned with trying
to fit Brandeis faculty in as
lecturers, and even more than
this, in sending their best stu-
dents to Brandeis for cour.ses.
Many of the people on the High
Sciiool faculty seem uncom-
fortable a I) o u t approaching
Brandeis faculty members too
often. They seem to feel that
it wouk' be improper and pre-
sumptuous of them to be too
aggressive.

Students' Activities Fee

President Frank Bloch has suggested to Dean Morris-
sey that the administration take over the collection of the
activities tee. This suKKt^J^tion was prompted by the follow-
ing considerations: 1. Collection of the fee is a purely
clerical task, and as long as the administration does not
increase its control over student affairs as a result of
assuming this responsibility, it should do so. This would
permit ('ouncil to spend its time on more imjKjrtant issues,
|)articularly the revitalization of student activities. After
the activities were "revitalized" we would again take over
collection of the fee. 2. If the administration collected the
fee, close to 100*/« would in fact be collecte<l, thereby per-
mitting maximum allocations. 3. Enforcement — a problem
if Council collect e<l the fee — wouhl >)e entirely unnecessary
if the administration did the job.

The first consideration is mistaken on four counts. Dean
Morrissey has said that if collection becomes an administra-
tive responsibility, the administration will lay down restrictions
cm how the money is used. To use his own image, if daddy
is gomj» to collect iht kiddies' money he will have to decide
how it is spent. It is therefore wrong to suppose that there will
l3e n« administrative controls accompanyin-g administrative col-
lection. Furthermore even if Dean Morrissey satisfies Mr. Blochs
condition that a written guarantee be submitted to council stat-
ing that the administration will exercise no financial controls on
activities, does it follow that this guarantee in any way binds the
administration? We rwed not describe the hypocrisy that has at
times characterized administration policies in student affairs.
•*Presssures from above" can force a retraction of any such
guarantee, and if a retraction is made students wouJd be left
penniless and powerless.

Mr. Bloch maintain* that only after activities are revital-
ized, are made "going concerns," should the students re^jume
collecting the fee. Once the activities are well organized, he
says, problems of coll(K.'tion and enforcement will be minimized,
and we should therefore wait a year. It is, however, naive to
hope> there will be a sudden change in the "vitality" of Bran-
deis activities; it is questionable how much council alone can
improve t.he situation. We have heard promises such as this

before and have yet to see any positive results. Collection and
enforcement are the major problems created by student collec

tion. yet the clerical aspects of these problems will remain no
matter how long we wait. Finally, student collection can serve
as exactly the kind of catalyst nee<led to increase student in-
volvement in campus affairs; student collection of the fee can
be used to revitalize student activities. Delegating responsibility
in collection and subsequent enforcement to club and class
©flRcers will necessarily draw them closer to Council. This large
group can be instrumental in encouraging active student par-
ticipation in the general activities program and also can mini-
nnize the administrative responsibilities now envisaged to be
the burden of just the Student Council.

The second and third considerations are factually correct;
their implications, however, require examination. Council needs
only 90% of the projected total to carry on a full activities
program. This fact was proven this year. Mr. Bloeh himself
believes that this percentage could be collected, but not under
the present system of enforcement. He thinks that many people
will not pay the fee, thmhing that they will be able to get
something for nothing. As a result efficient collection would be
impossible. We suggest that if council— together with class and
club officers — organize and carry through a strict enforcement
program, this selfish attitude would no longer be a significant
problem and that the required amount could then be collected.

If council decides to continue collecting the lee, activity
autonomy would continue to rest in the hands of the students,
the council would become a stronger institution, and students
would gain a greater sense of irwolvement in campus activities.
Dean Morrissey does not think we should give up this responsi-
bility. And iw once, wc agree.

Letters to the Editor

ri% and ^pirii

There seems to be quite a
flurry of concern for the fu-
ture of sports at Brandeis. Pete
Weiner and Lloyd Michaels
have stated their support for
the giving of greater import-
ance to sports at the Univer-
sity. They see the current
sports situation as one which
will yield complete student
apathy and lack of pride in
their school. They feel that the
recruiting of scholastically
qualified athletes could solve,
or at least minimize the effects
of this problem.

They cite the results shown
at other scliools. such as Am-
herst, B o w d o i n, Williams,
Swarthmore and Wesleyan,
which have retained their high
academic standards and in-
crt^ased their prestige by en-
gaging qualified athletes. This
argument, I believe, is valid
when one tries to argue against
athleticism on a c a d e m i c
grounds, as the Administration
did, and rightly so, when it
abolished footbiill. The fact
that some of the Brandeis grid-
iron repre.sentatives did not
fare well in the classrooms is
not sufficient reason to reject
all recruiting: it is only suffi-
cient to demand a more rigor-
ous standard of admissions.

Ivy League?

However, Brandeis is not
Ivy League; it does not want
to be Ivy League; it should
not be Ivy League. Because
Harvard, Yale, Dartmouth —
or even Swarthmore or Wes-
leyan — does something is no
reason why Brandeis should
play "follow the leader." Per-
hajXF it is time for Brandeis to
take a position of leadership
for a change It is not an estab-
lished maxim that a school can-
not survive without recruiting
athletes.

The best argument against
Lloyd Michaels' proposed plan
of creating interest in Brandeis
among athletes just by send-
ing out letters with five cents
of postage is the following:
Whenever a decision to admit
one of thc^e scholar-athletes
who had not been interested in
Brandeis before the letter or
the pep talk by an alumnus or
friend of Brandeis, or even a
coach, the Office of Admis-
sions has tc) reject the applica-
tion of another qualified can-
candidate perhaps even one
more qualified Or it may
choose the sdiolar-athlete over
someone with neiuly equal
qualifications who had really
wanted to come here and who
needed no pep talk or letter.
The pri<e seems minute, except
when you put yourself in the
position of having been reject-
ed for such reasons.

As to spirit, Brandeis again

should divorce itself from the
ivy-covered tradition. Brandeis
spirit is not Ivy League spirit,
nor is it suitable to any other
single typt> in the country. It
is unique, and I feel that the
school is the better for it, al-
though its manifestation is all
too often weak and obscure.

School Pride

The Brandeis spirit is (or,
perhaps I should say. .should
be) one of respect for the insti-
tution for what it gives you,
for the type of individual inr.t
it molds you into. Such a spirit
is not a sports spirit; it is one
that should bt> with you con-
stantly.

Of course intercollegiate
athletics should be maintained,
but sports should serve the
needs of the student body, not
the alumni. And I feef that
Brandeis sports are now orient-
ed towards that goal and
should continue to be Tne
basketball games, especially
those of Saturday nights, are
attended by far more lans than
critics of the sports program
here are willing to admit.
Student Answer

Tlie problem as J see it is
not one of recruiting athletes,
nor is it one of instilling spirit
into the student body. The pro-
blem is the increasing pressure
put on the Administration to
either foster this spirit or to
give up athletics for gwd. This
is not an administrative prob-
lem; it is one the students must
resolve by themselves. I think
the best answer the students
can arrive at is to accept athle-
tics as "sports." not as big col-
lege business. When a more re-
laxed attitude is fostered and
when the pressure to show
one s spirit is removt^d then
and only then. I believe, will
a truly representative .student
spirit emerge from its forced
confines.

To the Editor:

The Committee for an Ideal
Campus would like to set in
more specific terms what we
last week called "disturbing
trends in educational policy"
at Brandeis (See Justice,
March 9).

The University deserts the
educational ideal whenever
public prestige is valued above
the search for truth. One may
point to the growing power of
professors whose forte is pub-
lishing books while avoiding
contact with time-consuming
undergraduates. The prestige
professors are replacing the
dedicated teachers and the out-
spoken heretics; they are con-
vertmg their departments into
elbcient, inexpensive iactorie*

w^hose products are standard
lectures, teaching assistants,
curriculum regimentation, and
uncontroversial subject matter.
The CIC has tried to help
those instructors who are still
interested in working with un-
dergraduates in small classes.
Unfortunately, the administra-
tion finds seminar classfs un-
impressive, expensive, and dif-
ficult to control.

How can the situation be
remc^died? Most importantly,
creative students and dedicated
teachers have got to stick to-
gether and keep the under-
graduate departments free
from outside control. Once this
is achieved changes can be ex-
pected. Perhaps small sem-
i n a r s, well-paid instructors,
novel coiirses, creative educa-
tional techniques, and a new
concern for undergraduate edu,
cation can become the rule
rather than the exception at
Brandeis.

Various departments have al-
ready befiun to experinunt
with giving students greater in-
dependence, a more intriguing
curriculum, and senior profes-
sors for teachers in elementary
classes. But while there has
been progress, there have also
l>een setbacks like the recent
dismissal of Dr. John Vitkers,
a dedicated undergr;;ciuate
teacher. Some departments
still prefer Reputation.

mittee for an Ideal Campus.

To the Editor:

Since the founding of the
University, Brandeis students
have bt^en sensitive to the opin-
ions of others. This gamut of
reference groups has included
the opinions of graduate stu-
dents and faculty ofT the cam-
pus as well as the Grenip. the
businessmen and their Sister-
hood who have done so much
to make Brandeis into an Es-
tablishment. One section of
opinion which views Brandeis
as "a beautiful campus." "has-
n't it grown." "it's really a fine
school," and "he speaks f^o
well," must be regarded as im-
portant, although not altogeth-
er relevant to standards of e^x-
cellence. As a former student
at Brandeis ('56), I have found
that a spectre is haunting many
alumni, the spectre of Bran-
deis' reputation anvong acade-
micians.

The conversation of alumni,
after weaving through t h e
threads of position, graduc-ite
school, love, marriage, divorce,
reminiscence, revaluations of

up in order.

"Big Weekend"

The traditional lament of the
all-tnale school is quite evident
at Wesleyan. Social Ife is
oriented entirely towards the
"big weekend" with the result-
ing formalization of the date. In
addition, to an observer ac-
customed to a co-educational
school, it seems rather strange
and uncomfortable to sit df wn
in a class in which there are no

it accounts, in part, for the
dominant atmosphere of con-
serv.it ism held both by the ad-
ministration and the student
body.
Administration Conservatism
Administrative conservatism
is manifested mainly in non-
recognition or tight regulation
of all student political groups.
The one civil rights group
which is allowc^d on campus
is the NAACP( and students
told Us that this is virtually
non-existent); if students wish
to participate in more militant
civil rights groups, they must
go off campus and work with
other chapters. A two year,
two-hour-a-week compulsory
ROTC program for all male
undergrads also typifies the ad-

als ascribe to them. One visi-
ble result of this is the wide-
spread apathy and hostility
many there feel toward the
civil rights movement.

Aside from such obvious dif-
ferences as the presence of fra-
ternities, and being in a large
city, the basic difference be-
tween Howard and Brandeis is
in each school's administra-
tion-student relationship. The

criminatory than most frater-
nities. For example, 1 lived m a
fraternity calle»d EQV (Esse
Quam Videri, to be rather than
to seem) which broke with a
national fraternity over the na-
tional's discriminatory prac-
tices and became a local. Mauy
of the fraternities are locals,
and most of the nationals seem
to be less discriminatory than
those at other schools. Never-
theless, on principle if on noth-
ing else, I must say that here
1 prefer the Brandeis sy.stem.

The dormitory system is vast-
ly superior to Brandeis. While
they segregate freshmen, they
at least provide them with new
dorms in which each freshman
has a single room with a bal-
cony coming off the room. In
addition they are building new
upperclass dorms which will
be four-man iive-room suiters.
Before Brandeis builds its next
dormitories it might be a good
idt»a to find out how Wesleyan
can afford to build such luxu-
rious dormitories.

A striking difference be-
tween the schools is the degree
to which the average Woslry.an
student is apolitical Whereas at
Brandeis 600 students showed
up for the rally on Vietnam,
only 12 did at Wesleyan This
lack of intere.st in political af-
. fairs ranges from international

quirement exceeds the federal
requirement. Finally, while
there is a cordial and apparent-
ly frictionless relationship be-
tween administration and stu-
dents, the ultimate control over
the students' even apolitical
activities, (such as publica-
tions, registering of off-campus
fraternity parties, tlio non-ex-
istence of parietals) is found
contrary to the standards of tlie
liberal university.

No Student Resistance

The conservatism of the
majority of students means
that there is little resistance
to the 'benevolent parent" at-
titude of the administration. A
small numl>er of boys have
protested the ROTC regulation,
but there is no organized fight
to gain increased social auton-
omy. Perhaps most disappoint-
ing, from my point of view,
there is the indifference — in
some cases, hostility — to par-
ticipation in political action.
Hov/ever, a small nucleus of
politically - oriented students,
mainly SNCC workers, do
work off-campus, and some
take leaves of absence to work
in Mississippi. Most of the stu-
dent body is, by their own ad-
mission, party-oriented, and
membership in a fraternity or
sorority is a mark of prestii*e
in many circles. Even for those
who are not "Greek", there are
manv parties and dances each
week-end. In short, the typi-
cal Howard student corres-
ponds quite closely to the mid-
dle-class negro in Black Bour-
geoisie, by E. Franklin Frazier,
head of Howard's sociology de-
partment until his death three
years ago.

Classes at Howard do not
generally correspond in level
to Brandeis classes. They are
quite large and have reading
lists more elementary and less
interesting than the readings
here. There are, however, sev-
eral excellent courses in Nei»ro
sociology and history. An ex-
tensive program of African
studies offers Swahili and sev-
eral other African languages.
The students do not study with
any visible intensity (except
the science and ent^ineering
students) but do complete their
required written work, more (»f

ernment finance in the economy; justification for government intervention in

medical care program, a public housing program, and a national defense program; and prob-
lems of taxation

Using criteria gleaned from the course, such as efficient allocation of resources, equity
consideraiions, desirability of government intervention and degree of coercion involved, the
students were asked to evaluate the financing system of the Brandeis Student Union. The fol-
lowing articles were adapted from two opposing answers to the following question:

"The Brandeis Student Union is a largely self-governing organization with considerable
responsibility in managing its own affairs. The Union elects its own legislative and judicial
branches, allocates funds for student activities, etc. Each Brandeis student pays an annual $30
student activities fee collected by the Student Council. This Student Union tax. established by
referendum, is allocated each fall and spring by the Student Council to the various student
organizations. The budget, which must be confirmed by student referendum, provides funds
for almost all campus activities, lectures, concerts, and publications Within the student
activities fee system, each student is entitled to free access to student-run activities regardless
of his financial resources." — Brandeis Student Handbook, 1964-65.

From your understanding of the economics of government, give a detailed justification (or
critique) of the practice of distributing student government services "free" (i.e., imposing no
direct charges on users). What changes in charges would you recommend?"

Pre-Med Society, etc.. where the benefits from
the services accrue directly to the individuals
involved in them, and where the effects on the
community at large are minimal. It would be
fair, simple, and more equitable to finance
these activities by charging a price to those who
use them, rather than financing them out of
general taxation.

One may argue that attendance at student-
sponsored activities would not be as great if
they were financed through charging a price to

The Student Activities Fee, as it exists, en-
titles all Brandeis students to participate in any
and all campus functions without any charges
beyond the initial $30 fee. I can find few valid
objections to the suggestion Uiat we eliminate
the current systt»m.

Equalize Opportunity

By equalizing the opportunity to "enjoy"
campus activities, the "head" tax which is im-
posed upon all undergrads is of a regressive
nature. The inequities created by rej;ressive
taxation are overcome (in this case) by the
many and varied privileges that accrue to the
individual, and by the fact that the fee is a
nominal one.

In order that the imposition of the tax does
not become burdensome, a median has been
attained— a level at which the payment of the
tax oppresses few. Thus, while the tax is re-
gressive, it considers the majority. And many
students prefer the idea of a single tax over
numerous charges. If a tax is to remain the
means for financing school activities, a "head"
tax is the only reasonable approach; for we
have no other basis for a more equitable tax!

The education, which we at Brandeis receive,
is in the true nature of the liberal arts. Our
education is meant to exceed the limits of
"book-knowledge." There are many other facets

the user instead of through funds from general which should cdncern us — the political, econom

taxation. What this argument means is that the
individual is being forced to pay for a service,
through general taxation, which he might not
consider worth its cost if he had to pay for it in
the form of an a'^niission charge. By this meth-
od, the individual is prevented from evaluating
the true costs and benefits to him of the service
being offered. Under the current system, once
the individual has paid his Activities Fee. he
has pa'd for every service, regardless of wheth-
er or not he values it, so that the only area of

ic, and social doings in our society. By olTering
the opportunity to all, the SAF encourages par-
ticipation; in many cases, the added incentive
of "free admission" that attracts a student to
a campus activity is res[>onsible for broadening
of horizons.

New channels can be opened by a stimulating
lecture, participation in a campus clui). or by
perusing the Justice. These benefits are more
than personal; they extend to those with whom
we come in contact. Although Brandeisians

whether to participate in something for which
he has already paid.

It is also an*ued thai paying the Activities

I found highly disturbing.

The honor code is the m(*st
distinctive thing about the
campus. If a student wishes, he
may take his exam out of the
examination room and to his
own room, or to any other loca-
tion. If he wishes a periodical

Perspective on Quiet Escalation

By CARL SHEINCOLD

A refreshing note of confu-
sion characterized the March
discussion on Vietnam, spon-
sored by the campus A.D.A.
Cold War life has accustomed
us to the politics of crisis which
breeds panic meetings and
oversimplifications of the com-
plexities of international rela-
tions. The student brand of
panic — a mixture of shame for
our country and fear of immi-
nent destruction — may be a
necessary balance for the war-
hawk panic on the other side.
However, it is good to hear oc-
casionally that the problems
are indeed complex, that
"good" and "evil" judgments
are not the best analytical
tools, and that solutions arc
neither easy to come by nor
clear in their results. This "pol-
itics of perspective" was the
theme in ;tddresses by Drs.
Hind ley, Roche, and Coser.

Dr. Hindley is an expert on
Southeast Asian alTairs. He
outlined four basic questions
about which he was perplexed.

What are Chinese objectives?
Of course, we don't know, but
three well-documented theories
are available, a) The Chinese
are seeking to assert control
over all Southeast Asia. This
policy has traditional roots —
Burma, Laos, Cambodia, Thai-
land, and Vietnam have sent
tribute to Peking for centuries
— which are reinforced by the
Communist nature of the gov-
ernment. Evidence supporting
this hypothesis includes Chi-
nese claims over Soviet Central
Asia, recent Chinese suppres-
sion of Tibet, and eflorts to
bring Mongolia back into her
sphere.

"Non-anti-Peking" Regimes

b) China is .seeking to reas-
sert control over China proper,
but in Southeast Asia, she is
seeking to establish "non-anti-
Peking regimes." This policy
is similar to United States ix)l-
icy in Latin America. It would
explain the evidence offered for
the first hypothesis, for all of
those territories have been part
of China proper. Positive evi-
dence is provided by Chinese
policy toward Hong Kong and
Macao; neither are part of the
"Western defense system and
both are allowed relatively
peaceful existences. Further,
China is on reasonable terms
with Burma, Cambodia, and In-
donesia, all of whom have per-
secuted the Communist parties
of their countries.

Finally, China's objectives
might be in part a reflection
of what other people do: assert-
ing firm control if faced with
firm opposition and vice versa.

All of these hypotheses im-
ply a totally diflerent appro-
priate U. S. policy.

Multi-polar World

What are possible U. S. ob-
jectives? Any discussion of U.S.
objectives must be preceded
by a recognition that we are no
longer faced with a bipolar
world (Communist Russia vs.
the U. S.); that the monolith
has collapsed and we are now
dealing with independent Com-
munist parties.

a) Russian influence, consid-
ered pleasantly bourgeoise and
status quo, is negligible in
Southeast Asia, and we might
even want to bolster it. If the
Viet Cong wins, it would be a
victory for the Chinese argu-

Reston: "This is no time to be
dogmatic about what should be
done in Vietnam . . . but the
least the President can do is to
go before the country and ex-
plain his objectives."

ment for national liberation
through armed rebellion.
Therefore, this view would
seem to justify the aim of
"knocking hell out of the Viet
Cong" and pro\ide the basis of
Russian sympathy for such an
aim.

Prior to Karl Marx

b) The aim implied negative-
ly in the first hypothesis is that
of diminishing Chinese influ-
ence in Southeast Asia. Dr.
Hindley came to the ironical
conclusion that the most effec-
tive barrier to Chinese influ-
ence and expansion might pos-
sibly be a Viet Minh controlled
South Vietnam. This stems
from the long history of na-
tionalist autonomy and fear of
Chinese imperialism dating
from before Karl Marx, much
less the Viet Cong. The com-
plexity of policy-making is
clearly illustrated by a juxta-
position of these two hypoth-
eses. A Viet Cong victory
would be a victory for Chinese
id(H>logy, but also an efTective
block to Chinese expansion.

Feb. 14:

Reston: "The time has come to
call a spade a bloody shovel.
This country is in an unde-
clared and unexplained war in
Vietnam." "The whole history
of this century testifies to the
difficulty of predicting the
consequences of war.

»»

The proposal with which Dr.
Hindley seemed most in sym-
pathy was that we should at-
tempt to bolster non-commu-
nists while refusing to fight
against communists if the non-
communists don't carry out re-
forms. The most basic fact of
life in Southeast Asia is that
only a ri.se in the standard of
living will provide a real bar-
rier to communism and a basis
for a viable .society.

A Plausible Explanation

Dr. Hindley was referring to
broad U. S. objectives, but one
of the specific problems of ana-
lyzing this crisis has been the
secrecy of the Administration
concerning their specific objec-
tives and their strategy of the
moment. Administration pub-
lic relations has been of the
"news-leak to favorite report-
er" variety with, as yet, no
clear-cut statement of purpo.se
by a responsible official. This
has been a major contributing
factor to assumptions of Ad-
ministration ignorance and
simplicity on the part of its
critics.

The only article I have found
which gives a plausible and
coherent explanation of our
policy was written by Robert
Kleiman in the New York
Times of March 1 (a little less
than a month after the crisis
started). "American and South
they are 'virtually certain' that
Vietnamese officials here say
President Johnson has decided
to open a continuing limited
war against North Vietnam to
bring about a negotiated settle-
ment of the Vietnam problem
on honorable terms. They say
the air attacks would be unre-
lated to specific provocations."

This plan was originally pro-
po.sed during the summer as
the McNamara-Bundy propo-
.sal and was revised in Decem-
ber. "The December plan pro-
posed that North Vietnam be
given indications that there
could be a better route to eco-
nomic viability, to the rice of
South Vietnam, and to inde-
pendence from China than the
reunification of Vietnam by
force. This alternative to ag-
gression— including trade with
the West, increased diplomatic
recognition, possible food-for-
peace aid, and international de-
velopment assistance was to
be made more attractive by the
opening of a low intensity
war against North Vietnam

These raids would have
curred twice a week; they
would not have been publicly
announced; they would have
been of low intensity. The rea-
sons for this kind of strategy
were that large scale attacks
would risk Chinese interven-
tion, "would make it more dif-
ficult for North Vietnamese
leaders to back down without
a loss of prestige," and would
put the West under pressure to
begin premature talks.

The present crisis began with
Viet Cong raids on American
billets on Feb. 7 and 8. Our
response to these raids com-

air

»»

oc-

prised large scale public retali-
ations, precisely the kind
which were warned against in
the December Plan. The prob-
lems anticipated did, in fact,
materialize and on February
11 "the December plan, in the
President's drawer for two
months, was pulled out" and
adopted with minor revisions.
A Reassuring Explanation
The goal of the policy is pri-
vate talks between Hanoi and
Saigon rather than a large
scale international conference.
"A cease-fire before negotia-
tions was not considered feas-
ible on either side. But Hanoi
would be expected to show
good faith by accepting, prob-
ably tacitly, a progressive re-
duction in military activity on
both sides, similar to the one
that paved the way for French-
Algerian negotiations in the
early 1960's. The chief objec-
tive, it is reported, would be
to get Hanoi to agree to a
cease-fire accompanied by the
evacuation of Communist
guerillas, as in 1954 and 1955
when 120,000 men moved to
the North. In return, Saigon
would agree to a phased reduc-
tion of American troops to the
680-man military aid mission
authorized by the 1954 Geneva
accord."

Such a description is most
rea.ssuring. First, it indicated
that the Administration is cog-
nizant of such historical factors
as anti-Chinese national au-
tonomy in Southeast Asia. It
also corrects the notion fos-
tered by the Administration's

that it is not necessarily ridicoi-
lous to bomb the north. In fact,
it would seem (through all of
his speech Dr. Hindley was not
stating his opinions but rather
raising the possibilities inher-
ent in these questions) that the
cheapest way to stop this dirty
guerilla war in terms of lives
and money would be to threat-
en hell in the north. If it is in
fact an international war, why
fight the guerillas on their bat-
tlefield when our strength ob-
viously lies in fhe air and sea?
Here, Dr. Hindley mentioned
the "brutal liberal heart
search" which is appalled when
whites kill people of darker
skins. Despite the fact that
bombing in the north would
kill people, if it shortened the
war it would, in the end, save
lives both north and south.

Viet Cong? It would appear
that the majority of the South
Vietnamese wish

simple-minded public rhetoric,
that the only basis for negoti-
ations would be complete capit-
ulation by Hanoi. Tlie policy is
still questionable on many
grounds, but at least it seems
to be rational; furthermore, the
critics and defenders seem to
be talking about the same
world.

Unfortunately, we were back
to the world of unreality on
the next day as Arthur Krock
reported, "the Department of
State is disturbed over the
widespread acceptance of its
'White Paper' on the North
Vietnamese aggression in South
Vietnam as notice of a change
in U. S. policy. " Perhaps the
most disturbing thing about
this crisis is not the policy it-
self, which seems at least rea-
sonable, but the fact that the
administration has insisted on
committing the country to it in
utter secrecy. The "President
of all the people" seems to trust
very few of the people.

The Libera! Heart-Search

Is it a Civil War? The answer
is no. The war was begun by
Hanoi and is led by Hanoi with
the aim of uniting Vietnam
against the will of the southern
ruling groups. In fact, no war
of this nature can properly be
called a Civil War. It is now
"one world" and all wars have
international dimensions aiid
are being watched by all of the
elites and aspiring elites of the
world. It is true that most of
the wenp>ons and troops of the
Viet Cong are southern, but
the majority of them went
North in '54 and have now re-
turned imder Hanoi's instruc-
tions. It is also true that the
Viet Cong are thriving on
grievances of the southern
people, but the fact remains
that terror is w^idcly employed.
The gist of this discussion is

approximately 20.000 village
ofljcers by the Viet Cong.

In conclusion. Dr. Hindley
asserted that those who do sup-
port the Viet Cong don't sup-
port them in order to establish
a Communist state. They want
land, education, and freedom
to do what they want to do,
and this is precisely what Mill
rot follow a Viet Cong victory.
The first events after the Viet
Minh victory in the North was
the forced institution of collect-
ivization, a peasant revolt, and
finally, a blood bath.

Dr. Coser gave a standard
and convincing plea for nego-
tiations, but ended his talk on
a new and interesting note. He
reiterated that although nego-
tiations would end the present
bloodletting, the end effect
would be a stabilization of the
present balance of power, i.e.,
efTective communi.st control
over South Vietnam. In fact.
Dr. Coser recommended a with-
drawal of genuine anti-commu-
ni.sts to prevent a bloodletting
by the Viet Cong. Our only
hope is that a fear of Chinese
imperialism would lead toward
a "Titoistic" government He
agreed that thi.^ was a grim
prospect, but it was merely a
recognition of the unprece-
dented power of the commu-
nists in Vietnam. Thus, Dr
Coser, the "leftist," came to
the same conclusion as the Ad-

March 3:

"1 6 0 r.S. AND SAIGON

PLANES BOMB NORTH "

"Official spokesmen took the
position that there was nothing
unusual about such attacks .
privately, however, officials
here have acknowledged for
some time that raids against the
North represent a major tacti-
cal change and a form of step-
ping up the war in Vietnam."

M

ministration as to the results of
negotiations. Of course, the
judgements they make from
this conclusion are different.

Dr. Roche contributed three
major perspectivistic points a)
He called for a sense of prior-
ities in Asia. The two major
lines of force in Asia arc India
and Malaysia-Indonesia. In-
stead of making our committ-
ment in either of these places
we are fighting in the "Bal-
kans" of Asia (Dr. Roche drew
an analogy between the war in
Vietnam and the Greek civil
war in 1947).

Dr. Roche would like to be
able to save Vietnam, but the
inability of Uie South Viet-

geography, he is basing it upon
principle. India is truly trying
to work out a democratic so-
ciety, and therefore, in sym-
bolic terms, if she falls the
dominoes start flying.)

(b) We must rid ourselves
of the notion that we are deal-
ing with agrarian radicals. The
first thing "dear old Ho" did
when he assumed control of
North Vietnam was to kill 10-
15 thousand Trotskyists. We are
dealing with "big time oper-
ators" and although for tactical
reasons Dr. Roche feels we
must pull out, he feels so re-
gretfully. There is a justifica-
tion for trying to prevent a
communist take-over of South
Vietnam, although A<lmin-
istration phrases like "battle
for freedom," hardly get it
across. One does not have to
condone the southern landlords
to oppose the kind of govern-
ment which will probably re-
sult from a Viet Cong victory.

Enter: The GOP

(c) The final question is
really whether we are prepared
to fight another Korea. A con-
sideration of this problem must
deal with American domestic
politics. The Democratic party
has the role of being the party
of appeasement ;ind the
war party. Although Republi-
can leaders are now pressing
for escalation, if it should re-
sult in a major war it will
surely be branded "Johnsons
War" in 1968.

It \^ futile to try to present a
summary of the meeting, for its
major effect was to show the
confusion, complexity and in-
coherence of much that is go-
ing on. There did seem to be
general agreement on two ma-
jor points, (a) The major rea-
son we are in trouble, ano the
major argument for withdiaw-
al, involves the failure (shared
by the U.S. and South Viet-
namese elites) to construct a
"viable society." (b) The ma-
jor danger of our present policy
of escalation is that we over-
estimate the directness of
Northern control over events
south of the 17th Parallel. Al-
though there is general con-
trol, there can never be control
over single acts of violence. As
Dr. Roche put it, we are in
great danger of another Sara-
jevo.

Electronic music was dis-

other arts. It was said that any

speak of this in connection with

forms is it possible to have a
form more organic than this?

The proposed compromise
was based on President Bloch's
conviction that the Student

student checkers to prevent
those who had not paid from

sored activities. He also pro-
posed withholding all Council

lection of 80 to 90 per cent of

ideal behind the Activities Fee
is not really valid. The Activ-
ities Fee as it now stands is
what is known as a regressive
tax. Since scholarships do not
cover payment of tlie Activ-
ities Fee, the student of limited
means is taxed by the same
amount as the wealthy student.
This in itself is inequitable;
but what about the needy stu-
dent who pays his fee in Sep-
tember, and then, in June finds
that he hasn't consumed $30's
worth of services? Wouldn't he
be better off on a pay-as-you-

go system? Regarding the
needy student who does want
to partake of many services, a
system of subsidization could
be arranged.

I would recommend levying
a small general tax to be used
for sponsoring activities with
important effects on the com-
munity as a whole (e.g.,
SPEAC), but financing other
services by charging those who
use them, with some provisions
for subsidizing those to whom
such a system would be overly
burdensome.

hibiting the rt^aci'.tig of any
jo.ir:\als by those who are not

istrators would find it difficult

to exclude a student from at-
tending an assigned lecture.

Another claim against the
collection of the SAF is that al-
locating the funds among many
sources limits "big" attrac-
tions. Since the formation of
the Student Service Bureau,
this argument is no longer
valid. "Those who cry for ex-
tended activities can purchase
them through the SSB.

Convenience, Too

In the case of either the pres-
ent SAF or individual admis-
sion charges, an attendant
would be needed to verify en-
trance or collect the fee. In the
former case, however, the pro-
cedure has become simplified
and requires less foresight —

the need for competent help at
the door, police protection, and
an adequate supply of change.
We can thus argue that the col-
lection of the SAF is more con-
venient from the administra-
tive point of view.

The benefits which the SAF
offers to the students are as
vital as the other elements of
a Brandeis education. The col-
lection of the SAF should not
be removed because some stu-
dents claim that the nominal
fee of $30 is an outrageous
sum. For it is for these students
— the ones who do not avail
themselves of extracurricular
activities — that the paternalistic
effects of the SAF are most
necessary.

Weslevan

(Contii^ucd jroin Page J)

It is far from it — there are
far too many ways in which
the students are not consulted-
and there is no institutionalized
requirement for consultation.
Nevertheless, there is an old
Negro comparison given to
white southerners who cf»m-
plain that the north should l^e

Company is:

responsibility

Stephen Jnefer
B.B.A., Unit, of Pitlalntrgh

A key dimension of any job is the responsibility
involved. Graduates who join Ford Motor Com-
pany find the opfK)rtunity to accept responsibility
early in their careers. The earlier the better. How-
ever, we know the transition from the academic
world to the business world requires training.
Scholastic achievements must be complemented by
a solid understanding of the practical, day-to-day
as()ects of the business. I'hat is the most direct
route to accomplishment.

Stephen Jaeger, of the Ford Division's Milwaukee
District Sales Office, is a good example of how it
works. His first assignment, in January, 1963,
was in the Administrative Der>artment where he had the op|>ortunity to
become familiar with procedures and communications between dealerships
and the District Office. In four months he moved ahead to the Sales Plan-
ning and Analysis Department as an analyst. He studied dealerships in
terms of sales history, market penetration and potentials, and model miK.
This information was then incorporated into master plans for the District.
In March, 1964, he was promoted to Zone Manager— working directly with
19 dealers as a consultant on all phaaes of their complex operations. This
involves such areas as sales, finance, advertising, customer relations and
business management. Responsible job? You bet it is — es|>ecially for a man
not yet 25 years old. Over one million dollars in retail sales, annually, are
involved in just one dealership Steve contacts.

wagons to second and fourth
precinct stations.

They were bailed out a few
hours later with money pro-
vided by SNCC and Students
for a Democratic Society. Oth-
er demonstrators, who, when
ejected, also sat ©n the side-
walk, dispersed between 12:3€
and 1:00 a.m. Sunday nM>rn-

ing.

Among those arrested were
eleven Brandeis students. These
included Bob Zellner and Mar-
tha Older, both graduate stu-
dents, and undergraduates
Mitch Benoff, Paul Broeker,
Joel H e 1 1 e r, Mark Isenberg,
Herb Kressel, Eric Lemberg,
Charles Novogrodsky and Ron
Shuffler. Bob Zellner received
a concu.ssion either from the
ei^ht policeman who lifted him
from the sidewalk, or as a re-
sult of being thrown into the
paddy-wagon, and was hospi-
talized until early Sunday
morning.

Both regular precinct police
and special "tactical police"
took part in the arrests of the
fsliidents. According to Campus
SNCC representative Peter
Rothstein '66, who took part in
the sit-in but avoided arrest,
the "tactical police' were "goon
boys . . . playing for keeps."
When Zellner was being car-
ried to the paddy wagon, he
yelled that his finger had been

broken by one cop, and an-
other had jabbed a thumb in
his eye. He also yelled out a
badge number." The demon-
strators had on their part em-
ployed no violence, according
to Rothstein.

The sit-in, which began on
Friday morning at 7:30, gained
momentum through-out the
day. Demonstrators, planning
to spend the night, brought
bo<^«, blankets, flashlights, and
food. Although no one was to
be allowed into the building
after 5;30 p.m., which was clos-
ing time, authorities allowed
Brandeis Dean Leonard Zion to
enter on Saturday. Dean Zion,
working with the agreement of
David Rolbein, head of Univer-
sity Finances, and Norman
Grimm, dining hall manager,
brought 200 box lunches with
him, in addition to the 70
lunches that Dr. Daniel Bennett
of the philosophy department
brought in late Friday after-
noon.

Partially because of the
ready solution of the food situ-
ation, and partially because of
what Dean Zion termed the
"courteous treatment" of t h e
demonstrators by the Federal
officials on Friday, morale was
"generally good" throughout
Friday night and into Saturday.
At about 9 p m. on Friday eve-
ning. United States Attorney
Garrity spoke to the demon-

Fantasticks

{Continued jrom Page 5)

Bradley Solomon, the direc-
to, has waved his magic wand,
sprinkled fairy dust on one and
all and has conjured up a "de-
light to the eye and ear", "cap-
tivating", "should run forever",
"best damn musical I've seen
in years!", "1 laughed through
my tears", "fun for everyone
from 9 to 99". He has assem-
bled a competent cast who
seem to know what they are
doing most of the time. The
singing is good. The music is
nice. The staging is adequate.
The lighting is superb.

Marilyn Siskin as the Girl
gives a first-rate performance.
Her sense of timing is flawless,
her voice is pleasant, her stage
movement is never consciously
theatrical, always fluid and
natural. She is far and away
fhe best thing about the pro-
duction. Kenny Shapiro as the
Narrator is appropriately oily
and omniscient. His voice is
very good, and he is alw.'.ys
believable and never strained.

Aside from these two there
is nothing very extraordinary
about the cast. Roy Stevens
(the Old Actor) looks like
Buster Keaton and cant help
being fimny. If his piMicrm-
ance is a little too mucii of a
piece it is not his fault since
this is the way the part is
written. He is ably assisted by
Jon Hoffman who has some
wonderful comic moments but
who could have been much
funnier if given more direction
(in particular, his "death"
might have been more broadly
and imaginatively conceived).

Jeff Jacobs and James Gay
as the two fathers were a bit
disappointing. Tliese are the
best parts in the show and
much more could have been
done with them. Mr. Gays per-
formance in particular was re-
petitious and unoriginal. Funny
at first, he did the siime "mugs"
and routines over and over

again until the humor disap-
peared and we were left with
a character who seemt^ only
grotesque. His sense of comic
timing is poor and many funny
lines failed to evoke an audi-
ence response simply because
of his slow delivery. Jeff
Jacobs was somewhat better
and, with more direction, might
have really been very good in-
deed. As it was, the number
Never Say "No" was fine (but
how could it miss?) while
Plant a Radish was disappoint-
ing.

Richard Agrin as the Boy
never kept up with the spark-
ling pace set by Miss Siskin.
While she seemed always de-
lightful, he was merely "silly".
While she managed to demon-
.strate some "character develop-
ment" (?) in the second Act.
he kept the same ciuizzical and
somewhat vacuous expression
on his face throughout. I never
entirely understood how 1 was
supposed to react to his ad-
ventures away from home.
Were they horrifying? Was I
supposed to Unrn a serious
moral from all this? Or wa.« I
supposed to laugh and remain
"charmed"? Mr. Solomon's di-
rection left these fjuestions un-
answered although he seemed
to be taking the play's "theme"
rrther «-crioi;<ly (the line.
"You mu.st always leave the
wnll" was delivered with a
st^lemnitv comparable to the
classic. "Hell is other p<ople"
aphorism in No Exit).

So nu? Alan Mande deserves
special credit for his lighting
which was both intrrr«^ting and
imaginative. And Judy Allen
(as the Mute) must receive
«;pecial recognition for remain-
ing sombre and expressionless
throughout the play as if the
events transpiring before her
eyes were of Sophoclean mag-
nitude. If Samuel Beckett ever
gets around to adapting Mary
Poppins for the stage, she is
a natural for the title role.

(Continued from Page 2)
woof of education and the warp
of reputation. As students, we
often felt isolated on "Hebrew
Hill" and out of the view of
the "real world," only to dis-
cover later than every Univer-
sity is a fish bowl which leaks
enough information and gossip
to make you feel that you were
born to be an "inside dope-
ster." This feeling is «|uickly

strators, noting that he was "in
sympathy" with their purposes,
and asking them to leave in
light of the "partial accom-
plishment" ef their goal. SNCC
leaders decided, however, to
stay until Federal officers were
sent to Alabama.

On Saturday, according to
SNCC representative Rothstein,
"the tenor changed." Lavatory
facilities were cut off from those
students on the first floor. Gar-
rity again spoke to the demon-
strators, at about 9:30 p.m., in
order to read a prepared state-
ment ordering them to leave
within the half-hour. When
they refused. Federal Marshals
began carrying the demonstra-
tors downstairs. A "flying
wedge' of "tactical police"
formed a cordon around the
door: it was these police who
arrested those students who
tried to prevent the ejection.
By 10:30 p m.. the building had
been cleared. SNCC attorney
Edwin Hamada made bail ar-
rangements for those who had
been jailed; Dean Zion and Dr.
Bennett were among those who
made sure that the Brandeis
contingent returned to their
homes.

On Sunday, a massive pro-
test march and demonstration
brought, according to police
estimates 25.000 people to Bos-
ton Common. Demonstrations
in sympathy with the plight of
the Selma Negroes, and pro-
testing Federal inaction, also
took place in New York, Chi-
cago and Washington.

offset as you meet other acad-
emicians who could not pos-
sibly know anything about
Brandeis more knowledgeable
about the school than you
dreamed possible. The answer
is simple. After a while, every-
body knows everybody else in
the tight little world of depart-
ments, parties, and social rela-
tionshipe. Academicians, being
both educated and oral, talk
voluminously and vomitously
and everything comes out, in-
cluding tell-tale linen. An
University's reputation, much
like a woman's, is often deter-
mined in such intimate social
gatherings. To paraphrase a
gadfly of the Academy, **It is
my considered opinion that an
University's reputation is de-
termined by how the power
structure treats its faculty and
students."

Lerman Leads Grapplers

Editor's Note: This is a reprint of a column by Bxid Collins in the Boston Globe,
Sunday, Feb. 28.

Bob Lerman is from another world of half-nelsons in which most people aren*t
even half-interested. He belongs to the secret society called college wrestling, and to-
day he grunts his farewell on the home pad. He leaves as the best wrestler Brandeis
University ever had, the most succesful athlete on campus, a kid who does not wear
his Phi Beta Kappa key because on him it would look like a golden albatross.

He is such a little man on campus that even in the matside seats you need
binoculars to see him in all his grasping glory, treating a rival like a piece of modeling
clay. His fame is not even school-wide, for at Brandeis intellectualism gets the decision

over athleticism. Yet there arej,^

those who care enough to show
up at the wrestling matches.
There will be maybe a hundred

of them at Shapiro Gym this
afternoon at 2:30 when 120-
pounder Lerman opens the sea-
son-closer against Yeshiva.

"You know, some of your
friends from the dorm come,
and some of the friends of the
other wrestlers, so you're not
there alone," Lerman said. "I
think we can beat Yeshiva,
which would give us a 4-7
record. Not impressive, I know,
but it's the best record we've
ever had at Brandeis." (Ed.
Note; Brandeis and Lerman
both won.)

Like almost every other kid
who grew up in South Bend,
Ind., Lerman wanted to play
football for Notre Dame. He
didn't grow up enough. "I went
out for football my junior year
at James Whitcombe Riley
High, just to see how toiifeh it
was, and I got to play some. I
was 5-3. 120 pounds — prob-
ably," he laughs, "the smallest
linebacker in the state of In-
diana if not anywhere.

"The next year there were
too many good, big kids coming
up at the position, and I de-
cided to try wrestling. In my
family we played every sport
— I had to play something."

Lerman feels that seven
inches was the difTerence be-
tween a fair basketball player
and a good wrestler. "If I'd
been even 5' 10" I think I
could have been mediocre in
basketball and made the team.
That's THE game in Indiana,
you know. And I wasn't too bad
. . . but 5' 3"? So it was wres-
tling for me where I could lind
somebody my size.

"I'm still a Notre Dame fan.
still listen to the football games,
but when it came to college I
wanted to get away from home.
And I wanted a small school
that would be good academical-
ly and where I'd have a chance
to play something, baseball or
wrestle. Brandeis was perfect."

Although his tour-way var-
sity record is 40 victories and
eight defeats, Lerman has made

his loudest mark in Waltham
with his holds on the tenor
saxophone. He leads a rock 'n
roll orchestra of four pieces
called Four Q's, who honk and
wang it up for learned fruging
and jerking. His heart is with
John Coltrane and Sonny Stitt:
"My taste is for jazz. Maybe it
sounds old generation that I
don't care for rock 'n roll, but
it's easier to make a buck this
way, so I play rock 'n roll."

Lerman is the second Phi
Beta Kappa in his family. An
older brother, Jerry, swung for
the key at the University of
Chicago. "I'm glad to get it,"
Bob said, "but with two of us
doing so well we're making it
pretty tough on my five broth-
ers and one sister who haven't
gotten to college yet. It's a
tough precedent for them."

The grades and the key aren't
enough. Lerman. an economics
major, is doing an honors paper
called "The Impact of Automa-
tion on Labor Skill Require-
ments." There will be no auto-
mation for Bob Lerman today,
though. He will be down on his
hands and knees trying to

shove another guy's face
through the floor. (Ed. Note:
Lerman received a Woodrow
Wilson Fellowship last week).

Bites, Grads Undefeated

»

In Intramural Action

By RIC USLANER

The Bites and the Grads remain the only undefeated
teams as the intramural basketball season enters its last
three weeks. The Grads lead the B North League with a
7-0 record, while the Bites are on top of the B South
League with an identical mark. The Good Guys, though
no longer undefeated, continue to hold their own in the A
League with an 8-2 record.

Bob Lerman, Brandeis student-
athlete, leads grapplers.

Spring Sports Schedule

Peter Siris has taken over
the scoring percentage leader-
ship since the resignation of the
Faculty's Gene Booth a few
weeks ago. The A N » j a t i o n s
junior averages 15.5 points per
game. Booth was averaging 27
points per contest. Siris is the
league leader in total points
severed witli 139. Bill Rubin of
the A League is second with
135.

Behind the B South League
leader in game average are
Pete Lazes of the Innermost
Parts with 14.8 and Ricky Fisii-
nian of Q.E.M. with 14.2.

In last week s action, the
New Old Lam pocks edged
Hunt's Titans 46-42. Ed Kop-
lowitz of the Lompocks scored
18 points while the Titans'
George Frost hit for 16. The
Titans also lost to the Grads
last week, 21-37. Plagued by
poor foul shooting, the Titans
managed to score only one
point in the lirst quarter.

The Bites cliewcd out a 26-
22 victory over the A Nications
Thursday night after winning a
forfeit against the B Nications.
The Bite..? held league scoring
leader Siris to only 3 points,
but Ken Davis tallied 10 to

pick up the slack. In the
Bites victory over the B Nics,
Athlete of the Week Pete
Weiner was mauled by a team-
mate.

As the league now stands,
there are two undefeated teams
and two teams which have not
broken into the win column,
the "18" Nuts and the G.B.'s.

Brandeis Grants 1965
Creative Arts Awards

Brandeis University presented its Creative Arts
Awards Medals for 1965 to playwright Tennessee Williams,
poet Stanley Kunitz, painter Mark Rothko, and composer
Elliott Carter on Sunday, March 28. A fifth and special
Medal Award was presented, as were four Citation Awards.

Dr. Alfred H. Barr, Jr., director of museum collec-
tions at the Museum of Modern Art, New York, received
the 1965 Special Medal Award.

Three- Way Discussion To
Review Educational Policy

A new thirteen-member faculty-student-administration committee will informally
meet withm the next few weeks to discuss problems related to educational policy and
more general problems dealing with other aspects of university life.

The Administration is represented by Dean of Faculty Leonard Levy, Dean of
Students Kermit Morrissey, and Associate Dean of Faculty Eugene Black. Professors
Stephan Berko and Joseph Berliner, both senior faculty members, professors Allea
Grossman and Stephen Gendzier, both members of the Faculty Educational Policies
Committee, as well as Dean Levy are the faculty representatives. Students involved are
Frank Bloch Council President, Brian Marcus Council Treasurer, and Council members
Allen Zerkin and Bill Kornrich. The two other student representatives are Elliot Evans
chairman of the Student EPC, and Paul Solman Co-Editor-in-Chief of the Justice

Debating Team
To Compete in
National Match

For the first time in Brandeis
history, the Debating Team has
been selected to attend the West
Point National Tournament
which begins April 10. The
Brandeis team members are
Deb by Lewis '65, and Allan
Lichtman '67.

Forty teams were selected
from the entire country, which
is divided into eight regions.
The New York-New England
region accounted for five of
the teams.

Brandeis was chosen to par-
ticipate after attending a re-
gional tournament at St. John's
University, Long Island. The
scores at that time were:

1. MIT. 14-2

2. Brandeis 14-2

3. Dartmouth 12-2

4. U. of Vermont 11-5

5. Harvard 10-6

MIT. won with additional
speaker points.

The topic for the three-day

West Point tournament is "Re-
solved: that the Federal Gov-
ernment should institute a pro-
gram of public work for the
unemployed."

Three Brandeis Students Join
In Montgomerty Demonstration

Several members of the Brandeis community joined the 25,000 people in Mont-
gomery. Alabama last week for the last leg of the much-po.stponed Selma- Montgom-
ery march. They were Dr. Lawrence Fuchs of the American Civilization department
Fran Forman '67, Steve Herman '68, anl Peter Malmgreen '67.

The three students rented a car for the trip South, left at noon on March 23 and
arrived in Montgomery at 7:00 p.m. last Wednesday. From there, they went to the St.

Evans Weighs

New Agenda

For EPC

Elliot Evans. '66. newly ap-
pointed chairman of the Stu-
dent Council Educational Poli-
cies Committee, plans a major
revision of both the organiza-
tion and programs of the com-
mittee. The EPC, designed to
provide an important link be-
tween the faculty and the stu- P'y through the "presence of

about six miles outside of
Montgomery, where the march-
ers had camped. At noon on
Thursday, they marched to the
State Capitol building. There,
the demonstrators, by now
swelled to over 25,000, were
addressed by Dr. Martin Luther
King and other civil rights
leaders. The journey back
North began that same evening.
According to Miss Forman,
the march gave encouragement
to the Negroes of Alabama sim-

thousands of strangers in their
community for them." She
added, "When the Negroes are

dents, has been largely inactive
this year.

As part of the reorganization,
Evans has appointed three as-
sistant chairmen. In addition. | finally given the vote, they'll

Bill Kornrich '67 as its advi- I ,ng to Steve Herman, the march

structure of the old Alabama

Frank Bloch, '66. will be to
"establish a closer link between
the Colncil and the Commit-
tee."

Two of the assistant chair-
men. Jon Malino, '66 and Dick
Temkin, also '66, will take
charge of a subcommittee which
will investigate educational
policies in general. They will
work on the broad school-wide
issues and draw up specific pro-
posals.

One of the major ideas to be
considered by this subcommit-
tee will be revision of the aca-
demic calendar. Evans claimed
that some progress in this area
was "reasonably certain before
next year." While he discounted
the possibility of a regular tri-
mester system,, he did mention
several variations. Under one of
these, the Dartmouth system, 3
semesters would be held during
the regular school year. The
course load would be dropped
to three per semester. Another
possibility would be to main-
tain two semesters but start
school right after Labor Day
and hold mid-year finals be-
fore winter recess. Winter re-
cess would thus coincide with
intersession and, as a result,
spring finals could be com-
pleted by the beginning of

society".

Both Miss Forman and Mr.
Herman went because, in tlieir
words, they felt that they "had
to". Miss Forman added, "I
felt that nothmg was being
done here. When I read about
what was happening, I felt
sick". The marchers had to do
without sleep or much food, it
was revealed, but Mr. Herman
sacid, "Compared to what the
Negro has to go through 24
hours a day, that didn't matter
much".

The demonstrators had been
warned by civil rights leaders
to stay close to the body of the
demonstration in Montgomery,
but none of the students saw a
case of physical violence. Hos-
tility instead took the form of
"cursing and spitting". Mr.
Herman found the atmosphere
to be like that of "a completely
different country". Both, need-
less to say, were glad that the
Federal Government had fur-
nished protection for the march-
ers. Mr. Herman concluded,
"The realization that the Fed-
eral government is l>ehind the

In a Student Council meet-
ing held last Wednesday night.
President Frank Bloch read a
letter of resignation from Den-
nis Brunn '66, and announced
the method of collection of the
Student Activities Fee in 1965-
66.

Brunn stated in his letter
that his duties as an officer of
NSM prevented him from de-
voting a sufficient amount of
lime to Council affairs He said
he had hoped to be able to
fulfill both jobs well, but found
that he could not, and therefore
resigned from Council. A new
election for representative will
be held with the cla.ss elections.

Two weeks ago Council voted
to recommend to the adminis-
tration that it collect the SAF
next year, but not restrict its
distribution, which will remain
Co unci's responsibility The
administration would re-
tain the right to audit Coun-
cil's books. Bloch plans to meet
with Dean Morrissey and Pres-
ident Sachar to sign the agree-
ment soon.

In other business, Council
voted to allocate $250 to the
Judges' Advocate for a pro-
gram for Henry Cabot Lodge to
be held tomorrow night, $27.50
to the Campus ADA for trans-
portation and officers' dues, and
money left over during the
summer, after all bills have
l>een paid, to the SCLC sum-
mer project. Each member of
Council was appointed to .serve
as advisor to one of Council's
committees and to a block of
clubs. Brian Marcus announced
that any club planning to spend
$25 after April 15 must have
the expenditure approved by
him.

Smith Arrested
During CNVA
Sikorsky Sit-in

Jane Smith '66 and six other
representatives of the Commit-
tee for Non-Violent Action at-
tempted a sit-in at the entrance
of the Sikorsky Aircraft plant
in Stratford, Connecticut, last
Friday aftrcnoon. They were
arrested by the local |K>lice,
who had previously been noti-
fied of the demonstration, on
charges of trespassing. The
scvvn demonstrators were re-
leased within two hours, with-
out sentence being passed.

Miss Smith said that the sit-
in had had "symbolic value",
since "Sikorsky helicopters are
important in the war in Viet-
nam". Picketing of the Sikor-
sky plant began at 3 PM on
Thursday afternoon, and con-
tinued throughout Thursday
night. At 1 PM on Friday the
seven pickets invaded Sikorsky
property, and sat in the road
used by trucks delivering ma-
terials. When arrested, the pic-
kets went limp, according to
non-violent tradition, and were
carried l)y police to a waiting
bus. Mi.ss Smith has no com-
plaint about her treatment by
the police; she termed them
"very nice". Miss Smith staled
that the CNVA plans similar
demonstrations in the future.

Three-Way Discussion

"Fantaslick" Review

Wit is a very special form of humor. At its
best and most precise it is brilliant, but if used
carelessly and irrelevantly, it becomes a far
lower form than the proverbial pun.

If, for example, in parodying a line from Joel
Doerfler's review of "The Fanti^sticks" in last
week's Justice, I were to say "Mr. Doerfler's re-
view was both witty and long, but then, if you
had a nose as long as Mr. Doerfier's, you
couldn't help being witty anyway," you could
justifiably accuse me of maliciousness, despite
an early impulse to call me witty.

Unfortunately, Joel himself, in the course of
his review, displays a most unfortunate pen-
chant for being only "half a wit." This htst
phrase is not uscMi sarcastically, for it implies
that his humor, in that its frame of reference is
often irrelevant or incorrect, is no lunger witty
but in fact, a bit silly.

More important is the fact that, for the sake
of such "wit" an accurate description of the
play itself is frequently lost. At the outset, let

The new committee is well equipped to handle the need for relevant conclusion: the choice of such an ob-
better student-faculty relations. It is unfortunate that at a small
school like Brandeis the faculty and students arc so isolated
Irom each other. Instructive personal relationships outside the
classroom mu^ be encouragc^d. By working together in depart-

dents can begin to establish closer relationships with their
professors.

The facuUy-student-administration meeting should not limit performed well, provide for a highly entertain-

Now, as for the axiom itself, one would have
hoped for some kind of definition of terms. Is
Gilbert and Sullivan, for example, "daring and
imaginative?" How about "Mother Courage?"
A production of Brecht's play certainly doesn't
fall into the "daring" category outlined by the
reviewer. How about "The Lonesome Train,'

vio-usly popular play "reflects a failure of
courage on the part of the B.S P. Board."

The point is that certain plays lend them-
selves to pure enjoyment, but this is decidedly
as unimportant a reason not to perform it as
was the first reason concerning frequency of
production. Perhaps the "same reason" that Mr.
Doerfler is groping for as to why B.S. P. chose
"The Fantasticks" is precisely that it does, if

of this.

Joel's third paragraph is the typkal flight of
Doerfleriana we were all so eagerly awaiting
through the first part of his review. "Nothing
beats 'charm' these days," says Joel. "It makes
you feel all warm and good inside" Now
there's a bit of meaningless wit. "Of course "
he continues, "it (is he referring to the play or
to the word "charm"?) is a little bit saccha-
rine."

Now, if Mr Doerfler is referring to charm,

Last of The Justice

Dear Sirs:

This last i.ssuc of the Justice Anally did it
For almost three years now, I've been reading
the paper every Tuesday night during dinner
and after ripping up four copies of the last
edition, I decided that it might be a little more
constructive to write directly to the newspaper
to express my extreme dissatisfaction. My an-
noyance isn't directed solely at this issue, but at
virtually every Justice that I have ever read
and thrown away. This past issue, however
seemed to epitomize certain factors which have
been particularly irritating throughout the past
few years. Although I admit to most symptomi
of the "apathy syndrome," I felt that this issue
merited special consideration, and the lact
that the editors are reasonably open-minded
prompted me to write this letter in the iiope
that they might take some critici.sm (which is
meant to be constructive ) to heart.

A Criticjue

But first back to the issue of March 16. If it
were not for the fact that I had already read
the article on Bob Lerman in Sunday's Globe,
1 really might have enjoyed the sports /.ul/-
page. Working backwards through the paper
(which is supposedly the best way to read it),
the next article which caught my attention v;as
the analysis of the Fantasticks. The second lialf
of Doerfler's article was fairly good, and I aj.'ree
with a great deal of it myself. However, there
are certain points of his argument in the first
half of the article which I fail to see. Exactly
who is to decide whether a play folded because
it was terrible or because it was merely "mis-
understood" by the audience (or perhaps Mr.
Doerfler would argue that it should be pre-
sented regardless of which reason ) . I realize
that it isn't fair to criticize Doerfler's right to
write anything he believes ( academic freedom,
etc.), but it seems a shame that the Justicv must
present an opinion which differs so greatly with
that of the many hundreds who enjoyed seeng
a light-hearted production — for a change 1 m
not advocating that all critical opinions should
be unpublished, but why is it that such a skepti-
cal attitude is continually maintained concern-
ing anything from student productions to social
events. I for one was glad the Fantusticka was
presented, and as I expected no Broadway pro-
duction (excuse me — off Broadway), I enjoyed
the show immensely (but that's ju.st for the
record). The next article of interest is the
weekly installment known as "Pig's Winps."
For those who were able to get past the tirst
paraprarh. it might anper>r that the HvfKxi on-
driack is a little sicker than he might imr.vine.
It's a pity that the newspaper's philosophical
humor (I'm told that that's what the column is)
isn't a bit more understandable and directed to
a single point.

Finally we turn to the editorial. Once again,
the newspaper is permitted to present its own
opinion, but once again, why does it continu.illy
present an opinion which is contrary to that of
the majority of students (as shown in polls)
and always harp on the idea of the "hypocrisy
that has at times characterized administration
policies in student affairs," when it must realize
that not everyone hates the administration or
wishes that President Sachar's picture were
back in the library so that it could be defaced
again? Oftentimes the editorials are realistic
and constructive (such as the one concerning
campus security); all too often, they are highly
idealistic, possibly irrelevant, and extremely
unrepresentative of the ©pinions of a gieat
many students.

Problems and Solnticns

Now that I have vented all my anger and
inner tensions, the inevitable question arises as
to the solution of some of these problems (which
many of you obviously might not consider prob-
lems). Fire the editors? That might be an
answer, were it not for the fact that no one else
would take this extremely difficult and often
unrewarding job. Write articles of different
content, varying opinion, and diverse style, and
perhaps change the basic format of the paper a

but the totally cynical sensitivitv of our witty

Doerfleriana reached a below sea-level

Wit for its own sake has very little value,

one sometimes wishes that he would not always
make this his defining characteristic.

At any rate, if the B S.P. ever adapts a Joel

To the Editor:

We have a suggestion for improving the ef-
fectiveness of the Dean's List procedures It
seems reasonable to assume that the names of
the students on "Dean's List" are publishc'd m
The Gazette in order to provide some basis
for individual comparison by which students
may verify their own worth.

Unfortunately, there are so many students
reaching the magic circle nowadays that in-
clusion loses some significance. We suggest
therefore, that there be a greater differenti-
ation made between students, in these ways.

1) Redefine "Dean's List", so that there exists
Dean's List I, Dean's List II, Dean's List 111,
and Dean's Ust IV. In this way, students with
3.0 averages will be differentiated in the pub-
lic view from students with 3.2 averages, etc.

2) Alongside the name of every student on
any one of the four lists, include the names of
the courses taken during the past semester.

In addition, the grades for each course could
be included alongside, but that might be going
a little too far.

3) List the names of the students on each list
not in alphabetical order, but in the order of
tneir grade point averages.

Dr. Herbert Marcuse Warns Against

U.S. Surrender of Freedom to LBJ

By PETER HIRSHFIELD

Dr. Herbert Marcuse. Bran-
deis professor of Politics and
Philosophy, was one of the
speakers at a rally on the Bos-
ton Common Saturday after-
noon, called to protest United
States' involvement in the war
in Vietnam. The rally was
sponsored by several Boston
adult and student peace organ-
izations, including the Bran-
deis Peace Group. The speech-
es, delivered from Packman
BanoUtand in the Common,
were preceded by two marches,
one leaving the Cambridge
Commons near Harvard Square,
and the other beginning at the
Prudential Center. They con-
verged shortly before reaching
the Common and swelled to
about 500 at the Bandstand.
Germany 1933 — America 1965?

Dr. Marcuse viewed the war
in Vietnam as violating all the
commandments of internation-
al la Mr, especially since it is a
war not in defense of our own
country but of a faraway land,
and one in which we are
slaughtering thousands of help-
less and miserable people in
the name of the American way
of life. He drew the analogy
between the people of Nazi
Germany and the American
people of today. The German
people surrendered their free-
dom to Hitler and the Nazis,
resulting in the Second World
War. Those in Germany who
protested the actions of the
Nazi Government were labeled
"Communi.st" or "traitor." To-
day we have surrendered our

freedom to President Johnson
and Dr. Marcuse fears the pres-
ent course of events may lead
us into another war. The war
in Vietnam may be won, but
the crucial question is tX what
price. Dr. Marcuse sees the
task of policing a huge hostile
population as the ''best** pos-
sible result of eontinning the
war, and a nuclear war as the
**negative" consequence.

The only alternative to con-
tinuing or escalating the war
in Vietnam, is a negotiated
peace settlement. Dr. Marcuse
rejects the argument that the
United States must escalate the
war to negotiate from a posi-
tion of strength. We are, after
all, the most powerful nation in
the world today, and we can
well afford to initiate negotia-
tions in Vietnam which may
save humanity from nuclear
devastation, even if in so doing
we suffer a slight loss of pres-
tige. Dr. Marcuse prayed that
the United States would not
fail to fulfill the promises in
the name of which our country
was founded.

Hierachy of Values?

Also addressing the rally was
Noel Day. He stressed that the
present concern for civil rights
in the United States should ex-
tend beyond our borders to peo-
ple throughout the world, in-
cluding the people of Vietnam.
Describing the "War on Pov-
erty" as a "popgun war," he
compared the $76 billion annual
expenditure for defense with
the $10 billion allotted to the
"War on Poverty" over the
course of the next three years.

These figures, he claimed, point-
ed to the true priorities of the
Government. As long as we
continue to spend billions of
dollars annually on foreign mil-
itary assistance, we will con-
tinue to suffer the poverty of
our "affluent society" at home.
A peace where man's life is
fruitful and rich should be our
goal. Freedom will not come
about when we have killed all
those who disagree with us, he
urged, but only when we re-
spect our fellow men.

Dr. Howard Zinn, associate
professor of Government at
Boston University, pointed out
that the silence of the Amer-
ican people with respect to
United States' policy in Viet-
nam has served as the tacit con-
sent of the body politic to the
actions of our government
there. We should, he said, be-
gin to withdraw this consent by
making our voice of protest
heard. He said that most Amer-
icans go along with present
government policy not because
they understand it, but rather
becau.se it is the habit in the
United States for the people to
support whatever foreign pol-
icy oar government feels is
necessary at the given moment.

He was critical of our Gov-
ernment's defense of the mur-
ders of both guerrilla and civil-
ian populations in Vietnam in
the name of preserving and ex-
tending the American way of
life. He predicted a future in
which there will be all kinds of
governments and societies, a
world which will not be a du-
plication of either tho United
States or the Soviet Union, but

a collage of Communist, So-
cialist- and Capitalist systems.
In conclusion he said that all
peoples in the world today are
striving for freedom and jus-
tice, neither of which can be
secured through war, but must
be sought in peace.

March on Washington

Those of us who feel that the
war in Vietnam is either wrong
or too dangerous should, as Dr.
Zinn urged, make our voice
heard. The best ways of doing
this are by writing to our Con-
gressmen and telling them that
we feel we should and indeed
must end the war in Vietnam
now. We cannot wait to nego-
tiate from a position of
strength, for globally speaking,
we are already in such a posi-
tion. We cannot regard our ac-
tions in Vietnam as defending
the freedom of the Vietname.se
people, for this has certainly
not been the case. We cannot
say that the Vietnamese people
want us to defend them again.st
Communism, for at best they
are apathetic to ideological
conflicts and at worst in favor
of the Viet Cong What we can
say to our Congressmen and to
President Johnson is that they
must negotiate a settlement of
the war in Vietnam and help
the Vietnamese people, in
peace, to raise themselves from
the depths of their present pov-
erty and disgrace. On April 17
there will be a march on Wash-
ington to "End the War in
Vietnam." If you feel strongly
about Vietnam, please come.
Together, perhaps our voices
will be heard.

Part One

SSB Survives Precarious Past

id Hamburger

The following is the first of
a two part article dealing with
the Student Service Bureau.
This week's article.

Two years ago Peter Siris
made a campaign pledge dur-
ing Student Council elections
to organize, in his words, "a
Bureau dedicated to service."
This pledge was later dropped,
but then the Administration
stepped in and asked Siris to
head a service bureau. Plans
were formulated with the co-
operation of the Administra-
tion and Siris whereby a serv-
ice bureau was to provide
transportation and theater
ticket services. Here was whore
the flaw stemmed from. There
was no clear definition of juris-
diction over the SSB except
for a vague tie with the Ad-
ministration. Although Admin-
istration approval is not spe-
cifically required for SSB busi-
ness, Siris has presented pro-
posals of SSB activity to tliem

for advice and support.

This lack of a chain of re-
sponsibility resulted in the fi-
nancial instability of the
Bureau. Siris stated, "I ap-
proached the Student Council
and asked that the Bureau be
declared completely independ-
ent of the Council in the hopes
that the question of who has
jurisdiction over SSB would
be answered. I also asked them
to audit the few records that
SSB had." The net results of
these requests was naught.
Council apparently was unin-
terested or unsure whether it
had the right to declare SSB
independent. Consequently, the
original records were unaudited
and formal records of business
were not kept. New Council
Treasurer Brian Marcus, how-
ever, is planning an audit after
the rock 'n roll concert of
April 1%.

Without formal records, all
business of the SSB was car-

ried on informally. This "infor-
mality" plus the cancellin;? of
some charter flights and the
failure of several theater
parties left the SSB in debt for
$45, discounting back salaries
owed, at the beginning of last
summer.

When this financial trouble
was foreseen, Siris discontin-
ued the salary of the four peo-
ple working for SSB at the
rate of $1.25 per hour. He did
not take a salary during the
first year of operation

The apparent success of the
Student Book Exchange was
marred by the robbery of $200
worth of money and books
"This resulted in a $100 lo.ss."

Siris realized that if the SSB
was to survive, "Money had to
l>e made on the Thanksgiving
and Christmas transportation
ventures." Even with this in
mind, the Bureau only took a
7% mark-up on flights and
buses as compared with a 10%

mark-up taken by comparative
Bureaus at MIT and Harvard.
At Christmas the SSB found
itself in the black by $200.

Thelonius Monk was paid
$1000 for his appearance. SSB,
however, lost about $150 due
to what Siris called, "confusion
with ticket numbering and
money collection."

Siris describes tho problems
of running the SSB for these
two years as one of "strategy
vs. structure." The running of
the Bureau was "very flexible,
which is admittedly bad. but
when you are pressured to get
things done you sacrifice an in-
efficient structure to the neces-
sity of success."

Siris in summation noted
that: (1) the Bureau was made
up of personalities instead of
units of production and (2)
the structure of the Bureau
may have been inefficient but
that is no reason to discard it
completely."

Negro Parents to Bring Grievances to Court;
Springfield Precedent Spurs Legal Attempt

By JEFF SCHNITZER

Parents of Negro children in
Roxbury will soon bring suit
against the Boston School Com-
mittee to try to force it to cor-
rect what the NAACP. their
legal counsel, calls "racial im-
balance." Although this proj-
ect has been planned for almost
two years, it has recently gained
momentum because of a court
decision in Springfield, which
ruled that the School Commit-
tee there had a responsibility
to try to alleviate conditions of
"de facto segregation." Project
leaders cite the July 1964 re-
piort of the Massachusetts State
Board of Education's Advisory
(Committee on Racial Imbalance
and Education, which stated
that 36% of the non-white .stu-
dents in Boston attend high
schools or junior high schools
that are over 91% non-white.
Fully one-half of all non-white

students attend schools that are
over 81% non-white. Of 22
schools in the state that are
over 90% non- white, 21 are in
Boston.

The Boston School Commit-
tee, though it remains the only
school committee in any major
city in the United States to re-
fuse to admit that it has a "de
facto segregation" problem, has
taken .steps to alleviate these
conditions. It has .started what
it calls "an open enrollment"
policy. This means that a par-
ent may petition to have his or
her child moved to any .school
in the city that has classroom
space for the child. However,
this has not seemed to work in
practice.

Parents have alleged that
desks have been removed from
predominantly white schools to
block transfers. Moreover, the
list showmg where seats are

available has been consistently
5 to 6 montlis behind date, and
parents have had great diflfi-
culty in getting to see it at all.
This has left the real decision
in the hands of the principals
of the predominantly white
schools, who have been pre-
dominantly opposed to the
transfer of students out of Rox-
bury and Dorchester into their
areas.

The problems of Boston
schools have been wider than
that of "racial imbalance." The
whole Boston school system,
once one of the nation's finest,
has of late been in generally
poor shape. Boston school chil-
dren rank 15 percentiles below
the national average in reading
ability, and pupils in Roxbury
rank up to two years l>ehind
the rest of Boston school chil-
dren.

Perhaps it is syn^ptomatic
that, of 25 major cities, Boston

ranks 2l5rt in teacher pay. It
ranks last of 34 major cities in
the state in pay. Though it has
the highest tax rate in the east-
ern portion of Massachu.setts. it
is last in the percentage of its
tax dollar it devotes to educa-
tion. According to Robert Levy,
who recently wrote a .series
of articles on "T h e Dilem-
ma of Boston Schools " for the
Boston Globe, there is only one
guidance counselor for every
4000 students. Many school
Ixiildings, particularly those in
Roxbury and Dorchester are
very old and in dilapidated con-
dition. Mr. Levy remarks. "The
school building program in
Boston is proceeding with all
the deliberate speed of a
glacier."

Loui.se Day Hicks, Chairman

of the Bo.ston School C'ommit-

tee, has said, "We've given the

Negroes all they w.mt." Mrs.

Education requirements and of
examination procedures.

Ttie third assistant chairman,
Leo Cohen, '67, will supervise
the work of educational poli-
cies committees within the in-
dividual departments. This
plan, accordini; to Evans, will
eliminate a lot of red tap>e, and
enable the EPC to take quicker
and more effective action on
proi)le<ms related to specific de-
partments or fields of concen-
tration. These department com-
mittees will work on such sub-
jects as the requirements for
concentration, improvements in

the faculty advisor program,
and improvements and changes
in specific courses. He envi-
sioned these department com-
mittees aui a "permanent decen-
traliEed channel for student
ideas whicti could provide a
direct means of obtaining ac-
tion.**

Evans stressed the need for
a large number of interested
students to take part in the
work of the EPC and urged all
such students to attend the
meeting of the cooMnittee to be
held on Thursday, April 1 at
7:30 p.m. in North A-B lounge.

people over 65 who, if retired,
have very little income and
jret have high medical expenses.
It is these people who need as-
sistance, a fact which most peo-
ple seem to agree upon. The
debate comes not over whether
to help the elderly, but how to
do it.

Since the AMA believes that
money should not be wasted on
those who do not need help, the
first job, in its estimation, is to
establish who among the elder-
ly need assistance. Of the 18.25
n\illion Americans over 65
years of ago, 10.6 million, or
62%, have some form of pri-
vate health insurance. Thus,
says Annis, it is the other 38%
who must be taken care of. This
group can l>e broken up into
two major categories. 2.2 mil-
lion of them have no income at
all. These people require com-
plete medical coverage and any
plan would presumably cover
them. Under the Kerr-Mills
plan, for example, the federal
government gives $180 to the
states for each of these people
per year on a matching basis.
Since only one out of every ten
people over 65 will have a seri-
ous illness or accident each
jrear, those who are sick will
get a great deal more than the
$160 from the government plus
the money provided by the in-
dividual states.

There are, however, several
million senior citizens who
have sufficient income to pro-
vide for their nece.ssities and
for minor medical expenses*
but who need help in cowering
large medical bills. The Kerr-
Mills program, says Annis, at-
tempts to cover these people by
providing money to the states
on a matching basis. This pro-
gram is now operating in forty
states arnl four territories. Ob-
viously, the plan is far from
perfect, and many people are
not getting adequate coverage.
Dr. Annis blames many of the
failings of the Kerr-Mills plan
on the ignorance of patients,
doctors, and state legislators,
who too often do not know ck-
actly what kind of help is
available, and thus are not tak-
ing advantage of it. The Hur-
long-Curtis bill is designed to
iron out this and other prob-
lems. Under this plan, every
individual would file a finan-
cial i^temenl every year. Peo-
ple over 65 with an income of
under $3,000 would have all
medical expenses paid for.
Those with incomes between
$3,000-$7.500 would be pro-

vided for in part by Kerr-Mills
and in part by themselves,
while those with an income
over $7,500 would pay all ex-
penses for themselves.

Ideally, says Annis, the gov-
ernment should cover all per-
sons who need financial assist-
ance in covering medical ex-
penses, regardless of age. But
the government's Medicare plan
does not intend to do this, and
the implication here is that the
AMA is in principle more pro-
gressive in this field, or at least
more concerned with giving
help to those who need it than
is the John.son administration.
Annis reinforces this implica-
tion by asserting that the King-
Anderson bill would not pro-
vide as complete coverage in
certain areas as would an im-
proved Kerr-Mills plan. For
example. Medicare would not
cover the cost of private nurs-
ing homes whereas the Kerr-
Mills could be used for this pur-
pose. It seems that the House
Ways and Means Committee
has accepted the AMA's view
on this particular issue, for it
has added various plans sup-
ported by the AMA to the gov-
ernment's Medicare program in
order to provide more exten-
sive medical coverage for the
elderly.

Throughout the lecture. Dr.
Annis seemed highly conscious
of the nature of his audience,
and tried to present the AMA

bit (more pictures, more hu-
mor, descriptive previews of
upcoming campus events)? This
too might be an answer, were
it not for the fact there are ex-
tremely few people who show
enough interest to write for the
Jusiice, and as such, the editors
can only be expected to print
what is submitted to them. I
also realize tliat letters like this
one don't solve any problems;
they only raise new ones. How-
erer, I woudT»*t ha¥« written
this letter if I felt that I was
the only one who didn*t enjoy
the paper. I've spoken to my
friends and even to the editors
about this problem, and many
of them agree with nae (the
editors only to a very limited
degree, which might be called
"journalistic understanding" ) .
Obviously the solution isn't an
easy one, but the only starting
point to improve the paper is
to sit down and write for it.
Admittedly, the "apathy syn-
drome'^ may get the better of
many competent writers, but if
some people realized that a
little extra effort on their part
might mean a little aded en-
joyment to many students, then
the Justice might gain slightly
wider appeal than it presently
has. The editors feel that the
paper should be directed to the
people and the ideas that they
represent, and as long as no
one besides the present staff is
willing to write articles (the
possibilities of which range
from a conservative view of
campus politics to the mechan-

position in practical, rather
than ideological, terms. Basic-
ally, he attempted to show that
the Kerr-Mills program is, or
can be made adequate, and that
the King-Anderson program
would be highly inadequate.
The only point of principle
raised by Annis was that only
those who need help should be
covered and that the rest
should be left to provide for
themselves. There was no
mention of creeping socialism
or the destruction of the doc-
tor-patient relationship, themes
which generally permeate AMA
literature.

ics of a panty raid^, then I can-
not help but sympathize with
ttiem as much as I might dis-
agree. I've spoken to one of the
Editors-in-Chief many t i m e s«
and he is concerned about what
he admits to be a problem, and
yet is there is no material from
divergent branches of the s^-
dent body aiMl no expressed
desire for change^ then there
can be no improvement of the
newspaper. I hope I haven*t
been completely misunder-
Bitood, for I think the Justioe
has many fine points* and I ad-
mic^e the efforts of all those
who work so hard to put out
each issue. And yet I sttil don't
believe the university news-
paper should represent what is
definitely not a majority phi-
losophy and personality of the
Brandeis campus; this has been
the case for many years, and
the only way that it can now
change is if people who are
aware of this problem and who
are concerned with their school
newspaper do a little more than
just complain and Uirow the
paper away.

Report, "does not do justice to
Dallas' climate of hate."

Dr. Lerner then turned to a
brief evaluation of t h e 1964
Republican convention and
campaign. He analyzed Gold-
water's candidacy as ""a coali-
tion of several groups"; racists, -
anti-intellectuals, anti-Eastern-
ers. Christian front groups, and
anti-Conamunist action groups,
among others. Also included
were the conservative intellect-
uals, such as Buckley and Kurk
("They don't really belong m
the far-out right." said Lerner.)
If Gold water had won the elec-
tion, Lerner argued, these mew
would have been the first vic-
tims of the victorious right-
wing. The fact tkat Goldwater
did lose represetited "the com-
plete flop" of the myth that
conservative thought was iw»-
dergoing a renaissanee.

One important reason that
Goldwater lost, said Dr. Lerner,
was that in calling for the
abandonment of "me-tooism
he was advocating a "break
with consensus," Lerner de-
fined consensus as the sense of
national unity which transcends
all religious and political la^
bels. Consensus, he stated is
something to which he himseK
is "deeply, ultimately eom-
mitted." Viewing the absence
of consensus with which con-
tinental Europe has always been
plagued and which was cb-
maxed by the rise of Nazism in
our own time, Lerner declared
that anyone who advocates a
break with consensus "noust
convince me that it is worth it
lo have a history saturated with
blood." . .,

The final topic was the ciTil
rights movement, which the
lecturer des<ribed as "a pheno-
menon we have »ot see* k«-
foFC." Dr. Lermcr disagreed
with PrcsidcMt Joknsoa's evalu^
ation of Selma as "an American
tragedy**. Sehna, said Lcr«cr,
••is AmericaA pathos, not traf-
•dy". •nrhe pathetic is »»»■;

he continued, kccaosc the «•»-
rent wave of the civil rights

ing the ranks of Americans,

ness and stupidity of men li»c
Wallace" whose acts of terror
and brutality have succeeded
in awakening many who ^"«
heretofore unconcerned.

With this analysis. Dr. Ler-
ner closed his lecture and
opened the floor to questions.
In response to a student's re-
quest for his opinion of student
demonstrations in the civ 1 1
rights movement, he an«werert
that he personally would m)t
advocate civil disobedience^ He
did, however, praise student
concern and peaceful partici-
pation in the civil rights strug-
gle, saying that the movement
••reaches very deep into the
student's sense ©i what i« tni-
fortant." Dr. Lerner admitted,
in answer to another query,
that in a system such as ours,
it is often true that "democracy
requires a crisis before it will
act." This situation will change,
ke emphasised, with the new
college generation, which soon
•*will claim the future."

The road to managenent is a two-way street at
Ford Motor Company. On one side of the street,
the college graduate brings to us his talents,
abilities and ambitions. Then it is up to us to
ensure that he realizes his full potential.

There are several methods we use in guiding his
devdopment. One method is periodic evaluations.
These reviews measure performance and — more
importantly— chart the best route for an employe
to pursue in developing bis capabilities. These
performance reviews are prepared at least once
a year by the employe's immediate supervisor,
leviewed by higher management and diecuaeed with the employe.
In addition, there are frequent reviews and analyses of individual perform-
ance in which promotions, salary increases and developmental moves are
planned. These programs are so important that each division and staff has a
special section responsible for administering them. One of the people who
helps oversee these programs is Toby Kahr. His experience is also an
example of how a college graduate benefits from these programs.
In 1963, Toby completed our College Graduate Program. Ehiring these
first two years, he gained a depth of experience in Company policies involv-
ing all aspects of employe relations. Currently he supervises the Personnel
Planning and Training Section of our Steel Division. In essence, Toby is
helping to implement the program that led to his own career development.
Programs such as these are intended to make certain that your perform-
ance at Ford Motor Company will be recognized and will determine how
fast you'll move ahead. The development of future managerial material ia
one of our fundamental goaW. See our representative when he visits your
eampua. Something good may develop for you.

On The Grill

In The Spring

Ric Usianer

It happens every spring, but more so this one. Each
March brings enthusiastic baseball hopefuls to the Shapiro
Athletic Center; this year 35 showed up. Baseball Coach
John Hughes called this turnout "the largest since Bran-
deis has had baseball." He added, '*As a result, we have
somebody battling for each in-* — ■

field position."

This is just one of the hope-
ful signs which might put the
baseball Judges over .500, some-
thing no other major Brandeis
team has been able to do this
year. Gene McDonald has re-
turned to the Brandeis pitching
staff, rounding out the big three
of Fred Marden, Larry Lessard,
and McDonald. The hard-hit-
ting hurler didn't play last year
because of a leave of absence.
His return gives the squad
three fourth-year pitchers.

The major contests of the
season will be games against
Harvard, Boston College, and
Boston University. These are
all Greater Boston Baseball
League games. Harvard was the
1964 Ivy League champion,
boasting a 21-2 overall record.
Boston University has just fin-
ished a three-game road trip
from which it emerged unde-
feated. Among the BU wins
was a 3-1 decision over Navy.

The Brandeis team is strong
in fielding and running as well
as in pitching. Coach Hughes
said, "If the fielding is any in-
dication of the boys' ability, it
should make for a very good
season." The addition of fresh-
men makes the squad much
faster. "We expect to run more
this season," Hughes said. He
cited such freshmen as Steve
Coyle, Larry Bates, Al Goroll,
George Frost, and Steve Gil-
bert as the ones most likely to
add to the team's overall speeds

Hitting is a big question
mark and there are outfield
weaknesses which must be cor-
rected. Hughes feels that the
return of McDonald will help
the hitting situation, but he re-
mains cautious on the overall
question of offense.

Weather suited for anything
but baseball has hampered the
team's practice sessions. The
hitting problem has been ag-
gravated by the fact that Bran-
deis does not own a batting
cage. Most other schools do, so
the Judges will start the season
at a disadvantage.

Catching is set with Dave
Gordon behind the plate. He is
the only catcher on the squad,
an enviable position so long as
he is well.

Coach Hughes plans to ro-
tate his pitchers at three inning
stints during the early part of
the season. This is a measure to
prevent sore arms. Marden, ace
of the staff, has suffered sore
arms at the beginning of each
of his three previous seasons —
a situation that Hughes would
very much like to avoid this
year.

Speaking of Marden, the sen-
ior ace from Natick has been
given the look-over by scouts
of the Cincinnati Reds and the
Houston Astros. As early as his
senior year in high school, he
had attracted a scout from the
Boston Red Sox. Hughes said
of him, "He's a five game win-
ner if he doesn't get a sore

»»

arm.

This season's schedule is basi-
cally the same as that of last
year. There is an increase of
one game overall. Last year the
team finished 4-11, but it won
4 out of its last 7 games.

FOOD FOR THOUGHT

"One of the Boston Celtics
starting five (name withheld

deis University basketball

Returning Stars Brighten
1965 Baseball Scene

The Brandeis baseball team, under the new leader-
ship of Coach John Hughes, will open the '65 season
against Stonehill College. Bolstering the team's hojje for
a successful season is the fact that there are eight starters
returning from last year.
Among these are three four-*

year pitching veterans, Capt.
Larry Lassard. Fred Marden.
and Gene McDonald. Also in-
cluded are Bob Plunkett at sec-
ond base, Dave Gordon at
catcher, Jon Berenson at third
base, and Eric Epstein and Mike
Makar in the outfield.

Other returning lettermen
are Paul Wionor, Jc(T Civins,
Steve Altman, and Steve Du-
bro. Rounding out the team are
several freshmen and upper-
classmen out for the first time:
Dave Rand (a former Newton
High player), Richie Hymoflf,
George Frost, Larry Bates,
Alan Goroll. Mike Blumberg,
Steve Coyle. Bill Rubin. Steve
Gilbert, and Manny Goldman.

Many Outfielders

The hottest battles for posi-
tions are at third base between
Berenson, Frost and Jimmy
Boice (one of the team's lead-
ing hitter's last year) and at
shortstop between Rand, Hy-
moff and Bates. There is also
a struggle going on for the out-
field positions.

Coach Hughes feels that "the
team has a good chance to im-
prove last year's 4-11 record
record with at least a .500 sea-
son." He goes on to say "that
although this can be called a
veteran team, in the Greater
Boston League, including Har-
vard, B.C., B.U., Northeastern.
Tufts, MIT, and Brandeis, it's
an uphill struggle all the way.
Improved defense and hitting

in support of the fine pitching
staff will be a vital factor if
the team is to have a good sea-
son."

On Saturday the team will
scrimmage Bridgewater State
Teacher's College, weather per-
mitting.

pean students. In N.Y.C. we ore set-
ting up our own headquarters and
social center. As part of the staff we

FEATURE

The squad opens its spring
season on Tuesday, April 13
against Tufts. The match will
be held, as will all of the Bran-
deis home contests, at the
Spring Valley Country Club.
This will be the only match be-
fore spring vacation.

According to Coach "Foxy"
Flumere, the three golfers with
the greatest potential are Steve
Mora, Barry Zimmerman, and
Shelly Natenberg. Mora, the
captain of the squad, went to
the ECAC golf meet two years
ago. In 1963 he was one of the
five best golfers in New Eng-
land, according to Flumere. The
former Student Council Presi-
dent had an off year in 1964,
but Flumere is confident that
his captain will return to form
this year.

THE WORLD'S SICKEST PAPER

Zimmerman is well known to
Brandeis sports fans for his
outstanding play during the
basketball season. Natenberg is
a promising freshman.

Returning lettermen include
Bob Zweben, Bob Nelson, and
Ellis Landau. Larry Bates, also
a freshman, returns to the golf
squad after playing in the fall.

Coach Flumere appeared
hopeful of a good season, al-
though he conceded that the
loss of Jim Halperin might
prove costly.

The Brandeis women fencers
placed second in the Fourth
Annual New England Women's
Fencing Championship as Susan
Sherkow and Ellen Novack
took two seconds. Radcliffe was
first.

REGISTRAR

HIS HAIR DOWN

By GUNTHIR BOSO

Mr. Charles Duhig didn't have a care in the world as he left home one evening
from his job as Registrar of Brandeis University.

Suddenly he stopped in front of a florist shop — and the world will never be
the same again for p(M)r Duhig.

Within two minutes he was leaving the shop carrying a dozen long-stommed
American Heauly roses. Little did he know that these innocent, sweet scents of spring
were to be the beginning of a long hellish nightmare that was to end in disaster.

He hadn't walked a block when he passed a dress shop. On a strange and un-
controllable impulse he went in and as if in a trance bought two full-length hostess
gowns, a champagne-frosted bouffant wig, a topless bathing suit, and one of Rudi
Gernreich's "no-bra" bras ('Mn nude naturally"). , ^ . , r

And this wasn't yet the end of it. By the time Duhig reached the front door of I

his home he had purchased I ~^~ ~"~

enough feminine cosmetics and I
apparel to make Edward Ever- f
ett Horton look like a chorus
girl from the Jule Box Revue.

Unknown Being;

"It seemed like a good idea
at the time," he told one of our
En • hirers. "I really don't know
what came over me. It was as
if s o m e unknown being had
taken complete control of my
mind and body.

"Oh, I had felt these tend-
encies before, but this is the
first time they ever became
overt.

"It was rather pleasant at
first," he shyly giggled, "sort
of like the feeling I always get
when I toll a student he's failed
a course, but then I began to
feel a gnawing at the pit of my
stomach as if I was doing some
thing terribly wrong."

D u h i g ' s pangs of guilt
turned into an excruciating
pain that soon became unbear-
able. He threw up three times
on his way home.

Wife's Horror

"I didn't know what to think
when my husband walked in
the door." Duhig's wife re-
ported. "He was pale as a ghost
and his eyes were tho.se of a
madiiK4n. He could barely get
out. 'For you!' through his
drooling as he handed me all
those packages. I experienced a
mixture of ecstasy and horror
as I opened the boxes and saw
all those wonderful presents he
had bought for me. When I
asked hitn what ever made hitn
do such a kind and thoughtful
thing, he fell to my feet sob-
bing as he confessed. "I ... I
guess underneath my hard and
grufT exterior. I'm really a
woman ... at heart."

Crucified

The Newman Club conven-

the crucifixion of one of the
conventioneers. The victim,
whose name has been with-
held, was found nailed to a
cross behind Bethlehem Chapel.

Brandeis has Ix'en unable to
press the investigation due to
the strange disappearance of
the corpse Sunday afternoon.
"Something fishy is going on
here." said Sam S<'curity. "but
we'll get to the bottom of it."

The Board of Trustees will

Eats Server Instead

^.,„,MM^wtrMfnrv'<». '' '"f-'Vi'' ''! ■■^'•f ' '.

The menu in Swij? Dining
Hall WHS a bit bizarre last
Friday, for one boy in par-
ticular.

(lordon Geek had been on
a hunger strike for three
weeks protesting the ram-
pant use of **ugly smut" in
this issue of the Emiuirer.
Having finally succeeded in
convincing the editors of the
paper to <lelete an article en-
titled, "Hoy Refused Seconds
On Chicken — Kats Ser-
ver instead", his mouth
watered at the thought of
his first sciuare meal.

Gonlon piled his plate
high with fried chicken, can-
died yams, string beans, and
Angostura bitters. He gob-
bled them down in 2 minutes
flat, but this was not nearly
enough to satisfy his wild
carnivorous apiK'tite. And so
Gordon Geek picked up his
cleanly licked plate, franti-
cally pushed his way to the
front of the food line, ami ^,t:f f ,

demanded another portion of ik,-"f^^^^\

chicken. '^^'''? W^'t!

Mrs. Phyllis Quat, who i.^:^;(/p^/'^
was serving the chicken that ||;)^ v>^^;j
day, retained her comjwsure i^ "<'/'* ?^
even when confronted with p
the hall-mad wild-eyed Geek. ^
**Vm sorry", she said calmly,,
**no seconds on chicken".
What hai)pened next?
As one observer. Miss
Thelma Thorax, reports it:
"Mr. Geek stood di.mbtound-
ed. Suddenly his eyes turned
fiery red, his nose began to
twitch, and saliva gushed
out of his gaping mouth.
"Me Want Kat," he bellowed.
While the other students
stood aghast Geek reache<l
over the counter and lifted
up Mrs. Quat bodily! Before
anyone could say, "Roy Re-
fused Seconds On Chicken-
Eats Server Instead",
Geek had managed to set
civilization back 2,000 years.
Whon he was through all
that remained of Mrs. Quat
was her blood-stained apron.
The Administration took
immediate action and de-
manded that Mr. Geek visit
the Psychological Counseling
Outer at least once a week
from now on.

"He kicked me in the stom-
ach. The rest was sheer tor-
ture."

What Sidney could not admit
to me (because he can barely
admit it to himself) is what
happened next. The way the
police tell it, one man (identi-
fied as Tony "the fiend" Veraz-
zerela, age 34) came up with
a hair-raising idea.

He wanted to put Sidney in
the donut making machine!

"In all my years as a Wal-
tham Townie I had never heard
of such a fiendish plan," said
Michael Callagan, age 20, an
old friend of Verazzerela and
one of those men suspected of
being involved in the bloody
Central Square massacre of last
Fall. "But you know Tony,
chuckled Callagan. "What a
joker!"

As he lies in his hospital bed
today, Sidney Sphincter does
not appreciate the "joke." Doc-
tors fear that his brain has been
permanently damaged. No man
can spend twenty minutes in a
donut machine and emerge un-
scathed physically and emo-
tionally.

"Sometimes he'll appear to
be fine," said one doctor, "and
the next minute he'll be con-
vinced that he's a chocolate
glazed doughnut and that the
whole world wants to eat him!
I'm afraid he is in the advanced
stages of paranoia. Medical sci-
ence can no longer aid him."

At Ford Motor Company, |>erspcctive results from
the neces.sary training, background and further
education a college graduate needs to obtain the
advancement he wants. Perspective, in a i)ainting,
is the illusion of depth. With us there's no illusion.
Perspective at our Company often starts with the
two-year College Graduate Program. While in the
Program, a graduate progresses through a series of
developmental moves. He becomes familiar with
our business. Takes on ever-increasing amounts of
responsibility. And accelerates according to his
own application and ability. We want him to suc-
ceed. Because the greater his success, the greater ours wiU be. One recent
graduate, Carl Marcucci, typifies this success story.

Since joining us in 1960, Carl has gained wide experience in our Quality
Control Office. For example: He put together a coordinated program to test
a new engine . . . served as a liaison between one of our foundries and our
manufacturing plants ... and represented us with vendors who supply our
manufacturing jilants. In addition, through our Emr)loye Continumg Edu-
cation Plan, Carl furthered his academic accomplishments by earning his
Master's Degree. Carl presently is taking a seminar course to qualify as a
registered professional engineer. This added knowledge and the many work
situations he encountered have greatly enlarged Carl's i)erspe(tive. Make
him better able to reach the right decisions in his current job-Section
Supervisor of a Quality Control Department with 52 people under him.
This is not an isolated case. Many college graduates have grown just as
rapidly. If you want a future as big as you'd like it to be, see our representa-
tive when he visits your campus.

Tlic Rational Enquirer is the |
most disgusting piece of filth
and depravity I have ever laid
eyes on. Wlu) but some kind
of pervert could enjoy reading
your lurid, sensational articles
about ax-murders, necrophilia,
incest, disgusting accidents and
all other forms of human
misery and degradation. If it
were up to me I would i)ut
every last member of your
Editorial Board in an enclosed
eardboard box. Then I would
t.tke a stick and bang the box
I for two hours. Then I would
pour kerosene on the box and
set it on fire. And all the time
I W(Kild be laughing.

around the room like a wild
animal. Then he pronounces
incantations over my bed Ever

SDS Sponsors March
To Protest Vietnam War

tt

students for a Democratic Society are sponsoring a
March on Washington" to protest American involvement
in the Vietnamese war. The stated purpose of the march,
scheduled for Saturday, April 17, is to call for an end to
the war.

The day's events will begin with picketing in front of

the White House at 10 a.m. to*

be followed by a march to the , p*^
Sylvan Theatre to hear speeches
by Sen. Ernest Gruening. jour-
nalist I. F. Stone Paul Potter,
President of S.D.S . and others.
Following the speeches the pro-
testors will march down the
Mall to the Capitol Building to
present a petition to Congress.
The petition calls on the United
States to use any one of the
alternatives now available to it
to end the conflict Possible
alternatives are the reconven-
ing of the Geneva Conference,
the, immediate withdrawal of
our troops, and the submission
of the dispute to arbitration in
the United Nations. The petition
is worded so as to include all
points on the correct form of
diplomatic tactics which we
should follow in ending the
war.

Transportation for the March
is being provided from Boston
and New York. Round trip from
Boston will cost approximately
$14 A train leaving from Penn-
sylvania Station in New York
at 7 a.m. Saturday will cost $8.

Also being planned to pro-
test our involvement in the war
is a Michigan-style teach-in. Ex-
pected to run from 7 p.m. to
7 a.m. tomorrow night, the
marathon protest of Boston
area college faculty will be
held at the Lowell Lecture Hall,
Harvard University. Dr. Heinz
Lubasz of the Brandeis History
Department and J K. Galbraith
are among the speakers.

Dean Refuses Guarantee;
Council to Collect SAF

The Student Council voted Wednesday night to continue collecting the Student
Activities Fee on its own. The move came as a result of Dean of Students Kermit Mor-
rissey's refusal to guarantee that Council would be allowed to retain complete inde*
pendence in the use of the fee if the resiwnsibility for its collection were to be returned
to the administration.

Two weeks ago, after taking a campus- wide poll on the issue, Council went on

Prepare for Summer Field Work

Civil rights and welfare groups will emphasize field work in summer projects in-
volving Brandeis students. NSM will work with community groups in Roxbury, SC()I*F
plans to concentrate on voter registration in Virginia, while VISTA, a federal govern-
ment project, will play a part in the war on poverty.

Brandeis NSM has worked in over half a dozen community centers in three years.
They are now concentrated in two areas, The Cooper Community Center (Shawmut
Ave.) and the Roxbury Boys***^

Club (Dudley Street). Only the
first of these centers saw Bran-
deis volunteers last year. Many
other Brandeis NSM members
work in smaller groups scat-
tered all over Roxbury. Ja-
maica Plain and Dorchester.
This summer, Brandeis NSM
will work with the Roxbury
Blue Hill Christian Center AJl
the 11 to 15 Brandeis students
who will work under the Blue
Hill Center will be in (1) a day
camp alternating between a lo-
cation at Blue Hill Ave. and
one at Weston; (2) a play-
ground program at Blue Hill
distinot from the d.iy camp; ( '{)
a tutorial program at Blue Hill.
Brandeis students will also work
for voter registration with the
Boston Action Group.

The students will work
as; business manat-t.-r of the
camps; program directors for
both camps; senior and junior
counselors; playground direc-
tor and workers; dnector of tu-
torial program; atid curriculiun
consultant.

Ano'her Brandeis group do-
ing lunu in welt'are-nv'il ri^iils

southern slate. Brandeis
SCOPE has not yet made a final
decision on wliich county it

considered are Georgia, Vir-

and North Carolina.

After Selma, What?

Selnia is an important turning point in the struKKle
for equal civil rights in the South. The oppression of
JMegroes in the South has gra^lually become a national
problem. Selma is the clarification of that national charac-
ter of the pioblem, and Fedeial lorces in Alabama, fol-
lowed by Federal action against the Ku Klux Klan, are the
national answer.

Brandeis stmlentF took an of others to dcmotralically
important part in the nation- organize in order to demand
wj(k> Selma protests: it is clear changes in their own interests

where we stand in regard to
the oppression, and killing of
Wegroes in the South. The ac-
tions of students from Brandeis
during the next months, and
the presence or absence of ap-
proval from the administration
and tlie student body, will
make clear where we stand
after Selma.

But what does Selma mean
in the North? And where do
we stand here? The situation
in the Harlems of the North is
essentially the same as — or
worse (in unemployment for
example) than — it was 10
years ago. Bayard Rustin point-
ed out. in a reeent issue of
Commentary, that the existence
of etjual civil rights in the
North does not alleviate most
N<"groes' problems, which are
primarily social and economic.
And the riots of unemployed
and exploited, beaten and
angry people in II;irlem, form-
ed by these conditions, still go
unanswered by the Nortii.

Rustin wrote further tiiat the
"movement" must h^ad to poli-
tical organizing of Negroes and
tlieir allies. This political or-
ganizing must be based on the
concrete needs of decent hous-
ing, schools, and employment.
The Negroes and poor whites
must form a powerful pressure
group if there ever are going to
be victories in the North com-
parable to Selma.

Students* Place

There has been much writ-
ten alK)ut the "betraval of the
w'hite liberal." When this label
is justly applied it refers to
those Northern whites who can
only see the injustices of
Southern .society, where op-
pression and exploitation are
legal, but who cannot see the
ever-present de facto social
and txonomic injustices that in-
fuse the lives of Northern
Negroes.

In an earlier article in the
Justice, I tried to emphasize
the necessity for a particular
ally of the Negro, the North-

In terms of the N.S.M. tutorial
and recreational program in
Roxbury, this means that the
long range goal is not simply
to fill in the gaps in a faulty
system, but to help in the unit-
ing of parents to democratically
change their environment —
that is: to get better .sc-liools and
recreational facilities.

Scope of NSM

The decision to concentrate
in the North, and specifically
m a small .section of Roxbury,
is the reason behind the yearly
N S.M. work, and the reason
behind the Brandeis Studtnt
Roxbury Project. It is a long
term attempt in which students
will act as allies of parents and
children in their struggle for
a better deal. There will be no
student "leaders." Students in
the Brandei.*- Student Roxbury
Project will increasingly live
where they work in R«,xbury.
The decision to act politically
in the area in which you live
(as opposed \o the South, for
instance) is based on taetieal
and moral considerations. Tac-
tically it is impossible, to
paraphrase Jesse Gray, the
organizer of large Harlem rent
strikes, to make a revolution
in three months and th(>n go
back to school Organizing for
democratic control of the legal,
.smial, and economic environ-
ment takes time. It has taken
Jes.se Gray 10 years and it will
take him much more. At the
very least, in order to be of
help one must consider long-
term residence. One mu.st be-
come accepted, legitimate, by
fulfilling an admitted and re-
cognized need of the com-
munity. Then one can move on
to larger things.

Rights and Morals

But the argument has a
moral foundation. This moral
aspect is that one should act
where one will experience the
consequences of one's actions.
One s'hould be, in other words,
re.sponsible for one's acts.

roes' struggle as parallel to the
struggle of the poor and imem-
ployed whites. Both these
groups are suffering under the
present conditions. If students
want to promote social change
they must help one of these
groups: the choice of which
group will depend on one's
skills, one's long-term resi-
dence, and, in many cases, one's
race.

Where, now, do Brandeis
students stand in regard to the
situation here in the North? It
does not seem clear where the
majority stands. Tlie Brandeis
Northern Student Movement,
however, is one group that is
committed to student action, in
a political way. in the area in

workers who were just passing
through have thernselves had
to remain and suffer brutal
consequences.

If the Brandeis student bfKly
makes it clear to the public
that it unquestioningly .«7up-
ports all efforts, for a sum-
mer, of students in the South,
it also risks supporting actions
that have no consequences for
their dotrs In more practical
terms, it will be interpretetl by
many as support for the view-
point that the problem is
really only in the South, and
that things are all right up
here. Such a viewpoint may be

Comment

On Civil Disobedience

Jane Smith

I think that an explanation of motives is needed on the action 1 took, April 1st at
the Sikorsky plant. CMvil disol)e(iience, if it is not explained sufficiently, can t^o easily
seem like an irresponsible and defiant act— or at best, a practical joke. It was mt a
practical joke. It was not a thoughtless act on my part. It has taken me many months
to reach an understanding of the concept that if my government is doing somethimr
which horrifies me, I have a right to "noncooperate" with that action, as long as I do

not physically hurt
else in the process.

When I first heard that the
demonstration at Sikorsky was
going to take place, 1 had some
question about whether the re-

Dorm (M»veriiiiH'iit

To the Editors-in-Chief:

This past Wednesday eve-
ning, SBR handed down a deci-
sion of which most of the
student body is unaware. SBR
completely upheld the punitive
restrictions placed upon a stu-
dent who had been convicted
by his dorm council of defac-
ing property and violating pa-
rietals. As an unbiased spec-
tator, I came away from the
proceedings with the following
observations.

The dorm council itself was
split Three men from this
council were prosecuting, while
two others were defending.
Also, because the council had
pro.secuted a student with
whom it closely associated with-
in the dormitory, personality
traits were invariably exposed
Although SBR's decision in-
creased this dorm council's
punitive power, the resulting
hostility drastically diminished
the councils main role as a so-
cial organization (the role de-
fined for me by Dean Zion in
a recent interview). Unfortu-
nately, students had policed
other students, and only dis-
satisfaction, not at the system,
but at other students resulted.
Constructive Criticism

My objection is that most
people still don't realize that
the present dorm council .sys-
tem was imposed upon the stu-
dent body by the administra-
tion at the beginning of the
Fall semester. The complacence
and apathy of the student body
is greatly disturbing, for it is
hard to imagine that Brandeis
students would not question
and challenge any institution
that seriously undermines their

environment. For students to
Kmain indifUrent is to e-penly
shirk all ( nvironmental re-
spond ibility and to tacitly ad-
mit that governing one's en-
vironment is an area left un-
questioned, to be restricted at
will by our paternal adminis-
trators.

As unthinkable as this prop-
osition seems, let me suppose
that most of the student body
does "like" this minor inquisi-
tion-type government. Then, it
seems to me that a more im-
personal organization (more
impersonal, that is. than a dor-
mitory council) would have a
tendency to be more unbiased
and therefore, less s u s -
ceptible to personality differ-
ences. A simple solution could
be to establish a Greater Dor-
mitory Council, whose
board would include an elected
representative from each quad,
each of the four class presi-
dents, and a justice of SBR.
This board would then serve to
take much pressure off the
present dorm councils so that
they could assume their origi-
nal function as a glorified so-
cial committee Also, students
would not indict other students
unless the offenses were worthy
of punishment, as the prosecu-
tors would be compelled to

could not develop, individual
student's responsibility tor his
environment w o u 1 d increase,
and even more important, the
merit of dormitory government
could once and for all be eval-

the existing structure of society fall with a base of six to eight staff of the Blue Hill Christian council with the cdoueration

and government's response to
these conditions both at home
and abroad.

The underlying foundation
of this left-wing movement
seems to be a humanitarian be-
lief that the people with a per-
sonal stake in decisions are be-
ing used to further the inter-
ests of other groups. Thus, the
college student, the Negro, the
Vietnamese peasant are con-
sidered merely pawns in a
game which can only hurt
them. Our attempt here is not
to detail the complaints of this
left-wing opinion or comment
on the validity of the argu-
ments, but rather to briefly
describe and analyze the acti-
vities resulting from this
strong campus feeling.

The clubs hold the movement
together; they represent the
different areas of concern. The
Committee for an Ideal Cam-
pus, as its name describes, is
concerned with student life on
campus. Friends of the Student
Non-violent Coordinating Com-
mittee and the Northern Stu-
dent Movement are involved
with the struggle for Civil
Rights, both South and North.
The Socialist Club, the Peace
Group, and the May 2nd Com-
mittee react mainly to govern-
ment policy in both the nation-

students lead by John Seeley
and Mike Horowitz. It has
quickly ex|»anded to the point
where it has 110 members. The
club has fostered campus re-
action to Berkeley with a Cam-
bridge Commons rally, a peti-
tion to California Governor
Brown signed by 600 students,
and a Brandeis address by
Mario Savio. In addition, C.I.C.
has sponsored lectures and
forums on the "Ideal Campus"
and is establishing the Spinoza
Institute, a supplemental cam-
pus in Cambridge. The organi-
zation was set up because of the
belief that the administration is
ignoring the needs of both stu-
dents and faculty.

SNCC and NSM are affiliated
with national groups concerned
with organizing Negroes to
change the economic and poli-
tical status quo. Friends of
SNCC, headed by Peter Roth-
stein, is concerned primarily
with fund raising and publicity
for SNCC projects in the South.
Many members have already,
or will soon take part in
drives in the South, including
the Mississippi Summer Pro-
ject.

NSM's campu.s chapter, with
70 active members, under the
direction of Dennis Brunn. has
been active in cflucational and

Te.xas Songster Mance Lipscome

Center's summer program.
Both SNCC and NSM have
been sponsors of demonstra-
tions, including those at the
Federal Building in Boston.

The activities of the Socialist
Club, Peace Group, and May
2nd Committee have concen-
trated on two areas — educa-
tion and protest. The Socialist
Club, has about a dozen stu-
dents dedicated to socialist
principles. The club's major ac-
tivities have involved talks by
figures representing a socialist
viewpoint and demonstrations
against Madame Nhu and U.S.
Vietnamese policy

The Peace Group and May
2nd Committee have been con-
cerned almost exclusively with
Vietnam this year. With a total
of about 40 active members in
the two organizations, the
clubs were instrumental in the
forming of the recent campus
rally on Vietnam which over
500 students attended. The pre-
vailing feeling in the groups,
led by Mark Sonnenblick and
Rick Rapfogel respectively, is
that the world powers, includ-
ing the United States, are
harming the prospects for
peace.

However, much leftist think-
ing on campus is not concen-
trated in the clubs. The 500
sympathetic participants at the
Vietnam rally far exceed the
total membership of the six
organizations. Many of the
pickets at the Federal Build-
ing do not belong to any of
the clubs. In short, there is a
wide campus appeal for activi-
ties of the various organiza-
tions.

Yet, the number of students
who are doing something con-
structive to see their goals put
into practice is limited basi-
cally to the civil rights work-
ers. NSM workers have made
a firm commitment by getting
out and working with the pco-
pie they are trying to help, by
spending hours in Roxbury
trying to educate and organize.
There can be little doubt that
they have chosen as a form of
activity concrete action de-
signed for specific achieve-
ments, which hopefully would
lead to major clianges in so-
ciety.

lleiu-y Cabot Lodge s{)oke al Brandeis on March 'U as the tirst guest of the newly-
formed Judgre's Advocates.

Henry ('abot Lod^^e is a man in a unique position. As a Presidential advisor (»n Viet
Nam he remains deeply enmeshed in the Southi-ast Asian situation. However. Mr. Lodge
is no longer directly responsible for policy fojMnulation or implementation as he wa.s
as Ambassador to South Viet Nam during the Kennedy Administration. Thus, although

he is now one of the Johnson , : — — T T- —

Administration's best qualified amine the address in three position and large prjpulalion
spokesmen on Viet Nam. he parts: 1) a justification of as a key to control of the Far
can. and often does, dismiss American involvement in East and as the potential head-
questions claiming he does not Southeast Asia, 2) the mditary quarters of a Chinese hege-
have access to the needed in-
formation.

For example, Mr. Lodge
spoke at length of the urgent
need for non-military assist-
ance to South Vict Nam. Yet,
when aske^^d what action the
United States contemplated, he
mentioned only furthering the
liospital and .school facilities
now operated. President John-
son has announced a one-bil-
lion-dollar development plan
for the Mekong River basin.

This discrepancy was due to
the fact that Mr. Lodge's
speech expressed declared ad-
ministration as of ten days ago.

The speaker divided his ad-
dress, calling the first half an
identification of the problem,
the .second half, a discussion of
the nature of the problem. Ac-
tually, it would be easier to ex-

nature of the opposition. 3) the
non-military efforts of the U.S.
in South Viet Nam.

A consideration of American
military actions, past or pres-
ent, was conspiculously ab.sent.
Mr. Lodge mentioned only that
he "could not see far enough
into the future" to know if the
US. would bomb North Viet
Namese supply lines in Red
Chinese territory. He side-
stepped comment on the moral
issue of napalm and defoliation
by noting the gas was used
"only two or three times." and
that defoliation was u.sed only
along roadways and canals to
prevent ambush. Both state-
ments were made only in re-
sponse to questioning

To justify American inter-
vention in Viet Nam the speak-
er cited the country's strategic

mony. In this light the war in
Viet Nam should be viewed as
part of the continuum which in-
cludes Greece. Iran, Berlin, and
Malaya. "If this were a civil
revolution alone US. support
would not be necessary," he
stated.

held, two negotiated .settU'-

this objection to a negotiated
.settlement consistent with his
promi.se that the minute the
(Communist I r)nslaught cea.ses
there can be peace and we
Americans can go home," and

Overstreet, Westin: Extremism

By HEKT FOER

If extremism in the defense
of liberty is really no vice,
what, then, is it? Last summer,
the question didn't present
much of a problem: Goldwater
r€fused to denounce extrem-
ism; therefore it had to be evil.
But now the times are some-
what more sober, and the ques-
tion deserves a less bibulous
discussion. Speaking at the
fourth and fifth lectures of the
Adult Education Series on Ex-
tremism in Perspective, Dr. Al-
an F. Westin and Mrs. Bonaro
Overstreet provided articulate
and temperate examinations of
•The Extreme Right Wing in
America" and "The Psychology
©f Extremism," respectively.

In lectures whose subjects
sometimes overlapped, both
Westin and Overstreet strove
to depict the essential meaning
of extremism, particularly
Right Wing extremism, for our
time. While not overlooking
the so-called "Danger on the
Right." neither speaker was
satisfied with a simple denunci-
ation of extremism as a vice.
To Dr. Westin, an assistant pro-
fessor of Public Law and Gov-
ernment at Columbia Univer-
sity, extremists "perform a
kind of therapeutic role" for
America, by forcing liberals
and conservatives to defend
their policies, thereby keeping
the Center from becoming un-
reflective. To Mrs. Overstreet,
a nationally known connois-
seur of extremism (and the co-
author, with her husband, of a
new book. The Strange Tactics
•f Extremism). Right Wing ex-
tr«'mism is "a manifestation of
tremendous frustration" in the
face of change and perplexity;
it is, in short, a matter of spirit!

Extremism Not New

Dr. Westin began his remark-
ably well-organized lecture by
reviewing assumptions we gen-
erally share about extremism.
First, he said, it is "not the spe-
cial product of our generation,"
but a permanent aspect of
American politics.

Extremism may be perma-
nent; however, it must take its
specific characteristics in each
generation, and, according to
Mrs. Overstreet, we live in
•*one of those fairly frenetic
periods of history" in which
things continually change. This
change, this perplexity of mod-
ern existence, "taxes the indi-
vidual power of adjustment to
relax in the age and feel at
home in it," and consequently
a "tolerance for ambiguity"
and "an emotional capacity to
live through states of suspend-
ed judgment" is required if one
is to avoid the simplistic in-
dulgences of extremism.

Riffht and Left Alike

Some time was spent in ex-
examining Dr. Westin's second
assumption, that both the Right
and the Left extremes share a
number of general character-
istics. Both assume that there
are revolutionary solutions that
are simple and easily formu-
lated, which will s o 1 V e our
problems; both reject the estab-
lished institutions which we
use to work at these problems;
both maintain a conspiracy
theory of history and politics;
both utilize radical means and
tactics.

In distinguishing between
ultra-conservatives and extrem-
ists, Mrs. Overstreet draws the
line, not in terms of opinions,
but in terms of structure and
methods. The D A.R., for ex-
ample, is to be classified dif-
ferently from the John Birch
Society because the former is
democratic in structure, where-
as the latter is monolithic, se-
cretive, and based on some-
thing like what the Nazis used
to call "the leadership princi-
ple." Unfortunately, Dr. Wes-
tin was quite vague on this def-
initional question, as he dem-
onstrated in answer to two
questions. Tlie Ku Klux Klan,
he said, did not fall into his
category of the Radical Right.
Later he equivocated on Wil-
liam Buckley of the National
Review, saying that he is on the
borderline, a soul that can still
be saved.

Extreme Right and Left, ac-

cording to Dr. Westin, share
.»Jome other characteristics. For
instance, both movements have
"built-in failure factors' that
keep them small, angry, ex-
treme, and rather on the hope-
less side so far as future de-
cisiveness is concerned.

Radical Right

Turning specifically to the
Radical Right, Dr. Westin
pointed out that its recent his-
tory could be divided into three
periods. From 1958-61 it under-
went its organizational period,
picking up more and more peo-
ple on the local levels, build-
ing its strength on disillusioned
Eisenhower Republicans this
was the time of bomb shelters
and of the Bay of Pigs, a time
of insecurity and of rising hos-
tility to the "takeover in Wash-
ington of Communist forces."

The years 1961-62 were years
of confrontation with American
society, as the John Birch So-
ciety and other organizations
began to appear in public. The
general commentary in the
press and the repudiation by

the American Center seemed to
close them off, and many
thought that the Radical Right
wouldn't survive this exposure.
Yet Goldwater was nomi-
nated — in itself a triumph —
and the nominees of the Rad-
ical Right were successful lo-
cally after the 1964 election.
In fact, in the past half year the
Birch Society has been grow-
ing rapidly, not only in the
usual fringe states, but locally
in areas where no chapters had
previously existed. Dr. Westin
attributes this growth to three
things:

Right Wing Growth

First, the Negro Civil Rights
struggle has congealed those
anti-Negroes who feel unpro-
tected by the Republicans or
conservatives, and who feel
that the movement is part of
the Communist conspiracy.

Second, members of the Rad-
ical Right have been di.saffected
by progress in religious inter-
group harmony. The status of
Jews, the modernization of the
Catholic Church, and the spirit

Latin America

of ecumenism nre among the
changes with which many indi-
viduals are not able to cope.
These are people, as Mrs. Over-
street points out, who are more
concerned with the theological,
salvational side of religion
than with the social gospel.

Finally, the political situa-
tion itself has nourished Right
Wing growth. The ideal nom-
inee of the extremists, Gold-
water, made it possible for the
proliferation of auto stickers
which read: 26 million Amer-
icans can't be wrong! His can-
didacy, said Dr. Westin in a re-
mark picked up by the wire
services, has given the Right
Wing an aura of respectability
which previously was lacking.
In addition, since the election
the Rightists have had a sub-
stantial hold over local parties
and now have considerable
patronage in terms of influen-
tial positions in the parly or-
ganization. As Mrs. Overstreet
indicates, the Right Wing in
the last few years moved into a
kind of vacuum found on the
local level, and until we, the

non-extremists, are willine tn
actively practice the Amencan
principles in which we believe
they will remain. '

Dr. Westin expressed a dis-
satisfaction with all attempts lo
^^^^.uL ^^^ important question
of Who are the extremists of
the Right?" Reflexive, ideolog-
ical answers, polls, surveys
and sociological and p.sycho-
logical analyses all fail, he .said
The Right, actually, has a great
American cross section, includ-
ing geography, occupations, in-
comes, religions, and races.
With this warning, we can turii
to Mrs. Overstreet's analysis of
the Right extremists.

Need for Leaders

She calls our attention to
Lord Acton's famous admoni-
tion about power, and adds that
powerlessness also corrupts.
"People who in our complex
situation have come to feel tiiey
are steamrollered by fortes
over which they have no con-
trol" feel that tiiey cannot con-
trol the future. These people
need a leader, a man with a
formula, with a way out of
complexity. And where such a
leader is needed, he appears.

Robert Welch is such a man
with answers. His formulae
are simple: whatever the Gov-
ernment does is wrong; ev< n
the mental health movement is
Communist inspired. If some-
thing doesn't turn out rifjht,
there must be a villain at w<»rk,
and he may alternatively be
called a Communist, a pro-
Communist or a liberal.

The leader brings with him
an aura of pseudo-scholars;hip.
The Politician of Welch con-
tains examples of wicked foot-
notemanship, but the ultimate,
hopefully, is found in Dan
Stormer's None Dare Call It
Trea.son, which contains ap-
proximately 8 0 0 footnotrs.
Mrs. Overstreet sees signifi-
cance in this. The Right hales
intellectuals and has a ferhng
that it has been excluded from
the world of intellect. Int» 1-
lectuals are "the distorters of
our society," the cau.«e ^f what
is wrong. This hatred is large-
ly the fault of our educators,
who have failed, due to th» ir
use of polysyllabic language, to
communicate with a large part
of the American people, lo
make them feel included. The
self-appointed leader now
moves in to build the brid^us
they failed to build, construrt-
ing in part out of academic
trappings. Dr. Westin's ex-
planation of this anti-intelhc-
tualism is much simpler and
more to the point: intellectuals
are overwhelmingly part of
the enemy Liberal Center.

Lack of Logic

The leader, finally, manages
lo shatter logic, making evi-
dence irrelevant, by providing
first the conclusion, then Hie
evidence. For example. Profes-
sor Revilo Oliver, a man who
seemingly not only thinks, but
signs his name with mirrors,
has set down the thesis that
President Kennedy was assas-
sinated by the Communists be-
cause he wasn't preparing the
country for the Revolution fast
enough. His conclusion, slates
Mrs. Overstreet, is "based on
never-never land kind of evi-
dence that had to be true be-
cause it fitted into the formula "

The leader provides the for-
mulae but the formulae do not
solve problems; born in power-
lessness, serving the purpose
of making the followers feci
they have influence and power,
they only "get rid of and de-
stroy. These are the Abolition-
ists of today.

They are not happy people,
and extremism is "a phenom-
enon of unhappiness," Mrj;.
Overstreet says. The ex-
tremists of the Right are "a
lonely people, a frightened peo-
ple," who fear being mistaken
becau.se being mistaken would
destroy their formula, who
even fear the existence of lib-
eral anti-Communists, because
the Communist issue is their
own possession, has made them
important, and given them, in-
deed, an identity.

An Eflegy:

not to be spoken; not for talking.
For Michael Bleich

By PETER SAJOVIC

Children walking in the locked seasons,

Turning faces to the wind

For a crepe mask; to blind

The mourning mouth of the sea,-

Rain thoughts and a dust of wishes

Passed softly, sung softly,
Pressed softly through our fingers.

El dios
De la tierra
Y del sol

Y del aguas grandes
Sabe todo.

That lion life, mane fruit hung

On a childless new tree,

Mawed by blood-white night horses

Though he strokcni plank broad neck

And nostril-hot lips smiling to ride.

I hereby call upon

The cageless bestiary and the birds

To call his name:

Sabe el que el amor
Lo pucde todo.

Pain was the burnt expanding eye.

The spasmic starving jaw, throat pain,

The head, the houred nerve rods, staring, -

But does not disturb the dead.

And for his last days was

A curtain of hot hair, Mary,

Between time windows, to hold his face

From his death month's dry

Sirocco wind.

Now Michael, Old Mike, has turned

To watch the coral grow, and weed,

And sightless building shale.

Back to his back turned, and masked

Against the constant qualing wind,

The sheets of rainy ocean's tears, -

Feeling him withdrawn to dreams within,

We living children ride

The governed spinning of the years.

De la tierra y del sol

Y del aguas grandes.

EDITOR'S NOTE: This is the concluding section of a ntanuscripi entitled I Will Take The Clouds Awaj.

By RICHARD BURGIN

And we are on the subway. Denise sits spelU
bound. Mesmerized by an Alka seltzer ad. I am
simply enjoying the envious looks of all the
tcHinagers and even some of the men.

At Park Street we get off to transfer to a
Cambridge train. I take a good look at Denise
and get an idea.

"Look here, Denise, could you ah. Why don't
you ah put on some make up. I want you to
really be stunning when Mary sees you with
me."

"Allright. But I'm not going to put it on in
public Can't you find me a Ladies Room?"

I am in no position to find things. So I take
her hand and run with her upstairs to the
street.

"Well Denise you wanted me to show you
Boston — Here it is! All the beautiful sights and
sounds of the All American City." Then spying
a Hamburger Joint I say "Here's the famous
eating place of Ted Williams, The White Tower
Restaurant, now go in there and put on some
lipstick OK?"

Denise looks at me kind of funny like but
is on her way. When she returns we run around
the block past all the legless bums and beggars,
the gangs and their leaders, past the book-
stores and alleys and then we re-enter the sta-
tion just in time to catch the Cambridge Train.

The train also fascinates Denise, even though
the ads are not as imaginative. We are in the
tunnel now. The train roars through drowning
out all speech. I give in to its power happily.
I fall into a stuper, a meditation where I con-
template nothing at all. Coming out of the tun-
nel, I come out of my limbo and look out at
the River, lighted up and silver. The lovers are
lying down on the banks and some sit on the
benches. Denise is watching this too, and see-
ing her like that — her face pressed against the
glass of the train window, I put my hand to
her neck . . .

... In Harvard Square, walking around with
Denise. At night Harvard Square looks just like
it did the last night I was there. In his booth
on the street, the cop sits telling people to
move on. The girls — some scrawny and twelve,
others fat and past twenty, are leaning against
walls, or posts, or mailboxes, in front of the
bank, or Brigham's, or the bookstore, they
stand — most of them not whores just out for a
pick up, most of them in groups of three or
more, some of them alone like lean hungry
animals, all of them painted up, most of them
smoking.

Denise is ecstatic? What sights! When we
pass the Club 47 and see the waiting line
D>enise cannot believe her eyes, what could the
attraction be? Why all the people?

And Elsie's — jammed with students, beat-
nicks, floosies, the malcontent, the disen-
chantc»d.

Cambride is more exciting than Boston al-
though it is a good deal like Boston, but it
hides under European paint. Unfortunately
every now and so often it wears thin . . ,
Walking in circles searching for Mary's school.
This will be one of the last nights for walking,
the snow and cold will soon be coming . . .
Everyone is taking advantage, you see. 'They're
all out walking . . .

In the Berkshires I never really walked, just
like I've never really talked. It was much lesa
contrived, much more blissful, like moving
through a dream. I am thinking of that peculiar
and lovely night when I first went out with
her. We climbed a hill and looked out at the
trees. We spoke of God and dreams and run-
ning water, we told scary stories, and when it
got dark we got scared and ran down the trail
in the darkness . . . soon a light rain began to
fall and we accordingly left her house and
sharing an umbrella walked into town. It was
well past the end of the concert and LenoK
was nearly desertd. I bought her a sundae and
myself a parfait, and we laughed and spoke in
whispers and spilled the fudge sauce. Then we
moved to the Curtis Hotel. We sat on the
veranda and watched the rain. On the way
back I kissed her hair — I felt extraordinarily
fresh.

Now everything seems rushed, forced. To
make Denise put on make up in The White
Tower. How foolish it seems. How artificial.

Walking in a maze, searching for Mary's
school. Feeling the essence of Berkshire life.
Feeling images that are rich and unified — .
feeling the images not in sequence, one follow-
ing another, but feeling them all hit me at once
and wash me clean — trying to be like the sand
when the water slaps against and kisses it.

So feeling all of this I am at once rowing out
to an Island with Cherry, and the girl from
Argentina. And I am at once at the movie«»

kissing the girl from Argentina, who is even
younger than Abby, but looks even older—
and am I wrong to go back to the crib, to de-
sire the infant? Just the other day I thumbed
out to Williamstown with a 12 year old. When
I got to Williams College I urinated in their
empty playhouse — when I returned I played
ping pong for two hours with a nine year old,
and then I stole a turkey — and Cherry, you
got jealous, for I pay no attention to you now.

But Cherry you are not quite stupid enough,
and I am a wisdom seeker — thus the older I
get the more I must turn to babies for wisdom
and guidance —

I am at once at the concerts, the movies, the
Miniature Golf Course, reading my writing to
George, fighting with my mother — why not?
Even that had its special pleasure. There was
a certain pleasure in every breath I drew—
then when I was happy. Even when suffering
for the one who hurt me, the one I am visiting
tonight, I was happy I carried on conversation
with her many a time you see. Passing through
the grove on my way to the shore I would sing
to her my Berkshire song — dissonance or ca-
dence it made no difference it was a joy simply
to sing — and I used to tell her everything.

Before I knock on the door I put my arm
around Denise.

"Act like you're in love with me. okay?"

"Sure. But what makes you think she'll be
in.

"Just a feeling.'*

The door opens A plump little brunette
stands before me with a head shaped like an
apple.

"Is Mary Jane in?"

The girl beckons me closer and speaka softly.

"Are you Karl?'*

"Yes."

"Mary Jane's gone home for the weekend *
"Oh "

"You see her boyfriend's father died and she
really got all broken up alK)ut it. They told her
while she was having a physical — she ju.st ran
out crying. The stupid nurse yelled at her. Well
now she's gone home to be with Stan."

In a room

Through which no other eyes

Can see the sunrise of the moon

(In its tick-tock twist

Of living and slain.

Smiles and sighs).

Bidding good-day to the entrance of pain*

My eyes flame now.

In a grove

From which no other ears

Can hear the tolling of Sunday bells

(In their clanging call

To believers and foes,

Anti-Christs so called),

Inviting all to roll in the warmth of

December snows.
My ears are pinned to an evergreen bow.

In a stream

From which no other tongue

Can cut the flowing of the falls

(In its roaring pa.ssage

O'er lily-pads and fishes

To its resting place in the crashing sea),

Winding through rocks to fulfill its

wishes.
My tongue is tied to the washed weeds.

In a rock

Through which no other .soul

Can sense the coldness of my own

(In its wretched cla.sping

To wrong and right.

Truths turned old).

Turning red in its hatred for flight.

My soul screams now and breeds new seeds.

EDITOR'S NOTE: Aside jrom the obvious merit of this paper, it is fitting that an article of
this kind appear in a Brandeis publication. It calls to the reader's attention some oj the interest-
ing contemporary architecture that can be seen in the Boston and Cambridge area.

In 1949 and 1950, Walter Gropius served as ** job-captain" of the Architects'
Collaborative (TAG) for the design of the Harvard Graduate Center. The complex of
seven dormitories and Harkness Commons represents the mature stage in the work of
Gropius, who was then professor of Architecture at the Harvard Graduate School of
Design. The news releases of September and October, 1950, described the salient fea-
tures of the Center, according to the reporters and university officials: it cost three
million dollars and was ''planned to provide maximum housing at limited cost"; the
three and four story dorm buildings, of buff brick and glass, "brightened by occa-
sional panels of color", were ~~~

tral space. The continuity of
motion was intended to origi-
nate and expand naturally
from this center; the rhythm
would be aided by the re-
peated use of the basic module.
For Gropius, however, the
form itself must not be static
but must be subordinated to
and involved with the flow of
space.

According to Vincent Scully,
Jr., the fluid relationship of
the Harvard building is "coun-
ter to their intrinsic nature"
while Mies' plan, which "de-
fined both mass and void by a
single module," assured the
static and separate nature of
each building. Yet, to Gropius,
the idea of "total architecture"
implied an antimonumental
and, therefore, anti-s t a t i c
quality:

the impact of environment on
a young man during his col-
lege years is certainly decisive
. . . Stimulating environment is
just as important to free the
students' creative talent as
vigorous teaching . . How can
we expect our students to be-
come bold and fearless in
thought and action if we en-
case them timidly in sentimen-
tal shrines, feigning a culture
which has long since disap-
peared? The physical and
spiritual functions determining
the design of a building are in-
terdependent.

The key word which ap-
parently determines every as-
pect of the Graduate Center is
"interdependent." We have
discussed the Bauhaus arrange-
ment of interlocking cubes. It
is also evident that the Cen-
ter was intended to merge with
its surroundings, for one
curved wall of the Commons
serves as a definite visual link
with the Law School quad-
rangle. In this way, Gropius
deviated from the previous
pattern of the original Har-
vard Yard; this pattern empha-
sized an enclosed, independent,
discontinuous area and was
therefore not suited to display
Gropius' ideas.

The Commons building
stands as a symbol of the idea
of interdependence. As an
architectual entity, according
to one observer, it "gives an
architectonic impetus to the
whole structure" and, as was
pointed out above, united the
various points of reference of
each dormitory building. Yet
even more significant, accord-
ing to most people who speak
about the Center and Gropius'
purposes, is that the Commons
represents an attempt to unite
the contemporary arts, in all
fields, with public life. Thus,
there are mural paintings for
the dining hall by Juan Miro
and Herbert Bayer; wood re-
liefs by Hans Arp in the grille
room; tile mural accompany-
ing the ramp by Herbert
Bayer; a brick relief by Josef
Albers; steel pylon by Richard
Lippold in front of the Com-
mons; world maps by Gyorgy
Kepes in the dormitory
lounges.

Whether or not the arts have
been successfully, and subtly,
integrated in the building is
still debatable. But on the

whole, the interior is rich in
a variety of sensual experi-
ences, for it offers different
textures and colors and a con-
tinuously surprising space. The
ramp is an important constitu-
ent of these impressions. It is
a microcosm of the Commons
itself, for it provides both an
architectonic focal point and
an interesting visual and
spatial experience.

In its emphasis on interde-
pendence and continuity, the
Center thus reveals Gropius'
conviction that "architects
should conceive of buildings
not as monuments but as re-
ceptacles for the flow of life
which they have to serve."
This conviction has both per-
mitted and prohibited Gropius'
artistic expression. It has per-
mitted him to create environ-
ments, not just structures, and
it has made him consider, in
his work, how people move
from one place to another and
not simply whether a building
is a work of art.

However, this "impersonal
instrument" theory of architec-
ture' indicates that Gropius
places a much greater empha-
sis on the social realities, such
as the importance and inevit-
ability of technology and col-
laboration, than on the impor-
tance of personal expression in
art. As James Fitch has said,
"the pull of social reality . . •
has . . oriented Gropius away
from the intimate, the person-
al, the subjective This has
necessarily restricted the color
and passion with which, as an
artist, he might otherwise have
infused his works. But it is
obvious that temperament also
plays a part here: sheer ra-
tionality would have prevent-
ed his committing such acts of
subjectivity as Taliesin or Ron-
champ."

It is not instructive to point
to temperament nor to com-
pare Gropius with such polar
opposites in national tempera-
ment as Wright and le Cor-
busier. More valid would be a
reference to Mies' IIT campus
which demonstrates both a
concern for social realities and
an interest in each building as
an important architectural en-
tity. This comparison tends to
reveal a lack of imagination
and new ideas in this late
work of Gropius. As Pevsner
says, however excellent the de-
sign of the elevation, however
well-functioning the plan,
there is indeed something lack-
ing here, and one finds one-
self longing for the organic in-
stead of the mechanic, t h e
imaginative instead of the in-
tellectual, the free instead of
the rigidly organized.

This criticism is not merely
a demonstration of nostalgia.
Gropius' attempt to unite so-
ciological concepts with archi-
tectural design has proved to
be outstanding in neither re-
spect. The lack of integration
is the most striking failure of
the Center. Gropius found the
geometric, regular shapes of
the dorms most suitable for
their function, which was to
comfortably and cheaply house
many students. He thus ap-
plied the "machine esthetic" to
the individual buildings. Yet
his antipathy toward the place
of the static, monumental struc-
ture in our modern, mobile
and diversified times, led him
to apply his concept of the or-
ganic quality, "many - sided-
ness," to the "space-in-motion
arrangement of these rational
structures. Spontaneity a n d
coherence were sacrificed m
the attempt to manufacture
diversity and excitement.

Portrait of the Tramp as a Young Artist

My Autobiography

. by Charles Chaplin
Simon and Schuster
512 pp, ?6.95. ,

by Arthur Boehm

No written form promises
more, and fails more frequent-
ly to live up to its promise,
than the autobiography. If the
novel or narrative demands
knowledge of the world, the
autobiography demands per-
haps a greater knowledge —
a knowledge of self. The need
to justify fame often (too fre-
quently the only prerequisite
considered necessary to en-
courage the printed regurgita-
tion of a man's memoirs) causes
most damage to both credibi-
lity and prose. We may find
that we know little about an
artist though we can account
for every cocktail party he at-
tended for several decades. Is
it unfair to demand the per-
reption and talent of an au-
thor (mastery of the literary
form) from a man who makes
no claim to be an author? Can
we demand it from the creator
©f the Tramp, the author of
Modern Times and Monsieur
Verdoux? While objectivity
tells us that a master in one
medium need not be a master
in another, we expect some of
the ability to master one medi-
um to be transferred into the
ability to handle another. We
want much more of My
Autobiography by Charles
Chaplin than we get, above all
insight: knowledge of the au-
thor, of his art, of its meaning
and the nature of its source.
Sadly, we get externals for the
most part: a travelogue of
places, faces and dates. A dis-
cussion of the life and part of
the cinema in this country for
its first thirty years or so is in
large measure a discussion of
Charles Chaplin.

The book is a sprawling
chronology, a kind of personal
survey. It begins in 1889 in
England in poverty and ends
at the Manoir de Ban in the
village of Corsier in Switzer-
land in affluence. Born the son
©f a variety artist, a father
who died of alcoholism and a
mother, a music hall soubrette,
who eventually lost her mind,
Chaplin's childhood was spent
in and out of the workhouse.
He manages to depict this
©f variety artists, of a father
existence without rancor, with
a kind of detachment which
does not, however, eliminate
the communication of feeling:
the strong bond between the
author, his brother and his
mother. Here Chaplin writes
free of selfconsciousness, tak-
ing delig-ht in the sheer ability
to recall the child's world, a
past so real to him, and so
much his, that the evocation of
every detail enchants the read-
er, happily belies the misery
of the slum environment. Days
are crammed with events and

puzzles, experience and imagi-
nation later exploited and
made glorious on the lots of
Keystone and Essanay. Here
is the zest and freshness of dis-
covery, the intensity of ex-
treme, of good food in an
empty belly, of a warm bed
during a frigid winter. Chaplin
writes:

In my world of three and
a half years all things were
possible; if Sydney, who was
four years older than I,
could perform legerdemain
and swallow a coin and
make it come out through
the back of his head, I could
do the same; so I swallowed
a halfpenny and Mother was
obliged to send for a doctor,

and the tone is set for the
chronical of the early years.
With the disintegration of his
mother's mind, the family's
plight becomes most severe:
she is committed to an asy-
lum, and the boys are sent to
a still-Victorian workhouse.
Then, at age twelve, Chaplin
gets his first important part in
Jim: the Romance of a Cock-
ney, and he is a hit, bringing
financial salvation to his fam-
ily. He is on his way. He tours
the English provinces with an
act called The Eight Lanca-
shire Lads, and arrives in
America eventually with the
Karno Company. It is in the
music halls that his style is
born and developed. As a comic
in t h e Karno reviews. Chap-
lin is spotted by Mack Sen-
net whose wonderfully crude,
rough-and-tumble Keystone
Comedies had attained much
success. Interested in films, but
with the idea of returning to
vaudeville, Chaplin signs a
contract to appear in three
films a week for a salary of
one hundred and fifty dollars,
as substitute for the goateed,
squint-eyed Lord Sterling. He
makes his first film for Key-
stone, Making a Living, in
1914; it was in this year that
the Tramp was born, that
Chaplin began asserting his au-
thority as film-maker. It was
in the exhileration of improvi-
sation that the Tramp was
given life, and in this special
exhilaration he came to be
loved by his audiences. The
Tramp, "a gentleman, poet, a
dreamer — always hopeful of
romance," as Sennet termed
him, was an extraordinary
creation: the imperfect hero,
glorious in the profoundly hu-
man defect of unrealized po-
tential, a lover afraid of love,
an Everyman put upon by
a world he cannot control,
through which he may stum-
ble, but on whose figures of
authority there is always su-
perb comic revenge. The ap-
peal was unmistakable, fame
wa> quick and worldwide. And
under fame's influence the au-
tobiography becomes a mono-
tony. Where is the statement of
technique?

Where is the detailed discus-
sion of the making of a film,
the problems encountered in its
creation, not in its distribution

and publicity. It all has to do
with the fact that his art, that
is, his career, is much more re-
moved from everyday experi-
ence than the life of the states-
man or writer who has written
his autobiography. Although
we are interested in Chaplin's
numerous encounters with cele-
brities, the facts of the pa-
ternity suit, of the political
accusations which forced exile
upon him, we are primarily
concerned with the man in
light of his work,, with his
work itself. No other "movie
star" has exhibited such artis-
tic longevity: the fact that the
Chaplin idiom has survived and
prospered (perhaps reached its
apotheosis) beyond the silent
era cries out for an explana-
tion of the phenomenon. Naive
philosophizing, pretentious
prose, or pages devoted to con-
versation with Churchill do not
help. Chaplin is a man of keen
observation; it is a shame that
this has not been employed, for
the most part, on the printed
page.

John Donne: The Holy Sonnets

By ROBERT LISS

Even upon first reading Donne's "Holy Sonnets" one is struck by the way in
which the special handling of the sonnet form echoes and intensifies the content. The
sonnet seems as dictated to these private meditations and colloquies as blank verse
is to the soliloquies of Shakespeare's tragic heroes. The question which must be asked
is, what is there about the situation of the speaker in the "Holy Sonnets" that is to

the sonnet form as the nobility of Hamlet is to blank verse. ^

One way of getting at the an- ~

swer is to notice that the great was constantly before him, and changing moods. This accords
sonneteers before Donne, Pe- he was repeatedly making sure with our own experience of try-

The screaming fury of the times.

Sewers overturned — tossed against her face

On the old grey mop with which she'd often paced

Meticulously, patiently — saying ancient prayers;

Reflecting on the past; mumbling crazy rhymes.

She had no flag (her knees were patched
My insane grandma, never whole),
No flag to raise in eulogy
Upon the steps toward liberty
(Her swallowed fury neatly cached
In her old cookbook — in her soul).

Only this is left her mind:
Because 0/ God within the breast
Soul though never turning knows
Paradise earth can stage no shows —
Father's kisses, sweet and kind —
Lover's letters in the chest.

And all this has become her Hell.
Dark, furjous, raging at the wall,
She sings her only song and cries —
And this is all that does not die:
The recipes; knitting in the cell;
The crazy cliff before the fall.

Notes on Style and Obscenity

By RICHARD JACOBSON

Previous "Notes on Style and Obscenity'' have defined obscenity as "that which
breaks down the necessary illusion that life is valuable a«id that the functions a hu-
man being performs in life are necessarily good and right." What then are some in*

yet be alone. Very strange how stances, in art and in life, which can serve as examples of this obscenity?

passage of time since I left
Kirkland Hall I have thought
so hard of Mary and suffered,
I think, so fiercly that I feel a
little fortified, a little cleansed.
I no longer see things as if
looking up from water, I am
instead looking down into the
very depths of water, of De-
nise, of the park bench, of
anything at all.
. . . Lying by the Charles on
an Indian summer evening.
The river is dark, lambent,
lights flow on it softly. Every-
where people are kissing by
the river. Here the noises of
city diminish There is only a
trickle of laughter perhaps, or
the whistle of a moving train.
Denise is confiding in me
now She is telling me of her
lost lover, of her own private
unhappiness. but I don't need
her story for an escape — I
need it to show her I can lis-
ten, to show her I can listen
as well as talk, can listen as
deeply as the river. In the
silence of my listening a great
peace comes that washes me
clean as sand, and leaves me
smiling I no longer need them
to be happy, I have myself.
Peace is growing inside me,
taking root in my heart and
opening up like a flower.
Right now I fee the peace will
have some permanence, will
not leave me, will always for-
tify me. No matter how
wretched things may be. no
matter how neurotic my com-
pany I feel I can fall into this
flower of my peace and fall
asleep forever among the pet-
als Inside the flower of my-
self I am singing To Denise,
to Mary, to McCoy, to the
river, To anyone at all — I will
end all nigh(s of doom and I
will spread my cheer like a
river. 1 will take the clouds
away and give you sunlight,
and I will scrub your rectum
and purify your womb.
... At last I am alone. And
what of Denise? Yes she is
here lying l)y my side and as
I feel somewhat stronger I
will probably be kissing her,
touching her, feeling her skin,
drinking her saliva. And
though there is no emotional
involvement, it is by no means
an empty seduction. Is it
wrong to try to seduce a hu-
man iK'ing, to give it physical
love? I would rather do that
to Denise than to plan her
murder, or even pray for her.
And if you think that I'm
yornng a«id cra^y and my
words are empty — you're

beautiful loneliness can be
Ah yes now I know why crazy
cock likes to t>e alone so much,
now I know why the wind is
alone.

An extra irdinary day. Look-
ing tMck into it there are only
fragments — the train ride —
meeting Denise — standing out-
side the college — meeting
Richard — riding in the car —
r ying the piano at Lasalle —
waiting for the bus — eating
chicken and peas and bitter
eclairs — making Denise paint
her face in the White Tower —
Kirkland Hall and the apple
head girl, and now lying by
the river alone with Denise.

But what does this say of
my memories, my feelings, my
dreams? I remember thinking
a lot about my summer, but
not really thinking, more like
feeling it, I imagine. Such lu-
cid feelings I could almost
touch the lake, smell the
grove, in the world of my
mind Abby was in my arms,
life was lovely once more.

Certainly I need them. The
loneliness will not be perma-
nent nor will the peace. And
not only do I need them but I
also need the school and all
its neurotics, the city with all
its filth, I need the ineptitude
and despair, embarassment and
fear, the petty and the grand,
who knows, maybe a few wars
are even necessary?

A little boy runs by us
whistling. I roll over laughing
and begin to kiss Denise. We
are kissing and laughing in the
grass by the river and I am

a lie I guess, but why not?
After all, romance is like fic-
tion, and sometimes it's alright
to lie a little in the interest
of the dooner truth.

There has been a large number of films in the last five years — most of which,
mercifully, have not come to the United States — which share these essentials: they are

Ekiglish; they

made in Italy in
consist of episodic tableaux un-
related to each other by plot;
succeeding scenes show varia-
tions on the theme of the lurid,
the unusual, the inverted, ac-
tions which are clearly opposed
to what we conventionally re-
gard as those of a more or less
humane and civilized feeling
towards the world. The gros-
sest of the films of this genre
are still titillating some minds
in Europe: there is a series
called "Nights of ... " includ-
ing "Nights of America,"
"Nights of Europe," and the
biggest and best, "Nights of the
World," which show strip
scenes and bizarre nightclub
acts from various countries.
One which especially comes to
mind is a scene from a Brazil-
ian nightclub act in which
g-stringed men and women,
playing cavemen, rush from
the jungle-set on the stage
onto the floor between the
tables and grind on each other's
stomachs, sighing, (in English)
"Se-e-e-e-x. O s-e-e-e-e-x!"

Of the two films which have
been admitted to this country,
Mondo Cane is clearly superior ship across
— it at least has the more
definitely formulated principle
that living is crap, that human
life is not worth the chemicals

love still admire:
Only expressions of admiration
can satisfy Donne's sins, so the
next five lines and the next son-
net are devoted to admiration
of Christ and God.

Donne used the sonnet form
for what he believed would be
his final meditations largely be-
cause its shortness echoed the
"narrow time" between the mo-
ment one sees death approach-
mg« and the moment it is there.

There are several ways Donne
made the sonnet even more
compact than it is, and these
will be examined in the second
part of this paper.

There is another reason for
Donne's choice of the sonnet
form; it is the only form which
contains .such a complicated and
exigent set of structural ele-
ments within such a small
framework. Donne's descrip-
tion of himself at the begin-
ning of sonnet 5, "I am a little
world made cunningly /Of Ele-
ments, and an Angelike
spright" in both Donne and his
sonnets, and the difficulty of

concern in this film are canni-
balism and food; the androgy-
nous; and various ways of dy-
ing.

Scenes

The film opens with a view
of a woman suckling a pig,
while the narrator informs us
that "a mother who has lost
her child is required by the
custom of her New Guinea
tribe to suckle a young pig
which has lost its mother."
Soon afterwards the camera
treats us to the sight of three
New Guinea belles being fat-
tened like geese — not, as we
are inclined to suspect, in order
to be eaten — but rather to be
ceremonially led into the hut
and l>ed of the chief, who turns
out to be a skeleton of a man
himself There follows almost
immediately a scene of geese
being force-fed fattening meal,
with no verbal comparisons
required. Then we see a con-
vocation of cannibals assem-
bling for their quintennial feast
of pigs (we are only slighlly
disappointed by the conven-
tional nature of the fare, since
the whole herd of swine is bat-
tered to death before our eyes
and roasted, uneviscerated ).

In following scenes the film
takes us to a sale of snakes
in Singapore, the inside of a

a cargoplane. The narrator en-
lightens us: thousands of ad-
herents, like the ones hero,
have evolved a myth about the
cargoplane they see flying its
regular course in the sky. The
White Man stole the plane from
the gods, who had originally
intended it for the black men
of New Guinea. But soon the
gods will restore to them the
secret of flight and power and
put life into their pitiful wood-
en model.

Obscenity and its Roots

The obscenity of the film lies
in its disgust with man: not
just with his cruel behavior,
but in the very decrepitude of
his flesh. A human life, we are
reminded, is worth precious
little after all. And our faith
is nothing more than the empty
optimism of small children a
nugget of fool's gold which we
polish with all the effort of
our little worthless jester's
hearts.

I would not keep such ob-
scenity from our eyes or minds.
Why after all maintain our il-
lusions? Is not knowing the
truth about man — not the mes-
sage which the films try to con-
vey, but the lesson about man
which willy-nilly they give us
— is not knowing that truth
superior to some blind Panglos-
sianism?

I think that such works of
obscenity should not. and can
not be put away from sight.
We need the daily reminder
they provide about the dark
chambers inside us. It is these
dark and cruel parts which, in
dominating us. have given us
much of our history, most es-
pecially the history of the la.st
generation, and these same dull
areas of brutishness which we

Lodge on Vietnam

(Continued from Page 3)

World opinion was the for-
mer ambassador's final justifi-
cation. He decried the "belief
that security can be attained by
throwing small steaks to the
wolves," and instead urged his
audience to heed Winston
Churchill's "we arm to parley."

At this point, Mr. Lodge
shifted to a discussion of the
Viet Cong. He acknowledged
that the Hanoi government ap-
peared to be in charge of its
Viet Cong forces, although they
are always backed by the Red
Chinese.

The former ambassador esti-
mated that 85% of the Viet
Cong fought out of fear of the
terrorists; the remaining 15%,
out of rebellion against the
chain of so-called German,
French, and American domina-
tion. He did not attribute any
motivation to the Ho Chi Minh
regime. In the only provocative
question posed by the audience.
Professor Donald Hindley asked
how "the extreme, positive
motivation of the South Viet-
namese peasants to fight for the
Viet Cong" could be explained.
The reply gave two reasons:

1) "the very capable leader-
ship of Northern officers," and

2) indoctrination.

Here Mr. Lodge reasserted
that if terrorism could be elimi-
nated, the Viet Cong would be
broken. He contended that in
an average hamlet there were
minorities for South Viet Nam,
for the Viet Cong, and "a large,
neutral majority hoping to duck
both."

The Presidential Advisor
chose to elaborate on this issue
of South Vietnamese apathy.
The tropics' abundant food and
warmth make permanent shel-
ters unnecessary, encouraging
nomadcsin. The Conf ucianist
philosophy encourages an an-
cestor, thus family, worship
which precludes a sense of loy-
alty to the state. Therefore, Mr.
Lodge concludes, the South
Vietnamese is a good soldier
and is loyal to his unit, yet he
lacks a strong national disci-
pline. This is also to explain,
partly, the history of factional-
ism in Saigon, governments in
the coup tradition of South Viet
Nam.

Mr. Lodge then moved on to
his third area: non-military
U.S. efforts in South Viet Nam.
His theme was "there is no
quick, easy or non-military so-
lution." He proferred instead
extension of the technical aid
nrogram now operated in South
Viet Nam which includes
American-run hospitals, the ed-
ucation of South Vietnamese
students in the U.S., and, yes,
he even used the very words,
"possibly a Marshall Plan for
Southeast Asia." He also advo-
cated stepping-up the South
Vietnamese counter subversion
program.

The speaker defended Amer-
ican planes' attacks on North
Vietnamese territory as "wise
and courageous retaliations"
proving our right to be in South
Viet Nam. He added that "it
would be unfair to allow the
North Vietnamese to use what
they excel in [i.e. terrorism]
while we cannot use what we
excel in, air and naval power."

The speaker summarized his
analysis with a reassertion of
his earlier statements that
South Viet Nam is in no posi-
tion to negotiate "For South
Viet Nam to go to the confer-
ence table now, with a large
fifth column on its soil would
be unthinkable by any nation
in the West." He also rejected
neutralism as a solution, term-
ing neutralism, without en-
forcement, the same as sur-
render.

Henry Cabot Lodge con-
cluded with a plea for support
for what was the administra-
tion policy at the time. "Stale-
mate is better than defeat"; it
is "not in the American tradi-
tion to panic or get desperate
because there is no easy mili-
tary solution"; "Ladies and
gentlemen, we need not lose."

EDITOR'S NOTE: Mr. Hoff-
man asked to reinew FRED, as
did Mr. Sher. The editors felt
that Mr. Sher's review was far
more coherently and intelli-
gently wrought. Mr. Hoffman's
review relied on vague adjec-
tives while Mr. Sher cited con-
crete examples. Mr. Hoffman
rambled, while Mr. Sher's style
was clear and easy to follow.
So much for form or "style."

As for his content, it is true
that Mr. Sher's revieiv was pre-
ferred on this basis as well. Mr.
Sher's review was a more com-
prehensive report of the show
than Mr. Hoffman's. It is not
Mr. Hoffman's ''opinions" to
which we object: it's just that
his "ivording" could use a bit
of work,

P.S.

Left Wing

(Continued from Page 3)

This observer's impression of
the numerous protests and
demonstrations is that they ac-
complish very little if any-
thing. We do not mean to im-
ply that there was a large
segment of Americans who
wanted the President to act
more strongly. Rather, it is our
feeling that student demonstra-
tions have been overused to the
extent that people can con-
sider the demonstrators "Com-
munists," ' "beatniks," and
"perverts," which they ob-
viously are not. Rather than
educating the vast masses of
Americans to the worthiness of
their arguments, most leftists
have succeeded in solidifying
their own ranks while main-
taining the old antagonisms to
their movement.

One senses a futility in the
left-wing movement. The
movement desires changes that
it cannot institute, dianges that
must be made in Washington.
As opposed to the civil rights
fight, American foreign policy
cannot be attacked on the local
level. There seems to be little
concrete action that can be
taken. As a result, the student

existing injustices and wants
to do something about them.

it). Even their act, however,
'which is inherently great, was
somewhat dimmed by the bad
lighting. Here is a group for
which visual effect is import-
ant, if not essential. Thus the
non-dramatic lighting was a
great distraction. The Crystals
did their own songs. Da Doo

Then He Kissed Me. They did
a mediocre job on Twist and

his famous Quarter to 3 and

ciated from visual image, some-
times as straight film narrative,
as train of thought, to create
this organic form-content film.
The extent to which form
becomes content is partly due
to the starkness of the Harlem
environment in which it is
filmed, partly to the nature of

the story itself, and largely to
the perspective in which Miss
Clarke sets it. She treats
her characters with the same
"cool" perspective they use to
isolate themselves from their
world; the kind of thought that
seems to regard the self as an
object, that understates obser-
vation and emotion as a protec-
tion from confrontation with
the ugly intensity of slum ex-
istence.

There are two important
problems associated with the
handling and nature of con-
tent, which prevent it from
holding up to the level of
form. First there are certain
limitations inherent in dealing
with a story on a Negro slum
which are difficult to over-
come. "The Cool World" is a
penetrating, and in many ways
a powerful story of unchildren
playing children's games, and
using adult ploys and chil-

dren's guile — for keepsie's. Yet
the forces nH)ving now about
the Negro, the very context of
our society turn what should
be drama into document — and
document cannot hold its own
against the power of the form
of this film. The film tends too
much to seem to be a portrait of
the Negro slum prepared for the
perusal of a white liberal mid-
dleclass which is becoming
both satiated with and fright-
ened by the tale of the emer-
gence of our little black broth-
ers. Even without the prejudices
of our society at play, the
focus of the problem is socio-
logical rather than dramatic.
The n a t u r e of the dramatic
construction and some of this
documentary quality is height-
ened by the the uses of form
with respect to dramatic de-
velopment. This is especially
true of the scenes which tried
to create a sense of what the
Harlem environment is like.
These were attempts to make
creative use of form as con-

tent. Some of the shots are
street shots, some are shots of
the characters. But the societal
context inr^poses a docunfH?ntary
quality on them; the film in
short, is not able to escape from
the hot world.

Now there's a new radar system which,
like the frog, can see everywhere with-
out motion. It does three jobs simul-
taneously: searches the entire sky for
missiles, pinpoints the location of tar-
gets already spotted, and sorts out real
missiles from decoys. All in less time
♦han it takes to blink an eye.

It's done by steering the radar beam

electronically, and is the result of de-
velopment work for missile defense by
the scientists of a GT&E subsidiary.

Producing a radar system as versa-

creasing emphasis on research by the
GT&E family of subsidiaries — research
that stands as our solid base for future
growth.

THE JUSTICE

April 13, 1965

On the Judges' Bench

Rumor Has It

Pete Weiner

The rumors regarding a new basketball coach here at
Brandeis have been rampant since the Judges' five dropped
their 21st consecutive game. The name of the Celtic star,
K. C. Jones, has been prominent, both in the papers and
around the Brandeis campus, as**
a prospective coach.

Administrative authorities
have been quick to deny ti\e
story that appeared in the April
1st edition of The Washington
Post that K C. Jones will be-
come the head coach at Bran-
deis. Byron Roberts, a staff
writer of The Post, stated that
Jones will play one more year
with the Celtics before coming
to Brandeis.

But Mr. Irv OUn, director of
athletics and current basket-
ball coach, emphatically den-
ied the story. Olin said, "At
this moment (April 7), there is
truth to the story." Dean

no

Kermit Morrissey offered a
similar comment, stating: "As
of now, there is nothing defini-
tive to the story." Morrissey
added an "emphatic no" as to

the validity of the story of
April 7th.

Morrissey's only other re-
mark on liio story and Uie ath-
letic situation at Brandeis was
trtiat "Brandeis will have an
announcement on intercollegi-
ate basketball before the end
of the month of April."

In the interests of the Uni-
versity, Brandeis basketball
and the individuals concerned,
I will reserve comment until
after the finals of the National
Basketball Association Play-
offs — towards the end of
April.

Here and There

Next year's basketball sche-
dule is ready — 21 games and
two trips to New York. The
Judges will take on LIU, Hun-
ter, Pace, Brown. Bowdoin,
and holdovers from this year.
Gone are Boston College,
Rhode Island, St. Michael's and
Kings Point.

As for the spring sports, the
picture is extremely bright. We
may have a winner yet — best
bets are the tennis and base-
ball teams.

Once again I will venture
my major league picks — The
Yankees and the Phillies. And
the Mets might even make
ninth. The Red Sox have the
potential for eighth while the
Chisox and the Cards and Reds
might make a fight of it in
their respective leagues.

I was also sorry to hear of
the end of a fine career as
Hot Rod Kanehl has retired.
Kanehl was, perhaps, the great-
est Met of them all.

Brandeis Netman Fall

Stonehill, Middlebury

t*

By STEVE GOLDSTEIN

With senior left-hander Fred Marden doing yoeman's work on the pitcher's mound,
the baseball team opened the 1965 season by spliting four games, beating Stonehill and
Middlebury while losing to Northeastern and a strong Boston College "A.

Marden, who was hampered*
by a sore arm most of last sea-
son, picked up both of the vic-
tories including a sparkling
two-hit, 13 strikeout perform-
ance against Middlebury. The
other victory came in the
squad's abbreviated seven-in-
ning opener, a 5-4 victory over
Stonehill.

Sophomore Jim Boyce got
the starting nod from Coach
John Hughes in the team's
opening game. The righthander
responded with four fine in-
nings as he spread out three
singles and yielded only two
unearned runs. Rather than
risk any arm trouble for Boyce
on the cold afternoon, Hughes
removed him in the fifth with
the Judges trailing 2-1.

But Stonehill, taking advan-
tage of two walks, quickly
jumped on his successor Mar-
den for two runs to lead 4-1,
going into the sixth. Here
Stonehill starter Frank Mc-
Guire ran into control trouble
as he walked both freshman
George Frost and first-sacker
Gene McDonald with two outs.
Marden then sent Frost home
with a signle to right to nairrow
the margin to 4-2. Dave Rand
then lifted a towering pop-up
between home and the pitcher's
mound which fell untouched in
a mix-up. McDonald and Mar-
den, who were both running
with two out, scored easily.
Rand meanwhile wound up at
third, getting credit for what
might have been the shortest
double in Brandeis history.

With the score tied, the
Judges won the game in the
seventh when Stonehill pitcher
Elton Raw ley walked Bob
Plunkett with the bases loaded,
scoring Eric Epstein. The run
gave Brandeis a 5-4 lead which
Marden preserved by fanning
two of the last three batters.

\

ATHLETE OF THE WEEK
Fred Marden owns Judges' two
victories.

All told, he struck out eight in
his three inning relief stint.
Lose to BC

Against Boston College, it
was a different story as the
Eagles gained a 10-0 victory
over the Judges. Larry Lessard
started for Brandeis and was
plagued by bases on balls and
errors. BC picked up three runs
in the second on a homer by
Frank DeFelice and added five
more in the fourth to put the
game out of the Judges' reach.
Both Plunkett, the Judges' sec-
ond baseman, and Marden had
two hits for Brandeis.

Amidst a fine crowd abetted
by some 100 orphans, the
Judges split a morning-after-
noon doubeheader on Saturday,
losing to Northeastern, 10-4,
and edging Middlebury, 4-3.

Gene McDonald, ordinarily

the squad's first baseman,
started against Northeastern
and Marden faced Middlebury,
the defending Vermont State
champs.

McDonald got off to a shaky
start, yielding eight runs in the
first two innings. As a result,
the Judges were never really
in the ball game.

In the afternoon game, the
story was almost all Mr Mar-
den. The lefthander, backed up
by fine support, had a no-hitter
going into the ninth. Doubles
by Steve Firestone and Dale
Smith stopped the no-hitter, but
it didn't prevent him from get-
ting his second victory of the
young season. Marden and
Plunkett led an eight-hit as-
sault on Middlebury pitcher
Tom Clark with two hits apiece
and George Frost knocked in
two runs for the Judges.

by Freshman Bernie Rous of
Englewood, New Jersey, in his
singles debut. Playing in the
number two singles spot, Rous
and his big serve won handily,
6-4, 6-1. In first singles, Dave
Gerstel of Raleigh, North Caro-
lina, played scintillating ten-
nis in capturing his match
10-8, 6-4.

Playing at number three was
Gerry Katz of West Hartford,
Connecticut, a speedster of
Freshman basketball fame.
Katz was not his usual plucky
self on the courts Saturday;
rather he was somewhat list-
less in losmg, 8-6, 6-2. Nor did
Hicksville's Mike Seltz ex'hibit
the kind of spark and consis-
tency he is noted for, bowing
quickly 6-3, 6-2.

Co-captain Ethan Gluck of
Brooklyn, N.Y. had little dif-
ficulty in disposing of his op-
ponent in the number six posi-
tion, 6-2, 7-5. The rangy Man-
hattan Beach Boy literally
blasted his foe off the court on
several occasions with his re-
lentless attack. Long after
Gluck's victory, which gave
Brandeis a 3-2 lead, Dave Ne-
miroff of Croton-on-Hudson,
NY. was still on the court '\\\ a
see-saw three set match. The
team match appeared to be
deadlocked at 3-3 when Ne-
niiroff was a stroke away from
defeat . . . but wlien he opened
his eyes a few minutes later,
Coach Ray Ginger was aston-
ished to see that a suddenly
lion-hearted Brandeisian had
devoured his Christian guest by
the tedious score of 6-3, 3-6,
9-7.

The only epitaph to the three
doubles matches is that each
of our tandems performed in
truly ignominious fashion, per-
haps hoping that one of the
other two teams would win.
Such lethargic play denied
Brandeis even the satisfaction
of winning a set. Today Bran-
deis plays Harvard away and
meets MIT at home the day
after vacation. By that time
let's hope that the nightmare
in doubles will have vanished.

Good Guys, Grads,609's
Intramural Champions

By RIC IJSLANER

The basketball season finally came to an end at
Brandeis this week with the playinj? of the intramural
finals, pro<lucing what will probably be the only un-
defeated team that Brandeis*^ —

will see this year.

The Grads were the only five
to go undefeated. They first
toppled the Pistons 43-37 in the
semi-finals and then went on
to beat the Nads by 29 points.
Phil Serwer paced the B North
League champions in their vic-
tory over the Pistons with 16
points.

Other league winners were
the 609s in B South and the
Good Guys in the A League. It
was a long uphill fight for the
609's, who finished fourth in
regular season play. The Bites
had won the regular season
crown with a 28-26 play-off
win over Shapiro B to give
them a 9-1 record. But they
could not cope with the power-
ful 609's who defeated them
33-18 in the semi-finals. Nate
BrcMincr paced the Bites with 12
points while Ricardo Millet led
the 609's with 11.

In other B South semi-final
action, second-place Shapiro B
topped the third-place Neb-

bishes 30-27. The Nebbishes
finished with a 7-2 record for
the regular season; Shapiro B
was 8-2, counting the play-off
game.

The 609's, whose regular sea-
son mark was only 5-4, met
Shapiro B a week ago Monday
night for a full-court game. The
609's all but demolished the
all-freshman squad, winning by
a score of 65-44. Each squad
fouled out two players — the
two I'^ams together accounted
for 51 personal fouls. Nate
DiBona hit for 19 points for the
609's while teammate Steve
Coyle and Shapiro B's Dave
Litvak each tallied 15.

Over in the A League, the
Good Guys played true to form
and added the play-ofif cham-
pionship to their regular sea-
son laurels. Bill Rubin provided
almost half of the Good Guys'
50 points as they beat the Tro-
jans by eight. Rubin tallied a
hefty 23 points, hitting eight
field goals and six of 12 free
throws.

Four-Course Load Plan
Nears Faculty Approval

Adoption of a four-course load is virtually assured, Dean of Faculty Leonard
Levy told his Constitutional Law class Wednesday after studying the results of a re-
port by a faculty committee headed by Associate Dean Eugene Black. Final adoption
of the report, said to include the reduced course load, a change in the general education
system, and a generally revised curriculum awaits approval of the entire faculty.

The announcement came a day after a meeting of administration, faculty and 'which took place Saturday, April 17.

Washington Marchers
Protest Vietnam War

More than 15,000 students, including some 100 front
Brandeis, and a number of college professors picketed the
White House as a part of the March on Washington to
protest United States involvement in Vietnam. President
Johnson was at his ranch in Texas during the picketing,

group agreed that formal insti-
tutional channels of communi-
cation must l>e opened between
students and faculty to give
students effective consultation
on matters of educational pol-
icy and student life.

The committee consisting of
Dean of Students Kermit Mor-
rissey, representing the admin-
istration and Deans Levy and
Black. Drs. Stephen Berko. Jo-
seph Berliner, Stephen Gend-
zier, and Allen Grossman for
the faculty, and Frank Bloch,
Student Council President,
Treasurer Brian Marcus, Allen
Zerkin and Bill Kornrich, rep-
resentatives. Elliot Evans, EPC
chairman and Justice Co-Ed-
itor-in-Chief Paul S o I m a n
agreed to establish committees
to secure student consultation
on educational and environmen-
tal matters.

Subcommittee Established

One will be a joint subcom-
mittee of the Faculty and Coun-
cil Educational Policy commit-
tees. Dean Morrissey agreed to
the establishment of a subcom-
mittee of the Administrative
Committee to take up student
complaints on matters of liv-
ing conditions.

Dean Black's report was con-
sidered Thursday by the fac-
ulty EPC and now goes to the
entire faculty. To be adopted,
proposals must pass two con-
secutive faculty meetings,
which will take place on May
13 and 27. The report was the
result of a year-long study
made by Dean Black and Drs.
Lewis Coser, Joachim Gaehde,
Stephen Gendzier, Jack Gold-
stein, and Allen Grossman.

It includes a great alteration
of the curriculum, revision of
the general education system
and the reduction of the course
load to four, with an optional
fifth course at no extra cost.
The proposals, when approved
by the faculty, can go into ef-
fect by September 1966.
Student Consultation

Last week's three-way meet-
ing was a result of faculty in-
itiative, especially by Dean
Levy and Dr. Berliner, and
Council's action in quickly ap-
pointing student members.
Dean Levy hoped that they
would be representative of stu-
dent opinion and that the meet-
ing would make clear student
complaints and possible areas
of action. He commented that
the students' statements were
intelligent and reasonable. He
complimented them on their
careful and serious approach to
the meeting.

They discussed such propo-
sals as the establishment of stu-
dent and faculty committees in
each department to discuss
changes in concentration re-
quirements, a reduction in
course load, and changes in in-
dividual courses and the ad-
visor system, the use of clubs
Qs agent for educational revi-
sion in departments, and intro-
duction of the tutorial system

as practiced at Harvard.
Tripartite Government

Allen Zerkin brought up the
student hope for some form of
university government involv-
ing students in decision-mak-
ing.

All but one of the faculty
members felt that students
should be consulted on educa-
tional matters. All agreed that
students wanted to be told the
reasons for University policy
and have institutional arrange-
ments to express their views on
such policy.

Dean Levy regretted that
students had not been involved
in the discussions on this week's
proposed reforms. He said that
no students had approached
him until recently on these
matters. None had made sug-
gestions or brought petitions or
complaints to him. Dean Levy
refused comment on the past
work of the Council EPC and is
determined that students take
part in future talks.

This week's committee will
meet again whenever issues
outside the scope of the newly-
created committee arise.

Celtic Star
Named New

K. C. JONES

K. C. Jones
Hoop Coach

K. C. Jones, backcourt ace
of the Boston Celtics, was
named Brandeis' varsity bas-
ketball coach last Tuesday.
Jones will play one more sea-
son, his eighth, in the NBA be-
fore joining the Brandeis physi-
cal education staff for the 1966-
67 academic year.

An interim coach will be
named for next season to suc-
ceed Irving Olin, who returns
to devoting his efforts to his
post as director of physical
education and intercollegiate
athletics.

Jones, a 6' 1", 195-pound de-
fensive star, is 33 and the
father of four. He has been a
key factor in the Celtics* un-
precedented eight consecutive
"World Championships." K C.
played his undergraduate ball
at the University of San Fran-
cisco with Celtic captain Bill
Russell.

«|i in me early afternoon the
protestors marched to the Syl-
van Theater, on the grounds o£
the Washington Monument, to
hear speeches by Senator Ernest
Gruening, Democrat of Alaska
and one of the few Congres-
sional foes of American policy
in Vietnam, journalist I. F.

Stone, and Staughton Lynd, as-
sistant professor of history at
Yale.

After the speeches, the stu-
dents walked to the capitol and
presented a petition to Con-
gress calling for a cessation of
fighting in Vietnam. The whole
demonstration was initiated by
students for a Democratic So-
ciety and had the support of
numerous civil rights and left-
wing political organizations, in-
cluding several on the Brandeis
campus.

Across Pennsylvania Avenue
from the pickets, a dozen mem-
bers of the American Nazi par-
ty and a hundred members of
the Delaware Valley Citizens
for Victory Over Communism
staged a counter-demonstration.

The Justice Judged

Donald Sachs

One of the most persistent campus myths is that The Justice is the worst conceiv-
able college newspaper. In an effort to measure the extent of this myth, I launched a
survey of attitudes of undergraduates toward the paper. I was especially interested in
opinions about the news, features, and editorial sections.

The questionnaire for this survey was collected from 36 undergraduates who were
not members of the staff of the pai)er. In addition to questions about the paper, I asked
questions about class, major,4^

religion, and extra-curricular
life that would help me evalu-
ate the responses.

I found the campus divided
into three groups of about
equal size: one group likes the
Justice very much, the second
dislikes it, and the third is in
between. This division seemed
to exist in the opinions about
all aspects of the paper. There
were very few freshmen and
sophomores in the pro-Justice
group.

Most of the respondents were
dissatisfied with the news pol-
icy of the paper. 53% of the
respondents thought the paper
is not fair and 42% thought
that it was not accurate. Even
those people who agreed with
Justice editorial policy felt that
the reporting was not as accu-
rate and fair as desirable. How-
ever, most people found the
news section lively and inter-
esting.

Only 39% of the respondents
claimed to have read more than
half of the sports page, and an
additional 39% do not read it
at all. Those that did read it
did not seem too enthusiastic
about it. though this may be as
much the fault of the sports
teams as of the sports editor.

Of the general features ar-
ticles, those about campus af-

dent opinion drew the most
readers. On the other hand,
articles about other countries
or about politics drew rela-
tively few readers. Most re-
spondents seemed to like the
articles.

As part of the section of fea-
tures, I asked the respondents'
reaction to some of the opinion
expressed in the articles and
editorials of the paper. More
than 70% of those who an-
swered the item expressed sym-
pathy with the civil rights
movement. Interestingly, un-
derclassmen were more in sym-
pathy with the movement than
upperclassmen.

Very few disagreed with the
articles advocating a more lib-
eral campus or less inhibited
sexual mores. The majority
was split evenly between full
agreement and partial agree-
ment with these articles. These
two topics are very important,
since they have been the center
of much editorial comment dur-
ing the first semester.

Most of the respondents read
the movie and lecture, reviews,
but not very many read the re-
views of books, music, and art.
They found the accuracy and
fairness of the reviews gener-
ally mixed, but in general the]

fairs and those expressing stu- response was favorable.

The overwhelming number
of respondents believed that
the editorials of the Justice

body, carry little influence with
members of the administration,
and in no way help the student
position vis-a-vis the adminis-
tration. They believed this to
be true whether or not they
agreed with the editorials; they
felt their belief was based on
simple observation.

There were major splits in
response to whether the admin-
istration is acting in the larger
interests of the University, to
whether the facts justify at-
tacks against the administra-
tion, and to whether students
should demonstrate to get a
voice in administrative deci-
sions Of course, those who
agree with Ju.stice policy found
the paper right and the admin-
istration wrong whereas those
who disagreed found the oppo-
site to be the case.

It seems that opinion of the
Justice is based on whether the
values of the paper coincide
with those of the individual. If
one agrees with the paper, then
it is good; if one does not agree,
then it is not good. Tho.se who
support the paper see it as their

Marching on Washington

Throujrhout thi« semester, the Justict has held its
punches. We were tired of being harangued for cynicism
and negativism. We have tried to concentrate on what we
t«e consider to be the "bigger things" — Vietnam and civil
rights. We listened to those who felt that the campus
environment might improve if o- ^y we ceased fire. There
are some positive signs. Dean Levy's tri-partite committee
has suggested the formation of two sub-committees which
will link student opinion to the faculty Educational Poli-
cies Committee and the Administrative Committee- This
in surely a step in the right direction, if a belate<l one.

But, as we have often stressed, this university is still
Dr. Abram Sachar's show. Recent tenure incidents have
provided very upsetting evidence to this effect. But more
appropriately within the Justice's realm is Dr. Sachar's
pet panegyric, his speech on responsible dissent. That he
still sees fit to deliver this address (he pre.sented it at the
Baccalaureate ceremonies last spring, at the University of
Illinois this fall, and to the student convocation in October)
clearly illustrates his uncompromising negativism. In ligl^t
©f the latest repetition of the speech, we feel free to let
a little vitriol flow.

By now most of us have seen the report of President
Sachar's recent speech to the Mas.sachusetts Schoolmas-
ters' Club, on view on the Library bulletin board. Dr.
Sachar noted that **we are learning more about the de-
mography of the gutter." The Justice is in firm agreement
with Dr. Sachar on this point at least. And we thank him
for the object lesson.

We will not respond in kind to Dr. Sachar's
charges. But we do wish to register our disappointment at
Dr. Sachar's public statement of no-confidence in students.
His charges, with which we firmly disagree, were not out
of place in a speech addressed from one (however distant)
member of the Brandeis community to other members of
the same community. That speech was delivered last Octo-
ber. We can only consider it a breach of confidence, an<l
terribly insensitive to other parts of the Brandeis com-
munity, when Dr. Sachar presents the same points in a
si>eech outside the community. It is an act of arrogance
an<i bitterness that even the Justice would have better
taste than to commit.

We shall not use this space to outline our view of Dr.
Sachar's failings as a college president. Still we must note
that we can only have as much confidence in Dr. Sachar
as he has in us.

Part of the problem, in our view, is that we do not
know each other. President Sachar is so far divorced from
the student body that his credentials as an analyst of
students are seriou.sly in doubt. If Dr. Sachar would only
come back to the University he built and come to know
the pe4)ple who inhabit it, we think he'd discover that we
are not bad after all.

To go from the ridiculous to the sublime, we heard a
far more enlightening speech about stu<lents and the world
from Dr. Mareuse last week. Professor Marcuse, wh© is
as far from Dr. Sachar's "gutter" as any human can be,
noted that there is a new discontent stirring on university
campuses— a movement of dissatisfaction with the insti-
tutionalized hypocrisies, a movement which will not stand
tor the call«usness, dehumanization, and remoteness from
meaningful experience which characterize American soci-
ety and allow its obscenities in the South, in Vietnam, and
elsewhere It is a movement of which we are a proud part
in Its political, social and literary aspects. After Dr
Sachar s speech, we question where college presidents
stand. How many of them will have the courage to lead

n T-i' ",^^"cf '^ ^^^'^ "'^^ ^"<* hopeful spirit? Or will they
all, like Dr. Sachar and Dr. Gideonse (xf Brooklyn College
forever miss the iK>int and be part of the very set of evils
Ir<»m which we hope to cleanse our world?

and it

relations campaign
wasn't.

Granted, the March started
out with some major disadvan-
tages. It had to have a negative
rather than positive purpose. It
had to be against a Government
policy, rather than for Federal
intervention, and therefore it
was saddled with the psycho-

impression that the only oppo-
sition to the Administration
policy comes from left wing
bt ats.

In addition to the failures we
have already mentioned, we
were dismayed by the prevail-

..-.., .. ...,_ ^.-.»i..w- .^ ^„ „,^ ^iv.«t.jm vuaers inoi

logical and practical burdens of mg attitude of the participants, failing and

opposition that didn't affect the
lf)63 March. Also, the Viet Nam
March was of the nature of a
response to an emergency, and
therefore didn't admit of the
long term planning which
graced A. Philip Randolph's
March.

However, to move away from
the very self-conscious com-
parison of Marches, lundamen-
tal mistakes of intention and
judgment underlay the failure
of the Vietnam protest. First,
the base for the movement was
too narrow. The March was
not broadly represt-ntative; it
catered almost entirely to left
wing college students and some
there were a few adults: true,
socialist organizations. True,
there were a number of old
fashioned liberals present: true.
one of the speakers was a
United States Senator. But few
ob.servers accepted this: to most
of the nation — and to our Pres-
ident, who walks around with

which seemed to be that we
who gathered in the Sylvan
Theater at the base of the Wash-
ington Monument iiad access to
private information which
!-onuhow eluded the nation's
policy-makers. We had the
Tnitii, and if only Senator
Gruening (or Paul Potter)
could be put in charge of the
State Department (with I. F.
Stone running the C.I.A.), ev-
erything would be all right, all
problems would vanish. It was
as if we wire anticinating a
grand linale in which McGeorge
Bundy would personally con-
fess h.ow shocked he was to find
out that it was a civil war and
that the people of South Viet
Nam hate us. He would im-
mediately see to it that his
CIA. aides, who, of cour.se,
bad been his only source of in-
formation, would be fired.

It is disturbing that so much
of the protest seemed to be
puinised on the suppo.sed ig-

this time, and see no way of
winning such a war whether it
be guerrilla, "Korean," or nu-
clear. The United States is not
protecting Vietnamese Ircidoni,
democracy, or self-determina-
tion. Nor is it repelling in-
vaders (not only becau.^^e it is

will
the

we believe
continue to fail, to stop
Viet Cong, but because the war
is as much a civil war as a war
of invasion). Our national se-
curity is not being tested in the
jungles of Viet Nam.

We object, too, to the way
the war is being fought. Na-
palm, gas, and "lazy dogs" are
not objectionable simply be-
cause they kill men (after all,
that is the purpose ol a w.ir),
but because (a) they l.u- too
often seem to be killing the
wrong men, and (b) they p<Mnt
to an undercurrent (<f rjiiism.

We are opposed, then, to the
premises which led to our mil-
itary involvement in Viet Nam,
and we are opposed to the
course of events v.'hich seem to
be flowing therefrom. Wc want
our objection noted, we want it
understood, and we want it ac-
cepted. For our puriDoses. Wwv^,
the March on Washington was
more than a failure. It was a
harmful travesty.

radical political activity is in
itself, as well as in its objec-
tives, a means of liberating man
from oppressive society. Dr.
Marcuse concluded, "Politics
does something to you ... in
your interest, and in mine, keep
it up."

In one sense, there can be
nothing to quarrel with here.
Insofar as political action is a
source of the personal satisfac-
tion of, in Dr. Marcuse's words,
•'work for joy," it remains
wholly within the mdividual
sphere; the question is simply
whether or not such activity
satisfies this or that individual.
On the other hand, however,
the question of the actual sur-
passing of capitalism must also
be considered.

There are, as I see it, three
alternatives. Either the capital-
ist form will not be surpassed
at all or it will crumble in the
area of the 'Third Force' — the
underdeveloped nations — or
it will be surpassed within the
giant states themselves.

We have already seen the
probable consequences of the
first alternative; these conse-
quences are unacceptable. Nor
does it seem to me that the sec-
ond alternative presents a via-
ble way. The primary structure
of the underdeveloped nations,
such as the banana republics,
is that of economic dependence.

Because of this, even postrev-
olutionary society must at least
for a time, align itself with one
or another camp. Such align-
ment implies some degree of
militarization and its host ol
attendant evils.

The problem, therefore, de-
volves upon the giant states,
and it is precisely in this area
that objective criteria fail us.
Dr. Marcuse did not discuss
material needs; he discussed
the repressed needs of the "hu-
man essence." Such needs do
not, in themselves, have an ac-
tual existence; they have only
manifestations which may be
variously interpreted. The prob-
lem of the future of the spirit
in contemporary society has. by
definition, no clear precedent
and no clear criterion of analy-
sis. The problem of its configu-
rations and of its latent po.ssi-
bilities, therefore is finally de-
cided through faith.

I confess that I do not have
such a faith; the general spirit
seems to me to be not more
free than before, but rather
more docile. Dr. Marcuse obvi-
ously does have such a faith.
It seems likely that his enor-
mous contribution to this cam-
pus, and to the world at large,
rests as much upon his unbend-
ing will for change as upon the
lucidity, depth, and power of
his intellect.

prose piece published, entitled
The Pie Paradigm. It is quite
witty, and if he gets his glue-
pot working fast enough, it
shall receive a very novel lay-
out treatment.

Two pieces appear in trans-
lation: a story by Dr. Toman of
the Psychology department,
which was originally written in
German and translated by Har-
ry Zohn, and some translations
by Peter Gould from the work
oi Cesar Vallejo, a South Amer-
ican poet. All translations in-
volve problems for the reader,
but Dr. Toman's story involves
much fewer than Mr. Gould's
current enterprise. Oatmeal
Mountain (by Dr. Toman) is a
parable, or at least something
like one. It is a story from the
world of non-world, from the
awful world of Foe's poetry
and Kafka's short stories, but
written with the naievete of a
fairy tale. The story is delight-
fully weird, but the simplicity
of sentence structure and word-
ing detracts from this. For ex-
ample:

"Young fellow, what do you
suppose makes the oatmeal so
sweet? Once I bumped into a
corpse of which only the com-
pletely cleaned bones and a
bronze sword were left, and on
the sword there were Etruscan
runes"

This simplicity could be due to
translation. 1 doubt it.

Peter Gould's task in trans

In the Notes on Contributors,
the Folio says of Joachim
Schultz, "Joachim Schultz Joa-
chim Schultz Joachim Schultz
Joachim." I would repeat the
same thing about his poem. It
is perhaps incomprehensible,
but has some interesting plays
on words, constructions and
sounds. Enough said.

Anthony Bell, who is the Ed-
itor of Folio and who was gain-
ing the dubious reputation of a
non-literati, has proved the in-
correctness of all foul rumors by
the publication of an untitled
poem. This poem catches the
one minute moment of experi-
ence or imagination which may
make the world of a poem, and
relates it with the adeptness
which does bring it into the
world of poetic beauty, that is,
which makes the physical event
inseparable from the literary

event. The appearance of this
poem is a delightful going-
away present for both Mr. Bell
and the audience.

Lists are a bit bothersome
and boring, but I shall discuss
the last two contributing poets
and then be done with such de-
vices.

David McMurray is a one-
time Brandeis student who is
now living somewhere "out
there" and has submitted an un-
titled poem which is something
of a character sketch. It is one
of the weakest poems included
in this Folio, although it has
some undeniably good points.
Its images are sometimes rich
and poignant, for example, the
opening lines:
Mental is vagrant
And various as the sullen tack
Of played out sail craft in the

dead forenoon
Of a wind forgotten lake.
This is a fine image, unfortu-
nately ruined by its last line.
Much of the rest of the poem is
not quite clear, and although

(Continued on Page 6)

represented a wide range of musical styles and expression
in flute literature, which is^
mostly limited to baroque and

limited to
contemporary music. The di-
versity of instrumentation used
with the flute also contributed
to the program's interest.

Perhaps the most significant
performance of the evening
was the premiere of Michael
Ada mis' Prooptike for Flute
and Percussion. The piece com-
bines many beautiful sounds
and silences, creating increas-
ing suspense and then return-
ing to its original calm. The
percussion instruments were
used in both extended resonat-

employed percussive aspects of
the flute obtained by varied
methods of longuing and key
pressure. They sounded neither
experimental nor shocking, but
extremely appropriate. I hope
that we may be able to hear
this piece once more this year
before Mr. Adamis leaves Bran-
deis.

Miss Kogan played Mozart's
Concerto in D Major, K.314,
with technical lightness and ac-
curacy and pure tone. Her
phrasing was lyrical, using a

ing periods and in predeter- great deal of tempo rubato, but

mined periods. Except for a
snare drum and a triangle
(which may assume the pitch
of any other instrument), they
were all of determinate pitch.
The most unusual instrument
was a set of five antique cym-
bals, which was used most ef-
fectively. Peter Kogan, Miss
Kogan's brother and a student
at the Juillard School of Music
in New York, served as accom-
panist. The flute part, which
included a section for piccolo,

m good taste. She was accom-
panied by m e m b e r s of the
Brandeis chamber orchestra.
The program began with J. S.
Bach's Sonata in E minor for
Flute and Continuo. Although
the sonata is often played with
only harpsichord accompani-
ment, Miss Kogan used both
harpsichord and 'cello, as the
sonata was probably played in
the eighteenth century. The
continuo part is played on the
'cello and in the bass of the
harpsichord, while the harmo-
nies indicated by the continuo
line are played in the harpsi-
chord's upper register. Unfor-
tunately, the added strength in
the bass overbalanced the un-
folding flute line and detracted
from the esthetic enjoyment of
the piece. Elaine Camperono

usually not o-bserved; it is usu-
ally accepted as the world of
the author himself or rejected
completely for its obvious in-
feriorities. Perhaps a better
question to ask of Mr. Gould's
translations is, do they come
across as good poetry? The an-
swer is an emphatic yes, and it
is heartening to see that a stu-
dent has produced a poetic
translation, when any lit major
can attest to the forty thou-
sand illiterate translations he
has read.

Mr. Gould also includes an
introduction to Valleja's poetry
and the problems of transla-
tion. The general introductory
notes are quite helpful, but the
section which deals with the
"problems encountered" is un-
fortunately aloof. Mr. Gould
assumes the tone of a ninety-
year-old translator faced with
the task of correcting all the
world's bad translations in one
fell swoop; a tone which, need-
less to say, makes Mr. Gould
look very silly. But the end

is very fine.

Po«ms, Recruited and Not

Jeremy Cott's poem, "Nights
in Milan," is one of the better
poems in this edition of Folio.
It is very reminiscent of tiie
style of Prufrock, and 1 ofler
here its first stanza:
Blind. 1 met her in Milan,
My rock chair wheeling, my

stone chair creaking
Like an old horse cart in the

streets
It came up to the opera house

at ten.
The poem does something
which Prufrock does not do —
it plays very consciously with
the use of tense and time se-
quences; it is written in a kind
of poetic stream of conscious-
ness, and it makes a very strong
impression.

Mr. Cott also has had a short

concert could have been en-
joyed if only the performers
had made more of an effort
to reach their audience, either
by explaining the physical set-
up of the pieces, or simply by
choosing more interesting

works.

A few listeners made more
of an effort to reach out to the
performers, observe their in-
terpretations of score, and
above all, avoid the filtering
out and sensor ing process
which our nervous system us-
ually imposes on us when a
combination of sounds does not
meet preconceived require-
ments for volume, harmony
and beauty. This attitude is
most easily achieved by em-
pathizing with the performers,
actually realizing that they are
experiencing all the emotions
which they wish to bring to
the audience. Mr. Tudor's con-
cert will be di.scussed from
this point of view.

Mr. Tudor was trained as a
classical organist, is reputed to
be a brilliant pianist, and has
for some time been associated
with John Cage. He opened
the evening with "Music for
Piano :ii^ 4." electronic version,
by Toshi Ichiyanagi, a young
composer with considerable
fame in Japan. The score calls
for .sound sustained by fnc-
tional noi.'^es and amplified by
contact microphones. Mr.
Tudor made use of sponges,
razor blades and other objects

bbed against the strings of
or knocked against the
frame. Mr. Tudor's perform-
ance was notable for its lack
of dramatic gimickry, estab-
lishing a serious tone for the
piece, while producing an
enorrnous range of sounds
which could perhaps be best
appreciated by listening with
closed eyes and permitting a
free flow of visual associations
to enhance the auditory me-

lange.

The second piece, "Music for

noises, etc. Different scores
were assembled by each per-
former by random superposi-
tion of transparencies and
played in unison for a speci-
fied length of time (20 min-
utes). Unfortunately, the var-
iety of sounds produced was
limited, and the physical as-
semblage had lost its novelty
for most of the audience long
before the time limit had
elapsed.

"Pandorasbox" for bandon-
eonpiece, by Brazillian Mau-

ties. The subtleties of his facial
expressions contrasted nicely
with his elaborate arm and
body movements, sustaining
interest in a pitxre with limited
auditory range.

"Action Music for Piano,
Book I (1962)", by Alvin Lu-
cier, was performed on two
pianos by Mr. Tudor and Mr.
Lucier. As this piece de-
veloped, alert listeners realized
that each performer was play-
ing the same pages of music in
different orders. It was thus
possible to observe the differ-
ences in interpretation which
the two players gave to the
written score. This piece was
most successful in drawing the

dent at the New England Con-
servatory. The sonata is one of
a group of three (the others are
for Violin and Piano and 'Cello
and Piano) written in 1915,
three years before Debussy's
death. He had planned to com-
pose a group of six for various
instruments. The piece is not
in traditional sonata form, but
has form, harmony, and instru-
mentation characteristic of De-
bussy and later adopted by
other composers. The instru-
ments often play in unison, cre-
ating unusual tone color, and
several times the flute contin-
ues a viola note with no per-
ceptible break. The viola some-
times produces a nasJil sound
by playing ponticello, or "on the
bridge." In sum, the concert
combined fine performance
with excellent music.

the possibility of decent living

there is an expanding vocabu-

macy of being one's own cur-

Not blowing your cool:

Crazy Henry, with whom I
roved the sultry savanahs of
my country town when but a
child, has given in. Evt n
though he doesn't think so, he
has. A loner, of wild fancy and
afTable wit, he used constantly
to tease the world, kick it in
the shin and then feed it sugar.
He wanted to make things
happen — albeit he wanted
also to see palpable results
happen from his actions. Quite
the adventurer, anyhow, and
with a good style.

large rural state college last
week, 1 found him mid boister-
ous jokers, wearing a frater-
nity jacket, building a float
for the spring queen pageant.
"Henry," I cried, "What's

come over

And he explained, "all ac-
tivities are absurd, but that
frat life, its amusing, and ev-
ery now and then for a rral
horror show, 1 set these fools
doing something especially
foolish " See, he said, he did
what they did too, t)ut he knrw
the score and was entrrtainrd
by the act ol participation. He
could leave and function in
quit(^ other society than they
could, who didn't know the
score. I don't agree with his
defense of his cool, but my
reasons are nice lc>gic in favor
of integrity. Maybe Henry's
way is the ticket when there
are no more decent things to
do.

And now, everybody 1 see,
every righteous driver, every
garbage man, every Dean,
seems as if he might just be an
ardent hipster, disguised and

goad metaphors »noak in some-
tiinc'S it is littered by dead im-
ages of death — of "clay pot
plants . . . dying in the room,"
of "burnt out match sticks/
On t h e floor." and "Of
crumpled undone verse."

Robert Liss also has four po-
ems included, which vary from
good to very poor. The first
poem, "Winter Morning," is
perhaps his best, and includes

in it a magnificefit description
of the sun rising on a frozen
lake. The limits of its world
are well defined, and remain
consistent throughout. His last
poem .'To My Wife." is also of
some merit, staying closely
within the sonnet form and
working with clear images
which are unified in the final
couplet. Mr. Liss should stick
more often to poems of this
type, for when he enters into a
world of thought and few de-
scri|)lions, his poetry becomes
weak and often trite, as "The
New Order" and "Lines" show
too clearly, the latter of which
is quite trivial. Mr Liss also
suflers from some problems in
metrics, which are best solved
in the sonnet "To My Wife."

Alan Gin.>berg's poem was
not available before press time,
but it is certainly the best poem
ever written.

Dr. Toman shares with other
"fellows in glory" who have

contributed prose to this issue
of Folio. Jib Fowles, who con-
tributed a short story in the
last issue, has far surpassed this
other work by a story entitled
Stronger Than Any Genie. This
is a delightful story, and ex-
hibits great stylistic ability.
Through the eyes of a third per-
son narrator, we get to see the
world through the eyes of a fe-
male college student, without
realizing that this is happening
until we have complete the
story. Mr. Fowles is in supreme
control of the reader.

In addition, nearly the com-
plete text of I Shall Take the
Clouds Away, by Richard Bur-
gin, has been printed. Portions
of this manuscript have ap-
peared in the Justice Literary
Supplement, but in its entirety
it is much richer, and loses
much of the stylistic rawness
which seemed to creep into its
disjointed form Mr. Burgin, in
any case, could use a bit of
stylistic development, but the
tones of delight, melancholy
and elation all shine clearly
through this short story. One
can see a certain spark in his
writing, and we can expect
more mature work to appear
in the future.

Congratulations to the Folio
for an issue of more-than-to-be-
expected quality.

tyrannical administration; those
who oppose it see it as an en-
emy to the peace and security
of the campus.

Evidence for this assertion
comes from the difference
between pro- and anti-Justice
groups with regard to the ac-
curacy and objectivity of the
news stories. Criteria for news
stories are absolute; a story is
either objective or slanted.
However, 86% of the anti- Jus-
tice group felt the stories are
slanted, versus only 36% of the
pro-Justice group.

Music

(Continued from Page 5)
empatliizing listener and ob-
server into tlie excitement
shared by t li e performers
themselves, a quality much to
be praised in a modern work
of this type. Mr. Tudor has
frequently performed Mr. LrU-
cier's piece, particularly last
year on tiis extensive Jai>anese
taur, using trmn one to four
piano«.

The evening was concluded
with the most ambitious "Com-
position for Two Performers
(1964)" by the American com-
poser Frederic Rzewski. Glass
sheets were placed over the
piano strings, resting on con-
struction boards. Rosin was
liberally sprinkled over the
glass to provide a frictional
surface upon which to scrape,
knock and roll various metal-
lic, plastic, rubber and stone
objects. Each performer lis-
tened carefully to the other

and then resiK)nded to his
sounds according to the sym-
bols on his score, which sijeci-
fied imitation, opposition, simi-
larity with variations, or in-
dependent improvisation. Al-
ready prerecorded on tape
were 1) performances by each
of the players responding to
one another and 2) perform-
ances by each player respond-
ing to his initial performance.
A third player "played" the
tapes by controlling their re-
lative volumes, and the finale
then consisted of Mr. Tudor
and Mr. Lucier once more fol-
lowing the score and respond-
ing to all four previous perfor-
mances. Needless to say, the
sounds were highly amplified
and projected out through the
several speakers arrayed
around Schwartz Hall. The

effect was nothing short of a
"total sound" experience, in
which it is quite impossible to
a.ssimilate everything indivi-
dually, and yet quite ix)ssible
to listen to the integrated
whole in a manner which can
evoke anything from a purely
auditory sensory thrill to a
synesthetic delight involving
complementary inputs from
several of the senses at once,
all stimulated by the extraordi-
nary quality and quantity of
soTind vibrations impinging
upon tiie body's various recep-
tors.

Recommended for avid em-
pathizers is the John Cage —
Alvin Lucier concert, tomor-
row evening at the Rose Art
Museum.

Dr. Sachar's characterization
of the library as a "Shangri-la

Karl Marx and Adam Smith

meaningless. Das Kapital and

quietly together, but I doubt
that Adam Smith and Karl

reveling in their freedom to

Marden Leads Judges
Against Clark Nine

By ROD KANEHL

The Judpres baseball nine travelled up to Worcester
this at'ternoon to play Clark University. They defeated
Lowell Tech 11-6 but lost to Tufts, 15-1, and to Colby 5-2

in last week's action. 4,^

Pitcher Fred Marden was
slated to pitch a g a i n st the
Clarkies. The ace lefthander is
the Judges' leading batsmen
and pitcher.

The 21 -year-old senior set

numerous records a few weeks
ago when he mowed down 26
Cadets in a 3-3 tie with Nor-
wich. The southpaw fireballer
struck out 20 batters in regula-
lation play and added another
six in three extra innings. Mar-
den gave up only one earned
run but was plagued by six
Brandeis errors.

In his other start, against
Tufts last week, Marden was on
the short end of a 15-1 decision.
Fred gave up only one earned
run, just throe hits, struck out
11, but was destroyed by 11
Brandeis errors. The Judges
managed five 1\ i t s including
three by George Frost, a double
by Marden and a triple by Bob
Phmkett.

Against Lowell Tech last
Saturday, Pitcher Jim Boyce
led tile Judges to an 11-6 tri-
umph with his arm and bat.
The righthanded soph had two
hits including a double, three
runs batted in, scored two rims
and pitched nine strong innings
to win his first game.

Lowell Tech took an early
1-0 lead on a home run by Al

Klayton. The Judges scored two
in the second on a double
by Boyce, a single by Eric Ep-
stein and a wild pitch. Tech
tied it up in the fourth on a
home run by Barry Eldridge
but the Judges went out in
front in the bottom of the
fourth with two runs on four
walks, a single, an error and
a passed ball.

Brandeis added two more in
the sixth and five in the eighth.
Big guns for the Judges were
Marden with two hits. Gene
McDonald with one hit, two
rbi's and two stolen bases, and
Boyce.

Colby defeated Brandeis,
5 2, last Tuesday as the Mules
overcame a 2-0 first inning
deficit. Boyce went all the way
for Brandeis and suffered the
defeat. The Judges posted their
two runs in the first on a dou-
ble by Dave Rand and a home
run by Marden

On the Basepaths

Marden is the Juges' leading
hitter with a .387 everage. He
also owns a 1.50 earned run
average and a 2-1-1 record with
63 strikeouts in 36 innings . . .
Boyce is batting .353 and has a
2.57 era . . . Brandeis has also
committed 37 errors, and is
fielding at an .889 clip . . . Next
home game against BU May 12.

Netmen Lose to Colby;
Beat BentleVj Babson

By COOT VEALE

Bernie Rous led his Firandeis tennis team to a 9-0
victx>ry over a weak Bentley team, and two days later
proceded to vanquish one of the best players in New
England to help the Judges de-^^

feat Babson, 5-4. But Rous
fourth straight singles victory
without a defeat, a 4-6, 6-2,
6-1 decision over Colby's num-
ber one man, was not enough
to sustain his teammates who
went on to lose their second
5-4 match of the season.

In addition to Rous, the only
other undefeated Brandeisian
in singles is Ethan Gluck, who
registered the most convincing
triumph of the Colby match,
6-3, 6-1. The lean leftly has
this year coupled consistency
with only a modicum of reckless
abandon and has not allo\yed
even one set to elude his grasp.
Once known as the Tommy
Bolt of tennis for his temper
tantrums, Gluck is now a re-
laxed competitor and never
wilts under pressure. In his
fourth year of varsity competi-
tion, he has become a seasoned
veteran who is ever the experi-
menting architect of new and
untried shots.

The Colby match, an away
affair that featured an exciting
eight hour bus ride interrupted
by dinner at The Silent Woman
Restaurant, was played in gale

like clay courts. A clutch

netted the score at 3-3; then
Rous and Katz lost at number
one doubles, putting Colby one
match away from victory. It
appeared that Brandeis would
tie the score as the stale
doubles team of Gluck and
Dave Nemiroff found them-
selves ahead 5-3, 40-love, in

the first set. But this schizo-
phrenic pair managed to blow
triple set point and eventually
the match, 7-5, 6-4. . . . The
inappropriateness of this par-
ticular loss was later magnified
as Brandeis' most successful
two man team. Art Alschuler
and Dave Gerstel, played ex-
emplary doubles in winning
6-4, 4-6. 7-5.

The Babson match was char-
acterized by a far more im-
portant victory for Gerstel and
Alschuler. In winning his con-
test, Rous had surprised his
top-flight opponent, Chris
Brooks, as well as Coach Ray
Ginger, who awarded Bernie a
purple-heart for prevailing des-
pite cramps in both legs and a
plethora of blisters on his right
hand. Mike Seltz then out-
lasted his retrieving, lobbing
rival to give Brandeis a 4-2
lead in the match To set the
stage for the decisive coup, the
team quickly lost its first two
doubles matches by identical
scores of 6-4. 6-2. The outlook
was bleak after Gerstel and
Alschuler had lost their first
set. Bill Greenspan, a Babson
tennis alumnus, kept mocking
the Brandeis team by remind-
ing them of the 9-0 ignominy
of a year ago. But Greenspan's
glee changed to awe as he wit-
nessed one after another magi-
cal shot off the bat of Altschuler,
as well as fine serving by
Gerstel, to give the Judges a
2-6, 6-2, 6-1 victory and the
match.

The announcement of the addition of K.C. Jones to the Brandeis community in
1966 was a welcome surprise. Perhaps the University has finally realized the needs
of intercoIlej?iate teams and will continue a policy initiated last week which will once
more raise Brandeis to a respectable level in varsity competition.

In a personal interview last week, Jones outlined some of his ideas concerning

his decision to join the Bran-4i .

deis phys. ed staff in 1966.

Jones said his coaching phil-
osophy will be based on play-
ing defense. "My first move
will be to instill a desire to
play real good defense, and let
the offense take care of itself."

"Everyone loves to shoot, but
I get real pleasure playing de- 1 said.

fense and holding the big man ;

on the opposition," K. C. added.
Judging from his spectacular
performance against Jerry
West in the NBA Champion-
ship final game, K. C. has a
pretty sound philosophy.

Casey, as he is known to
every basketball fan, loves to
play golf in the off-season and
has spent several summers at
Coach Red Auerbach's basket-
ball camp.

Jones will be the first Negro
to coach at a predominantly
white college.

The 33-year old resident of
Framingham will play one
inore year with the World
Champion Celtics before com-
ing to Brandeis. This arrange-
ment is similar to the one Bob
Cousy had with Boston Col-
lege.

Jones' duties at Brandeis
have yet to be fully defined.
K. C. said he will help out with
the intramural program as well
as coach basketball..

K. C. said that he had wanted
to get into coaching on a col-
lege level right away. "It
seemed like a far-fetched idea
a couple of years ago," Jones,
stated, "but right now I'm very !
happy to have this opportu- •
nity." I

High Spirits in Lacrosse;
Sgan Wants Varsity Team

By RIC USLANER

Saha Amarasingham, co-manager of the lacrosse
team, said Friday that the 1965 team "is the most highly
spirited team I've seen in my four years at Brandeis."

Associate Dean of Student s4» — ^_

Mathew Sgan, coach of the
team, has called the attitude of

the players "excellent."

The lacrosse team's record is
1-3 at present, but Sgan feels
that "we ought to be able to
win one or two of our remain-
ing games." This is the second
year of lacrosse at Brandeis.

Last year the team was 0-4.
The squad has not yet received
varsity status, but Sgan hopes
that the team will be given that
recognition next year.

The team centers around
Mike Schaeffer. Bill Moody,
Dan Estow and Sandy Perlo.
The outstanding freshmen on
the team include Eliot Cohen,
Frank Brooker, Bobby Frank,
and Tony Filoso. Sgan stressed
that most of the players, espe-
cially the freshmen, had never
played lacrosse before coming
to Brandeis. He said that the
players have been "very good
in learning now skills."

Sgan said that the main as-
sets of the team were "team
coordination and Mike Schaef-
fer at goal." On the debit side,,
he said, "Lack of confidence in
stick handling causes us not to
shoot as much as we should. '

The next home game will be
Friday afternoon at 4:00

against the University of Con-
necticut.

•'I hope to establish a good
team here, but of course we'll
run into the problem of a new
coach with a new team," Jones
said. K. C. mentioned that he'll
probably "hit the road" in an
attempt to bring qualified ath-
letes to Brandeis. "I have con-
tacts in San Francisco, Boston
and elsewhere," he added.

As for the interim coach,
no decision has yet been made.
Next year's coach will step
down in 1966 to become fresh-
man coach when Jones takes
over.

Mr. Olin will return to his

1 post as director of physical

I education and athletics after

I two grueling years as varsity

coach. Olin gave the pressures

of his dual role as coach and

director as his reason for bow-
ing out.

Perhaps now that the long-
awaited change in Brandeis
athletics has been initiated,
Brandeis will again command
the respect of the sporting com-
munity. AD Olin will now
have the time to devote his
energy to strengthening the
athletic program at Brandeis.

With an expansion of ath-
letic facilities and a revitalized
administration interest. Olin
should be able to establish an
outstanding physical education
and intercollegiate program at
Brandeis.

I hope that the hiring of
Casey is just the first in a num-
ber of new steps regarding the
athletic program here. Action
has been long overdue and this
is an excellent step in the right
direction. Jones is a capable
and talented ballplayer. I'm
sure he will prove his merits
as a coach. My congratulations
to President Sachar. Dean
Morrissey. Mr. Olin. Casey and
all those involved. Perhaps this
past year was not a complete
loss.

Forty Left Roomless
Ln LLo using Mix- Up

Forty upperclass women were left with no place to
live next year after the confusion of room drawing? two
weeks ago. The administrators and students who ran the
drawing this year are still trying to unravel what actually
did happen and to work out arrangements for next year.

Head of the Student Council Housing committee Allen
Zerkin said that women who

filed late for permission to live
off campus next year would
probably be allowed to move
off. He discounted the possibil-
ity that an empty dorm in
Ridgewood with 24 places
would be opened to undergrad-
uate women, and stated that
senior singles and possibly
some of the last numbers that
drew would be redrawn.

When asked for an explana-
tion of the room shortage Mrs.
Vivian White said that stu-
dents "shouldn't have the auda-
city to think that they can
run the University, or even
part of it." She went on to
cite some of the errors which
she said the students made. Ac-
cording to her all the residence
counselors in one dormitory
had been moved to one
floor, and some of next years'
sophomores had been allowed
to draw before some of next
years' juniors. Mrs. White re-
fused to comment on the
doubling of singles in the
Castle, Allan Zerkin stated that
these changes had been made
by Buildings and Grounds prior
to the drawing and not by the
Housing Committee. The ex-
planation she gave for the
shortage of rooms was that the
Housing Committee had allow-
ed too many people to sign up
for Wien and transfer room-
mates, Hilling places with
phantoms who won't be here.

Allan Zerkin has a different
view of the situation. He said
that his committee had planned
on ten requests each for Wien
and transfer students, making a
total of twenty, and that in
actuality there had been only
seven requests for transfer
roommates and twelve for
Wiens making a total of 19

1 a
Valedictory Address during
Sunday's Commencement.

Dr. Sachar told a Justice
editor last night that the "stu-
dents should have their say,"
and that Baccalaureate was the
appropriate place for this. He
pointed out that Sunday's
schedule is a crowded one, in-
cludng the awarding of eleven
honorary degrees and the dedi-
cation of the Spingold Theatre
Arts Center.

Last year's commencement
included t h e presentation of
nine honorary degrees as well
as several addresses, although
no buildings were dedicated.

Mr. Bresler told the Justice
last nigiit that Dr. Sachar had
explained tlie change to him as
an effort to avoid a repitition
of the "embarrassment " at last
Junes Commencement. Dr.
Sachar was apparently refer-
ring to the valedictory address
of Br. Bialer, which included
mucli criticism ol University
policies. When asked to com-
ment about this, Dr. Sachar
said tile reason for the change
was tlie crowded Sunday sched-
ule.

Dean of Students Kermit
Morrissey pointed out last
night "I don't think this is
much of an issue." The Dean
added, "I think the whole no-
tion of the Valedictorian is an-
tiquated. Few schools maintain
this practice."

There will probably be "stu-
dent participation' (i.e. student
speeches) at the luncheon fol-
lowing Baccalaureate, although
this is "still under discussion,"
according to Mr. Morrissey.

Mr, Bresler told the Justice
that he is opposed to the
changes announced by Dr.
Sachar. In addition to his
speech, he felt that a student
recognized for his academic ex-
cellence should be allowed to
give the traditional Valedictory
address.

There will be an urgent
Senior class merting to dis-
CU.S.S the valedictorian situa-
tion tomorrow night at 8:00.
The place will be posted in
the Mailroom tomurrovv.

Action is planned in the
form of a petition denying
the cla.s.s reunion pledge
fund and the class gift.
Other suggestions will be en-
tertained. All seniors are in-
vited to attend, if only for a
moment, in order to register
their positions.

Bar on Students
Not Paying SAF
Voted By Council

In a major policy decision,
Student Council passed a reso-
lution Wednesday, outlining
their plan to bar those students
who do not pay the Student Ac-
tivities Fee from attending
most SAF sponsored events.

The full resolution is as fol-
lows: "Resolved: that next
year, students who have not
paid the Activity Fee will not
be allowed to attend most SAF
events. For the remaining
events, they will be allowed en-
trance only by paying u desig-
nated admission fee." Under
present Council policy, those
students who do not pay the
SAF may attend any event by
paying an admission charge.

The result of several weeks
of planning and di.scu.ssion, the
new resolution is designed pri-
marily to insure prompt collec-
tion of the Activity Fee this
summer.

The vote to adopt the reso-
lution was 11-1-1. with Phil
Saperia, '68, abstaining, and
Brian Marcus, '67, voting
against. Council President
Frank Bloch, '66, went on rec-
ord favoring the proposal. Mar-
cus stated that he believed it
"philosophically wrong to keep
students out of lectures and
events which are part of their
education." He advocated giv-
ing those who had not paid the
SAF the chance to pay for ad-
mi.ssion to any SAF event.

In conjunction with this res-
olution, Council pa.ssed a sec-
ond motion, to make all budget
allocations dependent on the
percentage of students who pay
the SAF. Under this measure,
the Budget Committee was in-
structed to make appropria-
tions on the basis of full col-
lection of the fee. All alloca-
tions thus made would then be
cut next term by the percent-
age of the fee not collected. The
plan was designed to try to .se-
cure full collection of the SAF
by placing direct financial pres-
sure on the clubs and organiza-
tions.

In other action. Council
voted to include the N S M
among the groups eligible to
receive any money left over
from this year's budget.

of the
cour.se which may be
free of charge, and the
introduction of minor fields of
concentration. The faculty will
vote on the proposals Thurs-
day.

According to the plan, stu-
dents in good standing who
wish to take a free fifth course
will need the con.sent of their
faculty advisers. The require-
ment for graduation will, if
the plan goes through, be
lessened to 32 semester courses.
The new recommendations
for General Education require-
ments may be met in either of
two ways. The first option will
be the present system of four
semesters of Humanities, four
semesters of Social Science,
three or four semesters of Nat-
ural Science (Chemistry 15a
counts as two semesters) and
two semesters of Creative
Arts. The second option will
include the choice of a minor
field of concentration in a de-
partment outside of the stu-
dent's school of major concen-
tration. For those choosing
this option, the General Educa-
tion requirements will be cut
in half. The minor field of con-
centration requires six .semes-
ters of courses in the chosen
departJiienl.

English Composition will
remain a requirement for all
freshmen, and more faculty
members would teach it. Three
years of a foreign language will
also be required under the new
plan, but first year courses will
not count as credits towards
the degree unless they are
taken as a .second language.

In the School of Humanities,
Philo.sophy I will no longer be
an option for the first year
requirement Philosopliy H and
Humanities 5, 10 and 12 have
been added to the list of courses
fulfilling that requirement. The
second year requiretnent re-
mains unchanged.

Public Relations

We feel that President Sachar continues his develop-
ment and protection of university resources even at some
threat to a free academic environment. By establishing
a precedent of having no valedictory speaker at Gradua-
tion Exercises, he lessens the possibility of embarrassing
criticism being voiced before the large, distinguished and
funded audience. But this is not an impractical step from
his i>oint of view.

We recognize that he is justified in protecting his
public from misplaced harangues by untactful students.
But we feel that by pre-emptively abolishing the institu-
tion of the valedictorian he accomplishes his end in an
unfortunate manner. It is not unreiisonable to expect some
diversity of views at such an occasion as graduation.

We can look at Dr. Sachar's decision in a double
Hcn^e. Were the student-administration situation as tense
now as a year ago, then Dr. Sachar is straining it con-
siderably further by this pronouncement. If, on the other
hand, the situation is more comfortable, then we wonder
why he has made such a provocatory decision this time.
It seems that the President is again curtailing the ex-
pression of the student |>erspective in his nurturing of the
Brandeis image.

Lighter Burden

This week's educational report will mark, if adopted
in its major ]M)ints, the most comprehensive curriculum
change in the University's history. It provides a greater
opportunity for depth and diversity in study through the
Jour-course load and the major-minor general education
option. It will also give the student a better chance for
self-education because of the greater "academic leisure"
for which the plan provides. We support its adoption.
However, we regret that students were not brought into
the discussions on the plan and hope that future studies
will involve students.

Our only other qualification hinges on the implementa-
tion of the report's proposals. Many teachers may be
tempted by the four-course load to increase the amount
of work in their courses. This would be detrimental to
those, especially science and pre-med students, who, be-
cause of their many requirements, will still some-
times have to take five courses. Students should co-
operate with Council and its Educational Policies Com-
mittee, which will form groups in each department to
consider individual courses and concentration require-
ments.

Meet the Pres

President Abram Sachar should be in more direct
contact with student opinion. The disparity in administra-
tive and student thought frequently results from the
cross-purpose of their dialogue and from the indirectness
of that dialogue. The recent formation of faculty-student-
administration committees to study all aspects of univer-
sity life does not solve the very important problem of
continued lack of communication between President
Sachar and the student body.

Earlier this year there were two meetings between
leaders of student organizations and the President. In the
question and answer period at the end of the second
meeting, both camps were forced directly to consider their
opinions in the context of each other's reasonable presence.
The President unfortunately kept the question period
brief, but what there was yi it was mutually beneficial
and informative, if it was not always pleasant. In the
flesh, Dr. Sachar did not give the apixjarance of being
that sly rascal of a parent surrogate, a role with which
he is sometimes beatified or damned among students.

In the fall, a schedule of similar meetings should be
instituted to supi)lement the recently formed committees.
There should be at least one meeting a month. We are
assured that members of the administration, including
President Sachar, understand that more direct channels
of communication would eliminate misconceptions held by
both sides and would foster increased mutual understand-
ing.

The suggested four course i)lan, as outlined in the report of the Committee on
General Education is, for the most part, a sound idea. However, I feel that it contains
several basic flaws which make it potentially unfair to some students and self-defeat-
ing in its aims. The adoption of this plan by the faculty would be, I believe, very detri-
mentiil to the entire concept of a liberal arts or general education at Brandeis.

To begin with, the plan is unfair to concentrators in highly specialized fields,

such as the sciences. Its adop- ^blem is the optional fifth ments. although the philosophic
tion would require either the course. This is an unworkable or rhetorical commitment to
elimination of most of the few solution for two reasons. First, general education remains . . .

Letters to the Editor

Cutting Up

To the Editors:

The recent cases of severe
beatings and attacks on Bran-
deis students by Waltham in-
truders demand that we estab-
lish a standard policy for all
instances of Waltham boys on
the Brandeis campus at night.
I have talked with Security
and established the following:
— you cannot judge that the
intruder is "just walking" and
let him go.

Last night (May 8) a group
of us in North Quad stopped
one of about seven running
town boys at 12:30 a.m. We
decided that he was drunk but
not dangerous, and soon let
him go. That was a mistake.
On the other side of the cam-
pus fence, the boy's friend
pulled a knife swearing he
would "cut us up," before our
growing numbers changed his
mind. Soon we found out that
Security had been looking for
these same boys. They had
earlier tried to pick a fight in
East Quadrangle and threaten-
ed a boy outside Cholmon-
deley's. Now that I have made
this mistake, I hope that others
won't.

What To Do?

If you see a town boy on
campus at night you cannot
assume that he is all right. His
very presence is illegal. He is
not observing the new "No
Trespassing" signs posted at the
campus boundaries. Call Secur-
ity through the switchboard,
TW 4-6000, give your name
and room number and tell him
where the intruder is. If you
are a boy, call for others in
your dorm. Go down, ask
politely where the intruder is
going but in all cases detain
him until Security arrives. Six
months ago, Waltham boys felt
it was all right to be in Hamil-
ton Quad in broad daylight,
yelling "Brooklyn kikes." Now,

Waltham must be made to real-
ize that any time they enter
this campus at night and with-
out a purpose they will be held
by Security and cooperating
students.

New York Cops
Am I Goldwater advocating
"an end to violence in our
streets?" Of course police
security is only one side of the
question. The college -town
public relations program must
be expanded. Already we have
night courses, Brandeis teachers
in the local high school, and
certain individuals such as Ira
Steinberg working at the Wal-
tham Boys Club. We must
broaden this program, follow-
ing the fine example of the
NSM in Roxbury, I will look
forward to your help and sug-
gestions on both sides of the
town relations problem. We
cannot really organize a Wal-
tham tutoring project until
next year, but we can make it
known from here on that if a
Waltham boy enters this cam-
pus at night, he will be de-
tained by Security.

Gutless Academics

Dear Sir:

1 have been reading adver-
tisements and posters of a drive
on Washington for the purpose
of getting out of Vietnam, sup-
ported by students and faculty
members. They feel we are not

wanted there. The leaders may
in part be Communists or Com-
munist sympathizers, but the
facts on the case are available.

The South Vietnamese are
being threatened mentally and
physically and their leaders are
being murdered by the Viet
Cong. How can they be ex-
pected to stand up against it?
I doubt if any of these gutless
wonders on parade would
either. The other gutless won-
ders — the rest of the students
and professors who are sitting
by doing nothing — are like
the Vietnamese who are on the
fence ready to jump to the win-
ning side.

I suggest since the loud
mouths apparently are speak-
ing for all the students and
professors, that we the public
taxpayers make an immediate
drive on Washington and all
our state capitals to eliminate
all grants, funds, and support
of any kind of the colleges who
have countenanced these drives
without providing adequately
the other side of the picture.

The apathetic students and
professors probably wouldn't
get up enough gumption to say
"Ouch" anyway. If the students
and the Ivory Tower professors
got their hands dirty working,
they just might get a new view-
point.

Very truly yours,

Proposed Curriculum Reform

EDITOR'S NOTE: Following
are excerpts from a report pre-
pared by the Committee on
General Education headed by
Dr. Eugene C. Black and in-
cluding Drs. Lewis Coser, Jo-
achim Gaehde, Stephen Gend-
sier, Jack Goldstein and Allan
Grossman. It was approved by
the Faculty EPC and will be
voted on by the Faculty Thurs-
day.

The committee Is making a
series of recommendations
which reach considerably be-
yond a definition or explication
of general education. We pro-
pose a modification of the aca-
demic environment at Brandeis
through the initiation of a nor-
mal but not mandatory four-
course load, strengthening the
role of faculty advisers, and the
provision of two options for un-
dergraduates to be met as gen-
eral education requirements.
Finally, we recommend the in-
stitution of a standing commit-
tee on general education to ad-
minister and review the re-
quirements.

The Four Course Load

We at Brandeis are captives
of our courses. For students and
for faculty education too often
begins and ends in courses
with their explicit and implied
responsibilities. The interest-
ing assumption implied is that
learning is coterminus with
courses. General education is
**x" courses; concentration is
**y" courses; electives are "z"
courses. X + Y -f Z — under-
graduate education. But we all
acknowledge that undergradu-
ate education must be some-
thing more. The student pres-
ently fragments his attention
among many diverse units. We
load him down until either he
or ourselves have reached far
beyond the point of diminish-
ing returns. He is literally
driven from one subject mat-
ter examination to another. The
faculty h a s, on several occa-
sions, undertaken elaborate in-
vestigations of the four course
load. For a variety of reasons,
none of these proposals has
ever come to a vote before tiie
faculty at large.

Academic leisure, the pro-
vision of time for consiceration
in depth, is essential to provide

the opportunity for scholarship
and learning. A university, in
spite of arguments to the con-
trary, is not an automobile as-
sembly line. As faculty mem-
bers we demand, as we must,
leisure. Without it we cannot
meet our obligations.

We feel that this is equally
true for the student. His leisure
makes him educable. We ac-
knowledge this by taking a
dim view of night courses for
students employed during the
day. Undergraduate education
should be, to a considerable de-
gree, a process which permits
self-education transcending the
course structure. We should
place our confidence in teach-
ing, not in courses or curricula.
We permit little opportunity
for reflection, and we can. by
making more informal teach-
ing time available encourage
and guide this. Tutorials, sem-
inars, independent study, and
honors work within depart-
ments are only partial answers.
Education must integrate and
extend work done in courses.

The business of college edu-
cation is to direct the student
to an account of the world more
or less as a whole with the un-
derstanding that this possession
of such an account is in itself
a good thing. Any mechanical
juxtaposition of "general" or
"special" courses without the
binding mortar of some holistic
account is insufficient.

We can resolve this problem
by creating potential leisure,
deepening and broadening
courses, integrating the diverse
elements of undergraduate ed-
ucation, and enhancing the
qualities of student life through
the adoption of a minimum four
course load. Those students
who need or desire additional
courses in any semester should
have them without additional
tuition fee. provided that the
student is in good standing and
has the approval of his faculty
adviser.

Advising

The success of this or any
other system must in the end
rest upon its participants, not
its curriculum. The functions
of an adviser are not discussed
in the University catalogue or

the Faculty Handbook. Advis-
ing is more than an adminis-
trative function, the casual ex-
amination of a study card, or
the occasional discussion of pos-
sible courses for the student to
take. Advising is teaching and
should be considerably ex-
panded. The basis of the stu-
dent-adviser relationship is a
common interest in the field of
concentration. Freshman ad-
visees should be assigned, inso-
far as possible, to an adviser in
the student's area of interest.

The adviser should assume
many of the functions of a
tutor. Students can and should
be encouraged to discuss spe-
cific questions with the appro-
priate experts, matters relating
to courses with the instructor,
and so on. These points go
without saying. But the adviser
should have a concern of a dif-
ferent character for the stu-
dent. Advising is not a graded
course. It has no specific re-
quirements, being a bond of in-
terest, intellectual curiosity, and
educational concern. The ad-
viser-student relationship is not
a confrontation with adminis-
trative or departmental author-
ity. It is concerned with the
health not the sickness of a stu-
dent. It seeks healthy poten-
tiality not failing potentiality.
Since it is not limited to a fixed
hours and a set syllabus, the
relationship is informal and
flexible.

Advising will be a demand-
ing teaching function deserv-
ing the best personnel a de-
partment can commit to it. The
appointment of each adviser,
therefore, should be made by
the chairman of his department
with the approval of the Dean
of Faculty. Advising: may prove
to be a most significant element
in providing the academic style
that Brandeis needs and de-
serves, so the process of selec-
tion and assig:nment should be
most carefully considered by
each department. Advising
must never become just an-
other chore to be dropped upon
the newest junior member.
Requirement Options

We propose the student be
given, with appropriate guid-
ance, the following two options
with which to satisfy Univer-
sity requirements:

Option I

The general education re-
quirement, under this option, is
essentially the same as at pres-
ent. Each student is exempt
the second requirement in his
school of concentration. Six to
seven semester courses are re-
quired in Humanities, throe to
four in Natural Science, four
in Social Science, and two in
Creative Arts for a total of
thirteen to fifteen required se-
mester courses of the thirty-
three semesters minimally
available to the undergradu-
ate. Each freshman must take
English Composition and oc-
gin to meet his Foreign Litera-
ture requirement. He should
also meet at least one and pref-
erably two other general edu-
cation requirements. All gen-
eral education requirements
should normally be completed
by the end of the junior year.
Requirement I in Humanities
and Natural Science must be
completed before satisfying Re-
quirement II.

Humanities:
Requirement I: One (1) of the

following: Humanities 1, 5,

10, 12, Philosophy 11.
Requirement II: One (1) of the

following: Humanities 2, 3,

4. 6, 7, or any option for

Requirement I.
One year's study of Foreign
Literature at the 10 level or
higher, or, for freshmen, one
semester of advanced Litera-
ture, if so placed.

English Composition la or
lb to be taken as a fifth course.

SOCIAL SCIENCE
HISTORY: One (1) of the
following: History 1, Politics

BEHAVIORAL STUDIES:
One (1) of the following:
Anthropology la-lb. Eco-
nomics la- lb. Psychology la-
lb. Sociology la-2b.
CREATIVE ARTS:
One (1) of the following:
Music 1, Fine Arts 31a-31b,
41a-42b, 51a or 54a-58b, 70a-
71b, Theatre Arts 1.

Option II

The Major-Minor option pre-
serves half of the general edu-
cation requirement bat pro-
ceeds lo offer the choice of
work in depth in a second field.
One more semester is required
to complete Option II (fourteen
to sixteen) than Optioa I.
REQUIRED OF ALL
STUDENTS:

English Composition la or lb
as a fifth freshman course.
One year's study of Foreign
Literature at the 10 level or
higher, or, for freshman, one
semester of advanced Litera-
ture, if so placed.
Humanities Requirement 1.
Natural Science Require-
ment I.

History (as defined above).
One semester of Creative
Arts selected from:

New semester course in
Music, Fine Arts 31a, 3lb,
41a, 42b, 5la, 54a, 58b,
70a, 71b, new semester
course in Theatre Arts.
Six (6) semesters in a de-
partment outside of the
school of concentration.
English Composition
Since writing and reading
are basic to the acquisition of
all other forms of learning, pri-
ority must be given to this form
of study. Instruction in com-
position, especially when un-
dertaken in the freshman year,
must be conducted under the
best possible conditions. We be-
lieve that the current provi-
sions for staffing English Com-
position are insufficient.

Therefore we recommend
that the supervisory staff and
some of the teaching personnel
be drawn from the Faculty.
The committee proposes that a
balance be sought between in-
struction by faculty and by
graduate-student teachers, and

that the administration of the

course be coordinated with the

General Education Committee.

Second Year

Science Requirement

We wish to observe at the
outset that two members of the
committee are strongly in favor
of the retention of a two year
science requirement regardless
of options. The committee found
considerable discontent with
the current second year general
education offering in Biological
Science. Nevertheless we be-
lieve that such a course, em-
phasizing the developments in
modem biology, e.g., molecular
biology and biochemistry should
be offered. We therefore rec-
ommend that the department of
Biochemistry also be involved
in the planning and teaching of
biological science.

The Major- Minor option re-
tains eight to nine semesters in
General Education and then
offers the student the oppor-
tunity to work in depth ia a
different area. It restores elec-
tives lost under the four-course
system while it prevents frag-
mentation of effort. The Major-
Minor Option also prevents
overspecialization by requiring
that the six semester minor be
done in a department outside
of the school of concentration.
Option II represents a different
but legitimate way of realizing
the objectives of general edu-
cation.

New Courses

The committee has attempted
to construct the general educa-
tion curriculum from existing
courses. We do not believe that
this is necessarily an optimal
procedure and we think that
there should be a continuing of
experimentation and re-evalu-
ation in all areas, even those
presently considered to be most
successful.

We also believe that there
should be more elective courses
for the non-specialist which
should be available to all stu-
dents even though they do not
satisfy a general education re-
quirement. For example, we are
of the opinion that the depart-
ment of Mathematics might of-
fer a course which would deal
primarily with the concepts of
modern mathematics without
the constramt of its being a
service course for other dis-
ciplines.

Indian Music

Hassan Padamsee

The art and culture of India played a si^^nificant role
in the Brandeis Creative Arts Festival this year. The
classical dances of India, featuring? Lalli, and a recital of
Indian classical and folk music, featuring Mr. Sushil Muk-
herjee.

To a small but highly appreciative audience Mr. Muk-
herjee begun his program by

NATURAL SCIENCE:

Requirement 1: One (1 ) of the
following: Physical Science
1, Physics 10 or 11, Chemis-
try 10 or 15a.

Requirement II: One (1) of
the following: Biological Sci-
ence 1, Biology 10. (Proposed
new course) Biochemistry or
Molecular Biology.

program
explaining the nature of the
various instruments. The charm
of the North Indian flute or
"bansi" was the charm of hear-
ing the Lord Krishna play to
his beloved, Radha. But it was
not until recently, when Mr.
Panwarlal Ghosh experimented
with the flute, that the full
possibilities of the instrument
were discovered. The "tam-
bora" (played by Anila Sinha)
is a four-stringed instrument
which, like Ihe Sitar. does not
have any parallel in the reper-
toire of Western musical instru-
ments. It has a very mellow
captivating sound. The base
drums and "tablas" were
played by Dr. Sinha.

The role of rhythm in In-
dian classical music is very
fundamental, and can also be
interpreted vocally by "Ka-
rana." Mr. Mukherjoe explain-
ed the two basic types of
rhythm (5 beats to the bar),
the other is sixteen beats (4
beats to the bar), the latter be-
ing more popular. Altiiough the
pattern is strictly followed, the
rhythm itself is quite flexible,
with various combinations of
beats and off beats. Undoubted-
ly this flexibility of rhythmic

patterns lends a greater scope
for rhythmical expression than
can be found in Western music.
This was illustrated with a
few "ghats' (melody built
around a rhythmical pattern)
and a Rag mala, which is a
garland of Ragas.

The rest of the program waa
devoted to Indian folk music,
chiefly from East Bengal To a
considerable extent Mr. M u k -
herjee captured the spirit of
the tK)atman's "intense artislic
life" in both his vocal and in-
strumental renderings of the
love dialogue between the vil-
lage girl and the boatman acrosii
the river. The spirit of ' Bhati-
yale " music lies in the "aesthe-
tic approach to love". The nos-
talgic call of the boatman grad-
ually merging with the lyrical
sound of tile river and the ro-
mantic love .songs of Lord
Krishna to Radha were artistic-
ally rendered on the bewitch-
ing North Indian flute.

Mr. Mukherji-e concluded the
recital with an Evening Raga
with religious overtones, very
reminiscent of the temples of
South India His delicate treat-
ment of the flute gave the feel-
ing of an intense romance with
the instrument.

inasmuch as structure functions
as a component of musical ex-
pressiveness. This factor was
the motivating one behmd the
Beethoven performance by
Robert Koff of the faculty, vio-
lin and Richard Ames, piano.
The engineering aspect varied
from excellent in the first
movement to near-catastrophic
in the last two. A high level of
tension and excitement were
predominant qualities for this
listener throughout. Koffs con-
cept of Beethoven, and of the
musical gesture were the points
of departure in this perform-

ance

An immediate reaction to
this sonata was "fast." How-
ever, this adjective only ap-
plies to the engineering inade-
quacies. Key phrases, in struc-
tural terms, gained their full
expressive power through the
medium, the form of this as-
tronomical speed. Mr. Ames'
playing had many beautiful
moments, but, the gestures,
seemingly thoroughly incul-
cated by Koff, seemed super-
imposed.

Mr Koff's playing, as com-
pared to Miss Foley's, for in-
st;*nce, was not instrumentally
oi"ented, in the idiomatic sense.
(By some coincidence, neither
is Beethoven's music. ) Through-
out, it remained the consistent
expression of the abstract ele-
ment in the music. In his idea,
moment becomes subservient to
totality, violin sound as such to
music. Beautiful and exciting
as Miss Foley's playing in the
Brahms was. KoO's integrity
was the provocative element in
this program.

the Mozart Sonata in C for

Morizio and David St George
made up the remainder of the
program. The Haydn was neat-
ly and sensitively played. Miss
Zwerdling's pianism, which is
expressive on a small scale,
was exactly in order for this
piece.

The Mozart, which opened
the program, was a different
story. Miss Morizio and Mr. St.
George are both fine, intelli-
gent musicians, but one had to
search hard in this rendition to
find phrases that were
well-articulated or really
thought through The last move-
ment, which reveals Mozart in

Historical Intent

So, we must look beyond the
words of the Amendment to
history. But here we learn that
no more than a very few gen-
tlemen of the Civil War era
really wanted the Negro to be
"just like you and me" The
slaves were set free for a vari-
ety of economic and political
as well as humanistic reasons.
Incidentally, LitK'oln's Repub-
lican Party, the party of free-
dom, was a weird coalition of
interests, and it managed quite
easily to include a large num-
ber of negrophobes The point
is. it was agreed that slavery
must be ended, but what was
to replace it was not worked
out. The legislative acts of the
Radical Republicans are of some
help here, t>ut how much? In
other words, from the histori-
cal point of view, it could be
argued that the ideal of the
Fourteenth Amendment was an
X factor, which did not neces-
sarily bear the seed for the
Amendment's recent develop-
ment.

Perhaps the flowering of the
Fourteenth Amendment must
be understood not in terms of
the realization of the true his-
torical intent of the men who
adopted it, but in terms of the
meaning our own generation
has given to its words Dean
Rostow hedged his bets, but
speaking of the transformation
of the Negro's status under the
law as a contest of tradition
and ideals, of positive and nat-
ual law, he seemc>d to be imply-
ing that the type of evidence
we are seeking is to be found
in our own moral conscious-
ness instead of in history. The
moral content of law. he says,
is its decisive arni dominant
value Perhaps, although this

(Continued from Page 5)
tion was intended as theatrics.
Much of the audience came late
while others chose to move
around and look at the paint-
ings of Larry Rivers. Mr. Cage
had been at the museum per-
forming even before it opened.
Christian Wolffs composi-
tion, For One, Two, or Three
Performers was perhaps the
most conventional piece on the

program in that it utilized a
string bass and a gong, with
both instruments being played
by the performers. Misters
Cage, Lucier, and Wolff. The
piece was, save for a f e w
moments, very uninteresting;
and unlike the opening piece,
audience movement was re-
stricted. Tlie performance is
aleatoric; that is, it changes
usually with each performance,
depending upon certain vari-
ables.

The final piece on the con-
cert was entitled (by Mr.
Cage) Rozart Mix and was
filled with action, suspense,

is certainly one of the unsettled
and unsettling questions of phi-
losophy and jurisprudence.
What we have to ask is, what
determines the moral content
of law? Is it the intent of the
legislators? Or the intent of
those who interpret it? And if
it is the latter, is it proper to
speak of the "flowering" of the
law as if the original "ideal"
has been worked out?

If we say that the moral con-
tent of the law — whatever that
is — is important, we ouglit to
discuss our reasons for giving
the law such and sucli a con-
tent at a particular time. Why,
for instance, ought we t'*eat
the Negro as an equal? Or. as
Dr. Roche would put it. why
ought we do what our fore-
fathers would not do. and in-
clude "Negro" in the category
of "Men ' when we affirm that
all men are created equal?
Dean Rostow apparently rests
his own answer on the morality
of natural law, much as Jeffer-
son did in the Declaration. He
is welcome to his opinion, of
course, but there are many
men today who will not hold
truths of this nature to be self-
evident. If all men are created
equal, in what sense, and how?
In other words, how do we
validate appeals to natural
law? Or, if we don't want to
rely on transcendent legalities,
on what grounds can we justify
our self-righteousness toward
Dixie?

I have tried to indicate
some of the difficult problems
inherent, but suppressed, in
Dean Rostow's lecture. Admit-
tedly there's a limit to what
can be said in an hour, but
his failure to confront these
problems was a disappointment
all the same.

and just good clean fun. The
performers were Mr. Cage, Mr.
Lucier, and students Robert
Falck, Thomas Benjamin, Lyle
Davidson, and Richard Ler-
man. Tape loops ranging in
length form one foot to per-
haps thirty feet were run be-
tween twelve tape recorders
and music stands. If and when
a tape loop broke, the per-
former was to splice it and
Mien return with a loop for the
machine. Passage in and out of
the museum was hampered by
the loops often being stretched
up and down the stairs or ac-
cross doorways. The Reviewer
left (leaving behind a great
tumult) after one hour of this
and has no idea when the pro-
ceedings ended.

Mathematics has been

Natural Science requirement.
]n addition to Bioligical Sci-
ence 1, non-science concentra-
tors will be able to fulfill their
second year requirement by
taking a new introductory
course in Biochemistry or
Molecular Biology.

The plan provides for the
dropping of History 51a and
51b (American History) as a
course which will fulfill the
Social Science requirement.
Anthropology la has also been
dropped from the first year
list, but has been added to the
second year list. Only History I
and Politics I remain as choices
for the first year "Historical"
requirement. Students must
complete their second-year Be-
havioral requirement in one
department.

The faculty adviser
will be altered so as
faculty members each
student advises and to give the
faculty members credit for
leaching a semester course for
serving as an advisor. Due to
the four course load, concen-

be revised.

For the first time in four years the Brandeis tenni.^
team gained mastery over Hates College by capt tiring all
singles matches so that it would not have the familiar
opi)ortunity to lose the match in doubles. The week had
begun on a blue Monday which+

An ebullient Coach Ray
Ginger thought ho had Davis
Cup material on his hands af-
ter he witnessed his men sweep
tlie six singles matches from
Bates. He was so ecstatic that
he lioped the match would be
covered in The Reporter maga-
zine, a journal that frequently
interviews tennis coaches. Pur-
j)orting to tell the truth, The
Reporter's account of the
match would say the following:
". . . The match was clinched
by Ethan Gluck, playing in the
fifth singles position. Elegant
Ethan, clad this lime in pink
talTeta shorts, won the first set,
6-0. ceding his opponent only a
paucity of points. Overconfi-
dent, and vexed by his upcom-
ing singing debut at The Silent
Woman Restaurant, he dropped
the next, G-1. and was down
4-1 in the third. Fearing
ignominy and wholesale ex-
coriation from his doubles

amazing Bernie Rous made his

ed with Gerry Katz to win
Brandeis' only doubles match.

Rous is clearly the closest
thing Brandeis has to a Bill

lege tennis players in New

pearance on the courts last

saw a confident MIT team shut
out the Judges, 9-0. The lads
from Cambridge had displayed
much enthusiasm the week be-
fore when they had insisted
upon playing Brandeis even in
the rain. Both teams seemed
willing to continue this new
underwater sport until some-
one remembered that tennis
rackets soon turn to lacrosse
sticks under such conditions.
Mike Seltz. who was deadlock-
ed with his opponent, 3-3, said
he played some of his best
tennis in the rain In his singles
debut, Howard Latin dropped
his first set 6-0 and swore that
when the match was resumed,

Clarkies Bite

On the day after the com-
pletion of the MIT match Bran-
dei.s defeated Clark by the
strange score of 4-3. 2-even in
a match halted by darkness:
our doubles teams of Alshuler-
Gerstel and Katz-Rous had just
begun their third sets when the
clock struck eight. The medio-
cre and usually discordant duo
of NemirofV and Gluck had
earlier given Brandeis a 4-3
lead as they managed to win
sans difficulty.

The team expected its next
opponent to be a strong one
but this turned out to be a bad
Assumption. Brandeis enter-
tained both facility and celerity
in defeating its token foe, 8-1.
Toying with his novice op-
ponent, however, was Dave
Gerstel, unaware that defeat
was lurking in such tactics.
Seltz and Larry Grylack — who
last year constituted one-half
the doubles team of (Gryl 1)

doubles while the redoubtable
Latin teamed with Chris Rye

Brandeis to Dedicate
Spingold Arts Center

Brandeis will dedicate its multi-million dollar Nate
B. and Frances Spingold Theatre Arts Center on Friday,
June 11.

Among the highlights of the dedication festivities will
be a banquet and a preview showing the world-famous
loan exhibition of the Spingold art collection.
The gallery, which is on the

main, or third floor of the
three-story Center was planned
to house not only works from
the Spingold Art Collection,
but also displays of theatre
scenery, costumes, posters and
works of art from the Univer-
sity Collection.

Other facilities on the main
floor include a main auditor-
ium, with a seating capacity of
750, a director's theatre which
will seat 150 persons, a flexible
theatre, a dance studio and re-
hearsal rooms.

All the University's prosce-
nium productions will be
staged in the main auditorium.
The proscenium width will
rank with that of any major
stage in the country. In addi-
tion, the auditorium will pro-
vide a platform for special
guest lecturers for the Theatre
Arts Department.

Graduate and undergraduate
playwrights will be able to
produce their own plays in the
director's theatre. The flexible
theatre will serve as a prosce-

Aid Needed

For SCOPE

Project

This summer the entire Bran-
deis community — students, fac-
ulty, and administration — is
participating in a civil rights
project in Columbia. Soutli
Carolina. Known as SCOPE
(Summer Community Organ-
ization and Political Educa-
tion), tlie project will last
about eleven weeks, including
two weeks of orientation. The
volunteers will work in polit-
ical education, tutoring, and
voter registration projects.

The Brandeis program will
not end this summer. Brandeis
workers will be in close contact
witfi students from the two
Ne^ro colleges in Columbia.
Administrators at Brandeis and
these two Ne^ro colleges are
formulating plans for student
and faculty exclianges in the
future. Al.-io, Brandeis students
will work in Columbia next
summer and perhaps after-
wards, while students from the
Columbia area will work in
Roxbury.

The major need of SCOPE is

Tuition Rises

Aoa in

o

Costs

Above $3000

Brandeis announced last
week the third tuition increase
in the past live years. Begin-
ning in Sepleml>er l9Gf> tuition
charges will rise $250 to $1900
per year.

Because of the University
policy not to increa.so tuition
for any -.tudent more than once
in a four-year period, the class
of 19G7 will be exempt from
(he change. The reason for the
new increase is the need to
hold down the current deficit
in the educational budget at
five million dollars per year.

Dean of Students. Kermit
Morrissey. explained that rising
faculty salaries, making up the
bulk of the deficit, correlated
almost directly with student
tuition charges and cited it as
the basic reason for the chaiit^e.
The increa.se puts Brandeis
near the top in total costs of
the major colleges, with total

(Coniinucd on Page 8)

in
their programs.

The proposals, the result of a
year- long study by the General
Education CommiUoe headed
by Associate Dean of Faculty
Eugene C. Black, were adopted
by tlie Faculty Educational
Policy Committee before being
submitted to the entire faculty.
They called for the adoption of
a four-course load for all stu-
den(s with a hfth course avail-
able at no extra fee. The ma-
jor aim of the plan is to tillable I
students to have more "aca- 1
demic lei.^ure" in order to i)ur-
sue their course work in great-
er dei)th or in order to investi-
gate other interests

After postponing a final de-
cision on the four -course load
proposal, which pas.sed by a 2-1
ni;ijority at the i)relitninary
May 13 meeting, the faculty
ado()led a motion to reduce
general education icquimuents
under "Option I." (thf general

A Dignified Dialogue

This has V>vvi\ the year of
"The Revohition on the Cam-
pus," but thtre has been rela-
tive eaim at Brandeis, a seenc
©1 fie<iiienl stiuient revolt in
the past. It is appropriate, at
the end ol the year, to address
ourselves to this general situa-
tion.

Jt 1 lends ean be exlraeted
fioni It tent turmoil on eam-
puses, tiiere seem to be three
m.'ijor sources of student dis-
conttnt. To begin with, there
is llie phenonii'non ol mass-pro-
ilueed and impersonal educa-
tion This was one o' the fac-
tors piompting the Berkeley
revolt. This is not an issue at
Brandt is where the educational
oppoitunitit s are in (luality and
ciuantity, tlic linest in the na-
tion.

Another area concerns politi-
cal f rt edom of the students on
and olT campus. Again, this has
not bten an issue at Brandeis
where the administration has,
generally, either supported or,
at least nt)t interfered with,
student political expression.

Tht third area concerns a
considerably more intangible
issue: violation of student re-
spect and dignity. Students
ieel themselves to be cogs, ser-
vants — or at least incidental
\q — a mammotli called "high-
er education" They have
sens^^d Administrators' eyes
looking bt yond them .o grants,
iDuildings. prestige etc. In es-
st»nct\ students who are told
that they are the "creiun of the
crop" "our nations future" do
not feel that their collective
•A\\i\ individual dignity is re-
spected, or even taken into con-
sideration.

This area has always been
the crux of ct)ntrt)versy at
Brandeis. Crises have c o n -
eerned various spt^cific issues
such as parietal hours, review
boards, housing arrangements,
etc., but a common denf)mina-
tor in all crises has bten stu-
dent resentment of administra-
tion duplicity — a duplicity
more the result of lack of re-
spect and concern, than a lack
of integrity — and being viewed
as obstacles to be gotten around
rather then as important parti-
cipants in tht^ University. In
essence, the University has not
treated us with the basic
dignity we feel entitled to sim-
ply as human beings.

To ctnne back to the issue,
■why the dormancy of the Bran-
deis student bt)dy in this year
of revolution? To treat the ob-
vious explanatit)ns first, the
administration has, for the

mt)st part, avoided taking the
kinds of actions which would
provoke student discontent.
Further, the adminislratitm has
made some gestures, if hesitant
and tentative, towa 'd improved
student-administration relations
such as the dialogue between
the Prtsident and student lead-
ers and the rectjnsitleration of
incorporating a student voice
in decision- making processes.

As studtnts we can interpret
this turn of events cynically,
saying that the administration
is playing it close to the hip in
a year of revolution, or liope-
fully, saying that this indicates
a true change of attitude. How-
ever, the investigation ol mo-
tives is fruitless and, finally,
unimportant. Whatever reasons
of mt4ives prompted this
change, it can and should mark
the beginning of a reconstitu-
tion ol administration-student
rt lations.

We, as students, hope that
this will be the case, for we
much prefer a fruitful confer-
ence table to a frustrating bar-
lieade. We hope that the tenta-
tive gestures of this year will
become meaningful and per-
manent programs and attitudes.
We hope that the administra-
tion has realized that the stu-
dents have a mature and
responsible concern for the
University, and that the only
way to destroy the student
stereotype of the "ruthless ad-
ministrator" is for the adminis-
triJtion to abandon the equally
debilitating stereotype of the
"irresponsible student." In a
situation where power and con-
trol ^o clearly rests with one
side, the responsibility is upt)n
that side to halt the vicious
cycle.

Such a change would be of
grt at importance, for whether
or not our situations and in-
terests are, finally, mutually in-
compatible, the relationship be-
tween the administration and
the students ean surely become
more positive and productive.
There may be ultimate dis-
agreement over some specifics
and gt^als, but there is also the
coexistent possibility of real
improvements and innovations
in the University. The atmos-
phere of mutual recrimination
must be replaced by the recog-
nition of a mutual interest in
the direction of the growth of
the University. The key is not
agreement on all issues, not
even institutions and programs,
but rather, a level of integrity
and mutual respect in the dia-
logue itself.

Problem of Power What Price Bramleis?

By RICHARD WEISBEWi

Last year's senior essays were iinanimous in
their criticism of a university administration
which seemed, tragically, to bt^ moving down
the primrose path to conformity. The valedictory
speaker of the Class of 1964 echoed this senti-
ment, as did the subsequent applause of virtual-
ly all the assembled graduating students.

Yet quite surprisingly, the myth continued
to be propagated that only a small, destructive
minority, consisting of rabble-rousers and loud-
mouths, was dissatisfied with Messrs Sachar,
Levy, Morrisey, et. al. This despite the sup-
porting applause, this despite the fact that the
critical words were coming not from "rabble-
lousers" (or "scuttlebut mongers" as Dr. Sachar
would probably phrase it), but from a pre-
viously unheard-lrom valedictorian, from two
Fulbright winners, from some of the most dis-
tinguished members of the Class of '64.

There were also the expressed doubts of
many as to the sincerity ol those who criticized.
Some question was raised as to their "love" of
Brandeis, their appreciation for all the school
had ofTered them, etc.

So let's set the record straight at the outset. I
would not exchange my four years at Brandeis
for anything: I am aj-prcciative of a University
which has offered me a wondt rlul laculty, a
rtasonably unusual student boi^'. iJnd. until
recently, an atmosphere of Ireedom conducive
to giowth and kariiing.

It is, in fact, precisely because of this appre-
ciation (as I'm sure it was also in tlie case of
last year's speakers) that I cannot look in-
diflert ntly upcm a trtnd wliich stems antitheti-
cal to everyliiing positive for v-'hich Brandeis
has stood There is sSmpJy no excuse for any
university, existing in as iniperiect society as
<;ur own, to adopt the stahdards t-f that society
and (<i conform to its worst tenets.

In fact, il a liberal institution, such as Bran-
deis was, insists t)n regulating its siiidents" per-
sonal lives, protecting its "image" against non-
conlormisl and often avant-garde thought
(among studtnts and faculty), and, in general,
adopting those very societal values which mt)st
cry lor reform; if the phenomenon t)f conformity
ct)ntinues at such universities, then there is
little hope for any improvement in a world
greatly in need of it.

In Dr. Sachar, Brandeis has a president who
is greatly responsible ft)r the University's very
existence. Ff)r this tremendous accomplishment
he is worthy of high praise and respect. It has
never been the goal of any student, least of
all those who have expressed their views con-
sistently in these columns, to be disrespectful to
such a man.

But this rightfully, admired past record does
not exempt the President from criticism of his
recent actit)ns That he finds most criticism to
be "disrespectful scuttlebutt" is his own prob-
lem: that is no way to answer a student body
which he himself delights in praising to wom-
ens' groups, business limcheons, etc.

Dr. Sachar seems to consider us collectively
with much pride, but in personal confrontations
with students he betrays a nervously uncom-
ft)rtable misunderstanding of the student men-
tality, student problems, in sliort, the student
as an individual rather than a statistic.

The Prtsident finally condescended to meet

with "student leadt rs" three times over the

past year (on two occasions he even permitted

questions), but these de Gaollr-like press con-

One t^f my professors suggested last month
that America has paid a great price to bttomp
rich and powerful. The thought may hi
applicable to Brandeis — the University has
given up a great deal in order to gain its reou-
tatit)n for excellence.

Has the University gained a real excellence
as well as the reputation that is its accompani
ment? By conventional standards the answer is
a positive one. Begin with the consideration of
faculty and students. The quality of both is
high high. For affirmation of the first we need
only inquire among the students; 1 have found
a great deal of respect for the intelligence and
knowltdgeability of the Brandeis faculty among
those likely to know a great deal about it --
their students. Brandeis students (some of
them) take their learning seriously; enough do
so tt) validate a claim of excellence.

There is a great deal of learning taking
place in and around Brandeis. This is partially
the consequence of the existence of the two
groups mentioned, and partially a consequence
of the presence of a generous amount of aca-
dt mic freedom. And here we begin to discover
the price Brandeis has paid; our version 4)f
acadt mic freedom extends to include activities
usually included within the academic area:
each faculty member, as far as 1 know, is per-
mitted to assign to a class any reading he ct)n-
y'ldvrs relevant, worthwhile, or gt)od lor a
laugh, just as the subject matter and positions
taken are completely his t)wn concern. But
profes.vors whose actions outside the classroom
are frowned upon in administrative circles fre-
qntntly find themselves in uncomfortable posi-
tions whtn the time comes for contract re-
newal. Appartntly, there is an effective lino
separating the signing of a New York Times
siatement on Viet Nam from the leading of a
peace march to Watertown arsenal.

This administrative distaste for finding
faculty members in the vanguard of radical
movements is not an isolated phenomenon; it
is ratht r part of the price paid for the achieve-
ment of a certain sort of excellence Jules
Feiffer described to us last October the "radical
middle" philosophy embodied in the phrase
"don't make waves." Our administration has
taken the advice to heart. A desire to be recog-
nized as one among many liberals (sicning
statements in the Times is approved), but cer-
tainly not as a handful of radical It^ulers
(Watertown Arsenal marches are out), is a
perfect example of a "radical middle" position
for the educated American-Jewish community —
and there we are.

The radical middle easily finds a niche in
educational policies. It is this: declare wide and
loud the University's progressiveness, but at-
tempt no meaningful changes. "Try this simple
test" (as the saying goes): count the number of
times our news releases describe a University
feature as "unique." Then count the number
of significant educational innovations begun by
our University. Find the difference between the
first and the second. Think hard now; what
significant educational innovation was intro-
duced by Brandeis University? The Hiatt In-
stitute? Hardly. The concept of study abroad
was not born in 1960.

The Morse Communications Research Center?
Well, first covmt the number of students in-
volved (0?). then txplain why the Institute's

Since the Brandeis Gazette story of May 13 concerning my
two recent research grants, there have been several rumors
circulating amtmg students about my status, or lack of status,
at Brandeis next year. In spite of the front page official Bran-
deis announcement of these grant.s, neither of t.hem (as a dis-
cerning reader might have nott^ from the story) is in any way
related to Brandeis. So to settle rumor number one, I am not
returning to Brandeis next year. A second rumor, or series of
rumors, is why I will not be returning. Apparently, some stu-
dents were aware that my services were terminated by the
Administration, while others were not aware of this. The recent
grant announcement served to confuse the issue

As to the rumors circulating about the reasons for the
Administration's actions, anyone's speculations are as good as
mine or as good as the speculatiom; of my departmenl. When
notified last year of my terminal appointment, my departmc^nt

point in between. He wished he

ior once there he could begin
to live as he would anywhere
else." These lines, taken from
the opening chapter of Magic
Mountain represent in one sense
our opening four years ago on
a similar journey. The journey
in the novel was to be of
three weeks' duration, but it
lastt^d far longer; ours was to
be four years and for most of
us it has lasted that long. But
we have only reached an in-
termediate plateau; it is now
that we are called to extended
duration. Hans Cast or p was
going to a tuberculosis sana-
torium; we have come to a
University. For us, too. our
four years have inscribed a

own novel. These have been
years of "hermetic enchant-
ment," — "hermetic" accorded
its dual significance. The al-
chemical spell is over; the seal
is being rt moved. As with any
journey, any experience, it
does not in itself mean, but it
is meaningful It is meaningful
upon our reconstruction, upon
oiu- choice of reintegration.

Each of us has, in progres-
sive stages of consciousness,
formulated his own "magic
mt)untain,' his own idea of the
sanatorium, of t h e university
way-station. The decision to at-
tend a university involves the
search for a specific cure, a
unique and directional cure.
Four years ago we had "no
positive reason for exertion."

Space seeking a reason for
exertion. It has been a move-
ment of aspirations towards

we had to lay them down We
descend that mountain now,

Hans C a s t o r p, the novel's

Then there are always cri-
tics of art who apply constant

described as eternal yardsticks.

ages to bend the medium to his
will with breath-taking use of

made about a style, it is something like those bars of

only after a careful examina-
tion undertaken within the
framework of the culture which
creat€»d it.

There is a tendency to be-
come a bit permissive in evalu-
ating cultural products on such
a relative basis. Thus while
any self - respecting Western
critic is willing to admit the
Soviet Union's sterility in the
creation of the visual arts, he
may turn about and declare
contemporary Western art to
be potentially great because
"any style can bo aesthetically
viable." But in such a case, the
question of ideology clouds the

issue.

How should one judge a con-
temporary work of art? If the
"test of time" is one's undying
criterion for greatness, then the
only thing to do is sit around
and wait. One can always say.
"I like it," and that's safe and
simple and. hopefully, honest.
But from that it does not fol-
low that "they like it. there-
fore it's good." In nineteenth
century France, the Salon aca-
demicians fetched high prices,
while the Impressionists were
scorned. Today, there's an Im-
pressionist in every truly classy

— and indeed the misnaming —

The problem can be mocked .^^ j^j^ ^^^ different from
to bits, but 'i/^'V^ms serious ^^^^^^ insofar as they delve in-
to the deepest resources of the
medium rather than adopt for

if you really want to call one
work of art better than an-
other, seems to be one which
relies on the subjective judg-
ment of the educated, the ex-
perienced. All sorts of difficul-
ties remain. But if the experts
are split, time can always be
invoked as a test of "univer-
sality." The relativists may
shout their heads off. but you
can probably get away with
the Universal as an absolute.
After all, the premise of the
discussion is that Art can be
spoken of iu a constant sense.
So far, the attempt to define
aesthetic evaluation has once
again led to nothing of itself.
But an application of the dis-
cussion to today's art may
make some things clear. To be-

cited above everything else by
the possibilities inherent in
films as a means of aesthetic
expression. And film as an art
form is at its beginning, so that
most expressive films in our
time will, of course, appear as
'experiments.' "

Actually, it is largely a mat-
ter of degree separating those
films which are conventional
and formula-ridden from those
which are genuinely "experi-

that fact (note the ". . . it

correct for it by bending over
backwards. Thus each new

no easy matter.

The best thing to do, I feel,
is to expose oneself to as much

to pry open one's mind. Certain
axioms, such as "music must

In surveying the work of
younger composers in America,

under the influence of John

importance and in some cases
is disappearing entirely. This
phenomenon is not unnatural

By RUSS ROTHMAN

EDITOR'S NOTE: Mr. Rothman is a gradnute student in the
History o/ Ideas.

On May 21, Professor Herbert Marcuse presented to
the Hrandeis SocioloKy Collo(|uium a brilliant pai)er on Max
Welier's conception of the bureaiuratically or^anizeil cap-
italist economy and state as the realization of Western
reason. The j)ai)er, entitled ''Industrialization and Capital-
ism," was originally presented by Prof. Marcuse to the
plenary session of the fifteenth

Mankind's struggle for the

"pat ill cut ion of existenc e,"
when its "reason" becomes the
oiganized extraction of profits
for some within a struggle of
man with man, becomes "the
scJentJlJcaJly organized destruc-
tion of men."

Bourgeois Reason

Prof. Marcuse does not mean
to suggest that Weber foresaw
or foretold these developments.
But that they are allowed for
or "contained in" Weber's anal-
ysis of capitalist rationality is
certainly true. And in this
sense even Weber's science does
not remain "value-free" and
"neutral"; it becomes critical,
and disclo.«<es the dehumanizing
process inherent in the devel-
opment of "rational" capitalist
organization for the calculable
and eflicient production for
profit. Weber himself wi.shed

Weber's self-proclaimed "val-

analysis subordinated to serv-

Value Free Science

Weber's "value-free" science
is committed to "the efiort to
deit rmine the rationality" he
considered to be embodied in
the Western material and in-
tellectual culture. He finds this
rationality ha.^ two aspects, the
theoretical and the practical.
The first consists in "the pro-
gressive mathematization of
experience and knowledge,"
and the second in the use of
rational experiment and ra-
tional proof in creating an or-
ganization of technically well-
cjualified officials whose direc-
tion of society becomes, in

Herbert Marcu.se is also a
man of courage, and the small
men feared his lack of fear as
they feared the quantum and
quality of his knowledge and
the ironic temper through
which he so calmly understood
the pompous and the preten-
tious. He threatened, some-
times only by the style of his
thought, the established re-
pressive order in its local and
larger manifestations; you may
be able to grasp his success and
meaning as a teacher by those
of us who, touched by his fire,
will measure ourselves as men

mendacity, the hypocrisy, the
cruelty, the technological nihil-
ism so characteristic of con-

since we cannot think about

must take our stand with man.
And what does all this
amount to? we live in a time of
fat and petty aspirations, of op-

variety, in a time of fear and
a time of violence. We live
also in a time of real if slender
hope, a time in which great
good can come to mankind as
well as great evil. But these,
our times, are like all times in
the history of man. Man is al-
ways at the crossroads oi nobil-

liberation and oppression.

are easy to come by. Always.

are a hard task. Always. The

But unless teaching and
learning? are mere communica-
tion of information and acquisi-
tion of facts ( which might as
well be gleaned from written
tcKts ) , then they must neces-
sarily go beyond the accepted
universe of discourse and raise
the level of understanding by
opposing all abstract and par-
tial (and thereby false) views
of reality: To oppose positivism
anil r^ynicism, teaching idenLiiies
itself with negative thinking.

Negative Thinking

In all of his teaching, both
written and oral, Marcuse has
embodied the cirdinal tenets of
negative thinking - — the belief
that "the whole is the truth"
and that "the whole is false."
Rcasion and Rciynlutioii is an at-
tein[)t to revive the tradition of
negative thinking; Marcuse's
most recent l)ook unmasks the
underlying structure of contem-
porary society and demon-
strates its falsity by comparing
its promises and potentialities
with its present suppressive
features. In his daily activity
he has, for instance. ofTered
both courses on the War-
fare State and seminars on
Kant and Hegel; he has always
been ready to discuss minute
problems of scholarship with
an individual student or to ad-
drtvss a large group on a topic
of current concern. The unity
of these activities is obvious to
hitn. for their common object
is the elucidation of human po-
tentialities and the identifica-
tion of the forces which prevent
thrir realization.

Seen in this light, the grow-
ing furor in the academic com-
munity over the issue of teach-
ing vcmuH research appears to
be ba.sed on a fundamental mis-
conception. Opposmg teaching
to research misses the point en-
tirely: the art of teaching is
not threatened by overempha-
sis on research, but rather by
the contemporary method of
res'arch It is the fetishism
of compulsive publication, with
the resulting concoction of dis-
honest "projects" and the col-
lection of irrelevant material,
that threatens to deplete the
ranks of the teaching profession
of all except those who cannot
master the technique of extort-
ing grants frotn the apparently
endless array of guillible foun-
dati(»ns. This methodology is
based upon the fantastic as-
sumption that knowledge ad-
vances by breaking down prob-
lems into smaller and smaller
units — ultimately doctoral dis-
sertations — and then adding
np the results. An equally ludi-
crous model of the teacher
emerges: he is one who accum-
ulUes "new" facts and trans-
nrits them to others.

Just as there exists a false
dichotomy between teaching
and research, there is a false
antinomy between teaching and
learning. While one can accum-
ulate di.screte facts by oneself,
no knowledge is necessarily
gained thereby; on the other
hand, teaching is itself a learn-
ing process wiiich consists pri-
mal ily in tliC elimination of in-
dividual prejudices. The only
true pedagogy is a dialectical
one — dialogue with others
against idiosyncrasy. Learning
and teaching are inseparable,
and moreover this mutual ex-
change is one of the most truly
human of all activities.

Dialectical Pedagogy

M<H cu.se is a master <j( dia-
lectical pedagogy: Dialectical
pedagogy demands that we are
seriously committed to the pur-
suit of truth. Marcu.se never
tires of insisting that thought
its»'lf is a v:ilue and thus, that
no thinking is possible without
a committment to intellectual

honesty and integrity. (The fact
that this idea is now completely
discredited testifies to the per-
vasiveness of the prevailing
cynicism.) Dialectical pedagogy
requires a teacher to engage in
the widest |>ossible 'technique'
by constantly transcending the
formal limits (cla.ssroom, sem-
inar, etc.) of educational insti-
tutions, because it insists upon
the intimate con-nection be-
tween learning and life. Learn-
ing provides the only possible
meaning for life, and the bet-
terment of human life is the
only justification- for learning.
The pedagogy which Marcuse
elucidates, embodies and treas-
ures certain inquiries more
highly than others. No teacher,
whatever his "field," can ig-
nore those issues — all of which
are ultimately political — which
affect the destiny of human so-
ciety. (Presumably this was
part of the rationale in the con-
cept of the PhD degree — doctor
of philosophy in history, in
chemistry, in literature, etc.)

Genuine teaching must be
directed in part against the cur-
rent atmo.sphere of the organi-
zational apparatus which sup-
ports it. In the present liberal
setting, all ideas are tolerated
because it is believed that none
really matter; from every dean
we hoar cultured cliches such
as, "College is a laboratory for
testing ideas." Of course, the
instant a qualitatively different
idea is raised — or worse, acted
upon — and the limits of con-
sensus are transcendcKi, the
familiar mechanisms of i>uni.s,h-
ment (rai.sing of eyebrows, per
sonal irterviews with officials,
ostracism, dismissal) are set in
motion. Yet genius teaching
presupposes the unity of ideas
and activity, of theory and
practice; in doing so it com-
bats the prevailing agnosticism
(in the sense defined by Paul
Baran) which leads to inactivi-
ty: i.e. to being "cool," relative,
and cynical.

It should bo obvious from
the above that Marcuse's peda-
gogy imposes heavy demands
upon tho.se who wish to learn.
The fact that our society makes
the achievement of a college
diploma an act of socially nec-
essary labor has given riso to
a teaching methodology which
seeks to make the learning proc-
ess "exciting" and "fun." But
this methodology has nothing in
common with Marcu.se's peda-
gogy: he assumes that the stu-
dent approaches his work with
a serious, if unfocused, con-
cern; with a resolve to work
hard; and a desire to accom-
plish more than the passing of
an examination. Everyone who
has learned on these terms has
been amply rewarded.

We have tried to convey
some notion of Marcuse's great-
ness as a teacher by outlining
the true role of the teacher (as
compared to the debased ver-
sion which abounds today) and
by showing how fully he meets
the demands of that role. It is
far more difficult to treat ade-
quately through the printed
page his personal impact upOn
the individuals involved. Those
who have seen and heard him
remember the abundant humor,
the mastery of Socratic method,
the fairness and generosity in
debate, the sure command of
a vast learning, and the un-
bounded intellectual curiosity.
For him the farewell lecture at
Brandeis, in which he urged
his audience to develop a truly
radical critique of the prevail-
ing social order, was a charac-
teristic gesture. And for us, as
always, it was in the name of
forgotten humanity.

field. However, a decision on
this suggestion was also post-
poned until December. A mo-
tion to allow students to minor
in the same school as their ma-
jor was rejected.

Another problem still to be
settled concerns counting
courses for credit. The Gen Ed
plan called simply for rtxiuir-
ing 32-33 courses for gradu-
ation without weighting any
mf)re heavily than others. Many
in the School of Science ob-

On Weber

(Continued from Page 4)

of his conception of formal cap-
italist rationality; his "reason"
remains bourgeois reason and
thus was not "value-free"
enough! Explicitly rejecting
the critical implications of his
own scientific analysis of the
"reason" of industrial capital-
ism, "he defined himself as a
'bourgeois' and identified his
work with the historical mis-
sion of the bourgeoisie. In the
name of this alleged mission,
he accepted the alliance be-
tween representative strata of
the German bourgeoisie and
the organizers of reaction and
repression against the political
adversaries of the radical left,
he called for the mental asy-
lum, the zoo, and the revolver
shot; he, the most intellectual
of all sociologists, raged against
the intellectuals who had sac-
rificed their lives for the revo-
lution."

"Value-free" though Weber
proclaimed his science to be, he
wished, in the arena of fierce
international rivalry, to make
economic organization serve
the political i>ower of the na-
tion. In order to assure this,
political power had to be in
the hands of the economically
dominant class, the bourgeoi-
sie. But Weber considered the
bourgeoisie politically imma-
ture and in need of a charis-
matic leader. Marcuse exposes
the sociological poverty of th(^
category of "political immatur-
ity": in highly organized non-
liberalistic capitalism the con-
centration of power becomes
the "necessary apex of regi-
mentation" within capitalist
rationality. Weber him-
self shows this when he is dis-
cussing capitalist organization
in itself, apart from the arena
of national and international
power politics. In Economy
and Society Weber declares
economic organization to be ra-
tional to the extent human
needs and purpo.ses are quanti-
fied and calculable variable.?
within the economic process.
But he also claims that the pro-
vision for needs is one of the
criteria of a rational economy.
Why then is advanced indus-
trial socialism not more ra-
tional than capitalism? Not
merely because Weber has in
view an international struggle
to which he subordinates eco-
nomic organization, but be-
cau.se he finds in industrializa-
tion itself the rational neces-
sity of bureaucratic organiza-
tion under private control, ul-
timately under the charismatic
Leader. Industrialization de-
mands the separation of the ma-
jority of men from control over
the means of production, and
it demands discipline within
the hierarcliy of personal fur*c-
tions within the industrial ap-
paratus. This "necessary work
discipline" is the control of
things over men. and according
to Weber is the "fate" of the
modern industrial world.
Logically it extends to the
whole of society in the form of
precise, efficient and rigorous
bureaucratic control. But of
reason which in its most formal
nature culminates merely in
control, it must be asked who
controls and for what purpose;
to what is reason subjecting it-
self? The fateful (and fated?)
answer is: to an alien power, to
"an extra- and supra-bureau-
cratic power." And here we
arrive at the irrationality of
capitalist reason: ultimate ra-
tional control is exerci.sed by a
power which is apparently
validated only by its charisma,
and is rationally necessary only
in the sense that some control-
ling power is necessary over
the apparatus.

stantive character, its actual
purpose and direction, finds its
justification only in the charis-
matic domination of the peo-
ple. And as the substantive in-
terests controlling the indus-
trial apparatus become more
destructive, and thus threaten
t^o reveal themselves to the peo-
ple as ultimately irrational, the
charismatic aura of power must
be extended till, in manipu<
lated democracy, a "shell of
bondage" is constructed in
which all interests appear to be
rationally reconciled and mere-
ly charismatic and exploitative
domination appears as popular
self-determinaton and s e 1 f-
satisf action. Weber recognized
this apparent "democratiza-
tion" of industrial capitalist so-
ciety as "the rather exclusive
levelling of the dominated vis-
a-vis the ruling, bureaucratic-
ally organized group, which
may actually, but often even
formally, occupy a wholly
autocratic position."

All of this is according to
Weber "fated" by the neces-
sary discipline and separation
of men from the means of pro-
duction which is demanded by
industrialization. Prof. Marcuse
answers that "society is not na-
ture': who decrees this fate?"
Technology can, by the very
fact that it is merely a rational
means, be subordinated to very
different forms of organization.
What appeared as "fate" to
Weber was merely one histor-
ically given form of organiza-
tion, the domination of men by
things which is brought about
by tha capitalist domination of
men by men, and is at its con-
trolling apex again, both fro-
mally and substantively, the
domination of men by men.
But Marcu.se refuses the irra-
tional act of bestowing on this
given reality the dignity of rea-
son: "This fate has become a
fate and inasmuch as it has be-
come it can also be abolished.
The scientific analysis that is
not committed to this possibil-
ity of conquering this fate is
pledged, not to reason, but to
the reason of established domi-
nation."

Technological rea.son is the
reason of control, but as for-
mal reason of control it is po-
tentially not only the means of
dominating then, the means
of erecting "shells of bondage,"
but also is potentially "the in-
strument for the liberation of
man" from both want and oner-
ous labor. Technological rea-
son contains this much of
"fate": its purely formal nature
implies the necessity for sub-
stantive, non-formal, purpose
in its direction. But that its
substantive character reveals
itself in efficient inefTiciency
and destructive productivity is
due to the fact that "from the
beginning it was a specific
technical reason and a specific
political reason, determined,
that is, and limited, by specific
controlling interests."

Bondage is a historical and
mortal fate; only separation
from the means of production
is a specifically technological
fate. Prof. Marcuse insists on
the rationally inescapable con-
clusion: "If the separation from
the means of production is a
technical necessity, the bondage
organized thereby is not. On
the basis of its own achieve-
ments, that is, of productive
and calculable mechanization,
this society contains the possi-
bility of a qualitatively differ-
ent rationality, in which the
separation from the means of
production becomes the separa-
tion of man from socially neces-
sary but dehumanizing labor.
At the stage in which automated
production would be adminis-
tered by men who are thus
liberated, formal reason and
substantive reason would be no
longer 'antinomical'; nor would
formal reason prevail indiffer-
ent to men, hovering above or
below them. For, as 'congealed
spirit,' the machine is not neu-
tral; technical reason is the so-
cial reason which rules a spe-
cific society but which can
change in its very structure.
As technical rea.son, it can l)e-
come the technique of libera-
tion."

Irony

Prof. Marcuse concluded
that, althougii Wel>er consider-
ed this liberation to be an im-
possible Utopia, it becomes in-
creasingly difiicult, even in
Weber's terms, to find any ra-
tionality in the "ever more
solid 'shell of bondage' which
is being constructed." Perhaps,
Marcuse suggests, there is "in
Max Weber's concept of reason
the irony which understands
but disavows. Does he by any
chance mean to say: and that is
what you call 'reason'?"

After the long ovation by the
audience which heard and,
hopefully, fully grasped what
Prof. Marcuse had said. Prof.
Lubasz took the podium to
quote from memory a pas.sage
from the end of Weber's PROT-
ESTANT ETHIC AND THE
SPIRIT OF CAPITALISM in
support of Marcuse's closing
suggestion that Wel)er really
appreciated the nature of capi-
talist 'reason': "For of the last
stage of this cultural develop-
ment, it might well be truly
said: 'Specialists without spirit,
sensualists without heart; this
nullity imagines that it has at-
tained a level of civilization
never before achieved'." But
Prof. Lubasz did not quote the
next sentence: "But this brings
us to th.> world of judgments of
value and of faith, with which
this purely historical discussion
need not be burdened."

world. Similarly, our decision iV,T, ^/,J2JlUVr.Z^^SJ^l^^^^^ ^^^ies reach college age and find their parents can't pc

to attend the university, has
removed us from the 'within-
ness' of life in the flatlands. We
chose a temporal and spatial
alienation which has invested
our vision with perspective and
distance. We have felt an in-
tellectual responsibility for
the world, but we have been
charged with lew responsibili-
ties. The movement into de-
tachment is not irreversible. It
is the descent which grants
validity to the climb.

Just as Hans experienced dis-
ease of the body, he also ex-
perienced disease of the mind,
for there is such a thing as
being sick of knowledge. We
have felt ourselves at times in
much the same situation. We
have, in a sense, fallen among
the sick, for we have been ini-
tiated into the cult of knowl-
ed^'c.

But it is the very same in-
strument of affliction which has
been the instrument of the
hejtling process. The quest for
a sacred grail has stamped us
each with a certain communal-
ity of circumstances. But even
more so it has stamped us with
individuality. We have come to
realize that each of us has a
nature wihch conlorms to no
other and which cannot be
made, by whatever authority,
to do so. It is through the uni-
versity experience, by making
its knowledge relevant to our-
selves, that we prevent the
laming of our personalities and
assure our uniqueness.

The University, not as an in-
stitutional concept but as an
access to the experience of

ry 01 the flatlands. We have
had the hours and the tools to
fashion our own dream poem
of humanity. As with the neces-
sity for the unity of mind and
body, the poem cannot be com-
plete unless it encompas.ses the
duality of life: the luxuriant
beauties and enlightenment be-
hind which stands the temple
of blood-sacrifice. The pursuit
of knowledge is the trajectory
which brings us to the vision of
that duality. At Brandeis we
have been privileged to know
men and women who have ded-
icated themselves to that en-
lightenment; we have al.so been
privileged to know in other ca-
pacities the executioners and
the disguist^d sacrificial priests.
At this juncture we must recon-
struct and reintegrate all tiiat
we have experienced at this
sanatorium, at this university,
on the mountain. Then we can

assuming college enrollment for their offspring
— as so many more parents have taken to do-
ing. The "bumper crops" of students may
necessitate alterations in the admissions process
and counseling practices (including vocational
planning; a B.A. is no longer sufficient for most
professional jobs; investment of time and money
in the pursuit of additional training and de-
grees becomes the rule more than the excep-
tion). Political and scicntihc changes are in-
tioducing questions of the relevance of our
educational curriculum and philosophy; the
growing number oi "second-generation" col-
lege students have insisted on reconsideration
of the class and A-B-C-D grading system (the
sentiment is obvious, while the cause is not;
tiiat many of us have college-educated parents
may well allect our attitude toward learning
in striking ways). The need for experimenta-
tion is present and obvious. Administrative
leiuctance to follow new paths is equally clear.
The "radical middle" comes up against a
tough problem in its attitude on sit-ins. The
solution chosen by our University administra-
tors is not an atypical one. Civil riglits sit-ins

say. as did Hans: "I havt taken ^ar*-^ applauded and encouraged (by at least
•' one Brandeis Dean) while student demonstra-

tir^ns on the subject of local educational con-
roversies are attacked with all administraiive
weapons, gross hypocrisy not excluded. Some-
how, the similarity is unobserved. It is not
clear to administrators (anywhere, I suppose)
that the subjects of absolutist rule (Selma
Negroes and, in some cases, Brandeis students)
may find the paths to democratic alteration of
conditions blocked or non-existent. The only
recourse then is to dramatize and attack the
undesired situation by public announcements
and debates.

The claim that college students must be told
what to do in cases in which non-college stu-
dents of the same age are free to act as they
will, is one I would discard in the manner 1
would reject the as.sertion that Alabama Ne-
groes shouldn't be allowed various civil rights
because they neither need nor desire them. The
radical-middle Brandeis administration wins
again, however, in a typical double-stand
manner.

1 could go on but I won't. The major point
is that long ago (as Brandeis history relates) a

tration" is, at Brandeis, only a synonym for
that six-lettered last name which must strike as
much fear into the Ekan of Students as it does
into the lowliest freshman or untenured in-
structor.

And this is at the heart of the problem. In
answering a student question as to why Dr.
Herbert Marcuse (the most brilliant member of
the ever-increasing number of "former Bran-
deis professors") was not granted tenure until

we
possibly know what his health chart will

stock."

The initiation has come a
long way. We are ready to be
released, for we have had an
opportunity to discover lor our-
selves a "positive reason for
exertion," and a positive reason
for commitment. The expulsion
from one configuration oi Time
and Space into a new one is
not, however, a termination. It
is a point in a continuum. We
return from the mountain to
the plain transformed. We re-
turn to engage ourselves and to
u.se our knowledge. Hans Cas-
torp was called back by a
thunderbolt. We are called by
a march of pomp and circum-
stance. Adelaute.

Is Dr. Sachar himself immune to those same
laws which he apparently feared might work
upon the world-renowned and respected pro-
fessor? Granting his unbounded c^nergy does
he still have the capacity to come to grips
with a student body that demands a say in mat-
ters directly affecting their own lives, and that
has a duty and a right to contribute fresh ideas
to the concept of a university without being
treated in a continually patronizing manner?

The answer to both these questions, at least
from the view-point of this particular new
member of the Brandeis alumni, is an emphatic
"no." The student body demands and deserves
(for all the praise Dr. Sachar gives us in public,
anyway) a figure with power in the administra-
tion who is closer to us both chronologically and
spiritually. There is no reason why Brandeis
cannot have, as do many similar institutions,
both a president and a chancellor, the one to
handle the incredibly difficult tasks of fund-
raising and administrating (and few men have
Dr. Sachar's capabilities in tht sc matters), the
other to take specific charge of student affairs
and problems.

This solution seems amazingly simple, and
would restore the students to a position in the
university at least somewhc^re above the luight
of perennial toad-stool. But, unfortunately, it
is probably out of the question. "Power cor-
rupts," but no one who has it, alas, ever wishes
to share it. So there will be no chancellor, no
effectively interested and impartial Dean of
Students, no position for the students other
than as transitory four-year phantoms who
have high college-board scores and admirable
statistical records to be cited for Ford Founda-
tion Grants, and whose parents pay, for awhile,
a small part of the overhead costs.

Undoubtedly, as the President finishes this
essay, he will mark it off as the work of an
isolated and unusual malcontent. He may even
use the tired words "disrespectful, hateful,
scuttlebutt, rabble-rousing, etc."

It's too bad, Dr Sachar. In my four years
here I've been able to harn a bit and grow
somewhat. Over the same period, your Univer-
sity has firmly locked itself into middle-iiged-
ness. Financially stcure, cliche-riddt>n. conv«'n-

entific work or of his teaching."
They, as well as I, requested
rea.sons for the Administra-
tion's action. To date, no rea-
sons have been given, neither
to me nor to my department,
other than that my termination
by the Administration is in the
"best interests" of the Univer-
sity and of the Department oJ
Psychology.

Early this year, my depart-
ment chairman sent me the fol-
lowing letter:

"As you know, the depart-
ment last year recommended
you for promotion (and ten-
ure). After subsequent negoti-
ations, it modified its stand to
request a regular three -year
le-appointment (at your pre-
sent level). We regret that an
administrative decision beyond
our control made such a re-
appointment impossible. On
October 13th (this Fall), the
President and the Dean re-
viewed the decision, but re-
fused to reverse it."

Some students have won-
dered if my appointment at
Harvard Medical School means
that 1 will be giving up under-
graduate teaching. This is not
the case. I will be teaching my
Psychology la course, The Per-
son in the Social Context, next
spring at the Boston Branch of
the University of Massachu-
setts. I was pleased, four years
ago, to return to Brandeis from
Harvard, where 1 had my ap-
pointment in its Department of
Social Relations. Considering
the present "atmosphere" at
Brandeis, I am happier

Gentlemen:

I would like to be permitted
a short comment on the Con-

that reachf d each speaker. This
control and the turning on that
one time of the tape recorder
were the only controls c xercised
throughout the entire piece.

I submit that the manipula-
tion of volume controls to de-
termine how much of the iden-
tical sound goes through a se-
ries of speakers, plus the one-
time turning on of a tape re-
corder (the only active role
Mr. Lucier took in the piece),
is not music or art of any kind.

Let me reiterate that Mr.
Lucier had no conscious con-
trol whatsoever over the brain

I would compare the tech-
nique that Mr. Lucier used to
taking photographs of Larry
Rivers' brain and displaying
them in the recent exhibit.

If, on the other hand, such
photographs were incorporated
into a work of art: surveying,
say. the Dutch Mijsters. Na-
poleon, and Big Bertha; then
the totality might be called a
work of art.

What Mr. Lucier was in es-
sence doing was giving us a

mean that one should be able
to turn the sound-track off and
still "get the message"; the
point is that there is no mes-

can state the theme of a |

Hippolytus, yet only as a
means of .structural reference;
knowledge of the myth is com-
pletely unnece.ssary to compre-
hension and enjoyment of the
flow of images. One sees a
ferry crossing the river, the
phy.-,itidn siltint^ on board and
Khots briefly inserted — for only
one or several trames, — of llie
face of Paul, the main charac-
ter. The various shots build up
to evoke a feeling, an expres-
sion of love that could never
be stated. The various emotion-
al expressions cohere into one
overall flow winch evokes the
feeling of tragedy; but this in
not tragedy in literary terms
of the tragic Haw and fall but
in terms of the over-all feeling
of purity which Greek tragedy,
outside of its literary thematic
content is supposed to evoke.

Kenneth Anger comes closest
to uppi-oximating the form of
the montage film envisioned
by Eisenstein with his master-
piece Scorpio Rising. Clips

jiixtafKised together with rele-
vant rock 'n' roll songs on the
soundtrack to create a new
whole, an expression of mascu-
linity in terms of homosexual-
ity, of Christianity in terms of
fascism, of fascism in terms of
masculinity, etc. These things
are never stated in terms of
X y, nor does Anger intend
tills. Different things are in-
tended to refer to each other
without being definitely linked
in the way they would in lit-
erature. Images allow for sug-
gestion rather than statement
and associations may be im-
plied without being absolutely
chained as they would be by
words.

Of all film-makers, the one
least oi>en to verbal discussion
is Stan Brakhage vho, more
than any other, retains the orig-
inal purity of the image with-
out imposing meanings upon it.
He has been making films since

Dean Morrissey felt that the
greatest danger is in the long-
range trend toward increased
costs, because no plateau is yet
in sight. He noted that "costs

dent will be prevented from

financial difficulties.

the single frame and painting
on film, he is the most ad-
vanced in the use of super-im-
position, using as many as four
images over each other in Dog
Star Man.

These and many other film-
makers whose numbers are in-
creasing are gradually uncover-
ing the rich potential of film as
an expressive medium. Their
aim is not to baffle or confuse
as many think, but to reveal;
not to state, but to present. The
confusion on the part of many
sptH^tators, or even the bore-
dom, is often either fear or un-
willingness to look deeper into
the less common aspects of the
familiar objects which the film-
maker presents. The aim of the
film-maker has been expressed
in these words by Stan Brak-
hage in the opening of his
"Metaphors on Vision": "Im-
agine an eye unruled by man-
made laws of perspective, an
eye unprejudiced by composi-
tional logic, an eye which does
not respond to everything but
which must know each object
encountered in life through an
adventure of perception. . . .
Imagine a world alive with in-
comprehensible objects and
shimmering with an endless
variety of movement and in-
numerable gradations of color.
Imagine a world before the 'be-
ginning was the word.' "

Toshi Ichiyanagi's Music for
Piano #4 is a study in sound
and touch in that the sound
produced is a direct result of
continuous friction-making by
the performer.
The Unique and Unrepeatable

Since no personal emotional
message is being communicated
by the composer by means of
relationships, there is no need
for beginnings, middles and
ends of pieces with climaxes
and points of rest. Length be-
comes unimportant and a per-
former, like a swimmer, may
stay in as long as he wants to.
Any idea of contrast or change
of pace is superfluous in the
light of the infinite variety in
the i«»unds themselves.

Because each performance is
unique and unrepeatable there
is a sense of urgency about it.
You pay more attention be-
cause it will never happen
again. The Japanese composer
kosugi makes each piece for
one occasion only and the pian-
ist David Tudor avoids making
recordings if he can. Both Cage
and Tudor advise against the
standardization of materials or
technique in order to keep open
as many doors as possible.

Following the experimental
tradition of Charles Ives and
Edgard Varese, Cage made
deep explorations into the na-
ture of sound in his early per-
cussion music, music for tlie
prepared piano and in such for-
ward-looking works as the
Imaginary Landscape No. 3
(1942) which used audio fre-
quency oscillators, variable
speed turntables and generator
whines. His more recent Car-
tridge Music of 1960 reveals
the nature of small sounds by
amplification in the same way
that a microscope reveals small
objects by visual enlargement.

Music

rials such as wood, metal, glass,
and rubber plus various meth-
ods of sound production such as
bowing, scaping, snapping and
tapping. Richard Maxtield has
used the sound of steam and
human coughing as source ma-
terial while James Tenney. Ben
Patterson and George Brecht
have used Elvis Presley, paper
tearing and automobile sounds.

Recorders

Electromagnetic tape has
played a curious role in the de-
velopment of this music. It was
the direct contact with sound
on tape without the written
middleman that set the com-
poser free and broke the limi-
tations prescribed by the score.
On the other hand, nothing is
more lixed than a composed
piece of electronic music on
tape, the performance of which
never changes. To avoid this
fixedness. Cage, in both Wil-
liams Mix (1952) and Fontana
Mix (1958), composed indeter-
minate scores, the realizations
of which produce different ver-
sions of these pieces. Later in
his Rozart Mix of 1965 Cage
supplied a reservoir of tape
loops for the manipulation of
several performers in a live
situation.

Cage's tendency toward thea-
tre is shared l)y many young
composers, including Morton
Subotnick, Ramond Sender and

Pauline Oliveros whose pro-
grams at the San Francisco
Tape Music Center use instru-
mental and electronic music
along with films, slide projec-
tions and dance. Also working
in this vein are Gordon Mumma
and Robert Ashley of the Once
Festival in Ann Arbor whose
concerts often reach epic pro-
portions. Composers outside of
America who follow this trend
are Mauricio Kagel and Dieter
Schnebel in Germany, Sylvano
Bussotti and Giuseppe Chiari
in Italy. Karl-Erik Welin Swe-
den and a group of artists and
composers in Japan called the
High Red Center. The reason
for this tendency is twofold.
First of all, theatrical action is
a substitute for the traditional
written score that sounds are
made as the result of actions
instead of visual symbols, and
secondly, the performance sit-
uation is made livelier when
the eye as well as the ear is
delighted.

Boston Won't Nix
Louise Day Hicks

Boston's preliminary election for School Committee on
September 21 was an overwhelming mandate for School
Committee Chairman Mrs. Louise Day Hicks and the Com-
mittee majority. Incumbents captured the top five places
on a ballot of sixteen candidates. Ten names will be on the
November ballot. The reform group, Citizens for the

Boston Schools, including in-j,

cumbcnt Artliur Gartland. se-

cured nomination of all its five
candidates.

The primary was lal>ellcd as
a contest between the School
Committee majority consisting
of Mrs. Hicks, Thomas Eisen-
stadt, and William O'Connor
and the reform slate of Melvin
King, Velia D'Cesare, John F.
X. Gaquin, George Parker and
Gartland. Committeeman Jo-
seph Lee, whose positions on
the issues separating the two
groups wavered back and forth,
was also nominated. The tenth
man selected was John Mc-
Donough.

The citizens' group cam-
paign was waged on the issues
of the slow pace of new school
construction, lack of enough
teachers, low reading levels in
the schools, and the too few col-
lege preparatory courses. The
failure of the School Committee
to provide funds to bus children
in order to relieve overcrowded
and segregated schools was also
attacked. The School Commit-
tee majority answered the at-
tack by stressing its belief in
the concept of the neighborhood
school and refused to admit the
existence of racial imbalance.

The citizens' group was quite
pleased with this year's vote
unlike the small turnout two
years ago in Negro wards. In-
creased efforts at voter regis-
tration was one cause. Regis-
tration was aided to a large ex-
tent by college .students, many
of whom were from Brandeis.
One student worker comment-
ed, however, that she had
worked in the South during the
summer on registration and
she found there a feeling and
purpose lacking in the Roxbury
area of Boston. "The people
here." she said, "live alone be-
hind closed doors."

Student Charged With Rape;
$800 Collected for Defense

On June 11, 1965, the New York City Housing Authority arrested a Brandeis Uni-
versity sophomore, Alfred Gonza^^^ue He was accused of three rapes, sudomv, assault,
and violation of the Sullivan Act (carrying a concealed deadly weapon). (Jonza^^ue
was held in Bronx City Prison until last August- At the request of the District Attor-
ney, he was sent to Bellevue Hospital for psychiatric observati(>n. Upon completicui of
this examination, Mr- Gonzague will be formally arraigned. According to his lawyer,
Mr. Gonzague, contrary to pop-j
ular opinion, has not confessed

nor has he signed any state
ments of guilt.

Committee Arranges Defense

When the arrest became
known, a group of Brandeis stu-
dents became concerned about

an adequate defense for Gon-
zague. After Mr. Gonzague's
mother dismissed the court-ap-
pointed lawyer, they contacted
the law firm of Hollman, Tem-
kin, and Ginsberg through the

Enrollment Decrease Foreseen

Nearly 1400 undergraduates are being housed on campus this year, an increase of
more than 100 students over last year. The increase was possible because of the avail-
ability of four dormitories in Ridgewood which had previously housed only graduate
students. The four dorms account for some 88 new undergraduate places.

The exact number of resident students, as of September 16, was 1395. Another

228 students have off-campus accommodations. The latter figure, representing pri-

^marily Juniors and Seniors,

Student Council
Collects 89% of
Activities Fee

Hollman accepted the case, set-
ting the fee at $230. The stu-
dents, after learning that ex-
penses for the case would ex-
ceed the fee, drafted a letter
seeking financial aid for the
needed investigation, court
costs, and clerical fees. The let-
ter was reviewed by Mr. Holl-
man, and then sent to all Bran-
deis students. Over $800 has
been collected and sent to the
lawyer.

Information Asked

The student committee con-
sisting of Allen Zerkin. Harris
Glueckman, Frank Bloch, Bri-
an Marcus, Frances Forman,
and Roger Barkin, asks anyone
who has information on Mr.
Gonzague's whereabouts on
March 17 (St. Patrick's Day),
April 16, or May 31 to notify
Dean Leonard Zion as soon as
possible.

Student Council reports that
as of September 29, 1453 under-
graduates, 89% of the total,
have paid the $30 Student Ac-
tivities Fee. In the first year of
graduate students' SAF collec-
tion, seventy students have paid
the $10 fee.

The budget, set at $48,602.
was approved in a referendum
Septeml)er 30. 546 to 206. Be-
cause the budget has been al-
located on the basis of 100%
collection of SAF, Council re-
ports that anything less than
total collection will result in a
proportionate decrease in stu-
dent organizations* allocations.
Only those who have paid the
fee will be admitted to the
Sunday movie, Cholmonde-
ley's, and most other student
events. Some activities, yet to
be determined, will be open on

IS nearly identical to that of
last year.

Campus dormitories are pres-
ently filled to their capacity.
In anticipation of a possible
housing shortage next year,
Leonard Zion, Associate Dean
for Student Affairs, feels that
the number of Freshmen enter-
ing Brandeis next year will
have to be significantly lower
than the 530 figure of this year.

Dean Zion also anticipates
the construction of new hous-
ing facilities in the not too dis-
tant future. Any additional
housing would be integrated
into existing quadrangles.

In an effort to equalize facil-
ities throughout the campus.
Dean Zion's oflice in coordina-
tion with representatives of the
Student Council has been re-
assessing the status of certain
rooms in the Castle and in
room in the Castle and in
Ridgewood. which have been
converted into doubles. A few
rooms have already been con-
verted to singles.

In another measure to im-
prove housing conditions new

a fee basis to the SAF-less stu-
dents. Enforcement, according j f'-'^n'^'^i^t* will shortly be added
to Student Council, will be ' to the Ridgewood

strict and sure. Disbursements
will be carefully controlled.
No club will Ije permitted to
run over its budget

One major event to be spon-
sored by Student Council and
the junior and sophomore
classes will be the annual
Charity Week. October 23-31.

Scheduled events include an
auction, hayride, cabaret night
and concerts — with Dick
Gregory and Ian and Sylvia —
the Cabaret night and the con-
certs will be free to those who
have paid the student activi-
ties fee For ofT-campus dates
of people who have paid SAF,
combination tickets will be
available for purchase. For all
others, prices are higher.

Both concerts will be given
at Shapiro Athletic Center,
with Dick Gregory set for 2:00
p m and Ian and Sylvia at
8:30 pm., October 30.

c o m m o n
lounges. In addition, an effort to
coordinate the furniture in
Ma.ssell Quadrangle has been
undertaken. The possibility of
converting certain upper floor
rooms to lounges in Massell
will be reconsidered only upon
the building of new living ac-
commodations.

CIC Cans Campus
Course Critique

The Committee for an Ideal Campu.s will not publish
it« critique of Brandeis courses ami pn^fessors because of
insufficient response to the ik>I1 last spring. C'ommittee head
Ropier Gottlieb, '68, said that only one-third of students
and faculty responded to the questionnaire. Des[)ite some
initial controversy over pr(»per sponsorship, the survey
was backed by the administra-^
tion. The Student Council also
issued a statement urging stu-

Religious Leaders Conference on
Peoce; and Dr. Donald Hindley

ment. The Forum will foke pl^co

dent to comply with the under
taking.

Gottlieb proposed the cri-
tique to the Committee last
spring primarily to aid fresh-
men in selecting coursQS and al-
so to allow students some influ-
ence over tenure decisions by
keeping the administration
aware of student opinion of
faculty members.

Questionnaire Distributed

A steering committee re-
.searched the project, appoint-
ing a .study committee to eacii
of the four .schools: Humanities,
Creative Arts, Social Sciences,
and Science. Teachers received
questionnaires on prerequisites,
reading, and assignment loads
for each of their cour.ses. They
were al.so asked whether they
graded p a p e r s themselves
Questionnaires distributed to
each student contained a para-
graph explaining their nature
and purpose and requesting the
student's cla.ss, sex, and field of
concentration. Students were
a.sked for a general rating of
each: A — excellent, B— worth-
while, C — fair, D — poor, and
E — useless, and for comments
on its teaching quality, read-
ings, suitability for majors and
non-majors, general difficulty,
and fairness of grading.

According to enrollment sta-
tistics obtained from Mr Duhig
only fifteen to twenty-five per
cent of the students answered

the survey. Roger Gottlieb
said the conwnillee decided not
to publish its findings l>ecause
the insufficient response would
not have been "a mature or re-
sponsil)Ie statement of student
opinion." He noted, however,
that the majority of statements
about teachers were favorable,
and that "becau.se of the mdo-
lence of the students in this
matter, they kept from them-
selves cin institution which
would have improved their edu-
cation."

Elliot Evans, chairman of the
Student Council Educ.dional
Policies Committee, announced,
"If CIC or other students are
still interested in such a cri-
ti(jue, my commiltee will co-
0|)er:ite with them and lielp
prepare it."

Council Election

An election for an interim
sophomore represent a* ive to
fill the vacancy left by the
resignation of Shirley Young
will he held on Thursday,
October 21.

Any sophomore desiring to
fill the vacated Council posi-
tion must submit his name to
the lilertions Committee of
the Student Council by
Thursday, October 7. In the
eventuality of more than
three sophomores applying
for the spot, a primary elec-
tion would be held Thurs-

Personalized Education

()n»' })n)ross<)r vvalktMl into his first class this year,
stared at the crowd inside, and tlien luo]\ed at the dour
niiniWcr to make >^uve that he was in the ri^ht room. The
incitlent was ty])ital. No one could believe that the classes
were so crowded. First we thou^lit that stiulents were
shopjiin^ around more than usual, but it so(;n became
evident that classes were i-eally ]>iy:^v\\ Even advanced
courses in the lOU's had forty to fifty stude)}ts, while only
a few years ago five or ten would liave been cNjmmon.

Many freshmen were unaljle to take Music I, a course
heretoiore oik'U to them. Philosophy 1 al)andoned the prac-
tice ot eacli pj'ofessor teaching an individual section and
started a large lecture class. In the sciences, (lesi>ite the
opening of (jcrsteirzang (Quadrangle, undergraduates must
still work in Ford and some are not allowed to take labs
already full.

As the University grows the pr-o))lem of large classes
will intensify. Hrantleis will soon have 2000 uuilergradu-
ates and ways nujst be found to adjust to the i)roblems
that this will create.

Of course, the lirst answer is for the University to
hire more teachers. Hut it takes time (an<l money) to hire
<juality teachers. This alone, however, would not c«jm-
l)letely solve the problem of bigger classes. (Jeneral Fduca-
tion classes will become even larger and the more basic
and popular courses in all departmenis wouhl also gjow.

These larger classes create a more im])ersonal educa-
tional atmosphere. Professors are forced to use ine.xpeii-
eiiced graduate students as section leaders and graders.
Often, these giaduate stu<lents serve as the forced inter-
mediaries l)etween students and professors who are unable
to read th(^ papers they assign. Professors who do not use
graders must reduce the amount of written work required.
0bvi<rusly, no one benefits fi-oin this situation.

We prop^)se instead the goal of i)ersonalize(l educa-
tion. Individual work with a professor imi)roves a stu-
<len't wiiting ability, sharpens his research technicpie, and
provides an oppt>rtunity for him to get a clear idea of
what professional scholarship involves.

New educational methotls should be adoi)ted to com-
pensate for larger classes. We strongly favor the adoption
of the four course load. Since the number of courses
would not be reduced under the plan, the average size of
classes wouhl immediately decrease.

Teachers must be willing to make advising more than
the card signing effort that it now re])resents.

Some foim of the tutoring system as practiced in

European universities and such American schools as llaV-

vard and Swarthmore ought to be adopted. This could

involve individual instruction with directed writings and
readings chosen by the student and the tutor. This would
simplify the current maze of independent rCvsearch courses
wliich fill the catalogue. If the ju'ogram were tried on an
experimental basis with honor students, the increase in
teaching load could be kei)t at a minimum.

Research must begin into ways of combatting the
educational impersonality with which we are faced It
must be on a l)asis of cooj)eration between facility and
students. The Educational Policies Committee is now form-
ing student-faculty committees in several dei^artments to
organize research and discussion of new ideas. If enough
students volunteer to help this can be expaJided to all
departnicjiLs,

Letters to the Editor

Towii-(^<>wii

This year we hope to im-
prove Brandeis-Waltham rela-
tions by establishing a tutor-
ing project at Waltharn High
School. Mr. Gallagher, the
princi))al, is anxious to have
his students receive instruc-
tion, and has invited us to use
s c h o o 1 classrooms after tlie
regular day sessions have
ended.

The need for such a tutoring
project is rather self-evident.
Brandeis currt ntly does have
many Waltham p r o g r a m s:
Walt ham science clas.ses use
our computer, a few excep-
tional students attend our
classes, and Brandeis faculty
advise the Waltham Higli
School history department,
work with retarded children,
and even \'isit as guest artists.
Yet one trip to Du.ikin' Do-
nuts tells you wliat a gap
exists between the two com-
munities. Serious cases of vio-
lence have been all tt)o fre-
quent — and they continue.
Security was shot at eaily this
summer from a passing car!
This year permanent Biandeis
security has Ix^en doubled
(many security personnel in
the pa.st worked part-time).
The tutoring project will not
deal directly with these van-
dals. It has been e.4ablished
that the Waltham boys on
campus are mostly under 16
and our real vandalism prob-
lem comes from boys who
drive here from a wide sur-
rounding area. It is also not
true that, "Waltham has the
nations second highest juve-
nile deiinquoncy rate." Actu-
ally it is the lower third. Plac-
id Newton has a higher rate.

What our program will do
is establish expanding person-
al communication between
members of the two commu-
nities. With tutoring as our
starting point, we hope to ex-
pand the program with ath-
letic activities, discussion

groups, art and drama work-
shops, etc. Mr. Olin, Athletic
Director, has suggested using
the gym's facilities in our rec-
reational program. Mr. Kane,
A.Ksistant to the President, has
suggested a tutor-tutec meal
in the dining halls. Also, we
are coordinating our activities
with those Brandeis students
already woiking at the Wal-
tham Boys' Club. But what we
need most are tutors; N.S M.
trained tutors are, of course,
most valuable.

Dennis Brunn, President of
the Civil Rights Group, has
given us his support: "During
three years of participating in
N.S.M. tutorial and recreation-
al progiams in Roxbury, I have
.-em many Eiaiuicis slucienls
develop an awareness a ad re-
.spectful understanding for dif-
ferences of race, economic
class, and cuJtiues. Any cf-
iorls to face Waltham with
equal awareness and under-
standing deserve our support
and participation." It's just a
short bus ride to Waltham
High; we plan one hour ses-
sions at the scliool. I hope that
many oi yuu will sign the
available tutor lists in the din-
ing halls.

tion, and student leaders. The
support of the ^student Council
was gained. Forms were dis-
tributed to faculty and .stura nts
and collected by a large num-
ber of CIC members. A struc-
ture of evaluation and edition
was set up lor work over tiic
summer — a structure \\hi;h
moved smoothly to the < nd of
publishing the Ciitiquo duiing
Orientation 19(>5. But the Cri-
tique cannot be published be-
cause the response irom both
students and laeulty was insuf-
fjcient. Total response fjom
students and faculty was ap-
proximately one-third: the ra-
tio of re.rponse to enrojlmenl in
paitieiilar classes ranged from

15'^; to 25';; .

The tragedy of the failure of
the Critique (insofar as the re-
sult V. as a failure) is tii.it in
form it was an institution v. liich
could have broa<iened the \ria-

To the Brandeis Community:

"The Critique of Teachers
and Courses, " a project of the
Committee foi an Ideal Cam-
pus, will not be published. It
will not be published because
of the limited response of the
student body, because the pro-
portion of responses per class
to students enrolled in class is
prohibitive of respon.sible and
authoritative statement.

The Criti(jue was designed to
"inform students, faculty, and
administration about student
opinion on courses"; it would
contain course information
from teachers presently un-
available to students. Planning
for the Critique was begun
early in the 1965 spring semes-
ter and its benefits and disad-
vantages, problems of publica-
tion and sponsorship were
discussed thoroughly by the
Steering Committee of the CIC.
Advice and opinion were so-
lictcd from faculty, administra-

d< nts, and a(iiiiinistrati<Mi. a
trialogue which at tiie piesent
time is all too lacking in sub-
stance and meaning. Perliaps
the Criticjue was too strurtured
for the small Brandeis commu-
nity and other forms are
needed — iniormal discosMons
betwe* n students and laeulty
committees, consultation oi siu-
dei:ts on tenure decisions, an
unpublished siuvey of student
opinion. Or perhaps the natuial
indolence of the Brandeis com-
niunity will prevent a broaticn-
ing of the trialogue on this
most inipoitant of subjects; aod
Bs long as students get their
credits and faculty theii salar-
ies, neithei- will make .'m eflort
to tell the other what the whole
business is about and how
much it is worth.

It is my hope that the CIC's
Critique project was not worth-
less. The consensual summ.'ries
of the polls for individual
courses are being sent to indi-
vidual faculty members. Simi-
lar projects in the future will,
I hope, receive greater support;
and, in general, greater con-
sideration may be given to the
value of courses at Brandeis

In an era in which the indi-
vidual is all too frequently a
rat on a treadmill, we cannot
afford to let Brandeis V^ecome a
place of the keepers and the

kept.

SCOPE Registers Successes in South;
Civil Rights Group Campaigns in Boston

Ky MARTIN PERNICK

This summer, over 30 Brandeis students took part in gfrassroots civil rights action. The work was carried on in the

Boston area through the Brandeis Civil Rights Group and in the south by SCOPE, the Southern Christian Leadership

Conference summer project.

The Brandeis SCOPE project was a program of political and commimity organization, and voter registration.

Al)out fifteen Brandeis st/udents sf)ent the summer working in three counties of South Carolina: Calhoun, Kershaw

and Richland, which included the city of Columbia.

Among the concrete accom-.|i

plishments of the SCOPE proj- opportunities available to them, ton's Northern Student Move- tian Center in Roxbury. On

local children

ect were the registration of
some 3000 voters, the integra-
tion of two laundromats and a
theater, the formation of a

boy's club, and the organiza-
tion of a group of local people
to continue voter registration
work during the winter. The
major accomplishment of the
group, though, accrording to
Bill Kornrich, '67, a SCOPE
leader, was in the personal con-
tact made with tlie people of
the three counties.

SCOPE'S main problem, ac-
cording to Kornrich, was the
people's ignorance of even the
most basic facts of government.
There were several instances of
rural Negroes who had never
heard of President Johnson.
One of the project's main goals
was to teach local residents the

in terms of voting, federal laws, ment) had many of the same Savin
local health and housing codes, objectives and problems as did were
While much of the SCOPE

work was necessarily short-
range, the boys' club and the lo-
cal organizations the group set
up are expected to be perma-
nent. SCOPE is maintaining
contact with these organizations
and some members are planning
to return to South Carolina over
the winter rcnress. Next sum-
mer, the group again plans to
send students to South Carolina
to continue work. Kornrich
ventured a prc^diction that if
half of the unregistered Ne-
groes in the stale could be per-
suaded to vote. Senator Strom
Thurmond could be defeated in
his bid for re-election in 196G.
The Roxbury project of the
Brandeis Civil Rights Group

St., the

guided in constructing
SCOPE in the South. Special their own playground in an
emphasis was put on education empty lot. The playground was
anci on community action and then incorporated into a pre-

awareness. The Roxbury proj-
ect was atso more long-term in
nature than was the SCOPE
work. Almost all of the activ-
ities of the Civil Rights Group
will continue through the win-
ter in one form or another.

One of the main tasks under-
taken by the group was a voter
registration clrive in Roxbury,
Boston's Negro ghetto. This
campaign is still underway as
a part of the group's direct ac-
tion program. Other parts of
the project included a day
camp, nursery school, Project
lleadslart class, and a tutoring
program. The.se activities were
set up at the Blue Hill Chri.s-

school, which will continue
throughout the winter.

The Civil Rights Group was
also active in tlie planning and
execution of "Operation Exo-
dus," the program under which
Negro parents are sending their
children out of the ghetto to
predominantly white

What follows is a sort of rule-

senses) the President's War on

analyze the benefits that are or
are not accruing to the poor

The first factor that the ad-

Unwilling to view itself

the white community must
see Watts, not as a riot di-

The press reported this as a

do the work it desires to con-
tract for, and — more important-
ly— that its proposed services
will contribute to the abolition
of poverty. In fact, however,
political considerations must
neces.sarily enter the process of
program allocations.

The root of this unspeakable
evil, of course, is money. The
Democratic Administration is
running a program in which a
large amount of public money
is to be distributed to local
agencies. This, prima facie, in-
volves bringing new funds into
local economies; it involves

s kind of
political maneuvering. So far,
the claim of "political football"'
is unjustified.

However, political football is
played with the war on pov-
erty, and we should recognize
it where it occurs (although it
rarely comes to the public at-
tention). For example, although
it is kosher for each project ap-
plicant to ask his representa-
tives for assistance, and it is
kosher for those representa-
tives to express their interest

money and jobs. In addition, it
is natural that the poor who
benefit are going to look favor-
ably on those who made it pos-
sible for them to get in on a
poverty project.

Limited Resources

If the poverty war had
enough funds so that it could
approve every local proposal,
the problem of politics would
be reduced. However, in this
world of limited resources,
each allocation must entail
choices, hard choices, which
must daily be made by admin-
istrators. The situation is com-

ing case is decidedly not ac-
ceptable. One program finds
that because Congress has re-
duced its operating level, it
must in turn reduce its opera-
tions in each and every state.
The chairman of the committee
which passes appropriations for
this program decides that his
own state is holy, and threatens
the administrator that any re-

or the performance to become
so serious that suziiki was re-
duced to totally inexplicable
tears at one point.

Despite distinct similarities
to the cafe episode of last
year's Hi-Charlie production,
**Fred"?!. in certain original
lines (e.g., the repeated "spir-i-
tual relationship"), someof the
music, and even some perform-
ances (notably hugh*s and Su-
zuki's), some of the acting of-
fered a welcome contrast to the
general quality of the show.
Judy Gronim as suzuki was
abundantly sprightly, and her
verse was responsible for the
show's pacing and sustenance.
Although careless direction
permitted her a good deal of
amateurish movement, her gen-
eral agility and uninhibitedness
reproduced the motions of a
caricature coiiimendably. But
it lost even its baby-beatnik
cuteiuss in Miss Gronim's dis-
tinctly cheer- kadersque boun-
ciiu'.s and voice inflections
which urged. "C'mon. kids, let's
really YLLL!" (And they
did. . . .) It was often diiTiCult
to a.scertain her intended age,
but tiiat's u problem with post-
pubescent people cast in pre-
pubcscent roles. Miss Gronim
deserved lu r exclamation
point, if mainly for her limit-
less energy.

It was clear that Bobby She-
vach introduced most of the
origiivd material into the show,
via the character of henry mar-
tin, with the u.se of broad pan-
tomime. His "bits" were more
clever than his characterization,
which was tedious gimickery,
and he stole three or four de-
lightful moments of the show.

Of particular note were ihe
performance of Judith Sachs'
and Peter Chal)ot. Miss Sachs'
acting ability far transcended
the nature of her tiny roles as
school- and dancing-marms.
and she executed them to per-
feclicHi. Mr. Chabot's portrayal
of the reciting poet was con-
trol kil and very funny. These
roles could have been profit-
ably elalwraled. as could those
of the two .sets of par e ii t s.
who.se binary roles were aptly
handk'd by jody Mailman and
Andy Harmon. Margo JelVer-
son v.'ns an elegant maid, but
this character really required
the ".nammy" finality that em-
barra.sses enlightened audi-
ences (The lack of the appro-
priate spirit for such a role is
another reason for revising or
rejecting the book as a script.)

Ken Shapiro as the singer
had a beautiful voice and
charming presence. It was un-
fortunate that he sang a well-

known folk song, a propos of
the show only in its title,
'Motherless Child." His whole
appearance on the scene was of
questionable function and was
consistent only with the show's
characteristic inconsistency.
This quality was sustained in the
choreography, which was un-
usually commercial and square
for such hipsters, besides being
repetitious. The best choreog-
raphy was demonstrated in the
dancing school fiasco.

All the lesser roles were done
to best advantage. The scene
changes, which consisted of
turning hanging pictures over
a flat at either side of the stage,
were carried out flawlessly and
inconspicuously. Although the
quality of the paintings, even
as only suggestive, was particu-
larly poor, the idea was clever.

Mitch BenofT*s music was a
tuneful medley of certain South
Pacific, West Side Story and
Hi-Charlie melodies combined
within other songs — very
"showy." you might say. Credit
was not. but should have been
given to hugh and his "unit" of
hip songsters, who were wholly
responsible for the Cocoa-Cola
song, the highest and coolest
point of the show. On the other
hand, the lyrics which arose
from the collaboration of Mes-
sieurs Mande. BenofT and Ja-
cobs were painfully trite and
uninspired.

Although all of the perform-
ers were at least sophomores
and the rest of the show's staff
included uppercla.ssmen. there
was little to distinguish "su-
zuki!" from a high school pro-
duction.

(Continued from Page 4)

ble. Similarly, I have no right
to criticize any Negro who ac-
cepts the white man's otTer to
integrate. It is he, not I, who
must live in a tenement, whose
children don't have enough
food and clothing. These things
are of prime importance to him.
What does it matter if you can
burn if your family is hungry?
I can only despair at the fact
that he is forced to make a
choice.

Separation or Chaiii:e

Of course there are those Ne-
groes who want everything.
They want to be able to live
comfortable, economic lives
and to maintain their cultural
identity. It is these Negroes
who are regarded as irresponsi-
ble radicals by the white com-
munity. These Negroes blame
the white world for the condi-
tions under which the Ameri-
can Negro is living, and refuse
to become part of a society
which they recognize as sick
both in the way it has treated
the Negro and in the way it
lives its own life. They seek to
better the lives of Negroes, but
they want to do it apart from,
not through, white society. This
attitude is bound, at first to
carry with it certain "racist"
overtones, for the simplest ex-
planation of the sickness of the
white world is that the white
world is that the white man is
inherently evil. This is basi-
cally what the Muslims are say-

ing. There is. however, another
trend among radical Negroes
which sees what is wrong with
the white man not as a product
of any inherent characteristics
of the white race, but as the re-
sult of the form of society in
which the white man is living.
This seems to be the conclusion
Malcolm X had reached before
his death, and it is a conclusion
which allows for the possibility
of improvement through
changing white society itself.

The prospect of change is
not a pleasant one for the
white man. He is bound to
resent any threat to the so-
cial order which has given
him security and protection,
at least in an economic sense.
He will accept the Negro's
bid for improvement only as
long as it remains within and
accepts the existing social or-
der, and will castise the Ne-
gro any time he threatens or
rejects that order. This is ex-
actly why the white commu-
nity is so horrified by Negro
riots.
The white man's lectures
about the evil of riots are
grounded not in morality, but
in self-interest. It is for the
Negro alone to decide whether
or not he will accept :!hange
within the existing society. The
rioters in Watts were obviously
rejecting the existing order.
Certainly, riots and other forms
of Negro violence are not an
adequate, or even a desirable

means to accomplish whatever
changes the Negro decides that
he wants, if for no other reason
than that white power is great-
er than black power. At the
present, however, the riots are
perhaps the only way to make
the white world understand
that the Negro cannot bear the
life which he is forced to lead,
that he blames the white man
for forcing that life upon him,
and that he rejects the solu-
tions to the problem which the
white man has offered. It is the
Negro's way of saying to the
white world, "Let us live a de-

You'll be suckcrcd into car-
rying a pretty co-ed's luggage
up four flights of stairs and then
forget to ask for her name.

If the weather is particularly
hot, at leasit one freshman will
ask you where the swimming
pool is located.

Dr. Sachar will inform the
new freshmen that the univer-
sity will undergo its greatest
period of change during their
four year stay.

You will meet Peter Siris.

The upperclassmen will rate
the freshman co-eds the best
crop of girls since they've been
here.

Attendance at the Orienta-
tion Week lectures will be
eighty per cent female. The
men will all be out in the fresh
air playing touch football.

One of your friends will have
grown a full beard or a mous-
tache during the summer.

Someone will miss the bus
back to school after the recep-
tion at the President's home.

There will be at least one
discussion around Hnmillon
Pond on the subject of parietal
hours.

You'll overhear a freshman

introducing himself to a cute
girl as a friend of her aunt's
next-door neighbor.

You'll meet Peter Siris again.

Some innocent freshman will
ask you what kind of a basket-
ball team Brandeis had last sea-
son. Worse yet, at least one
newcomer will inquire about
the football team.

The first time they serve

bad.

Several over-ambitious new-
comers, mistaking Brandeis for

You will be encouraged at
every meal to subscribe to the

Some transfer student will
tell you that some upperclass-

know where the real Student
Union building is located.

The lines at the Bookstore
will begin in front of Gryz-

Peter Siris will be in your

Headstart

(Continued from Page 3)

which I mentioned in the previ-
ous paragraph is due to the rich
culture the Italians have pre-
served in this country. The
Italian family is a stable and
important institution. As can
be expected, there were no
children of divorced families in
our group. Two children came
from homes that had been bro-
ken due to mental illness. Most
of the families had at least five
children, all very close in age.
Our one only-child was classi-
fied as spoiled and self-cen-
tered by all the other mothers.
They were entirely correct in
their opinions. This particular
girl always arrived at school
with her latest toy to sliow to
all the youngsters, and some-
times complained of feeling
sick or dizzy if she didn't like
the food or didn't want to play.
All the parents took a deep in-
terest in their children's par-
ticipation in Operation Head-
start. There was no problem
getting mothers to come to
weekly meetings to discuss
their children's problems and
progress.

It was on economic, not cul-
tural, factors that this neigh-
borhood was chosen for Opera-
tion Headstart. However, the
poverty in the North End can-
not be seen readily. Tlie resi-

dents dress very well, like mid-
dle class Americans. The chil-
dren always arrived at school
well-scrubbed and nicely
clothed. The people eat very
well too, one important factor in
the Italian culture. Most of the
children in our group had been
on trips with their parents to
the zoo, the seashore, and sev-
eral had even seen the Chil-
dren's Museum. It is only on
visiting the homes that one can
sense the poverty. Most of the
apartments are small and old.
They are all walk-ups. A family
of five might live in three
crowded rooms. But the apart-
ments are spotlessly clean and
carefully furnished. Responsi-
ble for this is the great pride
the people have in their homes.
Consequently, I was amazed to
hear that five families in our
group were on welfare.

I do think last summer was a
rewarding one for the children
with whom I worked. The value
was different than pe^rhaps it
was for the children of Harlem
or the Delta region in Missis-
sippi. Tlie children of the North
End entered the program with
many skills and high motiva-
tion. The growtli was not as a
group. But there were many
children who gained a great
deal of maturity in dealing with
others, and were prepared emo-
tionally for the experience of
going "to school. They began
with a cultural headstart and
gained an emotional one.

liberalism" encourages them to
forget about achievements at
home, and concentrate on fail-
ures abroad. As a result, their
creed is becoming one of dis-
sociation. We saw this when in
introducing Professor Marcuse
for a speech. Dr. Heinz Lubasz
corrected himself from a **my
government," by commenting

"it is not my government." Poet
Robert Lowell's refusal of a
White House invitation is an-
other example of this self-im-
posed alienation. Note again
that intellectuals like Soronson
and Schlesinger ol tiie Kennedy
Administration are being re-
placed by fawning yes-men like
Jack Valenti.

Feelings exist among intel-
lectuals that central govern-
ment is not resptm.'^ive to their
de."-:ires. These are engendered
primarily by Joluison's iorrign
policy debacle, and sec•on(^'n ily
by the dilemma fncmg liberals
in domestic atTairs.

B urea ucra lie growth means
an increase in conformity and
impersonal izal ion How can any
thinking person reject the
concept of the importance of
the individual? Yet liberal i)hi-
losophy has not commtnlod on
the increasing growth of tiie de-
personalized stale.

Among the college-age lib-
erals, the dissof iiition has gone
even furtln r. It rxl<'nds into a
"why bothrr?" attitude bor-
deiing on defeatism. Signs are
present that thi.v generation,
lih(^ that of thr Ku'^^sian intellec-

react to nonresponsive govern-

non - responsive povermnrnt,
and unless someone can provide

honors in basketball and base-
ball during three years at St.
Mary's in Waltham and a fourth
at Waltham High. He played
four seasons of varsity basket-
ball for Brandeis culminating
with the 195G 57 NCAA East-
ern playoffs. He was chosen
Most Valuable Player on the
team and was also baseball cap-
tain.

"Brandeis is indeed fortunate
to bring back one of its finest
basketball players. Hubie is
young (29), enthusiastic and a
real student of the game, He
proved his ability as a player
agamst the strongest competi-
tion in the East," former coach
Olin commented.

A playmaker and ballhawk
On the same order as K. C.
Jones, LeBlanc will make his
coaching debut with a young
Brandeis squad as the Judges
host Brown at Shapiro Athletic
Center Dec. 3.

Track Resumed

Levine will head a limited
track program as Brandeis re-
sumes intercollegiate competi-
tion. He is a Bates graduate
and a successful New Jersey
high school coach.

He brings an impressive rec-
ord of 65 dual meet straight

victories at New Jersey state
titlist Moorestown high school
with him. His teams captured
county, group and state honors
and in 1963 his distance medley
relay won a national schoolboy
championship at the Penn Re-
lays.

The cross-country team will
compete in five dual meets
against Tufts, Boston State, As-
sumption, Boston University,
and Barrington as well as the
Greater Bostons and New Eng-
land intercollegiates at Frank-
lin Park.

Reese, a three-time New
England AAU wrestling cham-
pion from Yale, is the new var-
sity wrestling coach. He for-
merly coached at Noble and
Greenough School and played
service football in the Marine
Corps.

Another LeBlanc

Leo LeBlanc of Waltham,
former UMass. hoopster has
been engaged to handle the
freshmen basketball team.
Ironically, he will be assisting
interim varsity Coach Hubie
LeBlanc. The two are not re-
lated.

Vogelsinger, a native of Aus-
tria, is a graduate of Boston
University and a professional
soccer player for the Boston
Metros. He will coach the
freshmen Brandeis soccer play-
ers, assisting Coach John

Soccer Squad Splits Pair
Ready to Hold it's Own

By RIC USLANER

Next year Brandeis might have a home-coming soccer weekend.

The major fall sport here promises iia exciting — and possibly a winning — sea-
son this year.

Coach John Hughes said that the team, which is now 1-1 on the young season, is
"the finest that I have seen at Brandeis in my six years here. There's more enthusiasm
and more hustle than ever before."

The Judges lost their opener
Thursday to Stonehill. The
score was 3-1 officially, but
should have been 2-2 accord-
ing to Hughes. He complained
about the "poor officiating"
there, charging that one Stone-
hill goal came after an appar-
ent penalty and that one Bran-
deis goal was eliminated by
sleight of hand by the oppo-
nent's goalie wliile the officials'
heads were turned.

The squad fared better Sat-
urday when it edged Hartford
1-0 at the Connecticut scliool's
field.

The toughest opponent the
Judges will face all year is
Boston University. That game
was to have been played Mon-
day at the Hub. Details on it
will be carried in next week's
Justice. Coach Hughes said,
"After that game, we can hold
our own against anybody." On
Friday, Colby will come here
for the fourth game of the year.

The only senior on the 1965
squad is Dave Fleischaker, the
captain. The services of Chris
McLaughlin, a two-year vet-
eran, have been lost for med-
ical reasons.

Asim Erdelik scored a 25-
foot goal in the Stonehill game.

ASIM ERDILEK preparing for opener against Stonehill.

Angelo Caranfa of the opposi-
tion tallied two goals on his
way to becoming one of the
area's top scorers. He has now
made seven goals in three
games. Don Klabin, a fresh-
man, was the goalie for the
Judges.

Pete Barnett '67 gave Bran-
deis the only goal it needed in
the Hartford game. Hughes
cited Fleischaker, C a d m a n
Mills and halfbacks Biola Sobo-
wale and Bruce Clarkin for

SiBchiBr Discusses
Enr^^iiwnewwt Increase

In a discussion with student leaders Sunday morning, President Sachar declared
that he considered it a "moral obligation" to increase the size of the student lx>dy dur-
ing the next five years. His point was made in what he called a "semi-otticial" meet-
ing with board members of the Student Council, representatives of the Student Board
of Review, the Justice, and other student organizations together with Deans Morrissey
and Zion.

President Sachar said that the undergraduate enrollment will increase by ap-
proximately 50 during each of the next five years. This rate of growth will permit
enrollment to reach 2000 by 1970, a goal set by the Board of Trustees. Asked to justify
this growth, the President said that the University has a duty to at least make a ges-
ture in the attempt to solve the problem of increasing enrollments that is affecting col-
leges all over the country. Not only are there more students applying to college than
ever before but the percentage.

Politics Alters

Comprehensive

Requirements

Beginning in 1966-67, the
Brandeis Politics Dept. is ex-
pected to eliminate the com-
prehensive examinations

required of det)artment con-
centrators according to Dr.
Peter Woll, student advisor.

Dr. Woll. noted tliat neither

ence credits nor future con-
centrators, according to Dr.

Requirements for concentra-
tion in the Politics Dept. will
tentatively be as follows, he
explained: Politics la. 11); a
year in the history of political
theory; and 27 additional
credits in politics c o u v s e s .
Seniors will be required to take
a comprehensive cour.se. The
senior cour.se. to be olTered for
the lirst time in 1966-67, will
integrate four areas of political
science: American government,
comparative govern in e n t ,
political theory and interna-
tional relations.

Dr Woll indicated that most
memlHis of the department
believe the senior comprehen-
sive course can meet the inte-
grative needs of politics con-
centrators better than an
examination could. To be
worthwhile, he noted, compre-
hensive examinations should
be a part of the general educa-
tion program of the entire

about such horVois; the acatltmic determent remarkably relieves the personal anxieties

the result of a poiiutal ileci-

when analyzing political deci-
sions, to ask wiu) beiHfits and
who is hurt. Iji this case, the
beneficiary is painfully obvi-
ous: students benefit because
t'hey do not have to risk their
lives, or waste their years, or
prostitute their dignity — which-
ever factor it is that makes
military life most unappealing.
Of course, an academic defer-
ment lasts only while one is
working toward a dej.;rec, but
how many members of the
Class of 1966 have considered
the draft as a significant ele-

for an advanced dtj-ree*^

Who is injured by the defer-
ment system? Or. from a more
useful point of view, who does
not go to college? We can
identify two categories: those
who cannot afford college,
namely the lower-middle cIJkI
lower classes, and those w'ho
are intellectually incapable of
going to college, namely the
uneducated, the undereducated,

occupation has social value
only in so far as it is to be used
for public benefit. Any other
value it might have is more
of a private nature, and does
not rate special public treat-

lit to have educated business
leaders, but because business
leaders work primarily lor
themselves, and not for the
public, it does not behoove the
public to provide special treat-

hand, it is not enough merely
to defer from the draft anyone
who is studying to be a doctor
or teacher (or whatever other
occupation is found to be in

ired from the armed serv-
? The logical answer, it

ccms to me, is that it is to the
benefit of society to have edu-
cated citizens; perhaps one
would argue further that it is

o the benefit of the military

o have educatei soldiers.

Unfortunately, no confirmed
advocatiis diaboli can let the
;: Kilter rest so easily. Brushing
aside the point that the military
needs educated soldiers (for if
an educated soldier is a good
soldier, then the education sys-
tem ought to be destroyed), we
still must contend with the no-
tion that a college graduate is
somehow going to be a better
citizen than his former hig'h
school classmat<\ who is to be
:\ butcher, clerk, or salesman.

The line of thinking here em-
ployed would go something like
is: (\\^ f-er^nin occupations are
more valuable to society than y^^j ^ student become a doctor,
others; (b) these more valuable x\\q public should have the use

One would suppose that in this dog-eat-doK society of ours, individuals would holt
at the chance to literally ^et somethiuK tor nothing. However, there were but two en-
tries submitted for Trivia: Pari One. C^nsideriuK our magnaminity and our morbid
fascination with absurd correspondence, we are awarding prizes to both contestants.
Michael Leiderman, '66, place<l first with 6 points. Runner-up was Norm Winer, 6!), v\ ifh
4 points. Since Leiderman tinisheu first, we are giving him a victory in the "masculine"

division. The prize is a Trini
Lopez album. Mr. Winer may
take his pick of category:
"feminine," "not-so-rnasculine."
or "pretty cute." In any event,
he will receive Peter Matthies-
sen's latest novel. At Play in

The Brandeis Mental Health
Association has revised its
work program in hospital
wards this year to include pro-
f e s s i o n a I consultants with
whom the volunteers will dis-
cuss and evaluate their work.

Under the student leadership
of Ronnie Kattner, '66, and
Michael Brooks, '68, the pro-
gram was revised because, ac-
cording to Brooks, in the past
there was "no one to define the
student's role." The consultants
have been hired to remedy the
situation.

Early in the program, the
students will tour the hospital
facilities to become familiar
with the overall structure
within which they will be
working. Day leaders, students
experienced in the field, will
head groups of eight to ten
volunteers. Every other week,
the consultants will meet with
the group after ward visits to
discuss and evaluate their
progress and any problems they
encountered.

The organizational meeting
of the mental health association
will be tonight at 7:30 in
Schwartz Hall. Scheduled to
speak at the meeting is Carter
Imharger, author of "College
Students in the Mental Hospi-
tal."

The 'New Left:' The Ideology of Detachment

By JOEL DOERFLER and *•
CARL SHEINGOLD

In the last jew years Ameri-
can soeialist students have he-
gun rejerring to their inove-
ment as "The New Left." It is
the intention of this article to
offer a critical analysis of this
movement. We do so from an
aivkwardly sympathetic pers-
pective. We share many of the
broad intentions and specific
joals of the "Neiv Left" — to
the extent, at least, that we
can decipher what they are —
and it is because of this that
we arc so deeply troubled by
the trends we see in the state-
ments and actions of this new-
est vanquard. The "New Left"
aspires to chunqc our politics
and affect our history, but we
perceive in the "Neu-> Left" an
n))pronch which is systemati-
cally apolitical and anti-lrislori-
cal. and therefore ineffective
and self-defeating.

As tlu' British Labor Parly
and the German Social Demo-
crats have long since recog-
nized, the capitalist system is
not about to collapse and bring
in its wake a revolutionary
working class. It is totally ir-
relevant, from a political point
of view, to argue that capital-
ism still survives only because
of the continued existence of
armaments and "imperialist"
'•police actions" abroad. Even
if this were true (and it is not)
i1 would not strike at the core
of the traditional Marxist argu-
ment. The major appeal of
Marxism in the past has been
its "scientific" assertion that
capitalism (by whatever
means) could not "deliver the
goods" i e. could not maintain
a tolerable living standard for
the mass of the population.
The self evident fact that cap-
italism (or a modified variant
thereon) can, is, and will con-
tinue to "deliver the goods,"
in Japan, in West Germany, in
France and in the United
States, is the most formidable
refutation of the classical
Marxist prognostication (at
least as far as the working-
classes of these countries are
concerned).

Given this state of affairs
many would argue that "So-
cialism" or "radicalism" is be-
coming increasingly irrelevant
in the more advanced indus-
trial nations. This point of view
appears fallacious to us for the
following reasons: (1) capital-
ism has siill not solved the
problem of the equitable dis-
tribution of gfH>ds and services;
(2) there still exis-ts in Amer-
ica and in Western Europe
lar^e segments of the popula-
tion living below or at par
ivith the minimal subsistence
level; (3) the forms which
Government intervention into
the "free" workings of the
economy is to take is still open
to much disagreement and dis-
pute; (4) the priorities which
one assigns to various — and
often conflicting — problems of
economic policy (e.g. "full-
employment" vs. optimum effi-
ciency or "full-employment"
vs. the elimination of the bal-
ance of payments deficit) is an
indication of how one feels
about a series of basic moral
and political assumptions.

In other words, there still
exist "radical" and "conserv-
ative" solutions to the prob-
lems which exist in capitalist
societies. Perhaps "capitalism"
and "socialism" have lost all
value to us as descriptive
terms. Yet notwithstanding
this, there still remains the
need for a Democratic Left in
the United States. Whatever be
the problems which the Unit<>d
States as a nation must face,
the Left must be in the van-
guard in its insistence on hu-
man liberty, both industrial
and political.

The American Left is faced
today with what Irving Howe
has called "a society that
seems intent upon a malicious-
ly benevolent assimilation."
The "con.sensus liberalism"
which exists in the United
States is like some giant mag-
n e t which never-endingly
draws to Wsi^f .ill di^sidiMil
elemcnls, all non-cunformists

of whatever variety, seekin
ultimately to dissolve them in
that giant potpourri of Ameri-
cana— the Moderate Middle.
It is a monumental task simply
to maintain a posture of friend-
ly criticism or "loyal Opposi-
tion" in such a society.

The "New Left" Movement,
as it is understood by its par-
ticipants, is not simply a resur-
rected or rationalized version
of an older variety of Amer-
ican radicalism. It is, for many
young people, a brand new be-

ginning, an approach to pol-
itics freed from the "errors" of
past generations of Socialists.
It is our view that in the proc-
ess of trying to find for itself
a new raison d'etre the Amer-
ican student Left, or at least a
sizeable proportion of it, has
tended to disregard the past
history of Socialist movements
and has, in fact, learnt very
little from the experiences of
its radical predecessors.

What immediately distin-
guishes a movement like S.D.S.
is its conscious rejection of
Ideology. According to many
young radicals, the belief in
Ideologies — Socialist, Commu-
nist, Trotskyite etc. — among
Leftists in the nineteen-thirties
was an important factor in
their inability to influence the
tide of world events. What ex-
actly is meant by this? It is
obvious, even to most alumni
of the Young People's Social-
ist League or the Young Com-
munist League, that the in-
terminable debates of the thir-
ties over what Marx really
meant when he spoke of the
"dictatorship of the proletari-
at," or the endless schisms be-
tween "right deviationists" and
"left wing ultra revolution-
aries," were absurd and did not
serve to bring about the de-
mise of the capitalist system.
However, was this senseless
tendency toward atomization of
the Left the necessary result
of belief in an ideology?

By "ideology" we mean "a
systematic scheme of ideas
about life." The operative word
here is "systematic." An ideol-
ogy is built upon a series of as-
sumptions about the world, as-
sumptions which may be de-
rived either empirically or 9
priori. The ideologist is able to
formulate a set of conclusions
— both of a general or a par-
ticular nature — all of which
proceed logically from the ini-
tial premises. For the partici-
pant in a social movement the
ideology provides a logical ba-
sis for social or political ac-
tions and enables him to have
a basis for choosing between
a set of alternative actions.

The diffjculty arises when
an ideology seeks to explain
too much, when it becomes a
"weltenschaung" which offers
to provide an interpretation of
every facet of human existence.
When this is the case then
ideology will contain the seeds
of totalitarianism. Yet simply
becau.se ideology has in the past
be(^n used to justify a series of
unheard of atrocities does not
mean that any and all attempts
to think systematically about
the nature of politics leads in-
evitably to the purge trial or
the extermination camp. Often,
just the opposite may be true.
The failure to think through

gideas and to draw logical con-
clusions may leave one easy
prey for the zealous Ideologue.

By dismissing the impor-
tance of ideological thought,
or by exaggerating its dangers,
the "New Left" has overlooked
or has refused to come to grips
with, many real issues of the
nineteen-thirties which remain
significant today. What, after
all, were the real differences
which made Social-Democrats
and Communists irreconcilable
enemies? Were they merely
fine points of Marxist dogma?
Certainly not. These differ-
ences involved two opposing
assumptions about the nature
of society, of human freedoms
and of human rights. As Irving
Howe has written in the last
edition of Dissent: "The nature
of Stalinism and post-Stalinist
Communism is not an abstract
or esoteric matter; the views
one holds concerning these
questions determine a large
part of one's political conduct;
and wiiat is still more impor-
tant; they reflect one's funda-
mental moral values . . . The
issue of totalitarianism is nei-
ther academic nor merely his-
torical; no one can seriously
engage in politics without
clearly and publicly defining
his attitude to it."

It is of more than passing in-
terest that SDS, after first call-
ing itself a "non-Communist or-
ganization," dropped the desig-
nation a few months ago "be-
cause nobody could see its rele-
vance." (New Republic, June
19, 1965) In a similar vein, a
spokesman for SNCC when
asked on a recent Open End
program to discuss his views
about Communism calmly re-
plied: "I have no idea what a
Communist is"! This sort of re-
sponse is explainable in part as
a reaction against McCarthyism
and the red-baiting of the
nineteen-fifties. It is, however,
an over-reaction which is
logically absurd. Because dur-
ing the nineteen-fifties the civil
liberties of Communists and
non-Communists were indis-
criminately ignored does not
mean that Communism is any
less an evil or that all "right
thinking" citizens should ig-
nore its presence and refuse to
recognize its essential nature.

How, for example, can S.D.S.
hope to take reasonable posi-
tions on questions of foreign
policy without first defining
what its views are concerning
the intentions of China and the
Soviet Union? Domestically, to
ignore the issue of Communism
is to directly endanger one's
own movement. This is not
simply a paranoid reaction.
Side by side with the "New
Leftists" loosely organized in
S.D.S. there are numerous "Old
Left" organizations each of
which subscribes to one or an-
other brand of Communism.
Groups like Progressive La-
bor, W.E.B. DuBois Clubs or
the May 2nd Committee may,
indeed, possess small member-
ships. But unlike S.D.S. they
are precise in their thinking
and they reject entirely the
"non-ideological" posture. Un-
less S.D.S. is able to publicly
define its views towards these
groups, which means, in ef-
fect defining its views about
revolution, the nature of West-
em democracy and nature of
totalitarianism, then it runs
the risk of being swallowed up
and of losing its independence
and its freedom of action.

Clearly, the foregoing discus-
sion is merely a restatement of
the older, but nonetheless sig-
nificant issue of the nineteen-
thirties — the United Front.
S.D.S. seems to have learnt
nothing from the past experi-
ences of the democratic Left
on this subject. The United
Front is neither morally nor
tactically desirable. It is im-
moral because it involves co-
operation with, and the aiding
of, organizations with which
one has irreconcilable differ-
ences (primarily, irreconcilable
ethical differences). It is poor
tactics because it can only
serve to discredit a democratic
organization in the eyes of the

public by its association with
blatantly anti - democratic
groups.

The major attempt at formu-
lating a cohesive program of
the "New Left" is the Port
Huron Statement of SDS, is-
sued in the summer of 1962.
The statement reads in part:
"America rests in national
stalemate ... its democratic
system apathetic and manip-
ulated rather than *of, by and
for the people' . . . We seek the
establishment of a democracy
of Individual participation . . .
The economic sphere (should)
have as its basis the principle
that work should involve in-
centives worthier than money
or survival . . . The United
States' principal goal should
be creating a world where hun-
ger, poverty, ignorance, dis-
ease, violence, and exploitation
are replaced as central features
by abundance, reason, love
and international cooperation."

Certainly there is nothing
objectionable in this statement
of ultimate aims. However,
what is required is something
iar more than a visionary por-
trait of some future Utopia.
One is eager to ask questions
like: "How is this to be
achieved? Is Socialism the
answer? By Socialism do we
mean nationalization of basic
industries? Do we mean work-
ers' control of industry? Do we
want some version of a Rous-
seauean 'direct democracy'?
Is this possible? etc." As far as
we know SDS has made, to
date, no serious effort to come
to grips with these problems.
It has put forward no signifi-
cant "radical" proposals for
improving upon, or doing
away with, American "capital-
ist" economics. It has attempt-
ed to get along without an
Immediate Program of Action
by resorting to the use of a few
catch-all phrases, ("the Estab-
lishment," "the power struc-
ture," "the military-industrial
complex") all of which have
by now become so overworked
as to become meaningless.

Within SDS and, to a lesser
extent, within SNCC there is
an explicit belief in the neces-
sity for a "social revolution" in
the United States. What fol-
lows from this apocalyptic vi-
sion is an implicit contempt
for piecemeal relorms, a tacit
rejection of the old Fabian con-
fidence in "the inevitability of
gradualness." The outpouring
of progressive legislation gen-
erated by the Johnson admin-
istration is greeted by the
"New Left" either with cynical
indifference or with sullen
contempt.

The "New Left" is thus con-
fronted with a dilemma of its
own making. Believing as it
does in "social revolution" yet
having very little to say by
way of concrete suggestions
for bringing this "revolution"
about, SDS and SNCC have

tended to adopt a posture of
"moral," rather than of polit-
ical, defiance of the so-called
"Establishment." "A true rad-
ical must not dirty his hands'*
— this is the watchword, the
ultimate rationale of the "New
Leftist." Any association with
the "power structure" is viewed
as a sign of moral decadence.
The "New Leftist" must con-
fine himself to working only
with those "savage innocents"
who remain "uncorrupted" by
American middle-class life
and values.

It is necessary for the sake
of those uninitiated in the mys-
teries and vagaries of Leftist
syntax to explain what is
meant by the term the "power
structure" when used by
groups like SDS. As far as we
can understand it, the "power
structure" embraces everyone
in the United States with the
exception of: (1) unemployed
and very poor whites and (2)
Negroes who have not yet lost
their ability to "burn" i.e. poor
and unemployed Negroes. Wal-
ter Reuther and the UAW. the
A.D.A., Martin Luther King,
the institution of Academia
and the N.A.A.C.P. are all
hopelessly tainted by their
association with the embodi-
ment of the "power structure"
himself — Lyndon Johnson. In
fact, among many on the "New
Left" there is agreement with
LeRoi Jones that the above-
mentioned groups are the real
enemies and are far more
dangerous than Barry Gold-
water or George Wallace who
are, according to Jones, simply,
"stupid." (For those who enjoy
historical analogies it is of
some interest to recall that as
late as 1933 German Commu-
nists were denouncing German
Socialists and trade unionists
as the real enemy. After all,
Hitler and National Socialism
were awfully "stupid.")

Having rejected the propos-
als of Socialists like Michael
Harrington and Bayard Ru.'^tin
for a broad Liberal-Left coali-
tion which would embrace the
more progressive trade unions
and civil rights organizations,
the "New Left" has concen-
trated its work among poor
whites and Negroes. There can
be no criticism of the inten-
tions of those dedicated SDS
workers who have gone out to
live in slum neighborhoods in
the North in an attempt to
build an "interracial movement
of the poor" primarily by or-
ganizing around the unemploy-
ment issue. However, one can-
not help feeling that these
idealistic young people are in-
dulging in a subtle form of
self-deception. They are, first
of all, deluding themselves by
thinking that what they are
doing is "new" and bears no re-
lationship with the histories of
past radical movements. In
point of fact, of course, the

This opening concert of the student series was a promising one, the best I have

hisloi.v books are cluttered
with similar efTorts to orj^an-
ize the *iuinpenprulelariat" or
the utterly dispossessed (about
the success of which, inciden-
tally. Marx himself was very
skeptical).

Simply because in the past
movements to organize those
on the very lowest rungs of
ecoiiumic order have failed, is
no reason for S.D.S. to aban-
don its work in this direction.
It is reason, however, for them
to take pause and to develop a
laile humility about the enor-
mity of their task and the dif-
ficulties involved It is also
rea.son for them to examine
their motives. Do they really
believe in the possibility of
succe.ss? Or is this another
gesture of moral rectitude? It
is admittedly, fur more mun-
dane to work to bring about a
Ciovornment fiscal policy which
will enable the United States
to reach a full employment lev-
el of (iNP than to go out and
live 'amonff the people." But
is this not a more effective
pieans of helping the poor?
And if it is not (because of the
problem.s posed by technolog-
ical unemployment and the ex-

istence of perennially "dis-
tressed" areas) how is the
SDS plan any better? Once
again we are reduced to de-
manding that SDS clarify and
systematize its thinking.

In the process of attempting
to remain uncorrupted by the
"power structure" the "New
Left" has turned to the Negro
as the la.st bastion of moral "in-
nocence" in American society.
In a vague and undefined sort
of way, the Marxist historical
prediction still exercises some
influence in the thinking of the
"New Left." Confronted by the
fact that the white proletariat
is obviously not the revolution-
ary wave of the future, many
members of SDS and SNCC
have erected a myth of the
American Negro as the truly
authentic working class which
will bring about the .social
revolution which is "so devout-
ly to be wished." The Negro
becomes, in this view, the
"natural" man, the "noble
savage." His values are far
superior to those of the white
world by virtue of his unre-
pressed, "animal" nature — he
is more moral, more virile,
more authentic. By a truly
amazing logical sleight-of-hand
the ability to dance, to play
ba.seball, and to compose jazz
have been formulated as a "co-
herent" ethical system of
values!

ceptional about all this. The
new "cult of the Negro" as ex-
pressed, particularly, in lit-
erature and in the theater is a
pale reflection of the "prole-
lariat worship" of the 1930's.
The archtypal artistic portray-
al of the worker in the thirties
— in dungarees, blue-work
shirt and sporting a pair of
gargantuan biceps and a men-
acing sledge hammer — is no
longer with us. But he has
been replaced by his Negro
counterpart — the hippie.

What follows from this
mythical portrait of the Negro
is the desire on the part of
many "New Leftists" to "pro-
tect" him from becoming in-
tegrated into a morally dec-
adent white society. Bayard
Rustin has said that Negroes
desire "to enjoy the fruits of
American society as it now ex-
ists." The "New Leftist" takes
i.ssue with this assertion not on
the basis of any empirical evi-
dence concerning what are, in
fact, the desires of the Negro
community but rather, on the
basis of his a priori assump-
tions about the essential na-
ture of Negritude. The Negro,
as he has been previously
characterized and neatly la-
belled by the "New Left," does
not and ought not to desire "to
enjoy the fruits of American
society as it now exists."

Thus far we have concen-
trated on the area of domestic
politics, for until recently this
was the main area of concern
for the "New Left." However,
the intervention of American
power in the Dominican Re-
public and Vietnam has shifted
the focus of attention to the
area of foreign policy.

Much of the activity on this
front has taken the form of pro-
test meetings. We would ex-
pect that the minimal aim of
such meetings would be to con-
vince those who are not al-
ready convinced and thereby,
to afTect policy. The aim of
"New Left" protests, however,
would seem to be to reassure
the initiated of the righteous-
ness of their stand and of their
disdain for the "uninitiated."
This di.sdain, ironically, reach-

es its highest peaks when it is
directed at the "uninitiated"
who happen to possess power.
Yet how can you expect to
change a foreign policy when
the major, and oft stated prem-
ise of your protest is the ig-
norance and contemptibility of
policy-makers? This is the
shortest route to making a pro-
test totally dismissable. Fur-
thermore, even if some lost
soul is willing to ignore the im-
mature premises, he hears very
little that is useful. Protest
meetings have been so all-en-
compassing — tying the whole
society into one neat little pack-
age and then damning it all —
so far from ofTering reasonable
alternatives — that in saying
everything they end up saying
nothing at all. The only thing
one doesn't hear is an attempt
to deal with a specific issue in
its complexity; something
which our "stupid" policy-
makers somehow manage to do,
for better or worse.

The "New Left" frequently
refers to the Civil Rights move-
ment as its source and inspira-
tion. Yet it has ignored the
major tactical lesson provided
by the history of that move-
ment. The success of the Civil
Rights movement can in large
measure be traced to its lead-
ers' concern for finding elTec-
tive tactics. They have not
blurred the concrete ways in
which they wanted to change
the society by turning their
movement into a general pro-
test against everything pro-
testable. It is indicative that
the civil rights leaders who
have come closest to holding
real power are the ones held
in lowest repute by the "New
Left."

The dubious morality of the
"New Left" is illustrated by
looking at the use of a tactic
borrowed from the civil rights
movement. Civil Disobedience.
Civil Disobedience is a serious
matter, for it contains the seeds
of anarchy. The circumstances
under which its use is justified
are too complicated to go into
here, but at the very least one
can say that it ought to be a
means to an appropriate end.

It was precisely this when used
by Ghandi in India. It is pre-
cisely this when used by stu-
dents sitting-in in the South.
Recently, however, it has been
used in such a glib way as to
indicate that it has become an
end in itself. An example o£
this are the attempts tliis sum-
mer to stop the troop trains
headed for Vietnam. What
was the goal of that action?
They hardly expected to stop
the trains from going through.
They hardly expected to con-
vince people who did not al-
ready know of the evil of our
Vietnam policy. The aim, we
must conclude, was to have
committed the act itself. Civil
Disobedience, an issue loaded
with real moral questions, has
become a rather casual means
of voicing dismay and short-
cutting cumbersome politics.

Another example of dubious
morality is the issue of pacif-
ism. We frequently hear that

Detachment

it is morally wrong for Amer-
ica to u.se its power to kill peo-
ple in Southeast Asia by .such
horrible means as gassing and
bombing. The objection, iiow-
cver, is not to killing, but to
killing the wrong people; not
to supporting murderers, but
to supporting the wrong mur-
derer.s. After all. we iiear lit-
tle moral indignation over
Vietcong terror. We sense, in
fact, a distinct pleasure at the
prosi)cct of a H a n o i - t y p e
regime coming to power in
Saigon, a re^ijme which was
preoccupied in the first few
years after coming to power
with the problem of liquidat-
ing reactionary peasants. It is
valid to have a moral approach
to politics the premise of which
is that it is wrong to kill any-
body for any reason. It is also
valid to have a pragmatic ap-
proach to international politics,
accepting the necessity of pow-
er and being concerned with
the very practical questions of
its use. The "New Left" tries to
take the easy and pointless mid-
dle ground of taking credit for
a moral stance while avoiding
mordl premises, and then avoid-
ing the very complex questions
concerning the use of power y>y
calling its use by some morally
right, and by others morally
wrong.

This brings us back to the
question of detachment from
ideology. The "New Left" is
detached, not in the positive
sense of trying to maintain a
distant and critical perspective,
but in the negative sense of
placing ultimate value upon
withdrawal, rejection and the
avoidance of contaminaticm
with reality as given. They are
ai^palled. we fear, not so much
with re^ality. as with the com-
plexity and difTiculty of deal-
ing with, and changing, that
reality.

It is parallel to the Far Right
in its facility for reducing the
complexity of the world's prob-
lems to («o<»d and Evil. I'his
summer in Rerkeley, the ro-
mantic capital of the "New
Left," leaflets were handed out
to recruit pickets to a speech
by Maxwell Taylor. On the
page was a picture of Taylor
with the caption: "Wanted for
Murderl" It went on to call him
a Fascist and compare him to
Hitler. It was distressingly rem-
iniscent, both in content and
ni.scent, both in content and
mental process, of the handbills
that were prominently dis-
played in Dallas on Nov. 22^
1963. Surely, we can expect
something better than this
from the "New Left."

Detachment should be a per-
spective from which one can
accept complexity and still act,
from which one can admit that
one doesn't have all the an-
swers, that one might be
wrong, and yet still assert what
one believes to be right. De-
tachment should be a perspec-
tive which emphasizes system-
atic rather than emotional con-
sideration of both the moral
and pragmatic problems of po-
litical action; which makes use
of, without l>eing blinded by,
History. It ought to inspire a
direct confrontation. rather
than a flight from, reality; a
confrontation which, hopeful-
ly, will bear the fruit of, if
not a "Great Society," at least
a progressively better 9ac.

modern orchestra, and as the a-

Lerman has "written" here,
whether one wishes to label it
"music" in the conventional
sense, or anything else, is a real
poetry in sound. His piece has
an extremely clearly defined

is as subtle and expressive as

Too many goalies and not enough goals spelled trouble for the soccer team at
Gordon Field Friday.

Brandeis came in last in a cross-country meet held at
Gordon Field Saturday. Boston State College took first with
24 {)oints and Bentley College finished second with 48. The
Judges had 60 points.

Six of the first 10 finishers for Boston State scored in

the meet, which was held on a 3.5 mile course.

r.etwoen October 1 and Nc»vember i Gordon Athletic

Intramural Flag- Football teams. This year 17 teams en-

crews were Judy Smith '66 and

The races alternated in Divi-

turned in a good third race,
finishing fifth. Rouslyn and
Miss Smith were disqualified in
the fifth by wind shifts, but
came back to place fourth in

The B divisioners withdrew
from the second race because
of boat troubles. They were
disqualified in both the fourth

Since the fall of last year,
the Newton Soccer Club has
used Gordon Athletic Field for
frequent games on Sunday af-

team obtained permission for
the use of the field from the
Director of Special Events, the
Department of Buildings and

partment with the stipulation
that all Brandeis students be
admitted to the games free of

Irv Olin, Director of Physi-

the Soccer Club was granted
the use of the athletic fields
with the hope of creating an
interest in sports among Bran-
deis students by exposing them
to semi-professional competi-

that any student-sponsored
activity would hold precedence
over outside teams for use of

last year, it resolved that stu-
dents who failed to pay would
be admitted to certain of Coun-
cil sponsored activities only
upon payment of a stipulated
admission charge. Other events,
such as the weekly movie,
would be closed to those who
had not paid the SAF.

SBR Con.suIted

Force was not used to eject
the student during the alleged
incident because, according to
Council Treasurer Brian Mar-
cus, '67, "there was no point in
starting a fight and there is a
judicial body. Student Board
of Review, to take care of such
situations." Marcus stated fur-
ther, "The issue is not clo.sed.
This situation will not be al-
lowed to happen again." The
case was referred to SBR.

The Student Activities Fee
has been collected from approx-
imately 90% of the 1732 un-
dergraduates at Brandeis. As
of this week, 1510 students
have paid SAF in full or in in-
stallments. Brian Marcus said,
"We expect to collect the SAF
from 92% of the undergradu-
ates this year."

Graduate Fee

Marcus had hoped that 100
graduate students would pay a
$10 fee this year. He felt this
goal adequate because "this is
the first time SAF has been
asked of graduate students."
As of this week 90 graduate
students have paid.

Last year, the first year
Council collected the fee, 90%
of the 1650 undergraduates
paid. Marcus said that he felt
the 92% goal set for this year
was actually "a greater in-
crease over last year than it
appears because this year more
students are living off-campus
and feel no need to pay the
fee."

Desai Talks on Kashmir War

By BOB BERENSON and CAROLE HORN

(Following are excerpts from the first of a scries of recorded interviews. Mr. M. J. Dcsai is
the former Foreign Minister of the Republic of India and this year a Ziskind Visiting Professor
at Brandeis. We would appreciate your comments on this format.)

QUESTION: Can you describe the major points of contention in the Kashmir is-
sue, the center of the India-Pakistan conflict?

ANSWER: "Kashmir is only one of the side issues of the main problem . . . The
question is one nation or two. . . . After the great revolt of 1857, a process of modern-
ization began in India. It was confined to a very narrow level of intellectuals, but it was
the beginning of a national consciousne.ss. After the philosopher David Hume started

the Indian National Congress,
a liberal revolutionary move-
ment, the British instituted a
system of elections for the first
time. But for some reason the
system was Moslems vote for
Moslems and non-Moslems for
non-Moslims . . . and later,
when India was given self-
government, the system contin-
ued.

In 1947, during di.scussions
concerning transfer of ix>wer,
the Moslem League demanded
parity — 50-50 representation —
with non-Moslims. At that time
the ration of Moslems to non-
Moslem.s was about one to four.
A minority wanted equal rep-
resentation, but that couldn't
be, so the next best solution —
which was argued, discussed
and very reluctantly accepted
by the National Congress — was
partition.

The predominantly Moslem
areas became East and West
Pakistan. Since 1947, two
trends have grown in Pakistan.
One is a chauvinistic, racial-
istic feeling — "we should grow
bigger, and India should get
smaller." The way in which
Pakistan is divided geo-t>olit-
ically caused the second — the
difficulty of geography — and
the absence of political cohe-
sion between West and East
Pakistan created a contradic-
tion within the state i|self. Ex-
cept for religion. East and
West Pakistan have little in
common — economically, ra-
cially, linguistically and cul-
turally they differ.

The only way in which a
state created on this basis can

be unified is to unite against
an outside danger. So the anti-
India feeling exists — this is the
basis of most of the trouble.

In the last 18 months partic-
ularly, you have seen the in-
filtration into Kashmir by Pak-
istan. This approach is the
same as the 1947 approach —
it is a second invasion. The
only thing friends of India
and Pakistan can do is let
things be as they are until the
countries are modernized.
There is no other way so far
as the Kashmir question is con-
cerned.

QUESTION: India has stated
that Kashmir is much like In-

dia today, an inherent part of
the country — in this case why
is India so reluctant to hold a
plebiscite which would let the
Kashmiris choose for them-
selves?

ANSWER: Because the plebi-
scite is political — you can't
have plebiscites on a religious
issue. Also, when wo look at
the 1948 .settlement, the ruling
stated that the Pakistan inva-
sion should be undone and the
status quo restored. But the
position today is that the status
quo has not been restored. If
the .societies were modernized,
perhaps the plebiscite could be

Cuest Editorial

Please Drub Louise

In the Justice two weeks ago, an article appeared en-
titled lk>ston Won't Nix Louise Day Hicks. There is, how-
ever, a Krouj) of Brandeis students who will not accept this
verdict without a fight. The group is called the Brandeis
Students For Better Boston Schools, and is supported by
the Campus ADA. For the past four weeks, approximately
50 students have gone in to work for the five liberal candi-
4lates who are dedicated to improving the Bosto schools.
There are only two weeks left in the campaign. Any stu-
4lent interested in working should leave a note in the
CADA mailbox or contact Jon Brant (891-4095).

An example of the chronic problem of the Boston
schools is the fact that only 40 per cent of the teachers of-
fered jobs in the Boston schools accept the positions, and
there are 520 classrooms in which teachers are **temix)-
rary." Many teachers receive less piiy than the school cus-
todians. Furthermore, the School Committee has $29 mil-
lion dollars to replace the decrepit schools in the city, but
so far it has failed to spend a cent on new buildings and It
has been proposed that double sessions, which decrease
teaching time by half an hour a day, be imposed for 1600
stuilents.

The Committee has steadily refused to admit the
existence of the overcrowding in the schools to the point
ol opposing ''Operation Exodus" in which Negro parents
paid for the transi>ortation of their children from over-
crowded Roxl)Ui*y schools to empty classes in nearby areas-

Mrs. Hicks and her colleagues on the School Com-
mittee have been successful in playing on the fears of
people in areas adjoining Negro communities with the
emotional issue that their children will be transi>orted into
predominantly Negro schools. Her overwhelming success
in the primary may be attributed to this one tactic. That
such an empty issue could be used so well demonstrates
the need for more volunteers. The Justice strongly sup-
ports the Brandeis students who have campaigned for the
ticket of Gartland, King, Parker, Gacquin, and DeCaesar.
We hope that more members of the Brandeis community
will be willing to contribute their time to this very worth-
while cause. Irene Harris, '68

Foer Totalitarianism?

Foer Tolalilarianism

I think few of us would dis-
agree that there is much in the
selective service system which
smacks of irrationality if not
downright madness. Neverthe-
less. Bert Foer's uncritical ac-
ceptance of involuntary re-
cruitment (the draft) in last
week's article as a tolerable or
even necessary evil strikes us
as difficult to justify.

Foer has long been a staunch
critic of the method of social
organization employed by the
Communist nations. His basic
objection has been that the co-
ercive mobilization of a pop-
ulation for any ends deprives
the citizen of his individual
liberty. In this critique Foer
stands in the best traditions of
liberalism and must be re-
spected for his opposition to the
arbitrary and unchallengeable
government manipulation of
people's lives. In his article,
however, he seems to reject his
moral objections to coercion
in the name of "equality."
Foer's conception of equality
here appears identical in na-
ture with the "equality" of
which the Communist nations
are so proud, namely the equal-
ity of sacrifice.

So Foer leaves us without a
moral justification for the draft

system; yet he asserts that the
draft is "odious, but realistic,
at least for the next decade or
so." Involved in this a.ssertion
is the further assumption that
the foreign policy goals of the
administration do indeed mor-
ally and realistically justify
the systematic sacrifice of thou-
sands of lives, both of Amer-
icans and of citizens of coun-
tries which we occupy. It is a
mystery to us why Mr. Foer
does not focus his critique of
totalitarian control equally on
the actions of all governments,
including our own.

Might I draw your readers'

with the "larger issues," it is
in my view symptomatic of
matters that truly concern us
all.

Webb to Address Opening

Of Gerstenzang Quadrangle

James Webb, administrator of NASA, will speak at a convocation marking the
opening of the Gerztenzang Science Quadrangle, November 7 at 1:00 p.m.

Mr. Webb, administrator of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration
since 1961, served during the Truman Administration as director of the budget and
as Undersecretary of State. He has served on many federal advisory committees and has
been on the board of several scientific organizations.

As NASA administrator, Mr. Webb has been the director of the United States
peace-time space effort, resix)nsible for research and development of Project Mercury,
Project Gemini, and the project to land Americans on the moon before the end of this
decade.

WBRS will probably follow its

Greenbcrg cited several
reasons for the desire to switch
to FM. "We are at the limits of
our setup," he said, "and we're
ready for a bigger challenge."
He added that the present sys-

and program content, is n o w

THE J USTICE

October 19, 1965

Machlup

(Continued from Page 4)
of those who are not in the
labor force.

Because of the tri-partite na-
ture of the poverty problem,
certain measures which may
help one group are not practi-
cal because they might neglect
or even aggravate the needs of
the others. Higher unemploy-
ment benefits, for example,
would help group (2), but
would totally ignore those in
group (3), who, incidentally,
make up 40% of the American
poor. It is thus doubly neces-
sary to pick and choose reme-
dies to the problem of poverty,
since the only truly effective
measures would be those which
would help all three groups (or
at least a sizable majority of
the total poor). Dr. Machlup
then offered a sixpoint program
of possible anti-poverty meas-
ures: (1) direct assistance, with
special regard to government
supplements to zero or low in-
come families ("negative in-
come tax"); (2) indirect assist-
ance in the form of price sup-
ports, subsidies to industries
and elimination of competition
in some areas; (3) abolition of
discrimination in hiring; (4)
abolition of restrictive laws and
practices, such as minimum
wage (which, according to Pro-
fessor Machlup, only succeeds
in creating more unemploy-
ment among low-grade labor);
(5) raising the productivity of
the present low-grade labor

force through more efficient
tools and more intensive train-
ing programs for the unskilled;
and (6) raising the productiv-
ity of the future labor force
through better health and en-
vironment for the children of
poverty; preschool programs
for three-four year olds, etc.)

Of the above. Dr. Machlup
dismissed 2) indirect assistance
as impractical and too prone
to "rackets." He cited statistics
regarding the disbursement of
farm subsidies in America,
whereby 80% of the money
goes to the one million farmers
who earn $10,000 or more per
annum — the remaining 20%
goes to the 2Vz million farmers
who are actually poor. D r .
Machlup's own proposals, com-
bining points 1), 3), 4) and 6)
are as follows:

A. Direct assistance via a
negative income tax to supple-
ment low or zero level in-
comes.

B. Abolition of hiring dis-
crimination and of minimum
wage.

C. Various programs to train
the present low-grade labor
force and increase the produc-
tivity of the future labor
force.

Certain personal ideas which
Dr. Machlup gave voice to ("I
don't believe in organizing the
poor as a 'power group*"; "I
think it is a bad thing to try
to keep drop-outs in school . . .
they usually recognize that
they can get nothing more out
of school . . " etc.) struck
somewhat harshly on this lis-
tener's ears, but it must be

It follows that a self can exist
only in time, for a precondition
for meeting^ is the existence of
time. Exi^ential thinking be-
gins with the participants.
They will be ready to respond
before the confrontation, but
they will not know how to re-
spond until they are faced with
the otherness.

During his lecture. Dr. Fried-
man gave another reason for
Buber's distrust of theoretical
thought. Preoccupation with
theory leads to a dualism, com-
mon to modern man, which Bu-
ber felt to be bad. Believing
that some action is right is not
the same as asserting an action
to be right by acting spon-
taneously. Only when acting
spontaneously, when engaging
in a I-Thou relation, does one
act according to the true norm.
Theoretical reasoning tends to
lead to actions on the basis of
maxims, or false norms, actions
which lack spontaneity.

Corresponding to the dis-
tinction between acting on the
basis of belief and acting ac-
cording to the true norm is the
distinction between knowing
propositions to be true and
knowing taking place in rela-

former. We know God in so far
as we can enter into a relation
with him through prayer; we
can know nothing of God.

Dr. Frfedman concluded his
talk by noting that every man
has unique potential. Whether
this potential is realized is de-
pendent on whether the rela-
tions into which man enters
are "whole." The aim of each
man should be to act in the
role set for him. And this is
accomplished by constantly re-
acting spontaneously. In this
way does one become a man.

The trouble with much of
what Dr. Friedman said is that
it was so vague. What did Mar-
tin Buber mean when he used
the term "authentic," and "re-
ally real"? Why is something
more really real than some-
thing which is just real? And
does the aim of the existential-
ist, as characterized by Dr.
Friedman, really differ from
that of the ethical philosopher?
Granted the ethical philoso-
pher is concerned with theory,
it is doubtful that this makes
what he is doing any less rele-
vant than what the existential-
ist is doing. It may be that
traditional philosophers have
not been so concerned with the
application of theory as with
theory itself. But ethical the-
ory could be applied. Of course,
one might reply by saying that
ethical theory will only lead to
false norms. But why this is
so is not clear.

A key dimension of any job is the responsibility
involved. Graduates who join Ford Motor Coni->
pany find the opportunity to accept responsibility
early in their careers. The earlier the better. How-
ever, we know the transition from the academic
world to the business world requires training.
Scholastic achievements must be complemented by
a solid understanding of the practical, day-to-day
aspects of the business. That is the most direct
route to accomplishment.

Stephen Jaeger, of the Ford Division's Milwaukee
District Sales Office, is a good example of how it
works. His first assignment, in January, 1963;
was in the Administrative Department where he had the opportunity to
become familiar with procedures and communications between dealerships
and the District Office. In four months he moved ahead to the Sales Plan-
ning and Analysis Department as an analyst. He studied dealerships in
terms of sales history, market penetration and potentials, and model mix.
This information was then incorporated into master plans for the District.
In March, 1964, he was promoted to Zone Manager— working directly with
19 dealers as a consultant on all phases of their complex operations. This
Involves such areas as sales, finance, advertising, customer relations and
business msmagement. Responsible job? You bet it is— especially for a man
not yet 25 years old. Over one million dollars in retail sales, annually, are
Involved in just one dealership Steve contacts.

As a growth company in a growth industry, Ford Motor Company offers
an exceptionally wide spectrum of job opportunities. The chances are good
that openings exist in your field of interest. See our representative when
he visits your campus. We are looking for men who want responsibility— i
and will be ready for it when it comes.

adopted. If you introduce any
matter where religion will de-
cide which way an area will
go, however, you are shaking
up the stability of the country.

QUESTION: Why hasn't
Kashmir been affected by the
modernization of India?

ANSWER: A certain amount
of progress has been made — but
when you have a neighbor who
is continually agitating, things
are not allowed to settle down.
Kashmir is primarily Muslim,
but it has acquired another
feature, and that is the Chi-
nese. The defense so far as part
of Kashmir is concerned can
only be undertaken across the
Kashmir valley. So if every-
body withdraws, who walks
in? Who holds the plebiscite?
One has got to be practical.

QUESTION: Is Pakistan bold-
er because China could possibly
back them? Would they have
done this five years ago?

ANSWER: Pakistani foreign
policy is entirely based on sid-
ing with anyone who can help
Pakistan get Kashmir and
squeeze India. After partition
in '47, the U. S. wanted allies
against Communism, and Pak-
istan was the first to volunteer.
By 1959 when forces so far as
men were not so important, the
U. S. no longer emphasized
arming to fight Communists.
Pakistan no longer got one hun-
dred per cent support. So they
looked around for help. And
China was only too happy to
come in and promise anything
they wanted.

QUESTION: How serious is
the Chinese threat?

ANSWER: China does not
want to occup India. In the
global context of Chinese aims
and aspirations, India and what
it stands for is directly opposed
to China. And in geopolitics
the size of the population
counts. Some 700 million Chi-
nese undeveloped, poor, be-
ginning to civilize, and about
400 million poor and develop-
ing Indians — in this the race is
to get India on such terms with
China that she doesn't block
the Chinese path — just because
we have good relations with
the USSR, China is more angry
than if we had good relations
with the USA. China is the
USA's enemy and that is all
right. The pressure — physical,
psychological and political —
will increase until China is
modernized industrially and
economically.

QUESTION: Could world
opinion force a plebiscite or ac-
tion under the aegis of the

U.N.?

ANSWER: It's quite true that
Pakistan does want agitation
on the question in order that it
can get what it wants. There
may be, after the invasion, a
revival of the traditional anti-
Muslim forces, which could be
a very serious risk to coun-
tries involved and to the mod-
ernization process itself. The
other consequence is that talk
that the part of Kashmir that
India is occupying be liberated
might cause the government to
become more aggressive, and
that would be a worse situation.

tliere was interest among peo-
ple involved in admissions in
attempting to bring back some
of the qualities of the Bran-
deis-that-was. Certainly there
is some evidence for this.
There are here now creative
people from a variety of places,
and the Carnegie Program has
certainly brought some people
of different background here
this fall. But such people do
not represent as large a part
of the student body as might
be desirable

(After all, the voice of one
(jeik is as the voice of a f/iou-
saiid, and the voices of t/iou-
SAinds are as one.) It is my hope
that what Mr. Luddy has ric-
her ibed as a direction will come
to pass. But I can't buy it. It
would seem that, being in the
position to choose students, the
university ought to be able to
get the variety, to choose the
people both interesting and
creative as Mr. Luddy says it
seeks to do.

But more than this, the his-
tory of protest, most notably
the fiasco of two years ago. and
the change in the student body
since then, cannot be ignored.
Despite the denials of Mr. Lud-
dy that there is no desire to
choo.^^e a student body that will
not disturb the campus peace,
it is difficult to believe that a
university president who has
told the students that they are
here to study and should re-
strict their activities to aca-
demics (at a university convo-
cation last fall) would not be
interested in such a change in
the charter of the school. (For
geeks don't have voices.)

In closing, I note that at the
Baccalaureate Luncheon last
year President Sachar stated
that the character of an active
and protesting student body
could be changed, but that this
had not been done.

King went on to enumerate

pointed out that Mrs. Hicks at-

Lawrence Wins Second Soccermen Tie Babson,
Brandeis Tennis Tourney /^/tj:? 6-2 Game to AIC

Paul Lawrence, an electrical engrineering major from Tufts, turned back two en-
tries from MIT, to sweep the second annual Brandeis Invitational Fall College Singles
tennis championships yesterday.

The senior from Schenectedy, N.Y., won the best-of-of-five finals over Tech sopho-
more Carl Weissgerber of Buffalo, N. Y., 5-7, 6-3, 6-3, 6-1 for the Joseph M. Linsey Cup.

Weissgerber made his only bid in the first set rallying from a 2-5 games deficit.

The 6-1 mechanical engineering
major is also a Dean's List stu-
dent like his rival.

Lawrence succeeds graduate
teammate Paul Snider as the
Brandeis tourney winner. Sni-
der won a year ago over Joe
Vay of Boston University, who
bowed out this weekend in the
second round.

Lawrence is the son of for-
mer Purdue football player Ar-
thur Lawrence '32. His father
has been baseball and football
line coach at Union College in
New York the last 30 years.

Thirteen New England col-
leges had 20 e n t r i e s in this
year's field that opened Satur-
day morning.

Lawrence's victims were
Mike Brill of Clark and Bernic
Rons of Brandeis in the upetiing
ronnds and Dave Chandler of
MIT in yesterday mornings'
semifinals, 6-2, 6-0. Weissger-
ber eliminated Barry Simard of
Wt'st field State in the semis,
6-2. 6-2.

Rous reached the quarter-
finals on Saturday before losing
to Champion Lawrence, 6-2, 6-3.
The Brandeis sophomore turned
back Brian McMahon of Provi-
dence in the morning round.
Rous was brilliant as he tri-
umphed 6-0, 6-2, but he weak-
ened in the quarterfinals and
lost to Lawrence.

The other Brandeis entry,
Gerry Katz was eliminated in
the opening round by semifinal-
ist Simard, 6-2, 6-3.

By RIC USLANER

The best laid plans of Ifcccer
coaches don't include double
overtimes.

The soccer squad salvaged its
second tie of the year Saturday
against Babson in a 2-2 game
that took two extra periods.
The team lost to American In-
ternational College (AIC )
Thursday by a score of 6-2.

Coach John Hughes had pre-
dicted an excellent season for
the soccermen, but goalie trou-
bles and the lack of the ex-
pected punch in the offense
have sent the Judges' record to
1-3-2.

AIC "Disastrous"

Hugos called the AIC loss
"disastrous" and felt that the
offense should have been
stronger. "I just don't under-
stand why wc didn't score,
score, score," he said.

Goalie Steve Jacobs had a
rough time in the net in both
contests. In the first, he let two
long shots get by for AIC scores
and in the second game, he
came out of the net to call for
the ball, got entangled with
Howie Beckman '69, and let a
shot by Harris Chfeger of Bab-
son go through. "Jacobs has a
tendency to get excited," the
coach said, "but he's learning
the game."

He said that the Boston
school's center forward had ap-
parently been pushing the
Brandeis players around during
the course of the game.

Scoring in the AIC game for
the Judges were Asim Erdelik
and Diego Silba. The score stood
at 0-0 at the half and 3-2 at the
ond of the third quarter. But
the Springfield squad scored
three goals within the first four
minutes of the final quarter.

Fleischaker Outstanding

According to Hughes, Dave
Fleischaker was the most out-

standmg player on the road
trip. Cadman Mills excelled in
the AIC loss while Jack Rovner
and Howie Beckman turned the
trick on defense against Bab-
son.

Jim Collins had the second
tally for Babson Saturday, after
Beckman and Jacobs collided
outside the goal to allow
Chfeger to score .Bruce Clarkin
scored for the Judges on a head
shot in the beginning of the
third period and Cadman Mills
followed later in the period
with the second Brandeis goal.
On the goal by Clarkin, Neil
Barnott '68 had an assist.

The next game will be at
Gordon Field on Tuesday
against Tufts. The Judges will
travel to Assumption on Satur-
day.

. . . The Very Best?

Now that student course critiques have been estab-
lished at Yale, Oregon, Cornell, and CCNY (all within the
last two weeks), it is time that we had one ©1" our own.

The administrations and faculties of these schools, in
athlition to such schools as Antioch, Ree<l, and the Uni-
versity of North Carolina, have recognized the necessity
of using student opinion in determining educational
policies.

In fact, students are in an excellent position to
critically evaluate faculty i^erformance and interest. Wc
are here to get the best education possible and, though
»usce])tible to premature emotional judgments, have no
financial or vocational interests in maintaining a secure,
sniooth-runnijig system for its own sake. We do have an
interest in making sure we receive the high (juality educa-
tion we came here for.

An evaluation of courses should improve our educa-
tion in two ways: it will make professors aware of how
well they are communicating to their students, and the
students will be prompted to think more critically about
the courses available to them. It may well have the effect
of |>utting those few professors satisfied with stale, out-
ol-tiate lectures on their toes. We suggest that the critique
be useil as an informal reference for those involved in
granting faculty api>ointments and promotions.

Many professors feel that it will put unfair pressure
on faculty members, particularly untenured faculty mem-
bers, to enter a ix)pularity contest. However, this objec-
tion can be used as a guide-line in formulating the tpies-
tions: the criticjue should be extensive enough to differen-
tiate between infatuation ami rational ai)praisal.

Liist year the (Committee for an Ideal Campus tried a
hastily and p(H)rly prepared critique that flopped because
of student al>athy. This week ('ouncil's Educational Policies
Committee embarked on another attempt to produce a
critiipie. They need Council's str«)ng backing — both moral
and lijiancial. And they need the active support of the en-
tire student body.

Foer Totalitarianism?

Two weeks ago in these dis-
tinguished pages I argued that
the institution of the acidemic
deferment from military serv-
ice, as it now operates, is un-
democratic, that it discrimi-
nates against the poor to the
benefit of those who can af-
ford college, and that society
as a whole receives no partic-
ular return for its gratuitous
special treatment of all stu-
dents.

It seems to me that this is a
pretty substantial claim: name-
ly, that those of us who con-
sider ourselves to be liberal

democrats, but who enjoy the
fruits of deferment, are being
hypocritical. I would certainly
hope that someone, somewhere,
would be moved to reply — to
argue, perhaps, that society
does, somehow, benefit from
our good fortune, and that con-
sequently there is no need for
concern and we can go back
to execrating fhe South's treat-
ment of the Negro.

Instead, the only response,
courtesy of Messrs. Housman
and Sonnenblick, merely im-
plied broadly that I am a to-
talitarian, because my argu-
ment startcHl with the assump-
tion that the draft is going to
continue for the foreseeable
future. This cozy irrelevancy
might have had significajice if
(1)1 had indeed defended the
morality of the draft or of "the
systematic sacrifice of thou-
sands of lives" (I mean, how
evil can a guy be?), or (2) if
my critics had demonstrated
how they are going to abolish
the draft in the near future.

Lest I sound harsh, I would
like to thank Housman and
Sonnenblick for their kind
opening words about my polit-
ical philosophy. In fact, I wish
they had appended a bibliog-
raphy, in that much of this phi-
losophy is new to me. My ap-
petite has been whetted.

Trivia: Part IV

- Paul Solman

The Gilgamesh.

"Everybody Thinks He's An expert'

So Bob Cohen, '67, who's running second in the Trivia competition, has taken it
upon himself to '^straighten me out" on a few things. Now everybo<Iy, with the possible
exception of myself, knows by this time that Harvey Lembeck did not play Paparelli
on You'll Never (iet Rich, subsetjuently called The Phil Silvers Show. He played Corpo-
ral Barbella. Mickey Freeman evidently played Private Paparelli. Unfortunately, I wajj

states, on page 36: "Harvey

^ ^^^ Duryea starred as

Ford. Three people corrected
me on that, and they'll get a
point apiece. But Cohen does-
n't slop there. He says, "Also
Jinx definitely won in 1940, a
fact 1 have with certainty."
But I have a photostat of pp.
392-3 of Current Biography
1953 which says that, "In 1941,
Jinx Falkenburg was the first
Miss Rheingold." Scratch one
point, Mr. Cohen. And yet he
persists. "Also Barbara Lewis
is Negro, but that might have
been a typographical error on
your part." Just so happens
she's white as snow. That'll
cost another point. And I'm
knocking off another half for
implying that I make typo-
graphical errors.

Norm Winer is more careful.
Elmer Valo was not number

That was a slip on my pari.

4-way Trivia Contest

shooter in the Orient.

limbs. An arm was missing,
due to the fact th.nt the actor
had only one arm. He lost the
other one in the war.

8. Yama Bahama is running

"Yama's." He was a prominent
prize-fighter in the 1950's.

drunk at a floor party in De-

Beefeater's, 2 bottles of ale, 1
glass Vodka, 1 Tootsie Roll
pop) — that he found it impos-
sible to find the Justice mail-
box on Saturday morning."
I'm giving Norm 2 points for
that outpouring, especially
since it was corroborated by
three other entries.

Fred Cohen, '67, takes the
flag this week with a formid-
able 9 points. Dave Wucher
and Ted Zelman follow up
with 7'/^. Wucher also gets ap-
preciation for iL'ugs like. "Mark

definitions roughly as Profes-
sor Aiken gave them.

"Rationalist - 1" — One who
believes that philosophy pro-
vides, or ought to provide, a
jsuper-science (or a methodo-
logy of science).

"Rationalist - 2" — One who
takos knowledge of mathema-
tifs as the paradigmatic form
of knowledge.

"Rationalist - 3" — One who
believes that scientilic-like in-
vestigation is the highest good
man can achieve.

The "rationalist - 1" believes
that philosophical truth is not
different from scientific truth,
and that objective criteria can
be applied in both scientific
and philosophical investiga-
tions. The narrower sense of
"rationalist - 2" is the sense
used when speaking of the
Continental Rationalists. These
philosophers, among them

rationalism. Irrationalism is
a kind of obscurantism, charac-
terized by a hatred of logic and
a belief in something because
it is logically absurd. Antira-
tionalism, on the other hand,
does not imply a disrespect for
logic per se; at most, it says
that philosophy is not a proper
domain of scientific-like inves-
tigation.

All his life Martin Buber was
an antirationalist in all senses
of the word. He felt that philos-
ophy must be personal, not neu-
tral. The aim of the philosopher
is to answer tihe practical ques-
tion, How am 1 to be? Like-
wise, he was an "anti-rationa-

Three For One Act

By RICHARD JACOBSON and PAUL BLOOM

What must be said first and foremost is that there is no reason why any empty
seats should remain in the small theatre in the Hotel Touraine which houses the
Theatre Company of Boston. The company's current offerings — The Lunch Hour^
by John Mortimer, and Act Without Words #1 and Play, by Samuel Beckett — make
for an evening of high interest, if something less than complete dramatic absorption,

An evening of theatre can be a total experience. In
the case of the Brandeis Student Production Specials, the
evening was only half successful. The two plays presented
were "The Public Eye," by Peter Shaffer, and "Whisper

somewhat pedestrian affair, while the latter was a total

theatrical experience.

The first play was hampered Excellence

no one was allowed to ride off

made recompense for in its per-
formance; however, it failed to

give him!), is building an "Ul-
ster" in the South, establishing
ground security and holding on
to the main population centers
for an indefinite period. This is
necessary because of the Do-
mino Theory, namely that if
we pull out "Laos and Cam-
bodia will fall like ripe plums
when the Lao Dong shakes the
tree." While "in theory we
could shift our defense empha-
sis to Thailand, in psychological
terms this would be disastrous

now that the gauntlet has been
thrown down in Vietnam."

The task now. in this era of
twilight wars, is to reject both
the "get out" and "go up" ex-
tremes and to convince the
American people that 'total vic-
tory' and 'unconditional sur-
render' "are slogans from the
lexicon of the prenuclear
epoch."

Accepting the need to even-

tually take a stand against Com-
munist expansion, it becomes
extremely difllcult to argue
against the Administration. Mc-
Namara, Rusk and Bundy are
no idiots, and Lyndon Johnson,
himself, is an extremely intel-
ligent, perceptive, and persua-
sive individual, even without a
Harvard degree. I remember
Dr. Roche's newly found ad-
miration for the President after
an A. DA. delegation he headed
met with the Texan last year.
Since that time, apparently, Dr.
Roche's few remaining doubts
have been overcome. Whether
one agrees or not with the new
Rochean analysis, I feel that he
would be unwise to choose his
position on the basis of his trust
or distrust of any one man. For
"trust" — like "distrust" — in
the last analysis is an irrational
concept, founded finally in feel-
ing ratlier than the cool and
lucid inspection which one op-
timistically hopes will maintain
its pre-eminent place in our
system of values, if not in our
system of politics.

guessed, the Player will col-
lapse, dead, before the pitcher
is lowered into reach.

Beckett has stated that he is
more bothered by overinterpre-
tation than by erroneous inter-
pretation of his plays, and he
will not agree that any play of
his "affirms some general truth"
(Kenner). There is too much
action, too much directed ef-
fort, and not enough ballet to
allow the viewer to accept the
play simply through the eyes,

as pure movement. There is
some allegory here, and in risk-
ing the lesser evil of erroneous
interpretation, I see the play as
a kind of representation of the
absurdity of cognitive ration-
ality as a means of coping with
the very givenness of the uni-
verse. All things appear by
falling from the "sky," and the
Player would not even notice
phenomena were his attention
not forcibly called to them. The
tree is The Tree of Contempla-
tion, the Bo tree or Newton's
tree. Once aware — as much as
he can be — of the given, he
musters his dignity (the
straightening of the ludicrous
tie, the shine in Epstein's huge
round eyes), and fails in his at-
tempt to control phenomena so
as to reach his goal. And of
course the goal would be his if
he but knew when to sit still.
Texts of Act Without Words
<^1 are very hard to come by.
Some idea of how much this
performance is Beckett's, and
how much the director's would
be helpful.

One-Acter Number Three

The Play is both thematically
and dramatically removed from
Act Without Words. For peo-
ple mainly familiar with Godot
(the reviewers included), it is a
completely new aspect of Beck-
ett.

It opens with three charac-
ters, each in a funeral urn
which reveals only his head.
They are speaking three dilTer-
ent monologues simultaneously,

which creates a very powerful
dramatic effect. As the play
proceeds we understand that
these three people are a Man
(played by Ted Kazanoff), his
wife (Naomi Thornton) and his
mistress (Josephine Lane).
The characters never communi-
cate but speak separate, frag-
mented monologues; these are
united into a whole by Beckett's
superstructure of the play. Pat-
terns and cycles of action be-
come clear through the purely
verbal world of death, and the
whole, through the use of
speech patterns instead of ac-
tion, creates a musical effect.

The director is faced with the
problem of creating dramatic
emphasis without the use of ac-
tion. Mr. Wheeler solves this
nicely by employing a tiny spot
which focuses on the face of the
character who is speaking. As
the isolated monologues switch
from one character to another,
the spot flicks back and forth,
lighting a spoken fragment,
completed. The light beam sep-
arates the characters from each
other, yet unites them for the
audience in a superstructure.

Unfortunately, this device
was not technically perfected.
Sometimes the light faltered,
sometimes it made changes
after an actor had begun to
speak. The pattern of beautiful,
instantaneous changes of both
sound and vision was disrupted
by these difficulties, and it
seems curious that some small
amount of extra time was not
put into rehearsals to keep the
technical side of the perform-
ance up to the rest.

The Theatre Company of Bos-
ton specializes in avant garde,
and has presented Live Like
Pigs. Waiting For Godot. A
Slight Ache, The Caretaker and
The Dumbwaiter in former sea-
sons. The current three plays,
although not brilliantly done,
were always passable. It is an-
other one of these unfortunate
things that so few people take
advantage of this competent,
low priced theatre. This is per-
haps due to lack of publicity.
If so, consider yourself in-
formed.

fear of the "long hot summer.*^
It does not really attack the
basic problems, the "quiet,
chronic violence of day-to-day
existence." This sort of "busy
work" and undirected program
can create a whole class of poli-
ticians which feed off it (an ob-
vious reference to Adam Clay-
ton Powell) and can blind the
official view of the situation.

The final point made was that
today there appears to be a
growing trend among non-vio-
lent and other groups to arm
and defend themselves and at
least protect their basic rights.

It seems to me that the prob-
lems Dr. Clark raised are rele-
vant both to the civil rights
movement and the American
scene at large. On both levels
there is a vicious cycle and a
total containment that can only
be broken by a violent out-
break, which in turn is unreal-
istic under the circumstances.
Yet the social problem.s are im-
mediate, for they involve hu-
man lives. This is the conflict;
the immediacy of the need for
change and the fact that an
overall transformation takes
time to accomplish. The meth-
ods and tactics must create
within the individual a "sense
of self" and commitment which
can be maintained over an ex-
tended period of time. One ap-
proach is a dual functioning
from both an ideological and
realistic perspective. But as
usual, the questions are many
and the answers are vague and
few. For those interested. I
would recommend one excel-
lent analysis of a race riot and
the factors involved. The book
is Episode in the Transvaal, by
Harry Bloom.

I was rather disappointed by
the speech. I had gone there
expecting an incisive and sharp
analysis of current trends from
a man of Clark's stature and
reputation. Instead, I heard a
talk that was boring and banal.
Dr. Clark has done some very
important work on the social
psychology of the Negro in
America. But ever since he lost
the fight with Powell over con-
trol of the poverty funds in
Harlem, his work has assumed
a downward trend. This was
apparent in his latest book,
Dark Ghetto, much of which
was superficial and cliched, and
certainly apparent in last
week's lecture. This is unfortu-
nate, because today there is a
great need for clear intellectual
formulations in this area.

ftH'led by the fact that he is
going blind. Mr. Stevens' was
a captivating portrayal of a
man whose life has been a
continual setback. Each has
turned to the other in a final
starch for justification of their
lives. To them, the only escape
from the loneliness which has
plagued them for so many years
is death.

The direction by Bradley
Solomon was smooth and never
dominated the actors. His set-
tmg, a series of dull grey plat-
forms representing a rock, lent
itself well to the play in not
being obtrusive. This contrast-
ed sharply with the chaotic
and very "busy setting for the
first play.

attempt at objectively under-

would lead to a certain obfus-

could this end be seen ac-

It has been our understand-
ing that the Student Activities
Fee, collected from Brandeis
University students, is used to
support political organizations
of all persuasions. This money
supports organizations that in
some cases may be considered
radical, but since both left and
right are equally supported
there is nothing intrinsically
wrong with this policy. In ac-
cordance with this policy the
Second of May Committee is
given financial support by the
student union.

The National Second of May
movement, of which this com-
mittee is an integral part, has,
according to the New York
Times of Monday, October 18,
1965, close relations with the
National Liberation Front (the
political arm of the Viet Cong),
and has, according to the same
article, sent medical aid to the
Viet Cong. If people wish to

oppose the war in Vietnam,
they have every right to pick-
et, protest, demonstrate, and
otherwise let their dissatisfac-
tion be known. This was done
recently and we have no argu-
ment with such action. But as
long as the Viet Cong and the
United States are fighting, they
are military enemies; indeed
one definition of enemy is mili-
tary foe. This is obviously the
meaning which was referred
to in Article III, Section 3 oi
the Constitution, which states
that: "Treason against the
United States, shall consist
only in levying War against
them, or in adhering to their
Enemies, giving them aid and
comfort." We do not feel that
Student Activities Fee monies
should be used for such a pur-

pose.

K. C. Jones, eight-year Celtic veteran, in his first visit
to the Brandeis campus this fall ran into a slightly em-
barassing episode last week. Jones drove into the gym
parking lot, intending to watch this year's hoopsters
practice.

Perhaps the security guard
stationed at the gym lot wanted
to spare K.C. for at least an-
other day. The officer refused
to let Jones enter the gym area
unless he could show some
identification. Finally the man
in blue gave Jones the okay,
reportedly after extorting from
the Celtic's star guard a prom-
ise to get a G Parking sticker.

Ironically, Jones' wifo drives

the story in Oct. 11 issue of

comment. Perhaps that $1 mil-

education of the people of the
state of Alabama instead of
deifying an institution that re-
quires brawn, not brain. Foot-

lege life in most of our nation's

On Here?

Editors' note: The peculiar layout of this page results from
the last-minute withdrawal of an open letter to The Justice by
A.ssistant Professor of Philosophy Gerasimos X. Santas. This
letter concerned the dismissal of Assistant Profeissor Daniel Ben-
net. It maintained that the reasons for this action were largely
irrelevant and inadequate. The retraction came after extreme
departmental pressure was exerted on the author.

The fallowing is a statement by Dr. Rennett rel;»ting to the
Withdrawal of Dr. Santas' letter and to his own dismissal.

Statement By Bennett

I have not seen Santas* letter, which was to have ap-
peared here. I have been told what its main points were.
It strongly dissented from the decision by the tenured
philosophers not to reappoint me for another three years-
And it strongly objected to the apparent grounds on which
the decision was made.

Santas is not a tenured philosopher. He was not pres-
ent when the decision was made. He was not told what the
basis for the decision was when he asked to be told. In the
absence of direct evidence, he inferred the basis for the de^.
cision to be opinions he had, over the course of time, been
given unofficially by some members of the philosophy de-
partment. These opinions concerned my eccentricities and
vanities in dress, manner, and professional style. Some
philosophers objected to my boots. Some to the fact that
my reading lists are not always "standard"; for example,
that I have given the Marquis de Sade as suggested read-
ing. Some to the fact that I do not give low grades.

Although these objections, and others, have come to
me indirectly, they have never been made to me in a pro-
fessional context. I have, however, been told to "keep my
nose clean." (Was this a metaphor?)

I do not know what the basis for the decision was. I
believe it was not based on an assessment of all my pro-
fessional works.

Three tenured philosophers are new this semester, and
have had little chance to form their own opinion t.

The chairman did not know about a work I completed
for publication before the decision was made, until after
it was made. Had I had the least inkling that a decision
was to be made so unusually early in the year, and before
the new members could form an opinion, I would have
brought this work to his attention. In any case, no attempt
was made on the part of the department to find out if I
had been writing anything which would be relevant in
making the decision.

Santas was caused to l>elieve that his letter's appear-
ing in the pages of the Justice would be "improper," lie-
cause it is "improper" to air grievances by faculty mem-
bers against faculty members outside the faculty. This
kind of con>orate loyalty despite injustice, or apparent
injustice, I do not share, especially when it is apparent
that the abuse and others of its kind will not be corrected
within the body of the faculty itself, and that the abuse
and others of its kind affects more than just the faculty.

Dan Bennett

took as one essential consider-
ation, his teaching competence.
For understandable reasons it
is not our policy to divulge all
considerations entering into
such decisions. It is unfortu-
nate that discussion by others
of the objective merits of this
decision can not, in the nature
of this case, take place in the
light of all the relevant fac-
tors."

In the decision to renew an
initial three-year contract par-
ticular importance is given to
past, and possible future pul>-
lications. The policy of the Phi-
losophy Department is that a
second three year contract is
awarded with the presumption
that the professor will receive
tenure at its termination. A
candidate's publications record
is an essential consideration in
the awarding of tenure, and
therefore also in the decision to
award the second three year
contract.

Dr. Bennett is 37 years old
and has publishtKi a paper,
"Action, Reason and Purpose"
in the Journal of Philosophy.
Vol. LXIl No. 4. Fob. 18. laSs!
a review of Causation in t h e
Law by Hart and Honore in the
Stanford Law Review, Vol.
XIII No. 3, May, 1961. Soon to
be published is a review, soli-
cited by tiie Journal of Philos-
ophy, of Rationality by Jona-
then Bennett (no relation).

Dr. Bennett was not given a
one-year terminating contract
— a contract which would ex-
tend to June of next year

which is usually offered in
cases of this kind.

According to Sommers. the
meeting was held this early in
the year so that, in case of a
negative decision. Dr. Bennett
would have the maximum po.«i-
sible time to secure another ap-
pointment. The professional
philosophic associations meet
during Christmas, and at these
meetings informal arrange-
ments are made with respect to

Last week brought a passel —

Bennett

For the second time in two years, a talented junior
member of the Brandeis Philosophy Dej)artment has been
dismissed from the faculty. Th;s will be Professor Dan
Bennett's last year at Brandeis, for, about ten days ago,
the tenured members of hi.s department voted not to re-
new his contract here.

The decision was made quickly and quietly — so
quietly, in fact, that, with utter discourtesy, Di. Bennett
was not even told that his contract was up for renewal; so
far as can be determine^!, he was only informed of the re-
sults of this secret conclave after the fact. Again, it
seems that this decision was reacheil with most wicked
speed in yet another sense: the three new members of the

Philosophy Department cannot have had sufficient time to
make their appraisal of Dr. Bennett. The reasons for this
twofold haste remain unknown.

Because of the secrecy which invariably, under the
present system, surrounds decisions pertaining to the
hiring and firing of faculty members, it is practically im-
p4)ssible to determine what criteria formed the basis of
this decision. Perhaps, as Dr. Sommers states. Dr. Ben-
nett's teaching and publication record were the primary
factors of consideration. (We note in passing, however,
that ''publish or perish" is a bit of a misnomer; there are
faculty members who have neither published nor perished.
Apparently, the "publication issue" is used at the discre-
tion of tenured members. Again, as far as Dr. Bennett's
teaching record is concerned, it seems that no vtudent of
his was consulte<l about his ability). Perhaps, as others
have suggested, the criteria were in fact irrelevant, in-
adequate, or insane. The truth cannot Ije known. This
much is indisputable, however: neither the judgement of
the students concerned was considered, nor their interest
uphel<l.

For this much is certain: Dan Bennett is not the
biggest victim of this dictate. His professional standing
will not, in all probability, be permanently impaired, for
his talents are considerable. He, least of all, is in need of
personal vindication as a result of this slap in the face by
his erstwhile colleagues. The intensity of his concern with
the world beyond, as well as the world within the academic
ivory towers insures that.

No. As usual, the real losers are the students at
Brandeis University. Dr. Bennett's primary concern at
Brandeis is, above all, its students. He is uniquely ac-
cessible, at any time of the day, any day of the week, to
those who, for any reason, wanted his advice, his time,
his energy, his company. His is a unique talent for render-
ing concrete, in the classroom, the philosophically abstruse.
He has been the primary faculty initiator, during the past
three years, of action on what the President of this uni-
versity has described as the most important contemporary
American problem, civil rights.

That is to say, the Brandeis student body is about to
)ofie a fine teacher, a gooil friend, a vibrant human being,
through a process of whose workings they and he were
purposefully kept ignorant.

In a sense, then, the issue transcends the per.sonal,
because, once again at Brandeis, the personal element has
been sacrificed by and to the institutional. All of the
literally hundre<ls of students who know Dan Bennett have
been victims of the present system of secrecy, beciiuse
registered as part of the process of decision-making. That
is, .so long as the present system exists, the Brandeis stu-
dent body is sometimes actually, and always potentially, in
educational pawn.

There exists a vanguard of universities which
remedies this glaring defect in the faculty appointment
system by giving their student bodies a voice in the deci-
sion-making process. These schools include Yale, Oregon,
and C.C.N.Y. Obviously, and, as the case of Dan Bennett
demonstrates, most regrettably, Brandeis is not part of
this vanguard.

Letters to the Editor

Orgy Donalrlli

To the Editor:

I would like to call your at-
tention to several inaccuracies
in last week's report on the Stu-
dent Council meeting.

The entire statement concern-
ing "a complaint of sour grapes'
against the recently formed
Dionysian Orgy Club . . .
lodged by Robert Hort, 67, co-
founder of the yet-to-be-organ-
ized HortAcultural Society, who
claimed that the Dionysian
group stole one of his club-to-
be's functions" is false and mis-
leading. Bob Hort made no
mention of the Dionysian group.
Nowhere in the Constitution of
HAS is there any mention of
orgies as a Society function.
While the two organizations
may have arisen in answer to
the same need for group activi-
ties of a casual and recreational
nature, they are in no other re-
spect similar. The two groups
are neither in competition nor
in conjunction with each other.

A second statement, "We will
oppose intellectualism, empha-
sizing interests not stressed
here," is also misleading. The
direct quotation from the Con-
stitution ol the HortAcultural
Society, made by Larry White
(not Bob Hort) in presenting
the plans for the group's organ-
ization is as follows:

"The HortAcultural Society,
to be known as HAS, is founded
by students who have become
profoundly disturbed by the
over-emphasis of intellectual-
ism to be found at Brandeis.
Although not anti-intellectual,
this society feels that too much
of anything is detrimental. It is
the purpose of this society to
expand activities at Brandeis
with an emphasis on areas
which have been neglected up
until now."

The entire tone of the report
is misleading and presents the
founders of HAS as being guilty
of anti-intellectualism and sour
grapes. This impression is at
odds with the founding spirit
of the Society which believes
that the intelligent (and intel-
lectual) student body will wel-
come the opportunity to revi-
talize Brandeis social life which
has been left too long founder-
ing on individual initiative.

The Enemy Within

Dear Sirs:

In last week's Justice six
Brandeis students attacked the
May Second Movement for al-
leged sending of aid to the Na-
tional Liberation Front of
South Viet Nam. They called
for Student Council to refuse
to allocate funds to an organ-
ization which is helping the
"enemies of the United States."

Their letter lacks any foun-
dation in empirical fact and
shows a lack ol understanding
of the social realities of our
world.

Empirically, two incontro-
vertible facts confront them.
1.) Neither the Brandeis M2M
chapter or the national M2M
has ever sent aid of any kind
to the NLF. 2. As judicial
precedent has interpreted the
constitution no group is legally
the enemy of the U. S. unless
we are in a declared state of
war against them. (The gentle-
men might ponder why the
U. S. has not bothered to
declare war against a people
they bomb, torture and muti-
late daily.)

A more serious and complex
question goes beyond the mere-
ly technical one of whether we
have or have not sent supplies
to South Viet Nam. The real
question raised by the letter
deals with the meaning of the
word enemy.

We w'>uld ask the following.
Are the enemies of those who
reap the mighty profits from
our warfare - dominated econ-
omy also the enemies of the
unemployed miner in West
Virginia, the Blacks of Watts
and Harlem, the auto worker
in Lansing. Michigan, the
Perto Rican private at Da
Nang or the student at Bran-
deis University? Is the U. S. so
classless that the enemy of one
American is necessarily the
enemy of another?

To us, the answers are em-
phatically no. The Viet Cong
and the forces of progress they
represent are not our enemies.
We welcome the advances of
the poor peoples of this world
for wo know that their devel-
opment as human beings is a
necessary complement to our
development. We realize that
our freedom can never be ful-
filled until they arc free.

But Messrs. Rockefeller and
DuPont do not feel this way.
They see the NLF as a poten-
tial threat to their absolute
powers. They sense in the rise
of the oppressed the end of
their prerogatives and privi-
leges.

We would suggest to the let-
ter writers that they rethink
their concept of the word
enemy. If they do, perhaps
they will seek to condemn
President Johnson and his
Congress as the real enemies
of the U. S. people. Perhaps
they will realize that it is the
vast U. S. aid to dictators like
Somoza of Nicaragua, Salazar
of Portugal, Franco of Spain
and Diem of South Viet Nam
that is the real treason.

The May Second Movement
supports the National Libera-
tion Front without reservation
and we demand, along with
the people of Vietnam, that the
U. S. government withdraw all
troops from Vietnam immedi-
ately. Richard Rapfogel,

To the Editors:

We note with great displeas-
ure the announcement of the
University that the American
Jewish Historical Society will
soon become a resident part of
this campus . Whereas the Uni-
versity has in the past claimed
a i.on-sectarian, and now a
pan-sectarian status, it has al-
ways followed policies, regard-
ing as diverse fields as aca-
demic conference topics and
general student dietary regula-
tions, which have made the
school neither non-sectarian
nor pan-sectarian, but highly
sectarian, and ethnically ori-
ented. This latest announce-
ment, indicating an offer ol
free land to the Society, shows
clearly this commitment of the
University to foster a develop-
ment of specific religious and
ethnic interests. We ask that
the University, if it continues
its present inclination, drop its
mask of pan-.sectarianism, and
represent itself truthfully as a
Jewish oriented institution.

S B R Declares Student
Right to Remain Silent

Students have the right to remain silent when summoned and questioned by a Dean
of the University about disciplinary matters. The SBR decided in a recent apinioii,
which in part read:

This court has committed itself to a guarantee of student rights including the pro-
cedural safeguards of due process. In the case befi>re us, the defendent was summoned
to the office of a Dean of the University before his case reached the docket of the Stu-
dent Board of Review. At this

time, in reply to the question,
"What happened?" the defend-
ant made a statement concern-
ing his case. The defendant was
at no time informed of his rij^ht
to remain silent.

As the judicial arm of stu-
dent government, the Student
Board of Review has under-
taken the task of hearing and
judging cases brought by the
University against a student.
Implicit in this acceptance of
judicial function is the Court's
understanding that its proceed-
ings will at all times, even at
the pre-trial level, guarantee
students the safeguards of due
process. The Student Board of
Review cannot accept cases in
which the office of a Dean, by
its actions, has denied a student
fundamental due process of
law. By summoning the de-
fendant and not informing him
•f his right to remain silent, the
office of the Dean violated the
defendant's procedural rights.
For this reason the Court dis-
misses the case on the grounds
of improner procedure.

The Office of the Dean of
Students, in accord with this
decision, is drafting a form
which will inform students
summoned to the office to dis-
cuss disciplinary ma Hers of
their right to remain .silent.

Problems, Problems

They cited the problems
which might arise in obtaining
money for future student ac-
tivities from Dr. Sachar if he
were to find out that Council
funds were used to support an
official Dionysian Orgy Club.
They reminded Council that
Dr. Sachar receives a list twice
annually of all Council-spon-
sored organizations and that he
would, in ail probability,
frown on such groups as the
Orgy Club.

The meeting, which had been
planned as a short discussion
of the Executive Board report,
was extended by a request for
a $600 budget increase by the
Outing Club.

The club, which in the past
has had a very small member-
ship, was allocated $300 in the
budget drawn up by Council
at the end of last year. Since
SAF collection has been only
about 90%, this figure was cut
by Council to $280.

Club President Suz:y Feiner,
'67, claimed that the group had
increased both in size and ac-
tivity and that they had already
spent almost their entire allo-
cation. She declared that the
additional funds would be used
for such activities as ski trips,
spelunking, day hikes, over-
nights, canoe trips, and horse-
back riding.

The major expenses cited in
these areas were equipment
rental and transportation. In
addition, the Outing Club re-
quested money for the purchase
of equipment ranging from
ropes for mountain climbing to
ininer'j helmets for spelunk-
ing.

Some Council members
raised the question of whether
Council should pay for luxury
items that students could pro-
vide for themselves. They held
that the role of Council-spon-
sored organizations should be
to provide only those activities
which would not normally l>e
available to students. Bloch,
speaking for the Council, ad-
vised the club to prepare a
written, fully itemized budget
request to be submitted to
Council for discussion at its
next meeting.

Dissent: The Right of the People

It was on April Fool's Day in 1917, a week before he declared to a Joint Session of
Con^rress how terrible a thing it is to lead the great peaceful American people into war,
that President Wi.son made a prediction:

Historical Semantics

By JEFF COHEN

Visiting Professor of English Owen Barfield delivered
a paper Thursday entitled **The Semantic Approach to
History and the Historic Approach to the Problem of
Meaning." This lecture was the first of a four-part series
dealing with the theme, "Language, Meaning, and His-
tory."

courts, the policeman on the
beat, the man in the street.

Wilson's diagnosis was correct,
for war and civil liberties are
almost necessarily incompat-
ible, yet the loss of civil lib-
erties seemed a small price
when it came to making the
world safe for Democrncy.

During that first of world
wars, in Oscar Handlin's words,
"The embnttled citizens of the
Republic drifted in an orgy of
haired." The Committee on
Public Information certified
that the war was 100% Amer-
ican ;md that thert^fore no true
American could dissent. Hy-
phenated Americans whose loy-
alties might have been divided
found it convenient to Anglo-
Saxonize their patronymics;
even harmless sauerkraut be-
came "liberty cabbage."

Dissent During: War

Since the Great War, the
grand American melting pol
has cooked away many of th(^
ethnic factors which made for
dissent in 1917. Yet, like the
Bible's poor, the dissenters we
will have always with us, and

protests present a "clear and
present danger to the security
of the United States in any ma-
jor way yet." But mark that
word "yet." The Administra-
tion must follow the political
winds, and the winds are blow-
ing stronger and stronger
against the First Amendment.

Security First?

I submit that Reston's argu-
ment is but a slightly weaker
form of the classic argument
that was used, for example, in
World War Two to put the
Nisei in concentration camps.
Former Vice President Rich-

in time of w'nr we must always
face the question that is quint-
es.vential to the continuance of
democracy: what shall we do
with those dis-unifyinj? ele-
ments at the moment when
unity seems vital to our nation-
al existence?

The present is rapidly be-
coming one such moment.
We're not officially at war yet,
but all indications are that it's
a good time to sell your stocks
in civil liberties; tlie price is
going up so fast that few buy-
ers are going to remain in the
market.

Just take a quick look
nround. At Manhattan College

was attacked by

Wisconsin, a resolution was in-
troduced in the State Senate
calling for the expulsion of ten
University of Wi.sconsin stu-
dents who took part in an anti-
w a r demonstration. M e a n-
while. cities around the country
are planning a series of "Viet-
nam Backup" demonstrations
on Veterans Day. These plans,
the New York Times reports,
have led the American Civil
Liberties Union to assert that
"freedom of speech is not a
right reserved only for the ma-
jority," and that "criticism of
American policy is not equiva-
lent to 'anti-Americanism.' '*
Criticism vs. Civil Liberties
Such reminders are abso-
1 u t e 1 y essential, especially
since the Administration's own
position with regard to pro-
test .seems to be teetering be-
tween its declared respect for
civil liberties and its natural
tendency to want to cut off
criticism. The day after the
large demonstrations. Attorney
General Katzenbach told the
press, "Whenever you have a
situation in which people are
saying things similar to what
is being said by Peking, you
are likely to find some Commu-
nists involved in it." More flat-
ly, he continued, "There are
some Communists involved in
it." Few would deny this, and
few would deny that the Gov
crnment has at least a
and perhaps even a responsi-
bility to know just who it is
that is protesting its policies,
i.e., whether the protest is in-
digenous or imported from
Mo.scow or Pekin. But one can
only fear that the Administra-
tion is going to make the leap
from labeling a minority of
the protesters to attacking the

Anti-Protest Issue

The potency of the anti -pro-
test issue is seen in the present
New Jer.sey gubernatorial cam-
paign. Wayne Dumont, Jr., a
Republican running against
incumbent Richard Hughes, has
made his only strong i.ssue the
question of whether a Rutgers
professor named Genovese,
who told his students that he
welcomed a Viet Cong victory
in Vietnam, should be allowed

ard M. Nixon states it this
way: "Unfortunately, there are
occasions — particularly in
wartime — when the individ-
ual's rights and the nation's
security come in conflict." On
these occasions, we must place
security first. It's true that
Nixon seemingly doesn't want
to carry this logic too far, and
says, "I say as long as the
demonstrators and those par-
ticipating in teach-ins are act-

Thr study of history for its
own sake, Professor Barfield
claimed, is a relatively new
activity. Before the beginning
of the eighteenth century, in-
dividuals did not cojisider "the
imaginative reconstruction of
tihe past" an enterprise worthy
of academic concern. In fact,
until tile attitude of historical
progress replaced the jnotion
that history traced the decline
of man through time( pre-
sumably since that fateful day
in the Garden of Eden), any
historical discipline as we un-
derstand it was inconceivable.
This conceptual change created
a new interest in historiogra-
phy, the study of the metho-
dology and philosophy of his-
tory, which has become the
dominant Interest of many con-
temporary historians.

Professor Barfield used R.G.
Collingwood's The Idea of His-
tory to introduce the major part
of his paper. Collingwood main-
tains that history is now
emerging from under the gen-
eral rubric of scientific studies
and becoming a distinct ap-
proach to "facts," a new type

has come with the critical reali-
zatioxi that

points Professor Barfield then
claimed that whether or not the
liistorian reenacts the thought
of the past, all of us do it when-
ever we write or speak. In
these activities we are reenact-
ing past uses and meanings of
words.

The fact that meanings of
words develop through time
underlies "the semantic ap-
proach to history." This ap-
proach gives primary import-
ance to studying the way in
which thoughts have, through
time, come to be associated

Professor Barfield made a
quasi - philosophic distinction
fundemental to this theory. He
said that a word has two mean-
ings: the lexical (i.e. diction-
ary) meaning which is the in-
dicator of a word's force and
general usage; and the speak-
er's meaning which is used to
convey intention. The former
is the norm used to determine
correct usage; the latter de-
pends on circumstance and mo-
tivation. This distinction is im-
portant for two reasons: it is
the source of imperfect com-
munication and it is a key to

nearly all individuals can be
tied in with the state in one
vvay or another, Nixon's dis-
tinction becomes nearly mean-
ingless.

Unity at Home?

The freneral form of the
argument which I am attacking;
is this: in order to gain such
and such an ob.iective abroad,
we must maintain, at any cost,
unity at home. In point of fact,
this may or may not be true.
In the cases of Vietnam, it is
quite spurious. But the ques-
tion is, what limits can be
placed on this argument? What

to teach in a state-supported in- ing'in an individual and private
stitution. "We have 140.000
men in Vietnam dodging bul-
lets," argues Dumont, "and
Genovese's views can only be
achieved by killing Americans
there. This is a question not of
academic freedom but of aca-
demic license." Hughes has of-
pro-Adminis- ficially sided with academic
In Madison, freedom, but the danger is
clearly emphasized in Dumont's
stated strategy: "This is one
issue the man in the street
really understands."

"If this undeclared war goes
on and the cost goes up . . ."
says the NEW Ri:Pl BLIC with
careful understatement, "pro-
testers may be kicked around
more savagely, verbally if not
physically, than they are to-
day." Why must we be launched
into aonother "orgy of ha-
tred?" What compels us to
suppress dissent?

The war itself drains us of
rationality. First, as more
Americans back home will be
personally and emotionally in-
volved in the war effort, and
will blindly consider all those
opposed to this efl'ort to be
traitors, somehow responsible
for the loss of American life.
Moreover, when a nation com-
mits itself to a policy that en-
tails ma.ssive killing, dying,
and spending, that nation, as
President Wilson suggested,
damn well wants to think that
it is completely right in its un-
dertaking, and in its righteous-
ness is unwilling to brook
the qui^tioning of dissenters.
(Commitment doesn*t have to
follow from right; it can make
right.)

Secondly, there is the argu-
ment, used by everyone from
right Lyndon Johnson to James Res-
ton, that the protesters today
are (in Reston's words) "inad-
vertently working against all
those things they want, and
creating all the things they
fear most," becau.se they are
persuading Ho Chi Minh and
General Giap into prolonging
the war. As a result of the

Language also develops
through an interaction ol its
two primary functions, expres-

"fullness" or "meaningfulness:"
that is, the point at which
language can be used as an in-
strument that completely re-

Two examples were given by
Professor Barfield in order to

ends. Giving the position of a

historians. These conclusions
are based on the fact that like
houses, historical events have
two sides: an inside and an out-
side. The outside of an event
involves descriptions of physi-
cal bodies and their related
movements. The inside of an
event is its thought content, the
motives, desires, and espoused
principles of the relevant par-
ticipants. Because the insides
of events are the only parts that

Jazz & Function

By RICHARD BURGIN

A controversy began when Cecil Taylor, in a recent
issue of Down Beat, referred to Bill Kvans as **Boring,
I cannot think it predictable ... a competent cat — that's all."

precisely People started sending letters to Down Beat in de-

The majority of them were against avant
neral, and Cecil Taylor in particular. The

sui'h as it was, Gregory came
to us as a paid entertainer, and
wound up as a sociology in-
structor, or a seminar leader in
moral philosophy — ^but without
the intellectual trimmings.

Gregory has impressive cre-
dentials as a moral teacher: he
alone can speak to us of Watts
with both intuitive and in-
structed understanding: he
was shot there, by Negroes,
trying to calm the riots which
he later identified with the
American revolution. What a
moral struggle the man must
hnve been through, trying per-
sonally to calm a senseless vio-
lence, frenzied, as he made it
out, even beyond the natural,
while he himself burns with
the same hatred for the crush-
ing weight which made for that
crushing anger.

What is most important
about Gregory is not his abil-
ity to turn paid entertainment
into serious ethical confronta-
tion; any actor may try to do
that. It is his capacity for sen-
sitive imagination, which (as I
tried to prove last year) is the
most "human" and highest of
human capacities. It is the ba-
sis of all tenderness, and Greg-
ory, through his style, showed
it. Gregory works by con-
structs: he establishes an im-
age, expands it, and then shows
how his allegory is a reductio
ad absurdum of an actual situ-
ation. Reductio ad absurdum, I
have been told, is not a telling
philosophical argument, and
there is no question that Greg-
ory was not philosophically
rigorous. That is not the busi-
ness of artists trying to raise a
kind of response in nerves long
insensitive. He is eflective
without the tightest of argu-
ments. Besides, two other
moral teachers occasionally re-
ferred to in our society also
taught by allegory; I hesitate
to name them: they were both
condemned criminals. But those
two, one a Greek and the other
a Palestinian Jew, also showed
a capacity for humorous ten-
derness too galling to the hard-
ened society about them, and
one drank hemlock, and the
other was nailed to a cross.
Capital Punishment

Gregory worked into the first

of his extended constructs with
mention of capital punishment.
The minister accompanies the
prisoner to the steel chair, and
stands at the door. "Anything
I can do for you, son?" he asks.
"Yessir. Just come in and hold
my hand." Gregory tells us
that not one, but five men pull
switches on the electric chair,
only one of which is live. "You
know who I'd like to be? I'd
like to be the man who wires
them switches. After the man
fries, I'd tell 'em who did it.
You did it baby." Gallows hu-
mor— but just. He goes on to

where you gonna put your
brush?"

His point, that Americans
systematically misinterpret
events so as to accord with
their anxiety-relaxing mythol-
ogy about the world, seems en-
tirely just. Gregory hits out at
those who called the Vietnam
demonstrators draft - dodgers.
"Man, there's been draft-dodg-
ers in this country for a hun-
dred years. In 1863 they killed
hundreds of people in the
streets of New York, just 'cau.se
they didn't want to go to war."
But the point Americans don't

tell us that they ought to pick realize is that instead of hiding,

out the executioner, "just like
they picks a jury. Imagine
your aunt up in bed, and
they've picked her name out of
a hat, and she goes to turn on
the light and Whew! That does
it." Or cLse, there ought to be
just one national day of execu-
tion. Christmas Eve. Then they
wire each electric chair to-
gether, and wire them all to
the national Christmas tree on
the White Hou.se lawn. "Then
they call up Big Daddy, and
they tell him the Christmas
tree's gone out, he's gonna have
to light it up again. And Big
Daddy pulls that switch."

LBJ, perhaps our most ex-
asperating national absurdity,
is one of Gregory's favorite
targets. "God ain't gonna let
LBJ die; he wants to run things
up there by himself." Or more
tellingly, in a more ancient
tradition, "I'll bet some people
wish LBJ had been elected
Pope instead of President. Then
they would only have to kiss
his ring." This is really not un-
fair when you're talking about
someone quoted as saying
(more or less), "I don't trust a
man unless I've got his pecker
in my pocket."

Can We Think?

Gregory's claim is that we
could solve our problems, "if
only the American people

an attitude to-
ch, is sadly a
common attitude towards all
music, all forms of art, indeed
towards other human beings.

For these people, jazz has to
be played a certain way, the
"right" way, just as painters
"must paint in the right way,
and people must behave in the
"right" way.

It is one thing when Cecil
Taylor, in the midst of creating
a new conception of jazz, ex-
presses his feeling about a col-
league. It is another matter
when a layman writes a letter
denouncing Taylor, dismissing
him as a pretentious fraud for
having questioned the great-
ness of the layman's favorite
jazz pianist.

That Taylor feels as he does
about Bill Evans is understand-
able. In many ways Evans' ap-
proach to jazz is diametrically

opposed to Taylor's. Evans is
more interested in perfecting
the song form than in creating
new forms. His entire concep-
tion of music is a result of cer-
tain laws of melodic and rhyth-
mic symmetry which he ac-
cepts, but which Taylor chal-
lenges. Evans uses fundamen-
tally impressionist harmonies.
For Taylor harmony is sub-
servient to the development of
the melodic lines and to the
rhythmic tension he perpetu-
ates. Evans plays the piano
delicately, with economy and
introspection; Taylor is a tar
more percussive pianist who
tries to give in each piece a
complete expression of the
feeling he wants to explore. To
try to judge who is the greater
musician .seems to me pointless.
They are moving in different
directions. Taylor, for exam-
ple, almost always plays his
own compositions', whereas
Evans rarely does. Taylor
want to develop more as a
compo.ser; Evans' prim<^ con-
sideration is the group soimd,
the composition being imma-
terial. (He has recorded a wide
variety of pieces ranging from
the "Gymnopedie" of Satie to
"Someday My Prince Will
Come.")

If one wants to pass judge-

cretly like the way we are the
best, b) We are all well ac-
quainted with the subtlest ad-
vantages of our respective
characters. And c) we all tend
to forget that all the spectators

who feel just the same way
about themselves.

Story II which I dare not interpret: Here is another
story 1 heard recently. It is serious, and full of unseizable
enigma. Several summers ago, a young man from the
north-west and his girlfriend planned a trip to Europe to-
gether. They were known, individually, to be unstable peo- ment, one might say that Tay
pie, and colleetively, to be a couple very much in love.

Just before leaving, the girl-

friend gave a letter, sealed in a
red envelope, to a confidant of
hers, and cheerfully explained
that it was a surprise, not to be
opened until late August. Then

they left.

While their friends wondered
how their trip was going, they
were neither very surprised
nor very insulted to receive no
communication from the
couple. The family of the girl-
friend did, in the ensuing
weeks, receive several short
notes, of a dieerful and pleas-
ant tone, althougli curiously
lacking in detail about their
daughter's activities.

Finally, the people back
home did receive word. The
young man and his girlfriend
had killed themselves in Rome.

The confidant's letter was
opened. It stated the plans of
the couple were to do exactly
as they had done: to travel for
a month and a half and then to
kill themselves. How can we
imagine the thoughts of these
two people, wandering across
Europe judging whatever they
saw with reference to their
impending act. their almost
casual participation in their
own funeral procession?

Why Stupid People Talk

subtle and profound feeling.
He seems to create from a mind
that rvvvrvF music as some-
thing refined and holy.

It is wonderful to have a
timeless fellow like Bill Evans
near you, and it is also won-
derful to have Cecil Taylor
starching for new modes of
expression. A gener.'ilize{l idea
of jazz or of any art (includ-
ing the art of living) creates a
ceiling that crushers gr<jwth.

Rules are the enemy of the
artist.

The artist derie.«^ the absolute.
He is dealing with life, after
all, not text':>ooks and i.s,
therefore, most concerned
with renl'xin" 1h;it which is
nfinite. For him these "rules"
mean death, antl for the aitist
death has no creative function
in his conception of infinity.

/At many cx>mpanies the opportunity to work on'
challenging projects cxMnes after many years of
apprenticeship and a few grey hairs. Not so at '
;Ford Motor Company where your twenties can '
be a stimulating period. There are opportunities
to prove your worth early in your career. Dale
Anderson^s experience is a case in point.
After receiving his B.A. in Physics in June, 1962,^
Dale joined our College Graduate Program and
was assigned to our Research Laboratories.
Recently he was given the responsibility for cor-
recting cab vibration occurring on a particular'
type of truck. His studies showed that tire eccen-
^tricity was the cause of the trouble. Since little change could be effected
\igk tire compUanoe, his solution lay in redesigning the suspension system.
|Tests of this experimental system show the problem to be reduced to an
insignificant level.

^That's typical of the kind of meaningful assignments given to employes
while still in the College Graduate Program— regardless of their career
^interest. No "make work" superficial jobs. And, besides offering tlie oppor-'
^tunity to work on important problems demanding fresh solutions, we offer
rood salaries, a highly professional atmosphere and the proximity tO;

type of situation justifies the
demand for unity? And when
the demand is justified (if it
can be), to what degree might
unity be coerced? Would it
mean that one cannot speak
in favor of the Viet Cong, or
cannot speak against the Ad-
ministration's policy, or can-
not speak against the Presi-
dents personality, or cannot
think nasty thoughts? For that
matter, if unity is so precious,
how can we justify the divisive-

which would surely disrupt the
nation and open us up to our

There is only one way to
avoid the dangers of this logic,
and that is to avoid the argu-
ment completely. The freedoms

the streets, 15,000 troops were

"Imagine that happening in 100

Gregory's most important
message is that the fight is not

between Right and Wrong, and
that no matter how bloody the

eventually triumphs. And we

Joel D. Schwartz, one of the

In defense of his organiza-
tion, Brandeis May Second

Rapfogel, '68, denied that ei-
ther the campus chapter or the
national office has sent any aid

to the National Liberalioa
Front. He said that the Comr

Students supporting the
movement's right to get Counr-

is little anyone could do to de-

the Student Union Constitu-

who are wary of the May Sec-

still question the notion of
treason since the United States

Rapfogel said of the petition-

Soccermen Face Lowell Tech;

Ky RIC IJSLANER

If you have nJssed the soccer season at Brandeis, you still have two chances to
make up lor it The first is real, the second vicarious.

The hooters will take on Lowell Tech at Gordon Field Thursday at 2:30. It will be
the Judges' last effort of the year and will determine whether the team has a winning,
losing, or even season.

A tie will put the team at 4-4-3 for the year; a win at 5-4-2 and a loss at 4-5-2.
The squad is keyed up for the
game and expects to achieve
the second alternative.

Crowd sizes have varied from
game to game and a large turn-
out could help the final eflfort.
However, if you can't make it
there in person, the technologi-
cal miracle of television will do
it for you.

WGBH-TV, Channel 2, the
educational station in Boston,
will present a tape of the game
the same night at 9 p.m. This
will be the second Brandeis
game the station has telecast
this season. The Judges lost the
first one to Stonehill early lasl
month.

The soccermen had an off-
agaiii, on-again spell again last
week. They overpowered Bar-
rington 4-2 on Saturday, but

Next Sunday the dedication of the new Gkjrstenzang
Science Quadrangle will be marked by a special convoca-
tion. This multimillion dollar science complex is just one
step in the development of the University's physical
facilities.

Last June the Spingold Theatre Arts Center was
dedicated in an elaborate ceremony.. The Spingold buildinf?
will provide the theatre arts department with modem
facilities to implement the growing Brandeis theatre pro-
gram.

The American Jewish Historical Society will house
its headquarters on the Brandeis campus. Construction
began immediately after the dismissal of a suit in Federal
Court against the transfer of the Society from New York
to Brandeis.

Yet one phase of University development has been
conspicuously inadequate. As enrollment has increased
within the University, physical needs have also increased
for the departments.

But the Brandeis athletic situation has been blatantly
ignored for several years.

With a freshmen class of over 500 and a total enroll-
ment of over 1600, the Shapiro Athletic Center cannot
I>ossibly be utilized with any amount of success. The prob-
lem is simple -- a lack of space and facilities.

If the University is to remain a liberal arts institu-
tion dedicated to all facets of education, it cannot, and
must not. ignore the role of athletics.

A first step was made last year with the hiring of
K. C. Jones as basketball coach and a revamping of the
varsity athletic program.

But without the necessary facilities, varsity athletica
and physical education will remain somewhat sic*gnant.

The current situation is deplorable. Many of the physi-
cal education classes overlap. The men and women's phys.
ed. classes are forced to use the same gymnasium floor for
their respective classes- Certain men's classes overlap with
two instructors and 50 students crowding the floor.

But perhaps the varsity situation is most striking.
During the winter season the basketball, fencing and track
teams are forced to use the same gymnasium for their
practices. This situation leads to confusion and inefficiency.

If there is real interest in an athletic program at
BrandeLs. the administration must take immediate action
to alleviate the situation.

New athletic buildings should include a fieldhouse
with an indoor track and areas for baseball, soccer and
football practice.

Another building should be constructed to house facil-
ities for several basketball, handball and volleyball courts
as well as weight, fencing and wrestling rooms. A new
modernized locker room complex should also be included.

The baseball and soccer fields should be done over,
reseeded and cared for to insure adequate spring and fall
programs. Lights should be put up on the fields to provide
lor night intramural football and baseball.

Outdoor basketball and handball courts should be
constructed.

Also last year an announcement was made heralding
the new swimming pool. Joseph Linsey had contributed in
the range of $500,000 for the pool. But as of last week only
the preliminary plans had been n.ade and construction had
not started.

If athletics is to become a more integral pc^rt of the
Brandeis education experience, acequate physical devlop-
ment must be made now to guarantee the continued
existence of the athletic program.

Students Protest
Bennett Dismissal

A group of twenty Brandeis students, working m
conjunction with Professor Daniel Bennett, last week pre-
sented to the student body a fact sheet concerning the
recent decision of the tenured members in the Philosophy
Department not to renew the professor's contract. The fact
sheet implies that the decision was based on non-academic
criteria and was, therefore,

FAST FOR FREEDOM

Brandeis will take part in the

Fourth Annual Thanksgiving

Fast for Freedom, a nation-
wide college program to help
provide food tor impoverished
Negro families in several South-
ern states. In 1964 the Thanks-
giving Fast rai.sed more than
$38,000 and succeeded in pro-
viding food for over 100,000
Mississippi Negroes. The idea
for the Fast originated four
years ago at Brandeis.

On November 18, students
may voluntarily abstain from
dinner. The money thus saved
will be used under section 1431
of Title VII of the United States
code to pay administrative costs
for distributing government
surplus food. Sign-up sheets
will be posted in all dining
halls for those who wish to join

the fast.

Lamenl

Due to circum.stances be-
yond the control of the
Fourth Estate, such as in-
clement courses and Clement
Atlee, the Justice will not
hit the stands next week.
The staff joins together in
wishing our readers a most
happy Veteran's Day.

A major
science" for
atives in Vietnam will be
held in Wa.shington on the
Saturday of Thanksgiving
(Nov. 27). Following a morn-
ing picket of the White
House will be speeches by
Martin Luther King, Dr.
Benjamin Spock, Norman
Thomas, and Students for a
Democratic Society Pres-
ident, Carl Oglesby.

The march is aimed at
seeking a cease-fire and ne-
gotiated .settlement in Viet-
nam through a halt in the
bombing of North Vietnam,
de-escalation of the war, a
U. S. willingness to negoti-
ate with the "Vietcong"
(NLF), and American sup-
port for the 1954 Geneva Ac-
cords, including **the even-
tual withdrawal of all
foreign military forces, a
prohibition against military
alliances, the peaceful re-
unification of Vietnam, and
self-determination by the
Vietnamese people.

Professor Dan Bennett's statement in the last
letter 1 withdrew is correct.

^ The first three paragraphs of the letter contain, in substance, opini(»ns _ com-
plaints about bennett — that were expressed to me by various members of tlie Depart-
ment (not by the members new this year) unoflicially and in private. I came to feel that
I had no right to make the.se opinions public. The time for these scruples of mine i^

now past. But I want to empha- , -^ ^ n^ i^

to the lectures like the guy who
ran it the year before. When I
got there once at eigJit o'clock,
time for the lecture, the room
was empty. It didn't look good.
We had to go around and pull
people out of their seats in the
library. And he didn't even
show up at all — a direct slap
at the lecturer.

These seem to be the sorts of
considerations for which, so far
as I can gather, Dan Bennett
was dismissed. I fmd them
largely irrelevant and certain-
ly inadequate. I say ".so far as
1 can gather" because I was not
done the courtesy of being told
that a decision on Bennett was
al)out to be made, even t'hougli
1 have been a member of the
Department longer than any
jire.senl m(>nihor except one and
have known Bennett a.s lojig a.s
anybody and in some way.^
more than anybody. Bennett
'rid no cliance at all to speak
to the .senior members, especi-
ally the new ones. o.n hi.s be-
half, and neither did I. After-
wards, when I asked liow llie
decision wa.s made, I received
no answer. The situation was
rortainly .somewhat unusual.
There are three new ftill pro-
fessors this year in the Depart-
ment, and though they pres^um-
ably had a part in the decision,
they can hardly be held really

size that I do not claim that
these complaints were the
grounds for the decision not to
renew Bennett's contract. I do
not know what the grounds for
the decision were. I have asked
and I have not been told. But
I may also add that the opin-
ions expressed in the first three
paragraphs of the letter are
the only sorts of complaints
that I have ever heard about
Bennett.

The second point that
weighed heavily with me was
that I had not spoken to mem- .,

bers of the Department, ex- ^^^;
cept the Chairman, about Ben-
nett's dismissal before making
a final decision to print the
letter. I have now spoken to
some, and I want to make this
perfectly clear. I am fully
convinced that the members of
the Department that are new
this year not only believed tliat
they made a rea.sonable deci-
sion, but also that their deci-
sions were perhaps rea.sonable
given the evidence that was
put before them and their lit-
tle knowledge of Bennett and
his work with students in the
past two years. But I am as
fully convinced that the deci-
sion was mistaken and unjust.
And I have doubts about the
evidence that was put before

we know well and respect and
who have taken many courses
with Bennett in the last two
years. Were they asked?

The letter to the Justice fol-
lows.

Dan Bennett goes around in
an open shirt and overalls. And
revolutionary boots. Why, the
other day the guy w..s hardoot

student. And that look about
him; intense, moody, hair fly-

sounding stufT about a guy

Chairman mistakenly believe,
as appears from the last issue
of the Justice, that Bennett is
37 years old — po.ssibly too old
to be given a second three year
contract without the probabil-
ity of tenure at the end of that
contract or possibly as not hav-
ing produced enough written
work for a man of 37? Were
there any meaningful steps
taken to find out what Ben-
nett's teaching ability is? It is

were told in the last issue of
the Ju.stice, that "his teaching
competence was one es.sential

Bennett II

If the *fact sheet' on the Bennett case is correct, any
claim— such as the claim ma<le by Chairman of the Philoso-
phy Department, Fred Sommers— that the decision on Ben-
nett was based on his "total record," is incorrect-

If Bennett's publishing record was not complete when
broujrht before the newest members of the department,
then by any standards the decision was based on incom-
plete, and therefore misleadinjr, information.

It is claimed that Bennett's teaching competence was
an essential factor in the decision. If this is in fact the
case, how was his competence determined? Last year Ben-
nett presented one pro-seminar (a one-evening lecture)
for graduate students and fellow members of his depart-
ment. This was the only occasion that his colleagues had
to evaluate Bennett's teaching technique and adequacy of
presentation. This one instance constitutes an insufticient
basis for judging Bennett's teivching competence.

On the other hand, those who could have given such
an appraisal — Bennett's graduate and undergraduate stu-
4lents — were simply not consulted. Thus, the interests of
the student body, which might have been reflected through
their consultation, were ignored.

For all these reasons, in addition to the procedural
questions which are independently being raised, we ask
that the Department of Philosophy review its decision on
the Bennett case. A crucial element of this review would
be the inclusion of undergraduate and graduate appraisal
of Dr. Bennett's teaching ability.

This case illustrates a characteristic procetlural omis-
sion of all departmental appointment decisions. Students
are not given the opportunity to express their views on
teaching competence. The student interest has been ap-
parently ignored in the controversial decisions that have
deprive<l us of Vickers, Marcuse, Polonsky, de Leiris, Wal-
ter — all of whom have left during the past two years.
Without a voice, we axn not feel secure in assuming these
decisions took into consideration student opinions ger-
maine to the determination of teaching competence.

One way to improve the structure is to institutionalize
a student voice in determinations of teaching competence.
The Justice offers the following suggestion: When any
faculty meml^er is being considered for reappointment
(and/or tenure), one graduate student (where applicable)
and one undergraduate student should present to the vot-
ing department members a summary of student opinion
ibout the faculty member in question. The undergraduate
representative ought to be selected by a vote of all upper-
classmen majoring in the relevant field of concentration.
The graduate student would be selected by his associates.
Both representatives would present their summaries to
the committee and answer any questions. Granted, this
suggestion would not eliminate the possibility of abuse.
However, any abuse in this reforme<l structure would be-
come more public and, therefore, less defensible.

Bennett Petition

To the Senior Faculty of the Department of Philosophy:

"We the unckrgraduate members of the Philosophy Depart-
ment hereby protest the decision not to renew the contract of
Daniel Bennett. We feel this decision was (a) a mistake and
(b) unfairly determined.

(A) The decision was a mistake because Dr. Bennett has

1) an unusual intellectual ability and breadth of interest.

2) a unique relationship to students which is particularly
' suitable to the teaching of philosophy.

3) a rare commitment to ideals which makes him exem-
plary not merely as a philosopher but as a human being.

(B) The decision was unfairly determined because:

1) No notification was given to Dr. Bennett of the exact
date of the meeting which wiis held earlier than usual.

2) No sincere eflort was made to find out about Dr. Ben-
f nett's past writing (other than the article in the Journal
* of Philosophy), his present work, or his future plans.
' 3) No eflort was nude to inquire about Dr. Bennett's age

which is 34. not as Dr. Sommers supposed. 37.

4) No customary one-year terminating contract was
ofTered to Dr. Bennett. That so important a decision should be
both wrong and unfair we find extremely disheartening: not
only because of the immediate efTect of losing Dr. Bennett but
also because of the nature of our department which this decision
seems to reveal.

Letters to the Editor

Unattcncled Convocation

To the Editors:

On Thursday, November 4,
President Sachar addressed a
special student convocation
commemorating the completion
of the magnificent new Ger-
stenzang Science Quadrangle —
a major advance in the growth
of our rapidly maturing young
university.

That particular occasion
should have been of importance
to students for three reasons.

First of all, and most obvi-
ous, is that the completion of
this new building complex adds
inestimably to the educational
quality and to the prestige of
our school — a fact in which
we should have no small
amount of pride.

Secondly, the moment was
of historic import in a different
sense — for it was the first pub-
lic event to be held in the
brand new Spingold Theater
Arts Building.

And thirdly, it represented a
genuine attempt on the part of
the President to recognize the
students of this university in
their own right as a vital, truly
important segment of the Uni-
versity community, a recogni-
tion which students have been
actively demanding at many

levels.

It was embarrassing to sit
among the handful of students
who attended this event, which
rightfully should have been an
occasion for rejoicing among
members of this university
community. President Sachar's
address was thoughtful and
meaningful — and it was writ-
ten solely for the students.
Where were the students who
have been screaming for recog-
nition from the Administra-
tion'' In the library? In classes
(at 4:30 in the afternoon)? In
their rooms? .

There are times when it is
proper to stand up as members
of a comm.unity in afTirmation
of real accomplishment, and in
tribute to those without whom
that accomplishment would not
have been possible.

in juU agreement with tlie main
point in Mr. Weinberg's letter,
that the lack oj strident interest
manifested in the poor turnout

tahle.)

A J H S Reconsidered

To the Editors:

I feel that the letter of last
week by Mr. Becker and Misses
Schultz and Yoselson concern-
ing the AJHS to be both in poor
taste and flagrantly incorrect.
The moving of the American
Jewish Historical Society to the
Biandeis campus will be an aid
to scholarship — bringing it
near to the many Judaic schol-
ars both on campus and in the
area — but will not change the
nature of Brandeis University.
Princeton and many other
schools have Christian divinity
schools on their campuses, yet
this does not make the nature
of these schools sectarian.

As to the nature of Brandeis,
it is well known that the school
is supported by the American
Jewish Community. Harvard
was founded by the Congrega-
tionalist community of New
England, as did most schools
begin under a religious or eth-
nic affiliation which they still
retain — yet this does not make
them any more or less sectarian
than Brandeis. In regard to the
topics of conferences, I believe
that as long as a conference fur-
thers the accumulation and as-
similation of knowledge and
ideas that it is important to a
university. Thus, if Brandeis
has them, this is all to its credit,
as is the NEJS department. A
university is the place for ideas,
and the idea that a conference,
i.e., a gathering of scholars, or
an historical society is wrong
there seems to border on big-
otry. Also, I seem to remember
that the Newman Clubs of New
England have had conventions
on campuses the past few years.
The very minor dietary "regu-
lations" are so .«;mall that many
students never notice them.

True there are problems —
in that perhaps there are not
enou/:;h non-Jewish students on
campus, and that many stu-
dents, perhaps the writers of
this letter, may have a rather
immature view toward Judaism
and religion in general — but,
what is needed is constructive
action and criticism and not
poorly written letters that only
embitter people and emotions.

Triparlilc Gov't.

Editor, The Justice:

^st week's Justice article on

the Student Affairs Committee,
entitled "Tripartite Committee
Reviews Complaints," brings
to mind the much fanfared ef-
forts, last year, for the estab-
lishment of Tripartite Univer-
sity Government.

At that time, the term, "Tri-
partite," was taken to mean not
the privileges of consultation
and petition now granted, but
a fundamental change in the
decision-making apparatus of
the university. It was founded
upon the assumption that au-
thority in the university should
be the joint and equal respon-
sibility of its three constituent
elements, administration, fac-
ulty and students. If the con-
cept of democracy is relevant
in the Brandeis community, it
necessarily follows that the
student body which is directly
affected by decisions involving
the whole university should
have a share in their formula-
tion, approval or rejection.
Dean Morrissey pinpointed the
difference in his distinction be-
tween consultative and delib-
erative bodies, the SAC falling
definitely into the former cat-
egory.

Last year a student referen-
dum overwhelmingly approved
Tripartite as the most desirable
form of University government.
Since that time however, noth-
ing has been heard of it or of
any efforts towards that end.
Why? Have the principles on
which it is based changed or
has it been abandoned as sim-
ply too difficult or too vision-
ary? (Student participation in
school government does work
elsewhere, e.g. Antioch Col-
lege.)

The situation is basically the
same now as ever. We still
have a government of the stu-
dents, by the administration.
This fact is not changed be-
cause tiiat government has op-
erated smoothly of late. If liie
SAC is a student means of com-
munication with the adminis-
tration, let it communicate the
message that a change in basic
university government is need-
ed. Let the Student Council
exert efTorts to achieve tliat
forgotten goal, for when wc
lose sight of our long-range
goals and concern ourselves
only with the immediate and
the expedient, we stand on
weak foundations indeed.

Alinsky Lecture

Violence in a ''Oniet Place

))

— Phil Tankel

Ky AI.EX NA( HT

When Dr. Will lIerl)erK sUi)pe(l up to the podium to
ppcak, a luinil^er of i)tH)plo rK^ted his amusing resembla ice
in lu'iKhl, KJith, and beard to the late Miirlin Buber. J lis
lecture was basically a summary of Buber's concept of

dialogue and an attempt to show how Buber's thought had P^^^.*^^ p;;;;i bier however, "only if the community is organized: if all the hatred and frus.

jecled to analysis and possible

terms of science, "the oljjeciive
study of man converts man into
a thing." I-Thou becomes I-It
when the lover starts thinking
of how he can please his be-
loved, or in what capacity the
other can be used.

Knowing Another

Herberg went on to show
how Buber believed in the im-
possibility of one maji ever
knowing another. Men can only
s»peak to one another, iji dialo-
gue, in the opening up of one
to the other, and is a constant-
ly reasserted creative union.

God is defined as that with
Whom one can relate in dialo-
gue. Interestingly enough, this
cioes not really differentiate
Cod from man, for they are
both defined in terms of dialo-
gue H( rberg u.^ed an illus-
Iralion from Franz Kafka's
The Castle to clarify the pro-
blem involved. When K, the
«iuv(-yor, comes to the town,
he finds that no one has sent
for him. He decides to f-ettlc
there, but is informed that first
hc> must receive permit •< ion
from the authorities in the
castle. Wh( n he asks to call tiie
castle, the mayor tells him that
one cannot c;ill the castle un-
less one is alr(\"Kly a setth d in-
haliitant of the town.

Lik< wise, in Buber, one
cannot enter into dialogue
(enter into an I-Thou relation-
ship) with God unless one can
do likewise with man. But one
cannot enter into dialogue with
man unless one can enter into
chalogue with God (who is, in
n sense, the eternal Thou). This
is in contradistinction to Kier-
kegaard's conception of the
•'hap of faith." For the Danish
philosopher, men stood in the
way of communion with God.
For Buber, communion with
man is a prerequisite to com-
munion with God, and vicc-
versa .
, Sources of Philosophy

One basic source of this out-
look is the Bible, for there
man is picture<l as being in a
constant dialogue with God.
Eastt rn philosophers coidd not
understand the Bible except as
a collection of stories, hardly
worthy of tlie religious position
attributed to it.

Another source of Buber's
philosophy lies in Hasidism.
Herberg distinguished two
strands of Hasidism. In the
first, the individual (as in most
mystical overtures) seeks to
raise himself to the level of
Go<l and to be absorbed within
God, thus effacing any indivi-
duality on his part. In the sec-
ond tradition V>oth the indivi-
dual and God remain separate
and chstinct but manage to re

chaining, a world view, or out-
look on reality which both de-
fines a situation and transcends
it.

the Wood Lawn area of Chi-

lating to violence in the com-

maiized, jn an oblique way, loy
quoting from Mr. Alinsky's
soon-to-be-published second
book, Rules for Revolution:
"Change means movement
movement means friction, fric-
tion means heat, and heat
means conflict." This conllict,
according to Mr. Alinsky, is the
only democratic means of cor-
recting the incxjuities of our
modern industrial society. He
detests "consensus," as exem-
plified in the government's
War on Poverty. He character-
ized the Office of Economic Op-
portunity as a "boa constric-
tor" which stifles independent
action on the part of the com-
munity.

Two Kinds of Violence

In the second area, Mr.
Ahnsky spoke of two kn . of

SPEAC's second lecturer, Mr. I. B. Tabata, President of the **Unity Movement" of
anti-apartheid forces in S<juth Africa, delivered a curious presentation of a ghoulish
reality inadequately explained by an ideological myth. One was immediately drawn to

this man, trained as an academician and reared as an organizer, as one who had a sense violence: organized violence,
of, and a feeling for, humanity. such as in wars or revolutions;

")?roclamation 400" make it a
punishable crime for a native to
he abroad without identification
papers on his person. Miners
are legally forced to crawl
through miles of subterranean
tunnels no more than 44 inches
in height for less than half the
wages earned by blacks in
neighboring countries. There
are no old men in the native
(|uarters. Dust inhalation in the
mines or malnutrition kills
them ofT before they're forty-
five. This is the reality of the
South African situation today.
The strength of Mr. Tabata's
appeal lay not only in his abil-
ity to realistically portray the
barbarity which dominates
South African life, but in his
unembittered insistance that
one of the most foul aspects of

mines are dictated by the need States policy towards this ma-

Agreed, you're half right. Mr.
Tabata. "South Africa is able
to continue in this dehumaniz-
ing policy because of the com-
placence of the eco-govcrn men-
tal complex of Anglo-American
capitalism." But wiien you ask
me to assimie tlu^ primary re-
sponsibility by accej^ting my
eco-govcrnmenlal capitalistic
system as "the soinxe and the
cause of apartht id." you over-
strain the bonds of "sympa-
thetic unckMstanding" which we
have labored to create.

Mr. Tabata is touring the
United States raising money for
the Alexander Defense fund
and, necessarily, the heighten-
ing of audience involvement
throtigh guilt is a profitable
tool. However, as the major
freedom spokesmen outside of
South Africa, Mr. Tabata must
not fail to realize that his sim-
plistic analysis and disregard
for the psychological complexi-
ties of paranoidal prejudice are
Ixing judged by the men who
will decide U.S. policy towards
his embittered land.

The US. and Great Britain
must, admittedly, lead the
world in an economic embargo
and boycott to force liberaliza-
tion in South Africa, but this
step cannot be unadvisably
taken under the existing condi-
tions in South Africa. The afri-
caner must be oflered sofne

This second kind of violence
(which is the central topic of
the lecture seii(s) is nothing
more than retaliation for the
injustices and hypocri"-ies
wliicii mark most of the institu-
tions in America. This form of
"protest" can only be averted
when other forms of "prol< ^t"
are opi nod. This is one of Ihc
many functions of the (<>m-

students of his, aiid he of mine,
and we taught a course to-
getner last sprinj^. lie is i.. i'S-
putably one of the finest teach-
ers I have seen at Brandeis or
anywhere else. Bennett is able
to teach piiilosophy, a subject
that is often difficult, abstract,
and remote, on an immediate
level; he is able to make it
alive without having to talk
bull. He makes Plato's justice
live or die in Roxbury as well
as in the dialectic of the class-
room. Students flock to him
aiid they also learn from him.
He is sensitive to their intellec-
tual and emotional problems
and they develop with him.
(As for graduate students, he
has taught them also at Stan-
ford and Brown, and there are
graduate students here now
who came specifically to do a
Ph D the.sis with him). He is
one of the few teachers that I
have seen that combines intel-
lect and sensitivity with in-
ten-ic c'on<'ern and devotion to
his students. (I have beeti told
by his single known defender
in the senior ranks that ho even
has charisma). And if he gets
in (rouble, it is the trouble of
pe >ple who are troubled.

I)jM lii'Mi.rtl li.is p'.olished
only one paper. He could have
piil)lislied several papers. I
iiave no doubt that lie could
have published his Ph.D. thesis
as a book. It is no secret in the
l)r<'(ev-;inn that publication is
niil diniciilt; if one is set on
iniiilishing one can work up
qi'ite an impressive looking
curriculum v I t u e. Bennett's
single article is a contribution
to the subject, the philosophy
of i etion; it takes the suljject
wliere others have left it and
advances it a bit. It is read,
both here and in England, and
will be read for some time.
Bennett is to my mind unques-
tionably one of the finest and
most promising young philo.so-
pliers I have .seen. He U
bright, he is knowledgeable,
and has sound judgiuent. Above
all he is intense and serious
about the subject and has an
intellectual honesty that is
fierce and uncompromising.
The Philo.sophy Department
has some fine pfiilosophers in
its senior ranks, perhaps even
sotne great ones. 1 admire and
respect them. But I also be-
lieve that Bennett is fully
worthy of them, not in prt)duc-
tivity and achievement but in
talent and promise. And if
ever philosophy makes us un-
able to see people, we should

say so much the worse for phi-
losophy not for the people.

On the basis of his single
article Bennett was invited to
join the Department of Phi-
losophy at the University of
Chicago last spring. He was
tempted, but though the De-
partment here refused to
tnatch the offer, he decided to
turn down a sure thing and
take his chances with reap-
pointment at Brandeis. His
trouble is that he likes the
Brandeis students. I can't
blame him. Tbov nre bv far
the best part of the University.

1 expect tlul I wiil be told
that this letter is not respon-
sible. It's no good for the De-
partment. The idea of responsi-
bility that seems involved here
is that of a man being a good
hoy — doing the legwork as-
signed to him. accepting the
decisions of the senior mem-
bers without protest, making
no "trouble." trying to become
•'imt>ortant." with the prospect
of tenure being dangled before
his eyes if he waivers. Person-
ally I find the prospect of ten-
ure a corrupting influence. I
can only hope that it isn't as
corrupting after you have the
stupid thing as it is before
hand. So if my protest isn't
good for the EK'partment I
have to leave it at that. The

self conunittcMl not only to de-
stroying the seeds of racism,
but to politically uprooting the
causes of economic oppression
and inequality. This second
purpose is vague and indistinct-
ly articulated, but taken at his
own word, Mr. Tabata is imme-
diately demanding not only a
radical social re-education, but
a fundamental economic re-
structuring of South African
society. Faced with such a com-
plete repudiation of the social,
psychological, and economic
values which were three hun-
dred years in the making, it is
not unlikely that white South
Africa would willingly see that
"rivers of blood would flow up

pie. No institution is. And
Brandeis might well be the last
place where one can afford to
forget this.

Personally I feel that if Dan
Bennett is not good enough for
Brandeis I don't want to stay
around to watch the place de-
velop. It is possible that oth-
ers who have known him will
feel that his being dismissed is
a reflection on the institution
not on Bennett.

to the mouths of horses" — and
most of this blood would be
that of black men. Such "ulti-
mate solutions" are the logical
products of fundamentalist
thought patterns — both liberal
and conservative.

The intellectual skepticism of
this observer was stimulated
perhaps, by Mr. Tabata's asso-
ciation with Young Socialist
Alliance (of Allen Dulles inci-
dent fame). But how much
more ought our national stom-
ach be revolted by our own cor-
porate association with apar-
theid and its profits? Some-
thing must be done; our na-
tional conscience must be awak-
ened, but in the process, sim-
plistic interpretations, and their
sponsors, must be rejected in
the light of reality.

Violence

meaning of community con-
trols: indigenous leader:?hip,
independent action, taking hold
of "your own life and your own
future."

Mr. Alinsky characterized
the poverty program as a "zoo-
keeper" keeping the "animals"
of the slum in their cages. What

is needed, b/ Mr. Alinsky*t
standards, is independence ol
action in the slum, in order to
have the people regain their
sense of self-esteem.

I could try ♦o criticize Mr.
Alinsky's concepts, procedures,
etc. . . . (For instance, why
didn't New York or Chicago's
West Side erupt in a riot this
summer, when they partici-
pated in anti-poverty pro-
grams? Or how can this ap-
proach hope to attack an ad-
mittedly sltructural probletn?
In other words, doesn't the pro-
blem necessitate a national
organization rather than only
community- wide organiza-
tions? ) That, however, would
take us into the netherland of
meaningless abstraction from
which it was such a delight to
escape with Mr. Alinsky.

Relevance

I do think that there is a
definite relevance to hearing
such a man in the framework
of the university. Here, ideally,
we are seeking to learn how to
live our lives. In that search
we swing between academic
study and direct experience.
Throughout Mr Ahnicvs
speech I received the feeling
that this man was a revolution-
ary: he wants to see people
shaping their lives in a digni-
fied and human way. He is
daring, resourceful, and. as
much as he talks about com-
promises from a position of
strength, uncomproni. ..ig.
Most importantly, he is acting:.

Conimunily Action

To the Editors:

On Nov. 2 Saul Alinsky told
an elderly audience that he
spoke at universities primarily
to support his organization and
talk to college students. Unfor-
tunately, Brandeis students
were barred from this lecture.
Instead tickets were sold at the
door only to the outside com-
munity whose interest in com-
munity action rarely extends
beyond Hadassah cookie sales.
These tickets cost $1.80 — a far
better bargain than the Sacks
theater. However, there was a
brighter side — Alinsky (on
WBRS) was excellent and in
keeping with good taste our
university did not sell popcorn.

Now the Jewish people are
in a peculiar position. For the
first time in two thousand
years, they find tlu mstlves in
the conditions of existence
which are normal to any other
nationality. Zionist ideologies
had been useful in a dynamic
sense, defining peoplehood and

normality in terms of what had
yet to be done. Having achieved
a "normal" state of existence,
this people has as yet to define
itself in terms of that situation.
There is a two-way bind here.
The new definition must be in
terms of the lines of traditional
Jewish thought and religiosity,
and in terms of the western ap-
proach to life. Any new Jewish
philosophy must draw from
both osources and attempt to
achieve a synthesis.

It would be interesting to
examine Buber in the light of
this approach, and to see to
what extent he grappled with
tile problem of synthesis, and
to what extent he was success-

istic of Schonberg in transition.
They are formed of simple, yet
essential ideas. Not to be over-
looked is the element of lyri-
cism, portrayed sometimes (as
m the third piece) by a single
chord change. Friedmann gave
two intelligent readings of the
work. His considerable musi-
cianship was evident, but what
I perceived as marring his
total performance was the un-
clear articulation of several im-
portant passages. This was
probably attributable to pedal-
ing, and might have been over-
looked by Friedmann while
performing. His integrity in
presenting such a work in per-
formance is to be commended.

work is rather elaborate in
parts, so as to completely over-
power the clarinet. But as a
whole, it is a warmly satisfy-
ing piece, both for listener and
performer. The performers did
experience trouble in staying
together in a few places. They
were able to compensate for
this with beautiful playing
throughout much of the work.
Elise Feingold is a refined pi-
anist with much musical in-
telligence, who was able to
integrate her playing
quite well with that of the
clarinetist. Her fingers are
capable of producing a subtly
singing tone, which is called
for in much romantic chamber
music. Margery Sager per-
formed with feeling, though
somewhat subdued in some
places. She had few teclinical
problems, and approached the
Schumann with earnestness
and warmth.

Boofers Register Winning Season

By RIC USLANER

' The soccer pame against Lowell Tech Thursday was one for the record.

'( The l-O win brought Hrandeis its first winning season in a major siM)rt since 1060 and also set school marks at the goal,

Steve Jacobs, the Judges' goalie, recorded his fourth shutout of the season — the most ever at Brandeis. In winning four out of the last five
games on the schedule, the team outscored its opponents 12-4. Jacobs allowed only two goals in these contests. Don Klabin tended the goal in the
2-1 loss to MIT. — ■

The successful season
against opposition closer lo tlie
caliber of the Judges than had
been played in previous years
has sparked the optimistic Ath-
letic Department to schedule
such top teams as Norwich and
Bates on the 1966 schedule.
"We're going to make o u r -
selves known," Coach John

Hughes said after the victory.
The socccrmen had a final rec-
ord of 5-4 2.

In a victory celebration,
Jacobs popped open a bottle of
Champagne and cheer<'d, "Next
year undefeated!"

Asim Krdilek scored the
lone goal of the Lowell Tech
contests on a break-away shot
10 feet from the goal at 18:11
of the first period. Biola Sobo-
wale kept Tech's top scorer
from tallying any goals as he
excelled on defense. Cadman
Mills, according to Hughes was
the best all-around player dur-
ing the course of the season,
"lie sacrificed scoring oppor-
tunities to help other players,"
the coach said.

Dave Flei.schaker, the cap-
tain, is the only graduatuig
senior on the squad. "We've
got a big loss to replace in
Dave," Hughes said. "For a boy
who never played soccer be-
f(Me he came to Brandeis, he
really took over."

The team had a new assistant
coach this year, Hubert Vogel-
singer. He stressed fundamen-
tals and defense. Tlie Judges
only let the opposition score

Here is the final record of
the 1.965 Brandeis soccer
team. The 1965 squad fin-
ished with a record of 5-4-2,

ketball captain as yet —

Blanc will employ game-
captains.

23 goals during the course of
the season — and 13 of them
came in two games.

Erdilek, an horiorary Bran-
deis scholar witli a 3.9 grade
average, led the team with
eight goals and five assists. Also
outstanding this year were
Bruce Clarkin, Pete Barnett,
Jack Rovner, and Howie Beck-
man. Clarkin was a wing in
high school, but Hughes used
him on defen,se here in his
move to cut down on opposi-
tion scoring.

"The difYerenco this year was
that this team was more de-
termined and didn't get dis-
couraged," the coach said, al-
luding to the early season rec-

}

ord of 1-3-1. "It was a team
ellort ail the way," he added.
He rated Lowell Tech as
the strongest opposition that
the Judges have faced this sea-
son. He looked forward to
next season and said with a
smile, "We have a goalie now!"

The winning season was like
a dream come true for Hughes,
who had not had a victorious
team since he came to Bran-
deis. At the beginning of the
season, he predicted that the
team would have more wins
than losses, calling it the best
team he had seen at the school.

He remained optimistic even
after the losses to Colby and
American International Col-
lege by disastrous scores. He
cited the lack of a strong of-
fense as the key to these losses,
but kept stressing defense as
the means to a winning record.

Hughes also .^raised reserves
Jim Kraus, who scored the only
Brandeis goal in the MIT game;
Alf Njie, and Norm Savage.

Fleischaker, said "This year
we had a team in the real
sense of the word. There was a
will to win and a willingness
to sacraficc for something other
than individual glorification. I
guess it's one of those feelings
that's difficult to articulate, but
it was a tremendous experience
to play with, and an honor to
captain it. They were great."

The Oklahoma City senior
added, "The team as a whole is
grateful for the total and con-
scientious commitment of both
our coaches, Mr. Hughes and
Mr. Vogelsinger, which played
a large part in our success."

Happy as the team was, most
of its members felt let down
in student support during the
season. Jacobs felt it was "dis-
gusting that Lowell Tech had
more supporters here than

Asim Erdilek, top scorer on the soccer squad and honorary
Brandeis scholar, in action against Tufts.

Brandeis did." The game at-
tracted a much larger Bran-
deis audience when it was re-
played that night on WGBH-
TV, Boston's educational tele-
vision station, than it did live.
Statistics in the Lowell
Tech game show the story: the
visitors took 32 shots, the
Judges 21. Both sides lacked

punch ofl'ense — a factor which
plagued Brandeis in mid-sea-
son. Goalie Steve Jacol)s made
19 saves for Brandeis while the
Lowell Tech goaltender only
saved 13. The defense of both
teams showed excellent coord-
ination, but the spirit to
achieve a winning season
tightened up the Brandeis line.

The Real Issue

In our last two issues we have dealt i)rimarily with
the specific aspects of the •Bennett ('ase'. As Dr- Summers
ways, the matter is now l>etore a responsible academic
l,ody — wasn't it Ix'fore? And tor that reason, we will no
longer concern ourselves with the 'Bennett Case' per se.

We are all concerned with the cpiality of education we
are receiving, and (juality of e<lucation depends in large
pwirt on quality teaching. This is agreed to by all in-
volve<l parties, i.e. laculty, administration and students.

What we can not abide by is the fact that although
we are a concerned and informed party, we have been in-
variably ignored whenever decisions about faculty reap-
l>jintments are made. We consider this ''ignorance" to be
not in the best interests of the university.

Kxceilent teachers are n(>ticed first by the students.
And we think that often they are notice<l by no one else.
This is surely a lamentable situation, but a situation which
can be improved. That is why the Justice has suggested a
way to make sure that excellent teachers are noticed,
l>articularly when they are up for reapiK)intment. We pro-
l)ose that an undergraduate and a graduate student,
elect hI by their fellow students in the relevant field
of concentration, present a summary of stmlent opinion
about the faculty meml^er up for reapix>intment to
the 'voting' members of their department. Written critiques
by all concent rat<»rs might also be made available to the
dei>artment, but we feel the need for a student representa-
tive, so that we may at least have s^jme assurances that we
are being heard.

We suggest that over this })rief vacation ten seconds
of serious though be devoted to this issue. For we have
heard that the Faculty Senate itself is considering whether
student opinion alxuit teaching comiK^tence should be a
factor in reappointment decisions. Within two weeks, a
student iK'titinn will be iK)ste(l to gain supixu't for one of
a number of proix)sals, all designed to formally involve
jitutlents in faculty reapix)intment decisions-

test has been virtually ignored. (CoDtiaued on pace %)

Dear Dr. Sommers:

I have received a very nega-
tive impression of you and the
tenured members of the Philos-
ophy Department by reading
the Justice, the facts from the
"Committee on Bennett's Dis-
missal," and in conversations
with other students.

The impression that I get is
that you and the other tenured
members of the Department
are cold, insecure, and de-
fensive.

I have this impression be-
cause I cannot understand why
you did not communicate with
Bennett prior to his evaluation.
It would seem to me that if you
were warm, caring, and open
individuals you would want
him to know and share in the
important decision you were
about to make. His informa-
tion about himself, more than
any other, was crucial to an
evaluation.

Your failure to do this leads
me to believe that you were
not sincere in evaluating Dr.
Bennett's qualifications. Your
closed and secret meeting
would lead me to believe that
you lacked confidence in your
own ability to evaluate him.
Your failure to communicate
the reasons for his dismissal
leads me to believe that you do
not trust the capacity of others
to accept genuine, even though
negative, evaluations.

Since this breakdown in com-
munication and the lack of co-
operation and trust is indica-
tive of a larger societal prob-
lem, I would appreciate any
different interpretation of
these events which would be
more positive.
Sincerely vours,

Richard L. Vittitow

There is nothing resembling

the film, lost because Fellini
himself apparently could not

claims, the facts of the case as
understood by the tenured
members of the Philosophy De-
partment were incorrect.

Bennett considers a reversal
of the department's decision
very doubtful. He is bringing
hi.s challenge before the Fac-
ulty Senate in hopes that they
will officially recognize his loss
of procedural rights and refer
his case to the Philosophy Dept.
for reconsideration. He then in-

correct facts, but also other evi-

them. At what cost this is done
you well know. The college,
with its protected atmosphere
of permitted deviation along
with all its conformity and fis-
cal fears, is a key institution of
the society for pioneering the
new roles that the larger so-
ciety may one day adopt. It is
an experimental hot house
whose artificial climate can per-
mit fruitful and socially func-
tional innovation to emerge.
The doings of the crazy college
kids may one day become the
norms of a sane society. . . .

Dissent, to be more than the
attraction of attention and the
exercise of the glands, requires
hard responsible work. An im-
portant part of this work is at-
taining an informed under-
standing of the existing system
and how it has come to be, cou-

pled with a just appreciation
of its merits as well as its de-
merits. Only such an under-
standing can provide assurance
that the dissenter is not be-
mused with some superfically
attractive nostrum nor trapped
into the bondage of mere reac-

Price of Withdrawal

The norm of responsible be-
havior may seem in fact to be
counsel to indefinitely postpone
action in the murky tog of a
complex world in which one
may never be able to plot an
assured course. Clearly it would
be a travesty of responsibility
if accepting it led to an escap-
ist quietism. As James pointed
out, no decision is itself a deci-
sion. To abstain is to let others
less scrupulous and more dubi-
ously motivated take over un-
checked and unopposed. The

price of this withdrawal is
etched in the history of Ger-
many, France, our own South
and, far more than we care to
admit, across the nation.

Responsibility is an attitude
and a habit of mind. It can be
learned, like command, only
through its exercise. It does not
protect its possessor from dan-
ger, for indeed it may dictate
the incurring danger. What it
does protect in so far as pro-
tection is humanly possible is
the society in which it is widely
practiced.

Still, responsibility is not the
whole story. In fact, a concen-
tration on that virtue to the ex-
clusion of others may hamper
the quest for new though seem-
ingly dangerous roads by which
society may advance. It is im-
portant that there be those who
feel keenly the avoidable suf-
fering of the world and express
vividly their concern. Such ex-
pression ought not to await the
discovery of workable remedies
for the evils perceived.

It is not always those who
are most sensitive who are
best equipped to cope with the
causes of the pain that moves
them. Nor are those best able
to solve problems always most
sensitive to the problems that
most urgently need solving.
There are many natures and
many talents that can play use-
ful roles in the search for bet-
ter ways to lessen avoidable suf-
fering and to harmonize men's
desires and actions. Responsi-
bility, while a virtue of indi-
viduals, is also a virtue of the
organized interaction of a col-
lege and a community. The in-
terplay of individuals and the
resulting norms may accu.stom
dissenters to a minimal obliga-
tion of seriousness, to an ex-
pectation that reasons must be
furnished, the point made clear
and the argument kept to the
point.

Yet when all is said concern-
ing individual responsibility
and organizational responsibil-
ity it must be recognized that
the highest responsibility of so-
ciety is for the maintenance o£
the freest and most fecund
search process for the means of
its own adaptation and devel-
opment consistent with holding
its current level functioning. . . .

But to be a home of heretics
and rebels without degenerat-
ing into a madhouse requires
more than mere toleration and
hospitality to dissent. It re-
quires that some, enough,
should appreciate the traditions
of society, the wisdom em-
bedded in experience of which
Aristotle, unlike Plato, was so
keenly aware, and the unend-
ing and precarious task of keep-
ing the going concern, society
as it is, on the rails. This same
need also to appreciate the role
of the heretics and the rebels
who in their visionary zeal
would destroy to create. Their
onesidedness is a condition of
their contribution, unavoidable
though dangerous. It is the task
of the responsible to maintain
the conditions in which vision-
aries may have visions from
which society may select paths
for its advance while discard-
ing those leading it astray. The
responsible, though sorely tried,
have to realize the peculiar re-
sponsibility of the visionary and
the zealot to their truths. Dan-
gerous and even disastrous if
allowed to prevail as their
sponsors would have them,
these truths in a balanced so-
ciety become the ferment of
progress. Even the blind and
unintended variations produced
by folly or whim through the
editing and selective retention
of society, become a moving
beneficial force in development.
It is humbling to realize how
much depends on the happy ac-
cident, the outcome of the
merest trial and error. Given
the importance of discovery the
numl>er of trials by itself has a
value.

The emphasis on dissent and
its importance for social ad-
vance should not obscure the
critical importance of main-
taining advances already won.
The existing state of society we
take as a iree gift of nature.
Plato and Aristotle, who had
witnessed a gloomy cycle of
civil strife and decay, could
entertain no such easy opti-
mism. They knew with tragic
awareness the fragility of civ-
ilization. We have inherited a

or since?" (or words to this
effect). For it was in fact the
case that not a single one of the
students has approached me ia
any effort to arrive at a bal-
anced judgment. So it was not
only Professor Bennett who
was avoiding a personal en-
counter; all the senior philoso-
phy majors were doing so. At
the meeting in question these
students assured me that there
was nothing personal in this. I
am convinced this is true. What
astonishes me is the impersonal
and abstract way in which these
students then continued to com-
plain about being impersonally
treated. Indeed the whole blaz-
ing display of emotion inside
and outside the Justice has been
altogether impersonal The em-
phasis has been on Fair Play,
Lack of Communication be-
tween Teachers and Senior
Faculty, the fight against Im-
personal Institutionalized Pro-
cedures, against Corporate Loy-
alties, and the (inhun.an) Sys-
tem. The concentrated indigna-
tion of students against imper-
sonalism was itself so imper-
sonal and abstract that only
Issues counted. It seemed to
these students that writing me
or coming to see me was point-
less and this despite the fact I
was obviously one of the prin-
ciples in an affair about which
they professed so great a de-
gree of human concern.

There may still be hope of
"communicating" with some of
the less self-righteous students.
For them I pose some condi-
tions. Leave the slogans and
ideologies at home for awhile.
Stop talking abstract ethics. In
other words, come off it. Try
some fair play in lower case.
And finally, do not insist on
what cannot be given. The rule
enjoining secrecy on a appoint-
ing committee is mainly for the
protection and dignity of the
candidate. There can be no ex-
ception to this rule. Enough said
about all this in newspapers.

Comment

we approached him for infor-
mation. Because their were no
student committees formed to
applaud Bennett's dismissal,
because the Philosophy De-
partment has not issued "fact
sheets," and l>ecaUvSe we have
given the letters of Dr. Som-
mers and Dr. Santas equal em-
phasis, sliould we be criticized
for reporting what went on
during the last three weeks?
Surely, our right to take an
editorial stand is not being
questioned.

So much for for refutation;
but, we have discussed what Dr.
most disappointing, is what Dr,
Sommers did not discuss. He
has addressed himself to
his concerns, above all, the
fact that he was not consulted
first by the twenty-two philoso-
phy majors who signed the
petition. But he never addresses
himself to the overriding stu-
dent concerns: that we have
lost a teacher and an individ-
ual whom we value highly, and
our views bearing on the deci-
sion (as in all similar deci-
sions) were ignored. Perhaps,
he is unable to address himself
to our concerns. If so, his letter
is an iUustration. in its imposed
hierarchy of concern and its
necessary degree of unrespon-
siveness, of what we are pro-
testing.

perous, we can, like ill-taught
children, take it for granted,
tail to understand the social
capital of the ages that has been
built into it, neglect its main-
tenance and allow the very
conditions of progress to waste
away. Responsible dissent must
take its departure from a just
appreciation of its inheritance.

Covich is squeezing his vari-

them at last when standards

On the Judges' Bench

Hoop-La

L

Pete Weiner

The court Judges face a long hard 20-game season. This
is definitely a rebuilding year with no seniors and only three
juniors on the squad. Coach Hubie LeBlanc will have more
than his share of problems.

Perhaps the most pressing problem is lack of experience.
Perhaps three freshmen will be starting according to LeBlanc.
He cited the preseason work of freshmen Steve Katzman and
Tom Haggerty and sophomore Jack Rovner.

♦'The freshmen have plenty of potential. If the whole team
gives 100% all the time, an almost .500 season is not out of the
question," LeBlanc said. "If the squad could give, say 110%,
we might have a winning record," he added.

LeBlanc realizes his situation and will play each game
one at a time. He has been away from college ball for eight
years and hasn't had time to judge other college talent as yet

The team will be playing a man-to-man defense on the court
"with secondary responsibilities," trying to force the outside
shot. LeBlanc intends to stress the fast break because the team
lacks the height necessary for a consistent, deliberate offense.

LeBlanc faces a tough task. He has to work with players
with little experience, unproved ability, potential talent and a

lack of height. , , * mu t^^^

Yet there is a noticeable change from last year The team
has spirit. They feel they can win — and that may be half the
battle. But from this corner it looks like a real tough year —
perhaps a notch or two better than last year.

Faculty Senate Denies
Complaints By Bennett

The Faculty Senate last week upheld the procedure of the philosophy department
to dismiss Dr. Daniel Bennett. They denied his complaints that the Department's
decision was unfair- The Senate also created a committee to investigate student par-
ticipation in decisions on facul

KC Jones to Give
Celts Another Year

K.C. Jones will play another year with the Boston
Celtics before joining the Brandeis athletic staff as basket-
ball coach.

The announcement was made yesterday by Celtica
Coach Red Auerbach after receiving the concurrence of
University President Abram Sachar and Athletic Director
Irving Olin.

Dr. Sachar stated. "If K.C.
feels that he ran still perform
we would not stand in his way
or prevent him from reaching
his ultimate as a player, nor
would we deprive the basket-
ball public of the opportunity
of seeing such a great athlete
perform."

Jones' contract has been put
over for one year and he will
sign a contract for the 1967-68
season with Brandeis in the
near future.

Olin commented: "If Auer-
bach thinks K.C. is good enough
to play another year, we think
enough of him to wait another
year."

"The professional athlete
makes his money through the

use of his body," Olin said,
"and if K.C. has another year
left to play in the N.B.A., he
should make use of it."

The Celtic backcourt star
got oflf to a slow start this sea-
son but has picked up to last
year's pace.

"I wanted to be fair to Bran-
deis. I waited till everything
was straightened out before
making the final decision,"
Jones said.

LeBlanc, in his first season,
stated that there would be no
basic change in his plans for
the hoopsters. "K.C. and I both
agree on our basic ofTense and
defense. I still hope that he
will continue to cotne out to
the practices and games," Le-
Blanc said.

ty appointments and dismissals.

Following the suggestion of
Dr. Ramsay MacMullen, chair-
man of the Senate, Dr. Bennett
narrowed his complaint to: 1)
the procedure leading to his
dismissal was improper be-
cause the tenured members of
the philosophy department did
not know his correct age, 2)
they did not know about a re-
cently completed publication,
3) the Dean of Faculty, who is
supposed to make an independ-
ent appraisal of such cases,
was present at the departmen-
tal decision.

Dr. Barnett, said that, as far
as he knows, the investigation
consisted of Dr. MacMullen's
questioning chairman of the
Philosophy Department D r .
Fred Sommers. According to
Dr. Bennett, the Senate decided
that, age was not a relevant
factor in the decision; Dr. Som-
mers la»t year officially told
Dr. Bennett to keep him in-
formed of all his marks and
progress; and the presence of
the dean at the departmental
meeting conforms with stand-
ard practices.

Dr. Bennett said he will re-
submit his complaints to the
Senate, because its investiga-
tion was inadequate since only
Dr. Sommers was questioned.
Dr. Bennett has circumstantial
evidence that age was a rele-
vant factor in the minds of
some of the people who decided
upon his dismissal. He also said
there is no written record of
standing orders on philosophy
publications, and he can re-
member no verbal orders. He

is a violation of the principle of
separation of the functions of
faculty and administration,
thus undercutting any possi-
bility of appeal or review of
decisions.

The Committee for an Ideal
Campus is circulating a peti-
tion handled entirely by stu-
dents. In part the petition
reads: "We . . . recommend . . .
The Chairman of the Depart-
ment shall be required to con-
sult with all members of his
his department, including
the graduate students and un-
dergraduate majors in a group
or with their elected repre-
sentatives, before making the
final decision in all matters
of appointment, reappointment,
tenure, promotion, granting of
awards, curriculum changes,
and major requirements In ad-
dition, as a sign of good faith,
we demand that this procedure
be made retroactive to apply to
the Bennett case."

Security Warns Girls
Against Hitchhiking

Dorm meetings concerning hitchhiking were called
during the week of November 29- These meetings were
prompted by an anonymous letter sent to the Brandeis
security office concerning the alleged rape of a female
Brandeis student and by a letter from John T. Driscofl,
Chairman of the Massachusetts Turnpike Authority.
Students were told the follow

ing: Women students should
not walk ofT-campus alone after
dark. Students should accept
no rides from strangers or en-
ter cars which do not have
Brandeis stickers on their win-
dows Any attempted attack
should be reported to the Dean
of Students' Office.

Students were also told that
the State Police of the Massa-
chusetts Turnpike strictly en-
force the regulation against
hitchhiking, which has a max-
imum penalty of $50. Hitch-
hikers themselves are endan-
gered by hitching, and the un-
scheduled stopping of cars
handling hitchhikers often
leads to rear-end collisions in-
volving many cars.

NOTICE

Any member of the class
of '67 or '68 in good stand-
ing who wishes to live

parents.

outcome of the case. The deci-
sion held that the petitioners
could not have such interest un-
less they were members of the
committee. The three had not
attended two consecutive meet-
ings of the club, as the M2IVI
constitution specifies as prere-
quisite to membership.

SBR also ruled that simply
as members of the Brandeis
Student Union, the three did
not have a direct interest in the
club. The ruling said tliat the
petitioners proper remedy is to
the Student Council.

In the petition, it was claimed
that the committee's proced-
ures at its meeting, November
10, were improper according to
Robert's Rules of Order. The
petition also claimed that M2M
violated the Student Union con-
stitution and Student Organiza-
tion Rules because it was an
"exclusive" organization and
had an improperly drawn con-
stitution.

Going Our Way

To Ihe Editors:

The liicully Senate has established a committee "to
consider the relation of studf^nts" to matters of faculty
reappointment and promotion to tenure. The first task of
this committee is to obtain all relevant information, and
to this end it welcomes oral or written contributions, in-
cluding expressions of opinion, from students, faculty
inembers, and other interested persons.

This committee consists of myself (chairman), Pro-
fessors Robert Hartman, Everett Hughes, Marvin Meyers,
and Silvan Schweber. Professor Richard Jones is an ex

olHcio member.

Peter Swiggart,

Associate Professor ©f English

Editorial Comment

The formation of this committee is the moet im-
p()rtant result of the dispute involving Dr. Bennett. The
tituilent bo<ly now has a responsibility to respond to the
sincere desire of the faculty to determine the students'
specific role in reappointment and tenure decisions.

We should now present our opinions — acting as in-
dividuals, small groups, or organizations— to faculty mem-
bers listed in the letter. To give the committee adt^quate
time to consider our proposals, we must submit them be-
fore "Winter Recess" (Christmas Vacation to the

cognoscenti).

Last Tuesday, speaking alx)ut the student role in
faculty evaluation to a group of student leaders, President
Sachar said, "As a matter of principle, 1 have no objec-
tions at all ... I want to be very, very sure that judg-
ments rendered by students are mature. I would be on
their side in bringing to the faculty the hope that we
could t^ike leadership in such a development. 1 h,'ive con-
fidence in the students' reaction to their instruction."
This <k>es not represent a blanket approval of all con-
ceiv4ible ways in which the present decision-making pro-
cedures can be modifie<l ; however, it should definitely be
considered an impetus for responsible student action.

The C. I. C. is now distributing a petition suggesting
specific procedural changes and the possible retroactive
application of these changes to the "Bennett Case". The
Justice has presented a somewhat different proposal in
two previous issues. We urge the student bo<ly to think
about the alternatives and then act by expressing your
agreement with one or the other or by formulating your
owji suggestions.

Complaints Dept.

One of Student Council's most important tasks is the
airing of student grievances in matters affecting living
conditions Last April when the Student Affairs Commit-
tee was establishe«l, the Tripartite Committee asked that
the student committee actively solicit student opinion.

It was hoj>ed that the committee would be repre-
sentative of the student botly, but although they are weil-
intentioned, three of the five members live off campus. A

recent meeting was held which was oj)en to students, but
because of the poor publicity only one student not con-
nected with Council or The Justice was present.

Unless the Committee actively solicits student
opinion, it will be little more effective than Council in
making reforms in the area of housing policy, off-campus
housing, parking, security and curfew rules, reforms de-
sired by the students. We urge Chairman Frank Bloch and
the other committee members U) make a more determined
effort. Dorm meeting shouhl take plaec at which Student

The Faciilly Senate

Dear Sir:

Because of Professor Ben-
nett's case lately, students have
become interested in the griev-
ance machinery that exists in
the university. It might be use-
ful if 1 explained, cjuite unoffi-
cially, how it works.

Briefly: there is a Faculty
Handbook, which describes how
faculty members shall be evalu-
ated, appointed, re-appointed,
or promoted. These rules the
Faculty has made, and recently
revised, and may revise again;
and so long as a department
and its chairman obey these
rules, the only disagreement
that may arise is with the ad-
ministration. Here, the Presi-
dent has full authority, but
there are procedures to insure
that if he should veto a depart-
ment's decision, it can be only
after a full and careful compar-
ison of both sides to the dis-
agreement.

In the other direction, some-
one may feel that his depart-
ment has not followed all
proper procedures in his own
regard. He should take his case
to his chairman, and if still un-
satisfied, may then lodge a com-
plaint with the faculty S( nato.
That body has neither the a\i-
thority nor the competence to

assess a man professionally, but
it can determine if faculty rules
have been followed. If so, then
the Senate rejects the case; if in
doubt, it investigates. It cannot
force its decisions on anybody,
but its influence has proved ef-
fective in the past.

There is a strong consensus
in the faculty that (under the
President) hiring and firing
should remain a department's
afTair. controlled, however, by
whatever rules of fair play the
faculty devises, and by careful
weighing of all factors. One of
the latter, obviously, is teach-
ing ability. Here it is important
to know student opinion, and
student and faculty committees
are now at work to establish
ways of making this opinion ac-
cessible in some systematic and
soberly considered form.

For the problems that crop
up in the university, most of
the corrective machinery of
government and communication
has existed ever some years. It
deserves to be used not too
often, but at least in preference
to irregular means. No one
willingly passes up a mass
meeting to ge to a committee
n>eeting; but committees, both
faculty and student, do get the
job done, in the fullness of
time, without generating un-
necessary heat or diverting our
pner».Mes from our day-to-day

work.

Editor:

Beginning on November 9, a
petition was circulated among
students requesting that they
complete an attached question-
naire which was intended as an
evaluation sheet on Dr. Daniel
Bennett of tiie Philosophy De-
partment. It was asked that
these evaluations be returned
either to the Committee for an
Ideal Campus or to me Since
the petition was not signer*, a
number of persons have taken
this to imply that I authored,
co-authored, or in some other
way helped to formulate the
statement and/or questions
which appeared in the petition.
No such inference would be
correct.

I disagree with the aims of er
claims in the petition. S»»cn
considerations are irrelevant to

this letter is the confusion over
my role in the conception and
writing of the petition. 1 hap-
pen to believe that Dr. Bennett

substance of the petition or on

The Spingold Opening

Volphoney

Or

By JON HOFFMAN

In 1606 the finishing touches were put to one of the
greatest works of drama ever to appear on the stage.
Written by the forennost literary figure of the time, the
comedy concerned a clever man who cherished a consum-
ing desire for wealth and a burning need to make fools of
those who provided him with it. Woven into a tightly uni-
fied structure were a bevy of superbly detailed characters
and a delightful subplot. The theme of underlying cor-
ruption runs through the play, and the destructive forces
oi evil are flayed mercilessly in the beautiful trial scene

that ends the comedy. . - : 7. T^r ^,

On the Judges' Bench

Bouncy, Bouncy •••

Pete Weiner

"We'll win our share of games," one of the Brandeis hoop-
Sters exclaimed after the tough 80-72 loss to Brown

The Judges will win their yhare this season, but it sure as
hell won't be the lion's share.

But then anything is an improvement over last year! And
this squad has the potential to succeed, with a little experience.

Against Brown the Brandeis five showed all the character-
istics of a young, inexperienced and nervous team The Judges
nubl)ed passes, missed multiple scoring opportunities, did not
work a set offense and didn't play teatn ball

Brown is certainly no Princeton or St. Joe's. But the
Bruins did have a classy guard in 5' 8" Al Fisfuiun from Brook-
lyn The junior piaymaker ran circles around the Brandeis de-
fense ( man-to-riiati ) and led all .scorers with 21.

But the Ivy visitors lacked height, deptli. accuracy and
oxperienc<' and almost handed the game to the Big Blue and
White. But our boys were uhnosl as deterniiiied to luiid it back.

Coach llubic LeI3lanc's starters were jutuors Barry Zitn-
merruan. Richie P'pst"in. Soph Jack Rovner and freshmen Steve
Kat/man and Tom llaggerty. The squad had trouhlt's right away
controlling the ball. Weak h.inds. l)ad passes and poor floor con-
trol put Brandeis in the hole fioin the start.

What hurt most was inex[)erience — Zimmerman and Rov-
ner were the only two with game experience. The Judges had
four freshmen in there at times with Mario Gil and Dave
Woriuan joining Ilaggerty. Kat/.man and Zimmerman

The Judges sutVered from first-game jitters. The poor
pa.s.ses, violations and missed plays can be attributed to this.

Yet the problem of lack of teamwork is more pressing. The
guards controlled the ball throughout the game and did not take
advantage of scoring plays by passing off. College competition is
a big step from high school basketball. And the Judges didn't
quite make it last Friday

Dribble, dribble, dribble — that hurt And the big men had
to come out to get the ball (thus losing the chance for vital re-
bounds), since nobody threw the ball towards the hoop.

Bright Spots

There were many bright spots for Brandeis Freshmen Tom
Haggerty and Steve Katzman played extremely well in their
first varsity game.

Haggerty, a 6' 9", 220-pounder from Watertown. played the
whole way and showed much potential He tired but kept on
plugging, finishing with 20 points and ten rebounds. The pres-
sure was really on the big boy but he came through in fine style.

Tom should be the key to the Brandeis offense in the future
With a big scoring threat up front, the Judges can work a varied
offense for a change But first he has to get the ball to score

Face MIT Tonite

Brown Beats Brandeis^ 80-72^
For Judges^ 22nd Straight Loss

By RIC [ISLANDER

The view on the Judges' bench this season is onward and upward.

The freshman and varsity capers take on MIT tonight in Cambridge in what
miy^ht be the (irst Hrandeis l)asketball victory in 2 contests. The five appeared stronger
than they were hist year despite their 80-72 loss to Brown Friday.

The squad sufTered from a

lack of coordination on de-
fense, inaliility to keef) their
hands on the ball, and lack of
the defense which is vital to
any hopes of winning some ball
games. However, the team did
show considerable promise on
offense and the hustling of the
squad was heartening.

Alan Fishman of Brown was
the game's' \\\ii,\\ scorer with 21
points. Tom Haggerty, a fast-
moving G-9 fre>:hman, was higli
for Brandeis with 20.

The game was close through-
out with Brown taking leads of
up to 8 points.

The- Judmc-s tifd the score
late in the fir.st half at 31-31,
but fell behind quickly to a
four point deficit at halftime.

With Brandeis down by 7
(61-54), a spurt led l)y Steve
Katzman's six straight points
brought the Judges to within
one with 7:58 left. But Greg
Donaldson and Steve Kadison
broke it open for the visitors.

The Brown five kept press-
ing the Judges and hindered
Coach Hubie LeBlanc's men.

Wrestling

^ ,r. . , r^ . . _. . 1/. i It look the Brandeis wres-

Katzman, a 5' 10" guard from Brooklyn, proved himself to ^jj^^g ^^^^^^ only 55 minutes to

be an excellent ballplayer. But he still has to learn to cope
with the transition to college ball. Steve is a real hustler and a
determined competitor. With a little more experience and a
little less shooting and dribbling, he should be the team floor
leader

Gil will develop into an excellent guard also with some
more experience. Zimmerman had to contend with a tight de-
fense the second half, but should regain his old touch Rovner
played a tough ball game as usual and went through the second
half with four fouls on him.

Yet Brandeis lost for the 22nd time in the last two years.
This cannot go on forever. Sooner or later, this Brandei.s five
IV ill reverse the trend. And it won't be a question of luck.

Judges Jottings

Big crowd at Brown contest encouraging next home

game next Saturday night against Trinity . . . Brown will have a
tough time of it this year judging from their performance last
Friday . . . The Bruins play Providence twice as well as their
heavy Ivy schedule . . . Judges will travel up to Bates Thurs-
day . . Brown's Fishman looked read good — plenty of finesse
on the court . . . Judges didn't take advantage of fast break
when they had opportunity.

KC Jones watched from the sidelines . . then rushed off to
the Garden ... As for the Baby Blue and White (the frosh hoop-
sters to the uniformed) — well it looks like another one of those
years . . . The Frosh travelled to Harvard last Wednesday to
face the Crimson — and. believe it or not, we lost — l)ut it was
only by 80 points this year . . . For those who are still inter-
ested, the final count was 110-30.

Berenson and Acker were nominated by current Ed-
itors-in-Chief. Jeff Cohen and Paul Solman. The nomina-
tion was approved by the editorial board in a closed bal-
lot by a vote of 7-.1. It was then approved by the staff,
12-5.

The Justice
Notes . . .

Late night study areas will
be made available to students
in time for final examinations,
according to Associate Dean of
Students Leonard Zion. The
areas involved are SchifTman,
Mailman, and Feldberg. They
will be kept open until 1 :30 a.m.
week nights and 2:30 a.m. week-
ends, from January 14 to 28.
The continuation of this policy
throughout the year was rec-
ommended by the Student Af-
fairs Committee as part of its
overall program of proposed
extended hours which is cur-
rently being reviewed by the
University Administrative
Committee.

The first all-electric chapel
carillon to be installed at any
American university was added
to Berlin Chapel last Friday.
The bell system, the invention
of University Glassblower Ger-
hardt Finkenbeiner, was first
officially used Sunday morning
to play an hour of music by
Irving Fine in connection with
a dedication being held in his
honor at Slosberg Music Hall.
The bells, operated by a piano-
like keyboard, will be sounded
on a regular basis.

Twenty-two Brandeis stu-
dents are working with approx-
imately fifty high school stu-
dents in the Waltham tutoring
project. They meet two or
three times a week after school
for about one and a half hours.

According to John Michael-
man, one of the project's or-
ganizers, the tutoring is just
one part of a larger project to
bring Waltham and Brandeis
into better communication.

More tutors and drivers are
needed, and should contact
John Michaelman, NC 107.
Money to pay for transporta-
tion is available from a $100
grant from the Student Coun-
cil.

According to the minutes of
the first meeting of the Consti-
tutional Revision Committee,
**It was generally agreed to sub-
stitute a new constitution for
the exi.sting one because of the
need for .so many completely
new provisions and many am-
biguities in the old constitu-
tion." The eight-member CRC
with co-chairmen Phil Saperia,
'68, and Elliot Evans, '66, is
consulting with Dean Zion and
the Faculty- Administrative
Committee.

The new constitution would
include many new items, in
particular, provisions concern-
ing charging admission prices
for SAF events to those who
have not paid the SAF, the
present SBR constitution, and
the present SSB constitution.

The revision of the constitu-
tion will be completed next
semester, and will lake effect
only after a referendum which
will be preceded by a meeting
of the Student Union to answer
questions concerning the con-
stitution.

EPC Plans Course Evaluation;
Students to Get Questionnaires

For the first time at Brandeis, students next year may have an opjwrtunity to
choo.se classes with the aid of a systematized course evaluation. Elliot Kvans, '66,
chairman of the Educational Policies Committee of Student Council (EPC) and editor
of the evaluation, identified its goal as "the elimination of rumors as a source of in-
formation" and its primary audience as the underclassman. A questionnaire will be dis-
tributed to students after intersession and will be divided into three basic sections: lec-
tures, readings and exams.

The assumption of respon-
"*sibilities comes as a great
sacrifice for both Berenson
and Acker. Berenson will have
to swear oflf his weekly rendez-
vous with the New York (foot-
ball) Giants next fall. Acker,
who will graduate in June, will
not be around to intimidate
next year's freshmen. A.s for
a sacrifice, he will have to fore-
go his hitherto bacchanalian
breakfasts.

EPC Urges Reform
In Bio Sci, Advising

Reform of the advising program has been recom-
mended by the Student-Faculty Educational Policies Com-
mittee- The g-roup transmitted a student rei>ort on Bio-
logical Science I to the Faculty EPC. It also endorsed the

student course evaluation. *

According to the joint-com-
mittee chairman. Associate

Professor of Music, Robert
Koff, the work of the commit-
tee "should be of great interest
for the students at Brandeis
. . . [who wantl to be informed
of the activities of the Faculty-
Student EPC subcommittee.
The weekly meetings have
been most useful and indicate
the great potential value this

subcommittee can have in im-
proving a student-faculty-ad-
ministration channel oi com-
munication in a manner which
has no precedent at Brandeis.

"Many topics have been pre-
sented and the first recommen-
dation on a revised advising
program has been presented to
the Faculty EPC for action. The
proposed student course evalu-
ation has been thoroughly dis-
cussed and numerous sugges-
tions for improvements made
by the subcommittee have been
incorporated in it. A student 1
report on one of the General '
Education courses was received
by the subcommittee and for-
warded with recommendations
to the Faculty EPC."

The acting Dean of Faculty,
Dr. Peter Diamandopoulos, has
given the committee authority
to di.scuss any matter of educa-
tional interest to the students,
to make recommendations to
appropriate faculty commit-
tees, and to consult students on
prospective decisions by the
faculty EPC.

The action of the joint com-
mittee climaxed several months
of work by the student com-
mittee. The student committee
recommended revision of the
advising program to enable stu-
dents to choose advisers at the
end of the freshman year and
keep them for three years. The
students proposed measures to
increase the number of student
advisers and lower the ratio of
advisers to students.

They called for a new fresh-
man advising program, which
would integrate teaching and
advising the proposals This
was referred to a faculty com-
mittee headed by Dr. Allen
Grossman.

The student EPC asked the
joint committee for suggestions
for the course evaluation and

The students also proposed
changes in Biological Science
I and submitted them to t h e
joint committee.

Other reforms, including a
tutoring system, which is a new
option for independent study in
the last two years, a mandatory
reading period, a longer inter-
session, and an aption for every
instructor to decline giving a
final examination have been
referred to the joifit committee.

Another will be given to the
faculty dealing with course ob-
jectives, topics discussed, and
criteria for grading. This ques-
tionnaire will hopefully result
in a paragraph on each course
included in the evaluation.

Plans call for covering only
General Education and large
lecture courses, which will
bring the total number of
courses included to fifty-one.
EPC will distribute question-
naires to those students now
taking the courses. In the
larger courses, a random selec-
tion of students will be made.

Present plans anticipate pro

Swiggart Will

Study Studc^iit
Tenure Role

A faculty committee headed
by Dr. Peter Swiggart, Associ-
ate Professor of English, is ro-
considering faculty tenure
rules. A questionnaire was .sent
to all department chairmen be-
fore the Christmas holidays.
The committee has not yet
heard from students. Dr. Swig-
gart promi.sod that student pro-
posals would be carefully con-
sidered.

A student subcommittee of
the Educational Policies Com-
mittee under Jonathan Malino,

ducing the first evaluation (that '66, planned a study of tenure

on first semester courses) prior
to pre-registration in April. A
second evaluation, encompass-
ing; courses for both terms, will
be distributed next September.
After the questionnaires are
compiled and the descriptions
are written, they will be given
to the professor involved so
that if he wishes, he may write
a short reply which will be in-
cluded in the final text.

Justice Prints After
Council Investigation

The Justice returned to pub- — ~ ~~

lication today after S t u d e n t ! not elected administrative ofTi
Council returned money it had

withheld. Council cut off Jus-
tice funds Dec. 8 because of al-
leged fiscal mismanagement and
violation of the Justice Consti-
tution. An agreement on fiscal
management was reached at a
Council meeting, attended by
members of the Justice editor-
ial lx>ard. At the same meeting
funds were returned for a two-
week grace period, to allow the
Justice to operate while consti-
tutional revisions were being
made.

Council also approved a plan
suggested by Marty Pernick,
'68, which will permit the Jus-
tice to be distributed free to all
students, including non-SAF
payers.

Allen Zerkin. 66, moved De-
cember 8 that Council withhold
all Justice funds pending an in-
vestigation of Justice methods
of enforcing distribution only
to those who had paid the SAF.
This was in line with the re-
cently stated Council policy of
withholding the funds of any
organization that does not en-
force the SAF.

In making his motion. Zerkin
charged that the Justice has
been distributed in the dining
halls with no effort made to
check SAF tabs. He further
stated that the Justic staff has
shown fiscal irresponsibility,
leaving the newspaper in seri-
ous debt.

A leading role in the attack
was taken by David Shuffman,
'69. Shuffman charged that the

Justice has been in violation of
incorporat^'d some of them into its constitution, on four counts,
the plan, according to Evans. They were 1) The Justice has

cers, 2) One department has
two representatives on the edi-
torial board, in violation of the
policy of having each depart-
ment represented by one mem-
ber, 3) The editorial board has
not met and voted on editorials
as it is required to do before
each issue (It wa.s later learned
that the editorial board is not
required to meet before publi-
cation of each issue) and 4)
Some letters to the editor have
not been printed.

Council voted to appoint a
committee to investigate the
charges, to consist of Shuffman,
Brian Marcus. '67. Chip Kopo-
low, '67, and Council President
Frank Bloch. The committee
met Dec. 9 with members of the
Justice staff.

At a Council meeting held
December 10. Jeff Cohen, co-
editor, presented the Justice
plan for enforcement of SAF.
The financial situation was also
discussed. Brian Marcus re-
ported that the Justice was al-
located $5,800 for the year.
Eight issues have lK?en pub-
lished, leaving $1,250. enough
for three more issues. The Jus-
tice is owed $1,975 in advertis-
ing bills. It owes its printer
$1,150. Cohen admitted the
Justice had been negligent in
collecting on outstanding bills.

Frank Bloch. speaking for
Council, stated that the debt
should be reduced by $500. to
$650. this year. The remaining
allocation of $1,250 could be
used by the Justice on a $225
per i.ssue basis, to be matched
with $225 in advertising rev-

procedures elsewhere, to de-
velop proposals for the faculty
committee. The second major
aim of the committee is to
channel student proposals to
the Swiggart committee. They
will study three existing pro-
posals: those of the Justice, the
Committee for an Ideal Campus
and the Committee on Ben-
nett's Dismissal, and one from
Jonathan Malino, '66 and Roger
Gottlieb, '68.

The Justice proposal includes
includes the establishment of a
committee consisting of one
graduate student and one un-
dergraduate student who would
send a summary of student
opinion to the department about
the faculty member.

In the proposals of CIC and
Malino and Gottlieb each of the
department majors and gradu-
ate students will be given a
standardized evaluation sheet
when a profes.sor is up for re-
appointment or tenure. These
evaluations will examine the
professor's teaching ability The
majors will elect a committee
of juniors, .seniors and graduate
students. This committee will
discuss the evaluations and
then meet with the junior and
senior members of the depart-
ment.

In addition, under this pro-
posal students will be encour-
aged to talk with the chairman
and other members of the de-
partment concerning the
teacher in question.

Dormant Council

student Council, in a convulsive burst of concern
over Rtu.lent views, waste.l its time am that of the stu-
dents conducting dorm polls on the r^^^^^^^.^^^lt
rersial issue of distr bution ol The Justice. While we ap-

;^ ;r\hrion. delayed attempt ^ l^^.^Z^J^^^^^^^
itieate with the student bmly, we feel that this was neiiner
the proper metho<l, iwr the proper i««iie.

When meetinjTs are held they should be on issues of im-
portance to the student body, irivin^ the st^idents a chance
^ suggest courses of action, not just to blindly vote yes
or no on predigested plans. These issues should be brought
to the stuilents living off, as well as on campus

It seems hard to believe that Council could holt! meet-
ings on Justice distribution and not on the imporUint en-
vironmental questions affecting the University. For ex-
ample if the students had been consulted beforehand, the
Student Affairs Committee, instead of wasting its time on
meaningless proix)sals, might now be discussing the over-
crowding of dorms and dining halls, taking the initiative
in trying to save the students from the specter of Dean
Morrissey's ^mmlest tripling," and handling the many
complaints concerning Security and Building and Grounds.

Letters to the Editor

Violnicc?

To the Editors:

As a student interested in
learning from sources other
than the formal classroom, I
looked forward to attending the
final lecture in the llelmsley
Series on violence. The lecture,
entitled "A Case Study of Vio-
lence," was given by Mr. J. Lee
Rankin, Chief Counsel for the
Warren Commission. I expected
to hear a stimulating talk on
violence and perhaps gain some
insight into its causes. Instead
I heard an hour and a half lec-
ture on civics which had only
the most tenuous relationship
to the subject in question. 1
was not presented with one
new or stimulating idea con-
cerning either violence or civ-
ics. In short the talk seemed to
be geared more to a high school
group than to a college/adult
one I am sure I was not alone
in feeling not only bored, but
also slightly embarrassed, by
Mr. Rankin's assumption of our
ignorance of the current state

of the nation.

Shntiif'fiil!

To the Editors:

Just before Christmas vaca-
tion (pardon me, Winter Re-
cess), 1, like the rest of the
Brandeis community, received
a little memo concerning the
progress of D Joan Kilbourne
'68, who was severely injured
in an automobile accident ear-
lier this year The memo asked
for contributions to help with
the expenses caused by surgery
and a lengthy program of phy-
sical therapy. It also mentioned
an art exhibition and sale in
Middlefield. Conn. — all pro-
ceeds to go to D. Joans medi-
cal fund. This seemed to me to
be an excellent idea — solicita-
tion of funds is always^ easier
when one "gets something for
one's money, ' so to speak The
art works were to be donated
by artists from Connecticut and
by Brandeis students and fac-
ulty. This showed, to me, well-
ploced concern and effort on
the part of th*- two communi-
ties D. Joan is a part of —
home and school.

When I drove up to the
C^iWctor's Galkry, with my

Chanukah gelt in my hot little
hand, I found a very fine col-
lection of drawings, sculpture,
etc., etc., from local artists, stu-
dents at Southern Connecticut
College, even a Chagall print
donated by the owner and NOT
A THING from Brandeis (par-
don me, one student had sent
some drawings — my apologies
and personal thanks to this
person). The gentleman in
charge of the gallery inforn^ed
me that he had written to the
University (presumably to the
Fine Art.s Department) and had
had no response.

I will not mince words. This
is shameful. If there is some
good, logical reason 'or no stu-
dent, no faculty member send-
ing anything. 1 certainly would
like to hear it.

I invite answers to this let-
ter from the appropriate p«'^r-
ties.

Wi$e Lecture

Kashmir: When Diplomacy Fails

Nadine Payn

Madame Vijaya Lakshmi Pandit was the guest speaker at the 1966 Stephen S.
ise Memorial Lecture on Wednesday evening, January 5th, in Schwartz Hall. Former

Brandeis students may find it hard to relaize that "The

Movement" is still around. We don't read about it any- W . t^ • , ^ *. ^u tt xt /-. i

in the mass media is indicative of its present activity and Assembly, Mme. Pandit spoke on "Storm Over Asia." The storm to which she referred
its }>otential for effective and significant social change- was the present conflict between India and Pakistan over Kashmir.

But what is the nature of the activity now? Who is doing " " *-

it and what does it tell us about'!*
the sohjtions people have tome

up with after six years of
struggle?

The Student Non-Violent Co-
ordinating Committee (SNCC)
has projects in almost every
Black Belt state: Arkansas, Mis-
sissippi, Alabama, and Georgia,
as well as pilot projects in
Washington. D. C, New York
City, and the Imperial Valley
of California. The experience
derived from past years of
struggle has resulted in new
projects, new in nature and
locality.

The majority of SNCC's
projects are still in the South.
In Mississippi, for example,
there are "regular" commu-
nity-wide projects in over
half the counties. In addi-
tion there are three separate
projects: the Mississippi Free-
dom Labor Union, the Poor
People's Corporation, and the
autonomous Mississippi Free-
dom Democratic Party.
The Freedom Labor Union is

nomic problem of the share-

courthouses of Alabama, and
in Harlem and Roxbury, com-
munity organizations which are
taking shape may .someday
combine their forces in a na-
tional organization.

The fact that both SNCC and
SCLC, in addition to SDS, have
come out firmly against the
war in Vietnam reflects their
attitudes towards causes of our
domestic problems. There must
be something radically wrong
in a social structure which fos-
ters Watts and Da Nang Air

organizations have broadened
their activities in response to
these failures in American so-
ciety.

But much of this is a long-

Conflict of Ideologies

The underlying thesis
IVIme. Pandit's speech was that
Kashmir is not the real cause
of India's dispute with Paki-
stan. "It is the manifestation of
a basic difference of approach
to nationhood," she declared.
"There is a conflict of ideolo-
gy. India is a secular State
devoted to freedom and parlia-
mentary institutions, whereas
Pakistan is a theocracy, and
a semi-military dictatorship
which discriminates against
minorities." In the same breath
Mme. Pandit asserted that
nevertheless, the two nations
had been associated for many
years and that without the
existence of Pakistan the sub-
continent of South Asia cannot
be a secure area. She asked the
support of her audience, i.e.

of America,

in ending this situa-
tion of conflict.

Early Seeds of Dissension

The original seeds of con-
flict between Hindu and Mus-
lim were implanted by the
British colonial policy of 'di-
vide and rule.' However, the
Indian National Congress was
rooted in a secular nationalism.
Mme. Pandit noted that mem-
bers of all religious communi-
ties in India were represented

country with the third largest
Muslim population, following
only Indonesia and Pakistan.

Mme. Pandit expressed the
Indian feeling that Pakistan
wants to change the imbalance
of population and industry
which exists between India and
Pakistan. But, she said, "India
cannot help being larger (than
Pakistan) anymore than China
can help being larger than
India." The Pakistanis have

The Freedom Democratic
Party was manned by SNCC
workers, but the organization
is now run by the people of
the state. The immediate con-
cern is preparing for the spring
senatorial primaries.

A new political party is now
being organized on a county-by-
county basis in Alabama. Since
power in the South resides in
the county courthouse, the im-
mediate goal is to gain entrance
to the courthouse. Since a num-
ber of Alabama counties have
a majority of Negroes, organ-
izing has been difficult and
dangerous. In addition, there
are over ten "regular" projects
in the state.

In Arkansas, there are two
projects, one in Gould, and the
other in Forest City. SNCC
projects in Georgia are in
Americus and Albany. All four
projects arc community-based
organizations, involved with
the problems of each particular
community.

The projects in the North
and California reflect what
has been learned from past
experiences. SNCC's move
into the North means it has
enlarged its conception of the
problem and feels able to at-
tack it on a national basis.
This seems to reflect a trend
among civil rights organiza-
tions. For example, M. L.
King has recently announced
an SCLC drive in Chicago.
The California project is at-
tempting to organize the mi-
grant farm workers. SNCC
is trying to bring about a co-
alition of the poor whites and
poor blacks, to create a coali-
t i o n of the "have-nots"
against the "haves."
The Washington, D. C. proj-
ect is organizing and fighting
for Home Rule. The majority
of the city is Negro, but the city
is run by a House committee
presently headed by a South
Carolinian.

In an effort to attain power,
the civil rights organizations
are turning to the ghettos of
the North, in addition to their
traditional site in the Southern

but equal schools. Other com-
plaints involved the ab.sence
of 1^1 delivery to the Negro
neighborhoods and the usual
short change on jobs and city
services.

In the most halting strides
possible, Jonesboro moves to-
ward school integration. The
first and second grades will be
integrated this fall, as the first
part of a program designed to
bring about complete desegre-

Jonesboro's major employer
is the Continental Can paper

in the small adjacent town of

600 Negro men, work there. The
imion is integrated, but that
did not prevent the mainte-
nance of separate wage scales
for white and black workers
until a few months ago. One
Jonesboro man told a visitor
that he was earning $2.83 an
hour as a mechanic with Con-
tinental Can, while his white
associates, doing the same work
for the same company, earned
$3.37 each hour. The tCMjijjany
did away with separate pay
scales a few months ago, to
comply with Title VII of the
1964 Civil Rights Act.

Ascertainment of the

wishes of the Kashmiris.
Mme. Pandit was quick to
point out to the audience the
words "withdrawal of Paki-
stani forces." For she said, it
was quite clear that the sover-
eignty of the State of Jammu
and Kashmir lay with India,
and was so stated by the Amer-
ican Representative of the Se-
curity Council. Therefore, she
argued, the Pakistanis make
constant reference to the prom-
ise of a plebiscite, but neglect
the second point in the resolu-
tion.

rather than as a result of, Mc-

harsh words about the Deacons,
and at one time threatened to

Another argument in defense
of this position is that in the
eighteen years since India's
partition a sense of security has
been established within the mi-
nority communities. A plebis-
cite at this time would bring
chaos and disruption to India
and Pakistan and indeed to the
entire world.

Mme. Pandit cited two acts
of aggression by Pakistan in
1965, the first in April, and the
second on August 5. This was
a major aggression in which
"thousands of troops," led by
regular officers of the Pakistani
army crossed over the cease-
fire line and "terrorized" the
area through sabotage and de-
struction for ten days. They had
counted on the support of the
local population of Kashmir

•re deeply concerned alxiut the
quality of the education they
are receiving. This concern is
no doubt genuine. Unfortunate-
ly, however, it does not seem
to extend to one of the Univer-
sity's most vital resources. We
are referring to the library and
to the criminally irreiponsi-
ble behavior demonstrated by
many students in the use of
its facilities. More specificaliy,
what disturbs us and what we
find so ap{)alling, are such
things as: library articles
clipped out of periodicals, chap-
ters torn from books, and, es-
pecially, the astonishing num-
ber of volumes which seem to
vanish from the library each
semester — either l>ecause of
outriglit theft, withdrawal for
prolonged use without charge-
out, careless or conscious mis-
shelving, or hiding of books in
desk drawers or elsewhere in
the stacks. Those most injured
by such practices are. of course,
other students. We have no
idea what percentage of stu-
dents is engageo in these acts.
It may \yc that only a small
percentage are actually in-
volved. But whether directly
involved or not, certainly most
students know very well what
goes on in the library. And,
thus, by their continuing fail-
ure to take, or even to suggest,
any corrective action they are
in effect condoning such be-
havior.

Brandeis students have com-
plained persistently that in
many areas of University life
they are not treated as mature,
responsible adults. Yet the li-
brary is one area where, given
free reign, they have acted
with neither responsibility nor
maturity. We would remind
students that one of the marks
of a first-rate University is a
ftrst-rate library. We would
al.st> like to suggest to the Com-
mittee for an Ideal Campus, as
well as to other student or-
ganizations, that one of the
most important ways in which
they might make this a more
ideal campus is by taking steps
to correct the shocking student
abuse of library facilities.

be considered a position

fective symlK)l of anything.

The acting was more notable
for what it attempted than for
what it achieved with such un-
likely material. There were
four notable performances, the
l>est of which was done by Sid-
ney Becker as Henry Ginger, a
Hyde Park nut, who can make
of his l)ody a virtuoso comic
instrument. Next, James Klosty
as the explosive veteran of the
IRA and present-day pimp and
washroom attendant played
with such vigor as we have
been accustomed to expect from
his performance in last year's
Fred; along with Mr. Becker,
he helped relieve the dreary
error of Mr. Arden's lack of
judgment. Performances of
nearly equal merit were given
by Ellin Rothstein as the Irish
harlot, sister to Conor and mis-
tress of the MP., and by Charles
Siegel as Butterthwaite. In-
deed, Mr. Siegel's performance
in the last act was mostly re-
sponsible for salvaging the play
enough to rate a curtain call.

Daniel Greenblat in the high-
ly demanding role of Krank
turned in a performance wor-
thy of praise for the magnitude
of what he tried to do. The role
itself is impossible, I think, not
because the character is so in-
consisent, but because he is un-
believable in his inconsistency
— compare the song at the be-
gmning with the conclusion,
that Krank was a collaborator.
Drawing the best conclusion,
Greenblat played a kind of
Felix Krull. a morally neutral
virtuoso at minor criminality,

form in areas where police
*'protection** is non-existent or
where the police are actually
dangerous. This is roughly the
case in Jonesboro. Two weeks
ago, several people were ar-
rested during a demonstration
at the courthouse.

All three were charged with
disturbing the peace. The Ne-
gro, however, was standing
across the street from the dem-
onstration, and the photogra-
pher was doing nothing but fol-
lowing his trade. The Gram-
bling students had tugged at
the court house door to see if
it was open, and were prompt-
ly arrested for attempting to
destroy public property.

Two Kinds of Noise

The two white men were
beaten up in jail by a third man,
who was released by police a
few hours after he had been
brought there, close to mid-
night.

Jonesboro has probably not
been a pleasant place for Ne-
groes since the end of Recon-
struction, and certainly not in
the last few years. One Negro
woman told of her daughter's
marriage: the groom grew up
in New York; the two met
while he was stationed in the
South with the Army. They
lived in Jonesboro for a while,
but only for a short while; they
now live in New Jersey. "He
wasn't used to that 'yessuh' and
'nossuh' and going in the back
door, so they left," the woman
told me. There are some
places in Jonesboro where Ne-
groes no longer are obliged to
use the back door or the "col-
ored" water fountain, but I
would guess that even if the
groom knew this, ?nd even if
he knew that Governor John
McKeithen had visited Jones-
boro last spring, he would not
pack his bags in Asbury Park
and head for Jonesboro.

COLD EYE

Seeley

Baulkfast, played by Judith
Sachs, and Jon Hoffman's
policeman were competently
done. The other performances
struck this reviewer as either
unconvincing or thin.

By and large the effects were
the best part of the evening.
The scenery by Howard Bay
was. of course, of high profes-
sional caliber — most striking
being a photographic aerial
view of London. Similarly, the
sound (by Judy Allen) and
music (by Alvin Lucier) were
well done. Professor Moore's
direction was proiessionally
capable, yet even he was un-
able to find a convincing frame-
work upon which to hang this
dreadful play.

returning, though it was ad-
mitted by a Senate investiga-
tive committee that injustices
were committed that the ma-
chinery of the Faculty Sen-
ate could just not cope with.
Students will never have a
"voice" in determining most
university policies.

This might seem unjustifi-
ably negative. Student Coun-
cil and its committees work.
The EPC seems to be getting
things done.

The trouble with these ex-
amples is that they all repre-
sent concerns that are com-
mon to the relevant groups,
or unique to a single group
and indifferently considered
by the others. Student Coun-
cil must necessarily deal with
interests of this type, and must
ignore student interests that if
emphasized would antagonize
the faculty and/or the admin-
istration. I am not degrading
the work of the Student Coun-
cil; rather I am putting their
work in proper perspective.
Consequently, a number of
student concerns are ignored
by the student government in
its dealings with the other seg-
ments of the university. It
would be foolhardy to expect
the faculty and administra-
tion to grant us power in work-
ing out these 'controversial*
issues. Why should they?

But, says my invisable an-
tagonist, what about the Swig-
gart committee? It seems to
recognize potential student in-
volvement in faculty appoint-
ment procedures. Yes, I answer
with an insidious grin, but the
only reason the committee was
formed in the first place was
because The Justice a. d a small
group of students raised quite
a 'stink*. And this seems to me
the only way in which students
can have their concerns (those
which oppose the interests of
the other, more powerful
groups) recognized in a mean-
ingful way. Students have the
power to assert their interests
in the face of faculty and ad-
ministration opposition but
not within the established in-
stitutions of communication
and negotiation. Reaii/ing that
the administration and faculty
do not give a damn about fair-
ness and justice in asserting
interests which oppose the
student interests, we should in
turn begin to play their kind
of game.

Much easier said than done
. . . Students generally don't
care about any issue dealing
with the tmiversity as a com-
munity. When care is ex-
pressed, fear of administrative
reprisal raises its repressive
head and poof, no action. This
combination of indifference
and fear squelches most sparks
of student protest.

For those students who are
concerned, few meaningful al-
ternatives are open. They can
get out — move off campus and
di.ssociate themselves from all
non-academic aspects of uni-
versity life. They can stick
around, wait for issues whose
appeals are general enough to
stimulate momentum, and
then organize and direct pro-
test. And they can forget about
the whole magillah, concen-
trating on the 'negotiable is-
sues*.

What strikes me as most
strange and most unfortunate
is that students have power
but refuse — and will probably
always refuse — to use it.

asset to them because nothing
educates like making the law
under which one lives.

I do not think our students
are peculiar. All students act
like men and women to their
limits [as do we] when they
are treated as men and women.
The greatest crime of Ameri-
can academic life, in my opin-
ion, is the failure to make use
of-lor, rather, the fighting of^
this principle. Most universi-
ties treat the students as "idiots
and infants" [in the words of
the Common Law] by barrmg
them from a full role m gov-
erning their university. They
then give as the reason for bar-
ring them the infantility which
is the result of that exclusion.
This is how Negro voting was
till recently barred in the
South. It is breaking up there.
Can we long continue it m the
nation's intellectual capitals
and moral centers of gravity,
the Universities?

I think not.

I hope the Committee will-
when it has properly settled the
faculty appointments problem
—extend its visit to all matters
on which there is not weighty
evidence that students are in-
ept I do not know of any such
and to suppose so without trial
is contempt.

enue. This would allow at least
six more issues to be printed

this year.

After some discussion, Zer-
kin moved that Council declare
a two-week grace period, to
give the Justice time to amend
its Constitution.

At a meeting held January 7.
Cohen presented changes that
had been made in the constitu-
tion. Administrative officers
were eliminated as unnecessary.
A clause stating that only those
who have paid the SAF will be
permitted to work on the Jus-
tice was added. (This came in
response to a fifth charge of
Shuffman*s. that members of
the editorial board had not paid
the SAF.) Editorials will ap-
pear only when % of the edi-
torial board approves them.
Other opinions by members of
the editorial board will app^^ar
as signed columns. All letters
will be printed, space permit-
ting. ^ ^.

Some council representatives
felt special provision should be
made to print all letters, by
placing too-long letters in a
subsequent issue. It was sug-
gested that the constitution's
provision for removal of a staff
member by a vote of the edi-
torial board be amended to pro-
vide for removal by a vote of
the staff. These issues were to
be di.scussed at a Justice staff
meeting Sunday.

the sake of annexation, but to

The conflict emphcsizes In-
dia's dedication to a secular
state. Those fallen in combat,
said the speaker, were mem-
bers of all minority groups —
Sikhs, Parsees, Christians, Mus-
lims as well as Hindus. There
was no "hate campaign" against
the Pakistanis, merely the de-
termination to restore normal-
cy as quickly as possible.

"The Cease Fire line has
been violated at least 3,000
times by the Pakistanis," Mme.
Pandit stated. Yet she repeated
her belief that peace was es-
sential. How this could be
achieved? Her own reply was,
•'Pakistan must realize that she
cannot alter the face of geog-
raphy by breaking up India's
unity. She must recognize that
China is India's enemy." The
last phrase referred to a China-
Pakistani air agreement, and a
foreign a i d agreement, con-
cluded significantly on Sept.
4th. 1965. as well as the pres-
ence of Chinese armed forces
in East Pakistan. These rap-
ports can only be considered by
India as a sign of colusion.

She continued, "We must see
a Pakistani change of heart.
You cannot clap with one hand.
India has no desire tc break up
the Pakistani State. It is in In-
dia's interest that Pakistan
should prosper, that links are
forged to bring the two nations
closer."

Madame Pandit was calm,
forceful, eloquent — and per-
haps misleading. She was ex-
tremely well-received. H o w-
ever, as I looked around the
room, I observed that the ma-
}ority of the audience was made
up of young Indians. They made
a great deal of noise clapping,
and I wondered if the absent
Pakistanis would have been
surprised that this could have
been done using only one hand.

Being a curious person, I de-
cided to speak with some Paki-
stanis. I even found one who
had heard Mme. Pandit's
speech, Aizal Khan (no rela-
tion to Ayub) '66, a third year
Wien student at Brandeis. We
discussed the controversial
question over an indifferent
dinner of Salisbury steak. As
I suspected, Mme. Pandit's
speech was good and partisan.
There was an opposite view-
point to be had.

Afzal believes that the con-
flict between India and Paki-
stan is not over "a basic dif-
ference in approach to nation-
hood' as Mme. Pandit stated.
The fundamental bone of con-
tension is Kashmir, he said.

1 asked Afzal al>out the 1947
division and the imbalance that
Mme. Pandit claims Pakistanis
want to changfe. He expressed
his concern over India's atti-
tude towards Pakistan in gen-
eral. India IS larger (and will
be even if Pakistan should get
Kashmir), and as a result
adopts a tone of condescension
towards her smaller neiRhbor.
The face of geography cannot
be altered, and Afzal resents
the fact that India would have
parity based on size. He too
wants a "new design, "one in
which India will give up the
"Big Brother" role and accept
Pakistan as an equal based on
power and prestige.

Of course, Afzal feels that
India was the aggressor in the
recent flare-ups. "If we vio-
lated the cease-fire 3,000 times,
according to Mme. Panoit, then
India has violated it at least
5,000 times!"

"What about that second
point in the U.N. Resolution,"
I asked him. "If Pakistan re-
moved her forces, couldn't she
legally demand the plebiscite?"
He laughed. India has refused
now to discuss Kashmir, claim-
ing it is a question of inter-
nal sovereignty. Early in 1965
Shastri made it known that In-
dian civil servants would take
over the state administration of
Kashmir. Pakistan had to act
before the question was closed

for the world. If she withdrew
her forces from Kashmir, India
would take it over by might,
refuse to negotiate, and Paki-
stan would be out in the cold.

••What about courting China?"
was my next question. Afzal
said that Pakistan and America
had been great friends until the
1962 Sino-Indian War in the
Himalayas. At that time Amer-
ica supplied military aid to In-
dia, breaking a promise to
Ayub Khan to consult with him
first. The Pakistani army leans
to the Right, Afzal went on,
rry^ Ayub is in the Center.
Pakistan is being forced to-
wurus a rapprochement with
China to maintain the power
balance with America-India. I
discovered later that Pakistan
is also knotting closer ties with
Turkey, Iran and Afghanistan.

To Pakistanis then, the prob-
lem ef Kasbmir would seem a
question of natural justice. To
Indians, and especially its rul-
ers, I think the underlying
question is not that of justice,
but of honor or even love.
Nehru onee said, of Kashmir,
**How can they who have fallen
under its spell release them-
selves from its enchantment?"

Indians and Pakistanis are at
odds because the former won t
kill cows and the latter eat

them, because the former tend
to be evasive, subtle, and quiet-
ly introspective and the latter
tend to be direct, frank, and
outgoing. Yet physically, they
are not unlike an Indian
friend of mine often whispers
to me "You see that man there?
1 can't tell if he's Indian or
Pakistani." A reporter from the
Washington Post Outlook char-
acterizes the relationship be-
tween Indians and Pakistanis
as "neurotic, a love-hate rela-
tionship of the kind that exists
between separated husband and
wife."

I would suggest then, that
the real problem is not that of
a conflict of ideologies of na-
tionhood, but a conflict of per-
sonalities, with Kashmir as its
manifestation. And I think sud-
denly of a cartoon in which is
depicted a tattered and emaci-
ated mother and child, cower-
ing under a rock and grasping
empty foodbowls decorated
with the words "India and Paki-
stan's Starving Millions." Flash-
ing silver bomber planes are
zooming by overhead, and the
caption is, "Suddenly we're
rich enough to go to war."
Somehow this conflict of per-
sonalities must be rescued if
the peoples of t>oth nations are
to survive.

There is one group of lines, in

that a hunk of obscure personal

manicured clear prose in The

Folio. It is a rarity, in this time
of frantic emotive young au-

with the exacting questioning
of the value of his emotions and
situation. As he is addressing
himself, it is the more remark-
able that this intention did not
dissolve into an internal mono-
logue. It is, however, a state-
ment of intent, of ambition for
a document which does not yet
exist. The task proffered is ad-
mirable; its success of course
cannot be judged yet. 1 am lim-

On the Judges' Bench

An Oasis

Pete Welner

There was a sense of shock and disbelief in the li-
brary. Nobody could believe it. The basketball team had
beaten Bates? And in the desolate wastelands of Maine?

Yet not until the 11 o'clock news were the students
assured that it wasn't a fantasy."*

There it was — on the air —
Brandeis bad beaten Bates,
84-76, for the Judges first win
In two years and 24 games.
And from a six-point half-time
deficit, no less!

What was this — a new type
of Brandeis team? No, not quite.
It was the same team that had
lost so decisively to MIT by 28
that same night on a taped TV
game. No changes, no gim-
micks.

The same starting five — a
junior, a soph, and three fresh-
men — had gone and ended
what had seemed to be an end-
less string of defeat and des-
pair. They did it with talent
and sheer determination. They
went out there wanting to win
and did.

Zimmerman led all scorers
with 29. Haggerty snared 24 re-
bounds, netted 17 points and
played a superlative game.
Katzman had 20 points, Rovner
11 and nine rebounds and Gil
7 points and seven rebounds.

The Judges trailed through-
out the first half and most of
the second. After 20 minutes
the Brandeis five was on the
short end of a 48-42 score. But
with 11 minutes left a bucket
by Zimmerman gave the Judges
a 65-64 lead. Brandeis then held
on to register its first victory in
two years.

The game was won off the
boards as Brandeis outrebound-
ed Bates 53-28.

Before and After

As for action before and
after the Bates game, the less
said the better.

Last week the cagers, play-
ing without Zimmerman and
Haggerty, took on a weak Am-
herst (2-5) quintet. Amherst
raced out to a 10-2 lead as the
Judges' oflfense failed. But
Brandeis fought back, albeit
against the Lord Jeffs' second
string, on the strength of fine
shooting by Katzman and Rov-
ner. At half, Brandeis was
down by four, 39-35.

Amherst came racing back in
the second half and completely
outplayed and outrebounded
the Judges, Jay Sarles and Ken
Howard led the onslaught. Am-
herst shot an accurate 53 %
while the Judges could manage
only 36%. Steve Katzman was
high for Brandeis with 14. Ja-
cobson had 11 rebounds in the
losing cause.

On the trip to New York, a
variety of circumstances led to
an agonizing 87-79 defeat at the
hands of Hunter College. A
couple of hostile New York
refs, a little airsickness and a
nervous hometown attitude
spelled defeat for the Brandeis
five.

The Blue and White were
never in the game. At the half
the count was 41-30. Poor ball
handling, schoolyard shooting
and poor passes spelled defeat.
Zimmerman was high scorer
with 20, playing on a bad an-
kle. Gil racked up 13 and Rov-
ner 12. Klein was tops for
Hunter with 22.

In other pre-Christmas. or
rather pre-Chanukah action,
the Judges slacked off on de-
fense as they gave up 113 to
Springfield, HI to Trinity and
94 to MIT.

The complexions of the games
were never in doubt as all
three opponents literally ran
the Judges off the court. Against
the Maroons and Bantams the
Judges couldn't contend with a
full or even half-court press.

Springfield and Trinity both
gins, 65-43, and 57-35. Spring-
ran up 22 points half-time mar-

AICj Clark, Bowdoin on Slate

Before Cagers^ Midyear Break

The court Judges will wind up the first half of the campaigrn this week with a
triad of games against American International, Clark and Bowdoin.

Coach Hubie LeBlanc hopes to have his top scorer and top rebounder back in
action on Tuesday at AIC. Barry Zimmerman, averaging 22 points per game, and
Tom Haggerty, averaging 12 rebounds, have been out of action since the Hunter con-
test. '

Zimmerman has been hampered by an ankle injury. The 5-11 sharpshooter haa
been the key to the Judges' scoring purch this season. The Portland, Maine native
missed the Trinity and Amherst games and is a doubtful starter this week.

Zimmy led the cagers in their sole win of the season netting 29 against Bates in
the 84-76 win. He topped all scorers in the MIT loss (31), and the Hunter loss (20).
The junior forward has amassed 110 points this season and a career total of 586 points.

Barry is the club's leading shooter averaging 51.3% from the floor and 88.2%
from the free throw line.

field had six men in double fig-
ures with Capt. Bill Scanlon
leading all scorers with 22.
Katzman had 21 and Zimmer-
man 20 for Brandeis. The final
count was 113-76.

The Maroons showed all the
finesse of a club that had toured
Europe all summer for the
State Department. They seemed
almost professional out on the
court.

Trinity shot a tough 53%
in their 111-85 victory and had
five of 13 players in double
figures. High man was Jim Bel-
fiore with 22, mainly on fan-
tastic jumpers. Jim Stuhlman
had 15 rebounds and 12 points.

Brandeis had a 50-point sec-
ond-half (against the Trinity
scrubs) with Dave Jacobson
leading the way. Katzman was
high with 15 points and an
amazing 12 assists. Haggerty,
Gil and Jacobson had 14 apiece
and Ray Valiton put in 11. Ja-
cobson also pulled down 15 re-
bounds.

On TV against the MIT Engi-
neers, the Judges managed to
extend their losing streak to
23. Once more Brandeis was
never in the game and easily
succumbed to Tech, 94-66. Dave
Jansson pumped in 23 for Tech
while Zimmerman had 31 for
Brandeis.

But despite all the futility
and mediocrity, the Judges did
win a ball-game. It was an aw-
fully big win — yet the Judges
still have a long way to go. It's
going to be a long, hard pull —
but these kids have it in them
to make the most of it.

Wrestlers Win Third;
Fencers Lose Third

By RIC USLANER

Amid the basketball victory against Bates and :he
subsequent return to normalcy, few people seem to have
noticed that the Brandeis wrestling squad is on its way
to a winning season. Less can be said for the fencers, who
have been plagued by the illness of coach Chris Wearing.
The wrestlers ripped into

Emerson Friday by a score of
38-10. The team now boasts a
3-2 record, having defeated
Lowell State and a strong
Worcester Polytech squad. The
defeats came at the hands of the
Harvard junior varsity and
Tufts.

The fencers, now at 1-3,
bowed to Harvard Thursday
20-7. The loss, however, did
show signs of hope since the
opening match of the season
was a 26-1 disaster against the
same Crimson squad.

The grapplers lost veteran
Joe Shuldiner for the re-
mainder of the season Friday
when the senior broke his ankle
at the Emerson meet. The team
is generally strong, though,
gaining support from four
freshmen. Mike Lerman and
Ronnie Ratner are undefeated
to date; Neil Weiss and John
Cipora have only suffered one
defeat each.

Captain Norm Wilson said,
"For the first time since we've
had wrestling at Brandeis,
we've gotten a great deal of

strength from freshmen. I
think that you're going to see
a wrestling tradition built up
here if we can pick up two
good freshmen every year." He
also praised Coach Ted Reese,
saying that the new mentor is
"terrific, very sacrificing, and
with the team all the way."

The fencers, who count a 15-
12 squeaker against Holy Cross
as their only victory, continue
to sag in epee. In the Harvard
meet, four points were regis-
tered in saber competition,
three in foil, and none in epee.
Co-captain Ricky Cohn won
two matches and Steve Lieb-
haber and Dan Shames cap-
tured one each with the saber.
Fred Kapain took two foil con-
tests and Harvey Simon won
one.

The fencers will meet
Worcester Tech Saturday at
Shapiro Athletic Center. As for
the wrestlers, the team spirit
and the good physical shape of
the squad will come in handy
when they take on Boston Col-
lege at the gym tonight.

Freshmen Prominent

A brace of freshmen guards,
Steve Katzman and Mario Gil,
have been bearing the burden
of playmaker chores. Katzman
is second-highest scorer, aver-
aging 14.1 points a game. The
5-11 Brooklyn resident has av-
eraged 88% from the free throw
lihe and has numerous assists.

Katzman is a slick floor lead-
er and has plenty of drive. The
former Madison High co-capt.
joins with Gil, another 5-11
freshman from New York, in
the backcourt. Gil has been
netting 8.6 a game.

Sophomores Jack Rovner and
Dave Jacobson have come
along quickly after a slow start.
Rovner, a 6-3 forward, has
scored ten points a game and
4.7 rebounds. Jacobson, a 6-5
center, has scored 6.3 a game
and snared 7.7 rebounds.

Several other freshmen have .
figured in LeBlanc's strategy.
Forward Chuck Dranetz of
Brookline has shown streaks of
aggressiveness while on the
court. The 6-1 frosh is averag-
ing 4.8 a game and 4.6 re-
bounds. Ray Valiton and Dave
Norman have also shown much
promise while juniors Richie
Epstein and Steve Goldstein
have been used sparingly. Ep-
stein has seen more action re-
cently and is scoring at 5-7
pace. The 5-10 guard is shoot-
ing 50% from the floor.

CRISIS

VIETNAM

John P. Roche, Morris Kill-
quit Professor of Labor and

(currently on leave) is
former three-time National
Chairman of Americans for
Democratic Action and was
a speech-writer for Hubert
Humphrey in the 1964 presi-

The Issues in Vietnam

By John P. Roche

There are a number of grounds on which one can oppose American intervention in Viet-
nam. Starting at the simplest level, an individual may oppose the war because he does not want
to take any time out from his career for military service, because it would make his mother
nervous if he were in the army, or even because the pay is insufficient . These are quite rational
stands, though hardly adequate as a foundation for national ix>licy-making. Nor — it must be
emphasized — do they supply much of a base for a radical critique of the "warfare state" —
whatever the content of "radicalism" may be, it is certainly not built around the proposition "I
want to survive." Kveryone has a constitutional right not to be a hero (I have exercised my
privileges under this heading on occasion), but he has no right to dress up his human failings
in a halo of higher morality.

By definition then, the "radical intellectual" must base his opposition to our involvement
in Vietnam on principled rather than expedieiitial grouiuls. And anyone claiming the status
of an intellectual — radical or otherwise — i.s under ^

the compelling obligation to formulate his views
with logical consistency; he cannot leapfrog his
premises anytime one of them begins to seem In-
adequate. If he rejects violence, he must do so on
the basis of generic commitmcnls. If he says "I re-
ject war becau.se innocent people are killed," he is
forljidden any favorite wars.

So much for the ground rules.

Now on what principled grounds can an intel-
lectual denounce the war in Vietnam? It seems to
me there are two principled bases of opposition. The
first is an absolute rejection of war as an instrument
of international policy which should be accom-
pa/iied by an equivalent rejection of violence in
personal relations. This is, of course, the cla.ssical
pacifist position nobly exemplified in our time by
A. J. Muste and the American Friends Service
Committee. The pacifist, whether religious or hu-
manist, has made a total dedication to a world with-
out violence, has adopted what Max Weber called
an ethic of ultimate ends, and is quite prepared to
"speak Truth to Power" whatever may be the per-
sonal con.sequences. His is often a stark and lonely
road — only those who have read the testament of
Dietrich BonhoefTer can realize the agonizing bur-
den of pacifist principles when confronted by total
terror.

Like BonhoefTer — who after fearful anguish de-
cided that violence, while inherently immoral, was
necessary against Nazi totalitarianism and died a
martyr's death — I am unable to accept the final de-
mands of pacifism. Yet I am quite prepared to rec-

ognize and honor those who take this position They
are spokesmen for what is probably an impossible
ideal, but 1 hope, in the ijiteresls of my descend-
ants, tliat their ideal will triumph. However, I must
live with my limitations, and I am simply not
capable of arguing that the Indians should not re-
sist the Chinese, the Israelis the Arabs, or the black
Rhodesians the whiles (or for that matter the Ne-
groes of Mi.ssissippi tiie Ku Klux Klan) in the name
of this ultimate vision of non-violence. Thus, while
I cannot accept his premi.se, I have no quarrel with
the pacifist who objects to our intervenion in Viet-
nam: he is. in Thoreau's phrase, marching to a dif-
ferent drum axid his dedication to his objective
transcends the mundane criteria of international
relations as we know them. In the Augustinian
sense, he is iji this world but not of it — his allegi-
ance is to a City of God which t'.ie rest of us can
only imagine as a misty, remote aspiration. His
wi,tness demands our respect.

If one is not a pacifist, he may still find a moral
basis for condemning American policy in Vietnam
by arguing that — while violence per se is not neces-
sarily evil — the goals of public policy are immoral
and corrupt all the instruments. It is not that in-
nocent women and children are dying, but that they
are dying unnecessarily as a con.sequence of an evil
policy. An individual with this approach could
logically support war in defcn.se of India or Israel
while opposing our activities in Vietnam. But this
line of argument requires considerable support.

One cannot simply .«Jay that he is prepared to use
v4.oIence in situation X but not in situation Y on
grounds of personal taste, because he *'likes" In-
dians or Israelis. Any charge of immorality, in sum,
has to be formulated on some consistent theoretical
infrastructure.

What basis is there for charging that we are en-
gaged in an immoral war in Vietnam? Pacifists ex-
cepted, there can only be one answer: that the
Communists are right and we are wrong, that we
are engaged in an "unjust war." The technicjues of
war-making are irrelevant — if we are wrong, il
would be as immoral to fight with cross-bows as
with jets and napalm. Similarly, the fact that inno-
cent women and chilchcn are dying is in itself ir-
relevant— if we are right, as we presumably were
in fightinii Nazi Germany, the death of the innocent
would be written ofi as an unfortimate by-product
of necessary and just acts.

We must then turn to the question of the justice
of the Conimunist cause iji Vietnam since this and
this alone can provide principled grounds to the
non-pacifist opponent (»f United .Stales' policy.
(There are a number of expedientiai grounds for
opposin.? the war and taking an isolationist posture
in Asia, but we are here concerned with the moral
bases of opposition.) Professor Kugene Genove.sc
stated very frankly: "1 do not fear r)r reject the im-
pending Vietcong victory in Vietnam. I welcome
it." From his vantage point as the prophet of the
weltgeist, Genovese .sees the confrontation in Viet-
nam as one Ijetween an historically progressive
North and a reactionary neo-colonialist South. If
one shares Professor Genovcse's religious convic-
tions, it is patent that the United States is the "but-
tress of reaction," that we arc trying to der;«il the lo-
comotive of history, and that we are fighting a rear-
guard action against the forces of "historical pro*?-
re.ss." By definition a war against ".socialism" must
be immoral — Professor Genovese and those who
agree with him have thus set forth a consistent case
for opposing the war. Those of his persuasion and
the integral pacifists are, I submit, the only indi-
viduals who have established their standing as
moral critics of American intervention.

artiiiment which caji be broadly designated as ex-
pt'ditntial or pragmatic. Here we have a broad spec-
trum raiiK'ing from new-fashioned isolationists on
one ( xtreme to the "American protection is more
hazardous than Communist tyranny" groupement
at th(^ other These objections to our actions run
aMai-nst their practicality or productivity rather
than their morality. An interesting development has
been the conversion of a number of liberals, and
even some* alleged "radicals," to the dogmas of geo-
politics, traditionally a reactionary entertainment.
The great expectation among these neo-Machiavel-
lians is that, with the proper bribe, Ho Chi Minh
will l^ecome a "Tito" a/id presumably rush to con-
tain Red China. The problem with this is that the
Red Chinese have not been leaning on Ho: Tito,
after all, did not become a "Tito" for the sheer
novelty of it. But our geopolitical finaglers may de-
vise some way of getting the Chicoms to put the
arm on Ho (perhaps with a research grant from the
CIA).

A variation on the ^geopolitical theme suggests
that we should turn the South Vietnamese over to
Ho, make the Russians happy, the Chicoms mad,
and thus exacerbate the Sino-Soviet schism. Some-
body has, 1 think, suggested that we could improve
this scenario by giving the South Vietnamese to the
Russians to give to Ho. I think this bush league
IVlachiavellianism is childish nonsense: for one
thing, it is unwise to dabble in the heresies of ofher
men's churches. Moreover, E. H. Carr's observation
on a similar effort in geopolitical horse-trading
sticks in my mind as a warning to our macht poli-
tikers. "The negotiations," Carr remarked in 1939,
•'which \v(\ up to the Munich Agreement of Septem-
ber 29, 19.38, were the nearest approach in recent
years to the .settlement of a major international is-
Fue by a procedure of peaceful change." Unfor-
tunatc'ly, the Nazis refu.*^ to stay Iwught and Carr
had to do some rewriting for the next edition of
this work.

Updated Isolationism

The most persuasive argument iOr getting out
of Vietnam rests on what might be called updated
i.solationism. Ironically, isolationism is in the H)60's
a fimctional position, i.e., it is feasible for the United
States to devote it.self wholeheartedly to atlluence
in one country and let the rest of the world slide off
into chaos. Weapons technology has ende<l our need
for foreign ba.'^es: with ICBMs and naval power we
no longer have any military rationale for involve-
ment outside of the Western hemisphere. (The
Soviet Union is in roughly the same position and
obviously there are strong drives towards isolation-
ism within the Soviet leadership.) The Tory Min-
ister of Defense, Enoch Powell, recently suggested
to the Conservative Party Conference that the
British s-hould liquidate their commitments E^ist of
Suez and watch developments from the sidelines; a
left-wing I.^borite intellectual (with that casual
racism which is so pervasive in British conversa-
tion put it to me more bluntly: "Let the woggies
fight it out."

In this spirit — which is profoundly conservative
in the psychological sense — an American can argue
that the game in Asia is not worth the camile. What
diderence does it make in the overall balance of
world power whether South Vietnam is inside or
outside of the Communist sphere? Why lose Ameri-
can lives and waste American resources? Why gen-
erate internal tensions, risk a revival of "McCar-
ihyism," chance a general war? Why get involved
in a quarrel in a faraway country between people
of whom we know nothing? More broadly, what
difference does it make to us if the Africaners
bute'her the Bantu, the Arabs overrun the Israelis,
or the Chinese crush India? Now that "Fortress
America" is a militarily viable proposition (vulner-
able only to a nuclear attack which a policy of dis-
engagement from the world could hardly provoke),
why not pull back behind the moat and enjoy our-
selves'' After all, who are we to impose our value
system on other pi^ople; Sukarno may have known
bis customers better than we do when he observed
that democratic government was not 'in harmony
with the Indonesian soul."

It is not my intention to caricature this position
— although I obviously have no use for it, it has to

be understood as the most effeeive fationale for dis-
engaging, not merely from Asia but from Africa
and even Europe, as well. There is a liberal version
which emphasizes cultural relativism ("w'hat right
do we have to tell Asians how to run their affairs?")
and a reactionary version which pushes racism
(•'Asians — or Africans — are incapable of building
free societies"), but the net result is a united front
of utilitarians in full agreement that national jel-
fishness should be the foundation of American for-
eign policy.

And what strikes me about the current debate
on Vietnam is that most of the opponents of our in-
tervention spout moral axioms like a geyser but in
fact rest their position on precisely this new isola-
tionism, this modern international application of
what Karl Marx called the "pig philosophy." I have
no objection in principle to Sermrns on the Mount,
but I have no interest in hearing one from Machia-
velli.

Why We Must Stay

As I am out of sympathy with the anti-Vietnam
movement and only the pacifist critique has any at-
traction for me, I should briefly explicate the basis
of my support for the defense of South Vietnam. I
dislike war intensely; three years of my life were
excised as neatly as an appendix by World War II,
and the last thing I would wish for anyone is a
similar journey into limbo, if not hell. But I am not
prepared to turn 15 million South Vietnamese over
to the communist terror regime in Hanoi.

Yet this is what unilateral disengagement — no
matter how much it is prettied up — amounts to.
One demographic point should be made perfectly
clear: 95 ')J of the population of South Vietnam
lives on roughly 20''/r of the land area. Thus vhe al-
legation that the Vietcong "controls 30% of the
countryside" has no representational significance.
About 80 7f of Vietnam has no significant popula-
tion (less than 20 i er .square kilometer) and it is
the.sr jungle plateaux which the Vietcong "control."
In other words, in effective military terms the
United States and South Vietnamese forces "con-
trol" those sections of South Vietnam — the cities,
the coastal plains — where the population concentra-
tion rivals that in Belgium.

I emphasize this because the casual newspaper
reader might have the impression that most of the
population of South Vietnam is already under Viet-
cong control so that our departure would have only
a marginal impact. This demographic situation is
al.so important in two other contexts: first, it makes
the "enclave theory" — which I was one of the first
to propo.se — quite feasible. We can hold the popula-
tion centers indefinitely, establish ground security
(particularly in the delta), and let the Vietcong
and the NLF exercise unlimited sovereignty over
the bush. The enclave theory provides a sound basis
for fighting a limited war.

Second, if one examines carefully where in the
South there has been intense bombing, he discovers
that the overwhelming percentage of strikes have
been in areas of low population intensity. In Pleiku
province, for example, where the heavy bombers
have been extremely active, the normal civilian
population is about 5 per square kilometer; in Binh
Duong, another prime target, the pK)pulation is less
than 100 per square kilometer and this F>opulation
is concentrated in five towns which the bombers
have avoided. In short, the common notion that
American aircraft are bombing and strafing the

The Vietnam Disaster

by Lewis A. Coser

My good friend John P. Roche recently wrote In
support of the administration's Vietnam policy that
"the surrender of South Vietnam to Hanoi involves
handing over 15 million people to a terror regime."
One wonders what he thinks of the regime under
which they are living right now! A major propor-
tion of the population has already been evicted from
their homes and turned into a horde of refugees
huddlf^d together in miserable camps, daily napalm
bombings destroy the villages of those who have
not fled, "defoliation raids" destroy the rice crops
of the peasantry, the civilian death rates mount
appallin«4ly — not only in the plains but even along
the coast and Roche will make us believe that this
slaughter has to go on to prevent the people from
succumbing to a terror regime! And what about
those brave freedom lovers, the Saigon generals,
whom we help to stave off the dangers of a terror
regime? Well, Nguyen Cao Ky has repeatedly stated
his great admiration for Adolf Hitler and the whole
bunch of generals live by a morality quite similar
to that which animated the members of Murder, Inc.
Come, come John, whom are you trying to kid?

So much has been .said and written about the
Vietnam me.ss that one is not likely to add much
that is novel in a 1500-words piece. Nevertheless,
let me at least attempt to clarify a few points:

1 ) It is quite possible that 10 or 7 or even 5 years
ago a consistent policy of land reform — aiming at
IJiving tlie land to tho.se who till it — might have
made a majority of the Vietnam peasantry loyal to

Saigon. Nothing leads one to believe that they were
initially in favor of the Vietcong or of Hanoi.

2) This was not done for reasons that were not
simply happenstance. Saigon was dominated by
mandarin types who, if not themselves landowners,
certainly shared their outlook. Far from welcoming
a strengthening of the independent peasantry and
peasant participation in political affairs, they feared
it as a threat to their privileged po.sition. Saigon
was dominated by Vietnam's counterpart of France's
Bourbons, men who had learned nothing and for-
gotten nothing. They gradually eliminated all re-
formist elements from power; and the Diem regime
and its numerous successors, having no roots in the
countryside (except among Christian refugees from
the North) ruled with the help of the whip and
the lash.

3) With honorable exceptions, American ad-
visors, because of ignorance, stupidity, class preju-
dice or sheer lack of social and political imagina-
tion, condoned the Saigon Bourbons. Their most
creative effort involved the truly grandiose feat of
moral alchemy by which they succeeded in .selling
the American people a bunch of decadent mandarins
as progressive democrats and brave freedom fighters.

4) Thus Saigon and the major cities harbored
wasteful and corrupt officials who battened on the
taxes and rents extracted from the countryside —
and on ever-increasing American subsidies.

5) The revolt in the South started in a major
way in the early sixties because of the despair and

Vietnamese equivalent of Queens is completely in-
accurate. Indee<i, there has not been a single bomb-
er strike, or strategic air to ground strike by fighter
aircraft (i.e., a strike which is not part of a raging
battle) in any administrative subdivsion of South
Vietnam with a population concentration of more
than 190 per sciuare kilometer. The United States
has made every effort to operate with minimal im-
pact on the Vietnamese n<?ople — and the 700-800,-
000 refugees from the Vietcong who are thronging
camps in the South obviously voted with their feet
for the Saigon government.

The nub of the matter is that the Hanoi re-^ime
is a brutal, ruthless dictatorship. He and Giap dis-
posed of their version of Sti dents for a Democratic
Society in 1946-47 — "unreliable elements," "Trot-
skyites," and hemi-demi-semi-Marxists, wIk) had
fought for independence against the French, were
summarily executed. I recently met a Vietnamese
doctor who was in 1945-46 a leader of the Viet Minh
in the South, was deemed a "Trotskyite" by Giap,
invited to an underground meeting in Hanoi, and
betrayed to the Fi'encn! (Fortunately, the French
officer assigned to execute him turned out to be a
former classmate at the Ecole Polytechnique who
permitted him to escape.) It has operated a massive
terror in the North — murdering perhaps 200,000
"kulaks" in the course of collectivizing agriculture
— and has sought to extend its terrorist hegemony
to the South, where about 30,000 South Vietnamese
officials have been murdered since 1960. Hanoi's
aim, clearly expressed, is th "liberation" and "uni-
fication" of the South and only American power
has .*;tood in the way.

I am glad that we have rejected the selfis'h coun-
sels of isolationism and intervened to defend the
South. Rightly or wrongly, I believe that the Amer-
ican people have an obligation to other human be-
ings, that our power in the world should be used
within the limits of prudence to forward the ideals
we cherish. This does not mean that we impose dem-
ocratic institutions on the South Vietnamese, but it
does involve our making it possible for the South
Vietnamese to continue the search for alternatives
rather than being assimilated into a frozen dictator-
ship. Unfortunately, we rarely have a nice clean
choice in this world between v-ood and Evil and the
South Vietnamese government hardly inspires the
enthusiasm generated by the late Spanish Republic.
'Yet differences of degree a^e crucial, nobody can
argue that South Vietnam is a dictatorship (its key
problem is weakness!) and the possibilities of fu-
ture growth in freedom do exist.

It is perhaps unreasonable to ask Americans to
fight and possibly die for such a tenuous objective.
As Norman Thomas pointed out in 1940, it was ab-
surd to ask Americans to die for a ^rew of Polish
fascists (he has upKlated the same speech for cur-
rent u.se). But in 1940 (as in 1966) the real issue
was not the relative immorality of the Poles (or the
Saigon regime) but the character of the aggressor.
After agreeing with Norman Thomas — and march-
ing around in anti-war demonstrations — I came
later to realize that in opposing American inter-
vention against Hitler, 1 had unknowingly counter-
signed the death-warrants of perhaps 30 million
people. I resolved that never again would I support
— to recall E. H. Carr's phrase — a "settlement of a
major international issue by a procedure of peace-
ful change" which involved turning human beings
over to a dictatorship.

This is perhap.s a hopelessly naive position for
a professor of politics to endorse, but it has the vir-
tue of simplicity in a world where complex explana-
tions are generally an excu.se for inaction or for
escaping from the starkness of reality. When all is
said and done, the fact is that Ho Chi Minh would
put me against a wall and shoot me — a sound action
from his ideological viewpoint. He would also shoot
Irving Howe, Lewis Coser, Bayard Rustin, the edi-
tors of the New York Review and of Partisan Re-
view, and any intellectual who showed signs of in-
dependent thought (he already has). At the risk
of seeming anti-intellectual. 1 long ago decided
never to give an inch to anyone who would shoot
me or my comrades. Howe and others, who en>©y
the luxury of living in a society where dissent is a
magazine and not a capital offense, seem to me to
have lost siglit of this vital human imperative.

disillusionment of the peasantry. It was, of course,
encouraged and partly organized by the North but
only conspiracy theorists can believe that Hanoi
could have .started a major civil war through the
infiltration of "agents." The revolt started because
of the endemic discontent of the pea.santry of the
South. The Viet Cong promised land, the end of
rent payment, and this is what made the peasants
listen.

6) Today the bulk of the country, outside of a
few cities, is controlled, or partly controlled, by
guerillas, con.sisting largely of peasants. A high
proportion of the population is pro-Viet Cong, an-
other high proportion is ho.stile to Saigon without
actively supporting the Viet Cong. Hardly anyone,
except the Christian refugees from the North, is on
the side of Saigon.

7) This being the situation the war can only be
"won" through the extermination of the bulk of the
population, that is by genocide. Even if we poured
1 million men into Vietnam, as Han.som Baldwin
and other unofficial Pentagon spokesmen have been
advocating, we could only hold the coastal areas.

8) The Viet Cong is. of course, controlled in
large measure by the North — if only becau.se of
its logistic dependence. Yet it is not fully dependent,
as shown by a number of divergencies in their
policy statements over the last year.

9) The North is dominated by a totalitarian

tion of its peasantry, along the Chinese model, in
the interest of rapid industrialization. Primitive ac-
cumulation by squeezing the peasantry is its major
characteristic feature. An extension of the Northern
regime to the South would probably not better ap-
preciably the lot of the Southern pea.santry in the
short run. It would sub.stitute the state taxing agent
for the private rent collector. There is a significant
long-run difference in whether extracted surplus is
consumed by corrupt officials and landowners or
goes into industrial investment, but the immediate
impact is not likely to differ very much.

10) The peasantry, as so often in history, is
hence in the middle, being squeezed and likely to
be squeezed no matter who will run the country.
But, and this is the crux of the matter, the peasants
are now being decimated physically by a war which
has gone on for a generation. What they need above
all, and the only thing they can realistically hope
for, is peace. If the war goes on much longer and if
Mr. Baldwin's escalation is put into effect, there
may be few peasants left to be liberated by either
side. . . .

11) What are the realistic bases on v/hich peace
may be achieved? The official talk about "ending
the aggression from the North" is nonsense. What-
ever the help from the North, the war is fought in
the main by a genuine peasant army of Southerners.
Hence the idea of concluding peace by ignoring the
Viet Cong and the National Liberation Movement is
at best a delusion and at worst a cheap propaganda
gimmick invented by those who wish to continue
the war. The first step toward peace must therefore
involve a readiness on the part of the U.S. to negoti-
ate with the NLF. the political arm of the Viet Cong.

12) The hope to end the war through a "neu-
tralization" of the South which would in effect mean
that it would be "neutral on our side," like India,
can no longer be entertained by a rational analyst.
It is much too late for that. Hence the only peace
aim that seems to make sense must be based on the
recognition that the game is up, that the only neu-
tralization that can now be hoped for is a "neutrali-
zation on their side," i.e., a future federatt^d Vietnam
broadly part of the Communist camp, but not
fully subservient to either Peking or Moscow. The
chances of reaching such a solution are relatively
favorable. Ho Chi Minh has been desperately trying
to prevent North Vietnam from falling under the
thumb of Peking. His position would be immeasur-
ably helped if the war ended now. The longer it
lasts, the more dependent will he become; the
stronger his position at home, the less he need rely

on Peking, that is, the higher his chances of con-
tinuing the traditional Vietnamese resistance against
Chinese domination. In a sense, there might even
be a strange parallelism between Ho's desires and
well-understood U.S. interests. As Ronald Steel has
recently written, "A strong North Vietnam stands
as a powerful barrier to China's centuries-old desire
to dominate Southeast Asia. In the effort to contain
Chinese expansion, it matters little that North Viet-
nam happens to be Communist; what is crucial is
that it is Vietnamese." And what goes for the North
goes for the South as well.

13) A "Titoist solution," the building of a fed-
erated Vietnam able to maneuver between Peking
and Moscow and between Washington and Paris as
well, is likely to hold a great deal of appeal for the
Viet Cong, for Hanoi — and for the Kremlin. Only
Peking will understandably oppose it with all its
might. But our present Vietnam policy can only
drive Hanoi and the Viet Cong further and further
into Peking's arms. It is hence not only criminal —
it is stupid.

14) But will the Viet Cong negotiate? What
about the recent rebuffs? I think that they will
negotiate provided we are willing to accept them as
a legitimate partner in negotiations. I take them to
be rational political actors, not madmen. They do
not want to "win" .so as to preside over a wasteland;
they have shown no desire for a Hitlerian Goetter-
daemnicrung.

15) I don't wi.sh to be understood to mean that
I consider a solution along the above line to be
ideal. In fact, it will not amount to a very appealing
state of affairs. But the chance to get an "ideal
solution" has long pa.ssed. The peasantry will not
be "liberated" — as .so many simple souls seem to
believe. Even a 'Titoist' regime will be an extremely
hard task master. But at least there will be peace,
and a chance, in the long run, to build a relatively
stable economy and polity. More cannot be expected
given the present constellation of forces. This is the
price for the criminal stupidity of American Viet-
namese policies in recent years.

The real tragedy is that the major price will be
paid, is being paid, by the Vietnamese peasantry
rather than by ihe McNamaras, Taylors and Lodges.

16) In the period immediately ahead, humanity
and common sense, as well as political intelligence,
require that this country declare itself unambigu-
ously for an immediate cease-lire as a preliminary
to negotiations. The U.S. must recognize the right
of the South Vietnamese freely to determine their
own future, whatever it may be, without inter-
ference from foreign troops, and possibly under

United Nations or neutral supervision. The United
States must withdraw, though this can only be a
phased withdrawal. It will have the moral obliga-
tions to evacuate the most compromised among its
South Vietnamese partisans. After this is done its
only "intervention" should be the granting of maxi-
mum economic aid to the Federated Vietnam which
is likely to result from elections whether free or
not so free. I am not a Utopian, so I won't propose
that we should then spend as much for aid to Viet-
nam as we have spent for Franco Spain in recent
years — even what we have spent on Yugoslavia
would go a long way. ...

Vietnam: A British Perspective

by Donald Hindley

There are two general and related propositions

that should be prominent in any discussion of the

war in Vietnam: first, that while war is destructive

and full of atrocities, under certain circumstances

war is preferable to the results of inaction; and

second, that to fight a limited war may be the most

effective means of preventing either a later major

war or a later series of limited wars. The first

proposition is supported by the wars against Nazism

and Fascism, the second, perhaps, by the Korean

War . . . Now to Vietnam.

The immediate purpose of the American in-
volvement in the Vietnamese war is simple: to pre-
vent a relatively easy and armed conquest of power
by the National Liberation Front which is con-
trolled by the North Vietnamese Communist Party.
But this purpose may be seen as serving far wider
ends that are both humanitarian and strategic.

A Communist .seizure of power is normally fol-
lowed by certain policies which any liberal or
democratic socialist must abhor. The most patent
are terror and murder. Millions of Russians have
suffered death or prison camps in the name of
Communism; Mao Tsc-tung has stated that one mil-
lion "reactionaries' have been liquidated in build-
ing People's China; and there are no grounds for
believing that South Vietnam would escape similar
experiences. While some Western observers point
hopefully and naively to the humane and demo-
cratic program of the NLF, which has won wide
popularity, the fate of the South Vietnamo.se under
NLF rule could be expected to follow the usual
Communist pattern. The ardor of the optimists
should be dampened by the experience of the Viet
Minh's strategy and tactics, the actions of the Com-
munist govcrnnnMit in North Vietnam (including
the murder of thousands of persons wrongly classi-
fied as landlords during the first wave of land re-
form in the North, as admitted by Ho Chi Minh),
and the .systematic use of political assassination by
the NLF. A Commimist victory in South Vietnam,
as anywhere else, would bring not the implementa-
tion but the negation of the program with which
power was achieved. In place of land equalization in
private plots, democratic political processes, the
removal of governmental coercion, and decreases in
taxation, the South Vietnamese would be subject to
land collectivization, heavy taxation, and the gray,
regimented life of the totalitarian state.

There is also a more positive aspect to the
humanitarian motivation of blocking a Communist
victory in South Vietnam or elsewhere. While the
recent regimes in Saigon and in many non-Western
states are far from admirable, to prevent a Com-
munist takeover holds open the opportunity for the
peoples of those countries to eventually determine
freely what sort of a society they want. Freedom of
choice is lost once a Communist government is in-
stalled; it may be in only temporary abeyance un-
der Rightist regimes.

It may be argued that the defeat of the NLF is
of considerable strategic importance to the United
States. Some have argued that a united. Commimist
Vietnam would turn inwards for national rccon-

slruction. On the other hand, it ought to be re-
membered that the Vietnamese are traditionally an
expansionist people, that Ho Chi Minh's party was
for years called the Indochinese (not Vietnamese)
Communist Party, and that as astute an observer as
Prince Norodom Sihanouk of Cambodia sees little
prospect for the survival of his country's independ-
ence should South Vietnam fall into Communist
hands.

Perhaps the most important strategic considera-
tion of the Vietnamese war is linked to the Sino-
Soviet dispute. An NLF military victory would give
apparent validity to Peking's assertion that the
socialist states must devote considerable resources
to aiding fellow revolutionaries in the under-
developed countries as the most effective and cheap

means of rolling back "colonialism-imperialism**
In other words, an NLF military victory achieved at
relatively low cost might persuade many Com-
munist parties to adopt a militant strategy and en-
courage China, and perhaps Russia too, to extend
aid to them. Given the weak condition of many
governments in the new states, which is the product
of factors other than the moral quality or good
intentions of their leaders, one might Ix' faced with
a series of bloody conflagrations. That is, for Amer-
ica to fight in Vietnam today may Ix^ neces.sary in
order to protect states around the world from future
"wars of national liberation ' And while mainland
Southeast Asia it.self is of little strategic value to
the United States, a war there may .safeguard vital
areas eleswhere from future attack.

I reject the argument that a united Communist
Vietnam would be an exten.sion of Chinese power.
Perhaps an NLF victory might strengthen China's
influence among Communist parties — even that
point is debatable if the cost of victory were in-
ordinately high — but a Communist Vietnam would
be one more indep(>ndent state which would in fact
act as a count( r-balance to Chinese influence within
the international Communi.sl movement.

There are, then, plausible reason.s why the
United States should intrrven(> in the Vietnamese
war. The question now arises: can the American
goals be achieved? My t( ntative answer is that the
United States cannot achieve its humanitarian and
strategic goals as far as Vietnam itself is con-
cerned, but that they might be achieved for areas
beyond Vietnam.

In order to d< feat the NLF, rath(^r than gain a
merely temporary ascendancy, the Unit(^d States
would have to achieve two conditions: the military
extinction of the NLF, and the creation in Saigon
of a rtgime that attracted the voluntary and active
support of a large majority of the South Vietnamese
people Neither condition appears likely of achieve-
ment.

The military defeat of the NLF would require a
multiplication of the present numlx r of American
troops in Vietnam and, of course, greatly increa.sed
casualties. Even an attempt to clear and hold the
heavily populated and rice surplus Mekong delta,
leaving the hills and central coast "t(»mporarily" in
NLF hands, would involve years of casualties at
least around the periphery — as the French learned
on the perimeter of the Red Riv(^r basin. Obviously,
a military victory would also require a radical
alteration in many tactics presently employed.
While destruction is an inevitable accompaniment
of war, indi.scriminate bombing, artillery shelling,
burnings, killings and torture serve to alienate the
South Vietnamese population which is, after all,
the potential clientele of whatever regime we wish
to create in the South. The torture and mistreat-
ment of prisoners only ensures that the Viet Cong
fight bitterly when cornered; amnesties, free pcsses,
and rehabilitation would be more astute.

presuming: that the American public did not react
hysterically in face of the heavy and prolonged
letting of American blood, there would still be the
problem of creating in Saigon a regime considered
legitimate by the population. Theoretically, it would
be possible to form such a regime. One could work
to ascertain the wants, aspirations and frustrations
of both the urban and rural people — and act ac-
cordingly. Governmental honesty could be im-
proved, official extortion and corruption eliminated.
The government could be responsive to, if not yet
representative of, the major political, socio-eco-
nomic, religious, and ethnic interests. And, some-
how, the government might be ar»le to avoid the
obvious stigma of being a White man's puppet. But,
to be realistic, could such a government be created
in Saigon? My strong doubts are based on considera-
tions both Vietnamese and American.

The non- and anti-Communist elements in South
Vietnam have given no indication of an abiJity to
work together or of a desire to efTect that genuine
revolution in Vietnamese society in whose name
the Communists have garnered support. Even today,
with the Viet Cong at and through the gates of
Saigon, thfre is no governmental urgency over land
redistribution, the provision of credit, agricultural
extension services, an open educational system, the
creation of autonomous areas for the hill tribes, etc.
This, unhappily, is not surprising. Many ruling
classes would rather go down in blood and destruc-
tion than relinquish their privileges. If this is the
case in South Vietnam, and we have seen no
evidence to the contrary, the United States' choices
are limited. It may wash its hands of the regime
(which means to withdraw from South Vietnam),
or it may attempt to coerce Saigon into accepting
policies we deem essential in order to block the
NLF. If Saigon resisted such coercion, then a non-

Communist South Vietnam would be a chimera,
and early American withdrawal imperative. I£
Saigon agreed, then there would be the possibility,
presuming effective military action, that a viable
non-Communist state might be created.

But is the United States likely to attempt to
coerce governments to effect genuine revolution
in the non-Western states? Past experience sug-
gests a negative answer. We recall the United
States and Chiang Kai-shek, the U.S. and Syngman
Rhee, the U.S. and the Latin American dictators. In
Vietnam, the U.S. condoned and provided the
wherewithal for the Diem dictatorship. That is, the
U.S. normally stands alongside the reactionary
ruling classes in opposition to the nationalism and
increasing radicalism of the masses. Is this align-
ment the reflection of some basic American trait?
I have no answer, only suspicions. American foreign
policy appears to be decided largely by persons of
great wealth, or by persons influenced by the very
wealthy, and in close association with military
minds. Perhaps, even probably, the United States is
inherently incapable of dynamic leadership welcom-
ing and urging forward socio-economic and political
revolution. And the Communists are eager and pre-
pared to claim that leadership.

My tentative conclusion, therefore, is that the
United States cannot achieve a permanent victory
over the NLF. This does not necessarily mean, how-
ever, that the U.S. should never have entered the
war. The rationale of this last statement is as fol-
lows: by inflicting severe damage on the NLF and
on the economies of both South and North Vietnam,
that i.s, by making the eventual NLF victory a
pyrrhic one, the United States might well dis-
courage Communist parties in other states from
either initiating "wars of national liberation" or
from rendering substantial assistance to revolution-
ary comrades.

It behooves a responsible commentator to sug-
gest a way out of the present situation. Any sugges-
tion must necessarily meet the minimum demands
and interests of all four groups involved in the war:

Get Out

by Norton Long

Those of u.s who make no claim to being expert.s have been told by Secretary Rusk that we
had better remain silent and let our more informed betters decide for us. This might be per-
suasive ill many things. However, none of us has any more right to shun responsibility for the
grave and bloody work in Vietnam than the worthy little men of Nazi Germany. We, even less,
since we are proud citizens of a democracy nnd po.ssessors of a conscience that we can entrust
to no one but ourselves. If we have not the expert knowledge to pass on issues such as
Vietnam, we have both the right and the du^y to demand that public policy be defended by
arguments and reasons that we find clearly convincing. The more serious the public policy is,
the more we need to be satisfied of the weight of the reasons for it. The cry to trust the leader
and blindly rally round the flag is a demand for the suspension of the democratic process when
it is most needed.

The Communist (-hine.se have been fortunate as if we were fated to play into their hands.
We are now embarked on the ground war on the

M

Asiatic Mainland that our generals used to oppose
as utter folly. Military experts estimate troop re-
quirements at anywhere from 500,000 to 1,000,000
men and this without Chinese or Russian interven-
tion in force. The period of the undertaking is put
at the most optimistic at five years, and more real-
istic estimates run from fifteen to twenty. The
Secretary of Defense has been proved wrong in his
prediction that each of his previous escalations
would suffice to end the business. We have been
led by degrees into a result which if faced from
the outset would have appalled us. In fact, pre-
sented by Goldwater, the nation rejected a forthright
proposal of a policy clearly entailing the present
result. The President's advisors persuaded him as
Kennedy's before the Bay of Pigs disaster that they
could produce a low budget spectacular. In each
case the experts have proved wrong, and in each
case they have failed to reconsider their premises
and have demanded further escalation. The differ-
ence is that after the Bay of Pigs disaster Kennedy
regained control from the experts and cut his losses
and took his loss of face. He preferred, as he said,
the true substance of a great nation's power to the
vainglorious pursuit of a policy of prestige. A great
power makes mistakes, but these mistakes are only
likely to prove fatal when pride makes their ad-
mission impossible. Secretary Rusk and Secretary
McNamara may not survive with their prestige in-
tact if the nation changes its Vietnamese policy, but
the nation and its President will be freed from a
costly, bloody, humanly degrading, increasingly
dangerous and worst of all. pointless war. In Omar
Bradley's words "It is the wrong war, in the wrong
place at the wrong time."

We are faced with the ultimate bankruptcy of
the Dulles version of the Acheson policy of con-
tainment. From a pragmatic and realistic search for
positions of strength with which to resist Soviet
and Chinese imperialism, our policy degenerated
into a moral crusade against social revolution every-
where. This has placed the United States in the un-
loved, arrogant and impossible position of world
policeman. A sentimental, moralizing policy made up
of public relations, slogans and cant has substituted
for any honest, realistic assessment of the nation's
or humanity's interests and our effective capacity
to promote them. A policy of tendentious moralizing
has escaped any need for calculating costs and con-
sequences. In this revivalist world Vietnam equals
Berlin and the possibility of an Asian Yugoslavia or
Poland justifies risking World War III. Indeed, it
justifiies turning over the decision of World War III
to Peking. A monstrous chicken race with Mao
controlling our steering wheel is scarcely the fruit
of a sane diplomacy.

We have fallen heir to the sorry position of the
French in Vietnam. It was they who exterminated
most of the non-communist liberation leadership. It
was they who determined that Uncle Ho would be

the George Washington of the Vietnamese war of
independence and, had they stayed in Vietnam and
carried out the Geneva agreements to hold elections
instead of pulling out, they and everyone else in-
cluding Diem and Dulles expected Ho to win and
unite Vietnam on either side of the military demarc-
ation line at the 17th parallel. To Dulles it seemed
intolerable that a new communist regime should
emerge. Indeed, Nixon had come within an ace of
persuading Eisenhower to support the French
beyond our dollars and military aid with an air
strike at Dien Bien Phu. In the shadow of Stalin's
monolithic communism, there was some reasori to
see in every increase of red on the world map a
menace as serious and of the same kind as the
spread of Nazism. It was a gamble but a promising
one to scrap the elections and support Diem in the
hope that we, a non-colonialist power, could suc-
ceed in establishing a non-communist regime where
the French failed.

It hasn't worked that way. Diem was forced by
the logic of his position to set up a tyrannical regime
alienating most of the country and compelling us
to countenance and perhaps even assist his over-
throw. We are now left with a junta of generals
isolated from the countryside like Chiang, com-
pelled to fight a guerrilla war in which we must
bomb and starve the peasants, render hostile world
opinion, show the face of the white man in a hated
role in Asia, and either turn the generals into pup-
pets or sufl'er from their intransigeance in the neces-
sary task of building popular support. Our plan, if
we have one. which seems doubtful, is to conquer
South Vietnam, seal its borders, and somehow bring
into being a regime that the people will love and
support. "To state this objective is to see its Utopian
and almost childishly naive foundation in the belief
that one's good intentions just must be feasible
either because they are good or because it is the
rich, militarily powerful United States that enter-
tains them.

It is the belief that all problems are technical
and hence soluble by the Rand Corporation that is
the special failing of the Pentagon. You can do any-
thing with military power and money if you apply
them with the right computerized technique. You
can even make peasants love you when you burn
them with Napalm, for you know that like all good
Americans Vietnamese would rather be dead than
red. That you make the choice for them simply
shows how sure you are that they would agree with
you, that at least they would if they really under-
stood the issues. The point of Napoleon's aphorism
that there is one thing you cannot do with bayonets,
sit on them, may one day penetrate the seat of the
Pentagon's understanding. Whatever localized pain
such a penetration might cause would be amply
counter-balanced by the relief of suffering else-
where.

Washington, Hanoi, Saigon, and the NLF. I pro-
pose that negotiations be held between all four
parties towards the following agreement: the cessa-
tion of fighting and terror; the formation of a coali-
tion government for the South that would include
the NLF; a severe reduction in the number of
American troops, and their withdrawal to two or
three small coastal enclaves, one of them close to
Saigon; and, though perhaps not vital, the with-
drawal of North Vietnamese troops to their own
country. The agreement could be extended to in-
clude guarantees for the independence and neutrali-
zation of Cambodia and Laos. Non-aligned states,
perhaps working through the United Nations, would
be requested to provide a large number of oflicials
to ensure that neither side employed coercion
against the other as well as to supervise elections
after a period of, say, four years. The post-election
government could request the Americans to embark,
if it so desired. Substantial American aid would be
offered to the coalition government and, sensibly,
to North Vietnam. (I believe that there is more
than one way of liquidating national enemies. War
is usually unnecessary and expensive. A superior
method is to attempt to transform present hostility
to a modus vivendi however cool at first. This ap-
proach is being applied to Russia; it should also be
used with China, Cuba and North Vietnam.)

Such an agreement would bring an end to the
war, meet what are probably the Communists' mini-
mum demands, protect the non- and anti-Com-
munists, and provide a period of free political
competition. The end result might be a Communist
Vietnam, but it would then be clearly the open
choice of the Vietnamese people, it would be an in-
dependent state (not a Chinese satellite), and it
might even be relatively well disposed to the West
(are present France-Algerian relations a valid
precedent?). The United States would not lose face.
Rather, America would be better identified with
self-determination and socio-economic change, and
it would, hopefully, proceed to convert this identifi-
cation to practice in other areas of the world.

The Domino Game

For those who make no great claim that what
we are doing is for the sake of the Vietnamese, the
most persuasive reasoning is the domino theory.
This theory says that much of Asia is made up of
teetering states that will topple if South Vietnam
goes communist. One might counter this by saying
that if all that is preventing them going commimist
is what is going on in South Vietnam, tliey are in a
sorry state. Weak regimes with no popular base and
little capacity for developing one can be propped
up for a time by American bayonets and American
aid. But how much do we gain by this? Dulles
transformed the Acheson policy of developing posi-
tions of strength into one of gathering positions of
weakness together and calling them alliances. This
global overextension of American commitments is
the same line that destroyed Chiang in China.

Some countries are going to have regimes we
will not like. A few more communist governments
may appear, but these will be of a different nature
as communism itself changes. Arab, Asian, African,
and probably South American socialism, whatever
the term socialism may come to mean, are the
forms of the future. The Great Society itself has
more in common with this than with classic capital-
ism. The Near East, Africa, and Indonesia show that

Peking and Moscow have no sure thing. Our busi-
ness is to concentrate on helping tho.se, who like
Yugoslavia and others, want to and can remain
independent. By trying to be strong everywhere, we
will end up being weak everywhere.

The policy in Vietnam is claimed to be the test
of Mao's doctrine of our vulnerability to wars of
national liberation. If it is, Mao has won. Any
policy that can force us to a major land war in Asia,
the weakening of our forces in Europe, the loss of
world opinion, the shelving of the Great Society,
the destruction of our opportunity to improve rela-
tions with the Soviet Union and exploit the ideolgi-
cal split in world communism without the loss of a
single Chinese soldier is a stunning success for the
Chinese doctrine. A few more such wars of libera-
tion in Africa and South America will bleed Amer-
ica white and get Mao home free if they do not
escalate into thermonuclear war between the United
States and the Soviet Union. As was the case with
the French in Algeria, the military when frustrated
by guerrilla warfare almost inevitably seek through
escalation the conventional war they are prepared
to fight. Thus the French sought to end their
troubles in Algeria by attacking Egypt. With us it is
North Vietnam today and China tomorrow. It
never occurs to us to ask why, if guerrilla warfare

is so effective for the communists, our side cannot
use it against them. The answer might be illum-
inating and embarrassing.

Old Myths and New Realities

For those who remember Korea, the domestic
political signs are ominous. The Republicans are
prepared to exploit the casualty lists. They are
ready to tell the people "we can win the war
quickly and without casualties through air power
and the bomb used on China." The refrain "John-
son's war" is ready to begin. Only the most desper-
ate gambler would count on Russia sitting out an
all-out attack on Hanoi or China, but politics takes
such risks.

The tragedy of our policy is that it was frozen
Into popular slogans in the Stalin era. Our con-
ventional wisdom is summed up in how not to let
Hitler do it again and how not to act like Chamber-
lain with communism dubbed in for the Nazis. This
rhetoric pours from Secretary Rusk along with Mr.
J. Edgar Hoover's doctrine of the world communist
conspiracy. Neither Mr. Rusk nor Mr. Hoover have
caught up with the fact that communism now exists
in nations, not nations in communism, that the
world church of communism is irreversibly split,
and that our policy is one of the few things left to
hold it together. To regard Ho Chi Minh as a Hitler

Reflections on the National Interest

In the Vietnam War

by Henry David Aiken

As I write, the headlines have it that steel goes up five dollars over the President's pro-
test, that five minutes after the "merry makers" ushered in the New Year at Times Scjuare,
Michael Quill called a subway strike in New York City that will create the greatest crisis in
New York's history ... so it goes, ami so it goes. Six thousand miles away young Americans
who cannot get a deferment and who, in many instances, cannot even vote are fighting a non-
war against a phantom enemy in "defence" of an unreal nation. Are we .serious? Ami, if so,

to what realizable end?

terms of the self-interest of a group but in moral

Arguments based upon the national interest
have in the nature of the case only a contingent
authority over our wills. For it is always a ques-
tion whether the national interest, supposing that
it can be determined and widely agreed upon,
ought to prevail. None the less it is olten instruc-
tive to inquire what, in a particular circumstance,
a nation's interest really is. And so I propose here
to set out the conclusions I have reached regard-
ing the American national interest in the non-war
in Vietnam. It should be added, before doing so,
that there are nations and nations: genuine na-
tions that answer to the common concerns of their
peoples, and factitious nations that are created at
a peace conference by other nations; exemplary
nations in whose survival all mankind has an inter-
est, and renegade nations that ought to be dismem-
bered once and for all; great nations that are for
practical purposes unassailable and little ones in-
capable of elementary self-defense. How one con-
ceives America's national self-interest depends on
how one conceives this nation. What the national
ir.terest of these States is is not written into the
heavens, and I as well as Lyndon Johnson or Dean
Rusk may have a hand in its definition.

Let me observe, to begin with, that we are, com-
paratively speaking, a rather middle-aged nation,
with old political and social institutions, an un-
common national origin, a peculiar geographical
location, and a highly ambiguous place among the
nations of the world. Taking all this and more as
being at once our history and our destiny. I pro-
pose to define the national identity, and hence the
national interest, in terms of it.

In greater detail, on the negative side, our his-
tory is the history of a people which, while fancy-
ing itself as representing the land of the free, plun-
dered and murdered the original inhabitants of
this continent: this is why, unlike the Latin Amer-
icans, we are not part Indian and without a sizable
Indian population. We are an ex-slavc-owning peo-
ple, and although we fought a war (in part) over
the issue of slavery, we have never been able to
accept our negro population on terms of full ecjual-
ity in matters of responsibilities and rights; the
consequence is that we are a deeply guilty nation,
self-divided, and confu.sed. We are also, accord-
ingly a hypocritical nation. This point should
never be forgotten in thinking about our national
interest or our dealing with other nations. Few
nations have a greater capacity for self-deception
than we have. We have fought a number of wars,
in particular the Mexican and Spanish wars, that
show us capable, on occasion, not only of bad er-
rors in judgment, but also of aggression and bad
faith. We have rarely been invaded, and this fact
makes us a very shallow people when it comes to
understanding war and its consequences. We have
little experience of exigencies which are written
indelibly into the histories of nations like Ru.ssia,
France. Poland, and China. We do not know deeply
what we arc doing to the people of Vietnam and why
we are viewed with such horror by many peoples
even within the non-Communist orbit. In sum,
we have no experience of limitation and hence no
sense of the urgent need for self-limitation. We
have immense expertise, but little knowledge,
good nature but little compa.ssion. We are not, in
short, an imagainativc people, for we have never
needed to be so.

On the positive side, we arc a nation that origi-
nated in and from a revolution. And we represent
the possibility of a just and wise revolution, a rev-
olution which does not end in dictatorship. The
American Revolution in one sense, defines our
national interest, from the beginning, not only in

terms. From the beginning, the idea of morality in
government has been written into our "constitu-
tion" (in Aristotle's sense of the latter term). We
are, in some ways an exemplary nation, with ex-
emplary political and social institutions; we are
committed, in principle at least, to a rule of law
and (which is not precisely the same thing) a law
ol justice and equity; from the time of Jackson,
we are committed to policies and practices of ever-
increasing social equality, of shared wealth, of
broadened humanity. We have achieved, to a con-
siderable extent, the values of a welfare state,
without losing our liberties, including especially
xenophobia, our parochialism, our priggishness. We
are a land for the uorooti'd and for the alienated:
for Jews, Poles, Irish and the rest. We are also a
semi-melting pot in which one can still distinguish,
and see the point in distinguishing, the borseht
from the pasta, the clam chowder from the mulli-
gan stew. We are a nation committed to the gen-
eral enlightenment of our peoples, and hence to
free public education for citizens. We are a land
for the young. We are, greatly, a land of poets,
artists, singers, writers. We are a land of inven-
tion, of science and technology, a land of incredible
promise for the minds of men. Finally we are a
generous land, gradually outgrowing our ancient
xenophobia, our parochialism, or priggishness. We
begin to belong, as participants, lo the world. And
we contribute, even if all too often, neither very
wisely nor well. Finally, and not least, we are a
strong nation, rich in resources, able to do what
and as we desire. Indeed, we are so strong that
we can afford to withdraw from ill-considered ven-
tures without loss of prestige or material power.
We are perhaps the most unthreatened nation in
the history of the world. We have no problem of
internal subversion, and our disaffected minorities
may still hope to improve their lots without de-
stroying the political system.

"Yankees, Come Home**

All things considered, then, I think that it is
very plain that we stand to gain nothing, militar-
ily, by a "victory" in South Vietnam, and to lose
nothing by a withdrawal. On the contrary, for all
our power, we are wasting it in Vietnam, and stand-
ing a chance of being drawn into an endless, ex-
pensive, debilitating land war with a power that
we cannot defeat by conventional means. Politi-
cally, we lose little or nothing, vis a vis "com-
munism", by withdrawing. Again, on the contrary,
if we withdraw the poly-eentrist tendencies within
the communist world will develop and proliferate:
China, very likely, will be contained in Asia by
the Asians, including Asian or partly Asian nations
that are communist. If we withdraw, our own
political institutions will be rehabilitated, for we
will be able to reduce an immense military estab-
lishment Mhich now needs watching: as never be-
fore. Our democratic processes will automatically
be strengthened by a withdrawal. As things now
stand, the strain of war and perpetual "present",
but wholly unclear and infinite danger make full,
plain-spoken critiri.^m increasingly diflirult, and
mutually respectful and confident debate between
majorities virtually impossible. Yet without mu-
tual respect, and without open criticism and de-
bate that are assum(>d to have a legitimate func-
tional relationship lo national decisions and polities,
"democracy" becomes a mere formalism and "con-
sensus" itself a term of oppression and hostility.
Our government is becoming increasingly isolated
from the people, and especially from the very
groups which a democratic system is meant to pro-
tect and to serve; the poor, the young, the minor-

and North Vietnam as analogous to Nazi Germany
is even more ludicrous than Eden's equation of
Nasser and Egypt with the same hob|>:oblins. To
regard llo and North Vietnam as merely the agent
of Mao is to disregard their existence long before
Mao came to power.

The best hope of peace in the world and the
restramt of Communist China's incendiary ambi-
tions is cooperation between the United States and
the Soviet Union. The fruits of that cooperation
were abundantly shown in the handling of the
India-Pakistan war and the discomfiture of the
Chmese. Only a bubblehead would find communism
a free man's dish, but only a hammerhead would
deny that world communism has changed and refuse
to act accordingly. President Johnson is reputed to
have said the State Department hasn't had a good
idea since the Marshall Plan. Perhaps the reason
for this is the failure to understand the difference
between foreign policy and public relations and the
unwillingness to abandon slogans that have been
sold.

There is reason to believe that President Johnson
is getting disenchanted with his experts and, like
Kennedy, may even decide to do his thinking for
himself. If so, he may tell Secretary McNamara
that Ford was able to phase out the Edsel and that
this technical expertise might well be applied to
Vietnam.

ity groups. In a word, we .stand a real chance of
losing our "free society" through jittery, ill con-
sidered attempts to .save it from phantom enemies
on the other side of the globe. Our economy, ]n)w~
erful as it is, is now in danger of ii -flation; if we
withdraw, this tendency may be checked. Also
our resources may be used, les.s marginally than
at present, for the benefit of disadvantaged peo-
ples both at home ami abroad, and the war against
poverty may be renewed in earnest. As a culture
and as a civilization we stand to lose incalculably
by continuing the war. A withdrawal, and a con-
sequent reduction of the size and importance of
the military establishment, would mean the pos-
sibility of a renewal of our free science, of our
hard-pressed educational establishment, of our ar-
tistic and nufsical possibilities. But. as 1 have said,
our national interest also has a moral aspect. We
are committed to ideals of justice and f re< dom
and general welfare. The weight of the present
war, like the weight of all wars, falls heavily and
unjustly upon the p<.or and the unquick. Tin" dan-
gers of this war are not faced by the college^ stu-
dents, but, on the whole, by preci.sely tlie p<ople
who are most disadvantaged. The war. being a
bad and a confused war. leaves us as a people with
a bad conscience, self-divided, alic^nated from other
nations, including our allies. We, who should be
the light of the world, are becoming a nation of
warmongers, of killers, hardened to the suffering
we cause both elsewh(>re and at home. Ia'\ us
openly admit our mistake before it is too late Our
national ii.ltrest, as an exeinpl;iry nation. deriK'^rfs
our ce.s.sation of hostilities and our prompt with-
drawal from Vietnam.

In sum, I can see only honor, increasing strength,
and iiireasing well-being lor all from a cessation
of hostilities. A continuation, or sprt>ad. of the war
will mean death and destruction, debilitation, and
the gradual transformation of a fre(> people into an
armed camp with a coi stitutional facade. Once
more, then, how can 1 fail to join the cry: "Yan-
kees, come home!"

NEWMAN CLUB

Bethloham Chapel and the
Newman Club will sponsor a
weekend of Christian inquiry
on February 19 and 20. Under
the direction of Jesuits of Wes-
ton College, the program will
be open to all Brandeis stu-
dents.

In addition, Schnitzer has
announced several new agree-
ments with the administration.
One allows students to take
fresh fruit desserts from the
dining halls. Formerly, those
students caught doing so were
fined the price of an entire
meal. In spite of this penalty,
the practice was still reported-
ly widespread and the rule was
never stringently enforced.

In another new decision, a
representative of either the
Dean of Students Office or the
residence staff will be required
to accompany B & G officials
on all room inspections for
damages. In the past, many
complaints have been lodged
against the way in which room
damages were assessed.

Precedents and Publicity

SBR, according to Schnitzer.
has been getting quite a lot of
publicity over some of its re-
cent decisions. The right of stu-
dents to remain silent under
questioning by the administra-
tion, affirmed by SBR in No-
vember, has become the focus
of much attention and contro-
versy in legal circles. It has
been viewed critically by a
number of "conservative"
judges and became a topic of
discussion at a recent meeting
of judges in New York, accord-
ing to a Brandeis alumnus now

Dept of Theater Arts
Delays Grad Pi^m

President Abram Sachar announced last week that
the Graduate Program in Theater Arts, scheduled for
establishment in September, 1966, would have to l>e post-
poned for an indefinite period. The program, which waa
to have culminated in a Master of Fine Arts degree had
been announced by the Graduate School earlier this 'year

When questioned about the posti)onement of the i)roI
gram President Sachar said, ''In as much as a commitment
tor a well-established Theater Arts Graduate Program will
involve very much heavier expenditures than foreseen it
has been necessary to postpone the opening of this grad-
uate area." ■

Funds Problem

Both President Sachar and
Dr. Harold Weisberg, Dean of
the Graduate School, stressed
that the major difficulty arose
in providing funds to students
accepted into the Theater Artg
Graduate Program. Dean Weis-
berg said. 'The major problem
was one of providing fellow-
ships for the 20-25 graduate
students who would have been
involved in the program." He
noted that in the Graduate
School as a whole, a very large

number of students are on fel-
lowship.

Dean Weisberg said that al-
though many inquiries had
been received by the Graduate
School concerning the program,
relatively few formal applica-
tions had been made previous
to the announced postpone-
ment He mentioned that two
of these applicants have since
been accepted by other gradu-
ate schools.

Faculty Expanded

The Theater Arts faculty was
expanded this year to provide
for a full utilization of the
Spingold Theater Arts Center
and as a nucleus for a Theater
Arts Graduate Program. Dr.
Edwin Burr Pettet, Chairman
of the Theater Arts Depart-
ment, stated that at the time
these appointments were made,
he was "unrjer the impression
that a Master of Fine Arts Pro-
gram was expected in Septem-
ber. 19G6."

President Sachar was qiio.s-
tioned about the u.se that will
be made of the new Spingold
Theater Arts Center and of the
enlarged Theater Arts Faculty
now that the Graduate Pro-
gram has been fmstponed He
replied: "Let me give every a.s-
su ranee that we will have a
high level theater arts produc-
tion program next year with-
out jeopardizing the undergrad-
uate program." Dr. Pettet gave
this propo.sal his "enthu.sia.stic
endorsement." Mr. Carnovsky
.said that ho would be hapnv to
take part in such a program
and wa.s looking forward to the
establishment of an actual
graduate program.

"Not Surprising"

Dean Weisberg noted that
the postponement of the Grad-
uate Program "should not be
that surprising." Dean Wei.s-
berg continued, "Although this
postponement won't stimulate
larger growth of the Theater
Art.s Graduate Program, you
don t know just what the effect
of the postponement will be "
He remarked that the Ameri-
can Civilization Graduate Pro-
gram had also been postponed
before it was finally estab-
lished, and the volume of appli-
cants had not suffered because
of the postponement.

Science Quad Dehnts

Postponements

Buckets catch leaking water in new science quadrangle.

A series of minor problems,
ranging from leaks in the ceil-
ings to delays in installing fix-
tures, has caused postponement
of the opening of several facili-
ties in the Gerstenzang Sci-
ence Quadrangle. Although de-
fects of this sort reportedly
are to be expected in almost
any large-scale construction
project, they often take time
to trace down and correct.

In Gerstenzang Science Li-
brary, located just under the
plaza, several leaks have devel-
oped in the ceiling. Tliough not
of a major nature, they report-
edly cannot be traced until af-

ter the snow on the plaza roof
melts. Opening of the main lec-
ture hall in the plaza has also
been delayed, due to a need for
rearrangement of the seats
and to lighting problems.

None of the postponements
is expected to seriously affect
teaching or research work.
Most of the other buildings in
the quadrangle are operating
normally. Classes scheduled to
meet in facilities not yet opened
have been relocated. The sci-
ence library will remain in its
present quarters in Kalman.
Delays of several weeks, how-
ever, are expected in some of
the openings.

Silence is Leaden

At th« st^rt of last term, President Sachar endorsed
a policy of fostering what he termed student-administra-
tkm dialogue on problems affectin^^ the University as a
whole. For the first few weeks of school, the pro-am
seemed to be well under way. Dr. Sachar met with the
Student (V)uncil, with class officers, with the freshmen,
and with a general conclave of student leaders. Many prob-
lems were discusser! and debale<i in a freer, more pro-
ductive atmosphere than ever before.

That was last fall. It has been three months since the
last student conclave was held with Dr. Sachar.

While the meeting-s at the beginning of the year may
have answered some <iuestions, they certainly raised
others. Many new problems have i*rison over in the past
thi-ee months and are crying for attention as well.

More importantly, we wish Dr. Sachar and the Ad-
ministration in general would come to the students to
srek our opinions on impending decisions in which a stu-
dent viewpoint might be helpful. A dialogue implies a
vital cross-current of ideas, not a question ami answer
>)eri(><l or a debate about previously determined ix)licies. It
is precisely this aspect of dialogue which has chronically
been lacking at Brandeis, even when student convocations
with the Administration are held.

If we are to lielieve that Dr. Sachar genuinely wants a
student-^idministration dialogne, we must see a genuii-^e
attempt on the part of the Administration to realize this

Justice Lives

This is the second issue of The Justice that has ap-
peared during the last two months. This infrequency has
been the cause of many rumors and (luestions. Some of
these rumors attribute our absence to student council's
sus))tMision 4)f The Justice, U) administrative rancor, or
even to the supposed eml>ezzlement of our funds by a
former editor who rejxirtedly flew to Switzerland.

Unfortunately nothing this interesting has happened.
Our publication schedule has l>een disrupted by not only
the usual winter run of vacations, exams, ami intercession,
but also by the changeover of the editorial board as well.

It is true that we will operate this semester on
diminished funds, not because of embezzlement, but be-
cause of the encroachment of old debts on our Council
allocation. Because of this, we will publish less frequently
this semester than previously, and may even print four-
pago Justices. In spite of all this, however, we report that
Justice Lives!

We Like It I

With the specter of **modest tripling" hanging ever
the heads of next year's freshman class, the administra-
tion has tixken an absolutely necessary action by providing
new living facilities to be ready for the coming school year.

Without the new housing space, the sitoiation in
freshman housing next year would be chaotic. Simply,
the r(M)ms in both North and Hamilton are too small to
a<le<iuately house three individuals. For the freshmen in-
volves! in the squeeze, there would be no solace in the fact
that the tripling was "modest." The Justice, therefore,
congratulates Dean Morrissey for his foresight in allevi-
ating a potentially serious problem.

What concerns us is the status of those groups that
are unable to get into the new dorms or East. It is easy for
Mrs. White to say, "Let them worry about that." It is not
so easy for the students who are getting a biid deal. Ad-
mitte<lly, there is a great volume of administrative drud-
gery involved in making the system work. Similiarly, there
have been instances of cliques taking over floors to the
detriment of those outside of the groups. Yet, the bene-
fits of group living are worth keeping.

Therefore, we consider the tentative compromise,
which would limit the number in groups to six students
and the number of groups per floor to two, totally reason-
able. We expect the tentative plan to be a4k)pted and hope
that it succeeds in providing a n>eans of preserving the
group living principle.

On Appearance

To the Eld i tor:

1 often escort visitors on the
Braxideis campus. On two re-
cent (unprompted) occasions
they remarked unfavorably on
the appearance of the Brandeis
girls as compared with those
on other campuses. It is un-
doubtedly true ttiat — as a gen-
eral rule — the girls here "dress
down". I shouldn't care to spec-
ulate on the high purposes that
5»eem to require this aesthetic
and social sacrifice. "Whatever
noble and achieved thert^by, its
benefits are certainly confined
to ttic girls themselves. If aes-

fore the moral ones, what about
the morally dubious aspects of
this sort of social selfishness?

Mr. Cohen's *'Cold Eye"
analysis in the last issue of
your newspaper gets my coW
shoukler. He «iisctis5>cs the
juko&i iunporUnt issue at Bran-

deis, and he only obscures it.

Is the faculty mdivisibJe?
Jeff's tactical analysis a.vjumes
that it acts as a unit. He as-
sumes that when an issue ar-
rises. The Faculty decides
Whether it should be opposed
or conceded and then follows a
consistent plan of action. The
facts disprove this, e.g. the
Swiggart Committee and the
Student - Faculty Educational
Policies Committee. These ex-
amples illustrate that (1) The
Faculty doesn't prejudge every
issue, and <2) Tlie Faculty has
powers of self-criticism.

Individual faculty members

cause they want to, not because
The Faculty has decreed that
any **small <?roup of students"

assuming that the Faculty Sen-

cised locally, i e. each depart-
ment controls its own matters.
Students must work with in-
«lividuals. N<^gotiation mtist be
at the personal level Power
politicking doesn't work.

Saying that *^the adminis-
tration and faculty do not give
a damn about fairness and
justice in asserting interests
which oppose the student in-
tecests" is slander, b«ra of er-

roneous generalization.

1 turn to my central con-
cern with Mr. Cohen's article:
his view of the students. Stu-
dents have the power only "to
assert their interests iji the
face of faculty and administra-
tive opposition but not within
the established institutions of
communication and negotia-
tion." This is true in many
cases.

Jeff's article contains its
own critique. He says that for
interested students "few
meaningful alternatives are
open." Yet he suggests no new
alternatives. He abdicates his
responsibility as a student
leader, the responsibility to
show the way.

The question is, how can this
"power of assert ioji" be con-
verted into a "power of
action"?

Students must start imitat-
ing Jeremy Bentham. Not by
avoiding pain, but by convert-
ing theory and vague gripes
into specific proposals. H the
students' proposals are intel-
ligent and full of common
sense they can overpower
many faculty and administra-
tive proposals which often
aren't intelligent or full of

Copley: An Artist Develops

Sward, however, gave us,

poetry, a presentation of his

matrix, his poems succeeded.

By this I mean that he filled

from there directs the actions
of the body. He insisted that
mental activity be viewed as a
function of the brain's opera-
tion. Protestant clergymen and
other defenders of the moral
order interpreted this as a de-
nial of the soul's independence
of the body, and consequently,
of its immortality. This one
aspect of Lawrence's work be-
came a cause celebre among
the English educated class; so
great was Lawrence's notoriety
that he was forced to withdraw
his book from publication and
resign liis professorship. Three
years later, a pirated edition of
the Lectures came out. Law-
rence sought an injunction to
prevent its sale, but was denied
the protection of the copyright
laws on the grounds that his
work was blasphemous. The
Lectures became a best seller,
going through nin« editions.

It is inevitable, as Miss Good-
feld conceded, that theological,
moral, and social implications
will be drawn from scientific
ttieories. The real issue is
whether it is desirable. It
seemed that Miss Goodfeld
would have us believe that sci-
entific issues should not be in-
vested with extra-scientific sig-
nificance because scien-tific de-
bates outside the scientific com-
munity hinder the progress of
science. This may be true in
some cases, but one can think
of more important considera-
tions. If men by nature re-
quire a moral foundation for
their activities, that founda-
tion should be based on the
best knowledge available to
them. Thus they must look to
the sciences before forming a
world view. We must reluc-
tantly accept the sufferings of
an occasional Lawrence if the
only alternative is the isola-
tion of science from the rest of
life. Such isolation can only
narrow the scientist's concep-
tion of his role and impoverish
the intellectual dimension of
tile layman's existence.

With this one exception,

GT&E blankets the world of electronics.

GT&E makes no effort to compete
with nature's awesome forces. But
we do the next best thing. We take
the reason for lightning and har-
ness it to everyday tasks.

In that way, we've helped to
make the lowly electron mighty.
And our own capabilities more ex-
tensive.

In fact, we've made electronics
an important force in our business.
And branched into virtually all
directions electronics would take
us . . , communications, radio, TV»

stereo phonographs, automatic
supervision and control, and ad-
vanced military systems.

GT&E member companies, such
as Automatic Electric, Lenkurt
Electric and Sylvania, either man-
ufacture the complete equipment
or the electronic components from
which they're built. And at the
same time serve as major suppliers

to other electronic manufacturers
and the communications industry.

You might say that, because of
electronics, GT&E's possibilities
are endless. That's the way it looks
from where we sit.

If you're interested in getting a
complete picture of GT&E as it is
today, ask your Placement Direc-
tor for a copy of the booklet that
tells the story. Or write General

But this involves a lot of

Basketball

<CoBtimied trmm Page 8)

It is taken for granted that
there will be character differ-
ences within a team; bat these
are always to be left in the
locker-room. This rule is not
followed here at Brandeis.
Each week brings its new set
of character conflicts, and they
come to the surface when the
referee blows his whistle and
begins each game.

National Basketball Asso-
ciation star, K. C. Jones, will
soon be mentor of the Bran-
deis five. As a ballplayer, his
defen.«!ive prowess is only sur-
passed by his toughness and
alertness. I only hope that he
can instill the basic fabric that
has made his team, the Boston
Celtics, perennial champions
of the pro - lea^ies and is
needed so badly here at Bran-
deis.

the same rules as all other
doimitories.

Also, at the meeting, Dean
Morrissey qualified his earlier
stiitements about the possibil-
ity of what he had termed
"modest tripling." He declared
1h.it "if a 'slight excess' of
fu.vlimen were to be admitted
next year, this would consti-
tut-r the 'modest tripling'." Mr.
Kollx^in. however, stated that
any tripling to be done would
be done in areas built as triples.

Morri.ssey also announced a
n< w policy with regard to group
living, stating that "from now
on. the formation of groups is
going to be limited to the areas
Milled for it." Although there
was some student opposition
expressed, Mrs. Vivian White,
Administrative Assistant to the
Dtan, insisted that the policy
V'V implemented, stating, "If it
liappens to inconvenience a few
^tudents, let them worry about
that." However, some modifica-
tions were later made in this
policy when the procedures for
loom drawings were discussed
in detail.

Room Drawing

At a meeting last Wednesday,
alltnded by Dean Morrissey,
Housing Committee Chairmen
M;irlys Moses, '67, and Allen
Zerkin, '66. Student Council
President Frank Bloch, '66,
Council Treasurer Brian Mar-
cus, '67, and Council Repre-
sentative Marty Pernick, '68,
the tentative procedures for
handling room drawings were
established.

Drawings for the apartments
will take place on March 7,
followed by, on 3 other days,
drawings for singles and two-
man suites, for groups in East
and Ridgewood cottages, and
for regular doubles in the other
quadrangles.

Room choice priority will, as
in the past, he determined by a
combination of seniority and
lottery number. Seniority will
be determined solely by the
year of issuance of diploma,
with three points given to
members of the class of '67,
two to the class of *68. and one
to the class of '69. Lottery num-
bers drawn on one day will
not be usable in any other
room selection.

A maximum of six students
per group was established for
all dormitories with the excep-
tion of East and Ridgewood
cottages. No more than two
groups will be allowed on any
©ne floor.

Dean Morrissey told the stu-
dent representatives that a 1 1
unauthorized room changes
would be sternly prevented. In
all cases, after names are writ-
ten on the room registration
sheets no changes of rooms or
groups will be allowed until
November. Then, changes can
only be made by payment of a
fee. Morrissey claimed that un-
authorized room changes
"create a degree of chaos
which, due to the increased
complexity of the housing situ-
ation . . . can no longer be
tolerated."

A full explanation of the en-
tire housing procedure will be
published in two parts by the
Dean of Students Office and
distributed through the mail-
room.

on February 12 by the score of .

It was an exciting week for Brandeis athletic supporters, as the Judges, after a
disappointing outing against Vermont, parlaytnl clutch shooting and hustle into a 73-
71 victory over the Tufts' Jumbos. A twenty foot jump shot, out of the right corner,
by Richie Kpstein, at the buzzer, provided the winning basket as Brandeis gained its
first home ccJurt victory in two years.

momentum. The Judges moved
the ball well against the Tufts
zone and were able to get the
ball to open men throughout
the game. Midway through the
first half, Brandeis' sliooling
went completely cold as the
Judges went over four minutes
witliout scoring a point, falling
behmd 2:j-29.

At the 11 minute mark, how-
ever the Judges opened up.
Long one h uiders by Steve
Ka(/m in and Tom llaggerty
knotted the .score and then sent
Brandeis ahead. The lead see-
sawed for the rest of the half
until tfie last m i n u t e when
Brandeis turned three Tufts'
errors into six quick points to
take a 'il-'M lead at halftime.

Tufts came out in the second
half and quickly went back
into the lead, 40-39. From here
out, however. Brandeis made
their hoops when they counted
most, to olVset the little nun in
the striped shirt who missed a
gre.tt game.

stein and Mario Gil, the Judges
finally found themselves with
a fast break which paid otT in
many valuable baskets. Steve
Katzman led Brandeis scorers
with 22 points and played a
fine floor game. It remained
however, for Epstein to provide
the key points triggering pan-
demonium on the court.

Catamounts Edge Judg:es

On the preceding Friday, the
Judges dropped their tenth
game to an aggressive UVM
team. 81-72. Exhibiting the
satne defetisive weaknesses as
in previous losses, Vermont
continually scored on fast
breaks. Some fine work under
the boards by Catamounts' cen-
ter, Milt Goggins, wlio never
seemed to be blocked out, also
hurt the Judges.

Brandeis. with Steve Katz-
man and Barry Zimmerman
controlling the play, held a
slim lead of three points at the
ten minute mark of the first
half. However, at this point,
Tom Haggerty picked up his
fourth personal foul and Ver-
mont's board crashing tech-
nique began to pay oil. Four
quick break.s, coupled with de-
fensive pressure forcing Bran-
deis errors, spelled the differ-
ence as UVM built up a five
point lead. The Judges pulled
themselves together somewhat
and managed to cut Vermont's

Holy Cross forfeited the first
two weight classes giving
Brandeis a ten point advan-
tage; however, the forfeit to
Mike Lerman, wlio was pre-
viously undefeated and un-
scored upon, may have been
costly, as this was the second
consecutive match he had won
by forfeit, and thus he lost

Neil Weiss, who normally
wrestles at 12.3 pounds,

the gap to four points, 66-62.

Once again the Brandeis de-
fense got caught on its heels as
two UVM players reversed
their men for layups. Brandeis
worked hard but simply
couldn't catch up. as Vermont
eased in with an 81-72 victory.
Defeat in New York

Coming o(T an exciting vic-
tory over Tufts, the Judges
headed South to face C. W.
Post and Pace in New York.

On Friday, Brandeis encoun-
tered a constant full-co'irt
press and were massacred by
an aggressive Post squad, 105-
67. Steve Katzman was the sole
stand-out for the Judges with
good floor play and a scoring
output of 22 points.

Saturday, the Judges wore

weaker Pace
squeaker, 93-

stantly hustled, which is a
tribute to Coach Le Blanc. But,
notwithstanding Richie Ep-
stein's triumphant shot, Bran-
deis basketball leaves a great
deal to be desired.

Webster's New World Dic-
tionary defines "basketball" as
being, "a game played by two
opposing teams ..." To call
Brandeis' varsity a team would
be a misnomer. In my four
years here at Brandeis — the
first two as an active member
of the varsity squad — I have
never seen five partici{)ants so
.set against helping each other.
If a player is gracious enough
to pass the ball to an accom-

plice, the bookmakers imme-
diately start raising the
odds against his over seeing
the ball again on that same
play. Screens, a basic pattern
to ease scoring opportunities,
are set up as frequently as the
Miraculous Mets win baseball
games.

What is actually missing is
an intrinsic knowledge of how
to create a winning team. Al-
though each ballplayer will
say how much he wants to win,
he allows himself to accept
the existing lack of team play.
I sincerely believe that most
of the ballplayers here at Bran-
deis do not realize that they
would actually go a great deal
further if they played as a
team, and stopped trying to
overcome the problem through
five earnest, but individual,
efforts.

against Dennis Lamour of Holy
Cross. Rich Fertel of Brandeis
then lost a decesion to Walter
George of Holy Cross.

Ron Ratner, previously un-
defeated, pinned his opponent
although he was at a weight
disadvantage. In the final
match John Cipora was pin-
ned by the Holy Cross heavy-
weight bringing the fiiial
match score to 25-18 in favor
of Brandeis.

The Brandeis wrestlers then
traveled to Rhode Island Col-
lege, where they lost what
may have been a key meet of
the season. Stu Greenbaum
suffered a defeat in the first
match; then Mike Lerman, in
his first wrestling in over a
month, lost a tough match to
Ed Gomes of RIC.

Neil Weiss and Joe DeMuro,
both wrestling again above
their weight classes, scored
victories for Brandeis. Marty
Fenster then was pinned by
Joe Langne giving RIC a seven
point edge at this point. Ron
Ratner extended his winning
streak to eight consecutive
victories by scoring an early
fall against his opponent.

Rich Fertel, after wrestling
well for two periods, was
caught and pinned in the last
minute of the match; Dave
Safir, filling in at the last mo-
ment for the injured Joe Shul-
diner, proceeded to score an
impressive victory in his first
varsity match. With only one
match left in the meet Brandeis
was down by four points. Al-
though John Cipora wrestled
very well and managed to win
a decision, Rhode Island Col-
lege won the meet by one
point.

With four meets remaining
in the season, the team can still
salvage a winning sea.son. The
ability and drive is present,
but one important thing that
is missing is campus support.

Seeley Questions Grades
As Draft Status Criterion

Sociology Department Chairman John Seeley, in an appeal this week to the stu-
dents and faculty of Brandeis and Harvard, seriously questioned the use of jrrades in
determining the draft status of college students, and has launched a series of discus-
sions and meetings to find an appropriate course of protest.

The appeal, made in the form of an oi)en memorandum, was presented to a stu-
dent-faculty committee of the Sociology Department Friday afternoon, for discussion

and suggestions. All seven fac-

be made to meet the needs, both academic and foolish to look for one. Council must act in the

and personal aspects of the student body. This
basic concern minimizes emphasis on efficiency,
administration of tasks, and past experience;
and properly so, for alone these are little help
in reaching out to the individual. Without a
sensitivity to overall student life, these skills
will not be successful in making each student
feel a part of a larger community, a community
set in a life situation involving individual inter-
action. Council must fulfill its responsibility to
create more a human and intimate environment.
Flexibility is a mandatory quality in a Coun-
cil president, for flexibily within the system is
possible. In working with th€ SAF it is axi-
omatic to say that enforcement must be strong
for the system to function properly. However,
it is another thing to take such a rigid position
on this point that realistic concerns are over-
looked. In voting (1/7) for enforcement of the
distribution of the Justice to SAF people only,
Brian disregarded ii few unavoidable facts: it
is impossible to keep the Justice away from

Constitution on tenuous grounds of indiscretion.
One must realize that there is a large portion of
the SAF-paying students which never attends
beer parties or Kutz dances. The "orgy" was a
function which many found enjoyable, especi-
ally those who are not attracted by any of the
programs of the Social Committee, which re-
ceives 12% of the entire Council budget.

These inter-student aspects of Brandeis life
are important, but equally significant are stu-
dent relationships with faculty members. Bran-
deis is fortunate to have an excellent faculty.
They can be respected as scholarly intellectu-
als and sought out as responsive human be-
ings. Council should speak to the faculty Senate
about fostering closer individual ties between
these two segments of the Brandeis community.
Just as we have shown through EPC that stu-
dents are seriously concerned about the aca-
demic learning process, we must show we are
also interested in gaining the benefits of the
faculty's knowledge outside the classroom. One

Strike Out

One week ago. Student Council voted unanimously in favor
of a resolution expressing support for the striking faculty of
St John's University in New York City. The strike began over
Rix weeks ago. wh( n the St. Johi.s administration fired over
thirty faculty members, refusing even to give specific reasons
for its action.

The Council resolution demands reinstatement of the fired
professors, administrative recognition of the teachers' right to
organize, and the organization of a faculty senate which would
remove from administrative hands specific responsibilities for
academic policy.

The situation at St. John's is plainly the result of the un-
checked growth of administrative power, to the exclusion of
student and faculty power, even in those areas, such as academic
policy, where students and faculty have both direct experience
and a direct interest. This overgrowth of power has resulted in
a total di.«iregard for the opinions of individual faculty mem-
bers, and in the prevention of the effective organization of
Jaculty opinion.

The Brandeis Student Council has done rightly in de-
nouncing the results of the overgrowth of administration power

at St. John's, and in endorsing ways and means which would anwu^t ^i

EPC Course Critique, and the student-administration dialogue
referred to last week all refer to this question, at Brandeis.

We congratulate Council on its correct appraisal of the
situation at St. John's. It logically follows that we would like
to see an even more vigorous approach, from a student point
of view, to the situation at Brandeis.

Draft Craft?

Dr. John Seeley, Chairman of the Sociology Department,
has issued a statement calling for proposals for action to oppose
the use of grades as criteria for military subscription (see story,
page 1). We strongly support him and the other faculty mem-
bers who have signed his statement. It is clear that a professor,
for both moral and educational reasons, should not be put in
a situation where he has the power of life and death over his
students, and that to put him in such a role could destroy the
teaching relationship entirely. The spectre of an entire student
body "brown-nosing" madly in a fierce competition for the life-
saving exemptions, a competition in which Mj are bound to
lose, is also hardly a prospect to relish.

However, we note that Dr. Seeley's statement is not writ-
ten from the point of view of the victim. It must be borne in
mind that local draft boards in many cases may be all too
willing to draft college students indiscriminately. Mr. Seeley's
proposal would indeed remove the faculty from the moral stig-
ma of participation in conscription; at the same time, however,
it would by removing current criteria without substitution give
local draft boards even more freedom than they now possess.
In this way, action based on Dr. Seeley's objections could very
conceivably lead to an increase in the indiscriminate employ-
ment of college students in the war.

Therefore, we suggest that opposition to selective service
should be diverted from opposition to this specific provision
©I the system to a consideration of the system as a whole.

However, we join Dr. Seeley in urging that faculty and
students discuss this matter, and come to the March meetings
with suggestions for a more viable plan of action, which would
satisfy these criticisms.

It's That Time Again

Friday is election day. Everyone on campus should know
this by now. It is a cliche to say get out and vote — but past
turnouts have been bad, especially from off-campus. Enough.

We urge you to consider your vote carefully. The exec-
utive officers of Council must be able if it is to function effec-
tively. The President is especially important. He must be a
leader. He must have insight into issues and be responsive to
student opinions and interests. Find out how the candidates
stand now, and in the past. The need for strong leadership
should not be underrated, nor should experience. Students
should consider both factors. Both candidates have served
©n Council, both have taken their stands here and on their
voting records. On this page are statements by the two can-
didates for President. There is an analysis of their voting rec-
ords on page three. Thursday there will be speeches in Nathan

Brion Marcus

The Student Council has for many years con-
cerned itself exclusively with two types of
issues: its institutional relationships with ad-
ministrators and faculty, and its function as the
sole source of extra-curricular activities on
campus. In my view this role is far too limited
and completely ignores much of the potential
which student government at Brandeis pos-
sesses. The Student Council must become pol-
icy-oriented in the broadest sense of the word.
It must cease to be merely a social and financial
organization and transform itself into a delib-
erative body which is truly concerned with the
substantive issues at Brandeis. Having been
both political and practical for the past two
years, and having achieved a reasonable posi-
tion vis a vis faculty and administration, the
Council must begin to consider problems far
more vital than concerts, dances, and budgetary
matters. The Council has consistently failed to
do this, and has left the important policy issues
to its committees and individuals. One need
only take a quick glance at the Council minutes
to verify this contention.

I view the role of the Council in a very dif-
ferent context. In the first place it must start
to represent student opinion: it must concern
itself not merely with voting on this or that
proposal, but rather with seeking out the prob-
lems that really concern students and then
fully exploring possibilities for change. Stu-
dent opinion, nebulous as it may be, must be
crystallized, understood, and carefully consid-
ered. The Council can well afford to think
idealistically about its aims and objectives, for
in fact it is the only group on campus which
will do so. Our task must be to raise the ques-
tions which are important to us and the Univer-
sity, even though we may not have definitive
answers to all of them. It is the responsibility,
and, I would say, the obligation of the Councii
to pressure both faculty and administration to
seriously consider these questions.

In the area of educational reform, the Stu-
dent-Faculty Educational Policies Committee,
which was created this year, must begin to con-
front the major questions that concern the stu-
dent body. What indeed is the role of the grad-
uate student instructor at Brandeis — is he
meant to be a replacement for faculty or a/i
aide? The questions of course load, general edu-
cation, and calendar revision must be explored.
An appropriate mechanism must be found for
a student role in the area of tenure decisions.
Class sizes, even at the junior and senior levels,
have skyrocketed in recent years; are we go-
ing to allow the notion of the **small, inti-
mate University on the hill" to be abandoned?
These are some of the important questions that '

(Continued on Page 7)

must be raised concerning academic life, and
we must constantly pressure the faculty to
bring reality more in line with the Brandeis
ideal. But representing student opinion and
thinking idealistically about its aims and ob-
jectives is not enough. With proper organiza-
tion and direction, the Council can, at the .same
time, fulfill its third major responsibility — that
of meeting the day-to-day needs of the student
body. There are many matters which dem;nid
immediate attention, and the Council's obliga-
tion will not be fulfilled if these areas are ne-
glected. With the creation this year of the Stu-
dent Affairs Committee, we have for the lirst
time succeeded in establishing a means by
which student life can be substantially im-
proved. But a committee such as this will be
of little real value if the Council fails to put
before it well-researched proposals which ac-
curately reflect the concerns of the student
body. The "automatic late" policy for women
is a modest but concrete beginning. The entire
question of infirmary and security procedures
must be thoroughly investigated by the Coun-
cil and brought to the Student Affairs Commit-
tee for action. There is just no reason why
students in a school of this size must wait two
and three hours to sec a part-time doctor. '» le
incredible lack cf a campus communication
system — working intradorm phones in every
women's dormitory and the creation of a free
interdorm phone system must be corrected. In
areas such as library procedures and hours,
parking privileges, and recreational facilities,
it is the oLligation of student governireni to
bring to the Student Affairs Committee coher-
ent proposals for immediate change.

While the Council can be effective in these
joint committees, it can and must work as well
in its areas of independence to restructure ex-
tracurricular life so that it accurately reflects
the social realities expressed by the student
body. No organization can expect to be all
things to all people, but Council can attempt
to reflect the needs and wishes of as many seg-
ments of its constituency as possible. For the
past two years the Council has given limited
funds to each dorm for their own use under
the assumption that the dorm is the viable so-
cial unit at Brandeis. While somewhat success-
ful, this program did not go far enough. The
Council must take the lead in organizing Quad
Councils which could assume much of the re-
sponsibility for their own social program. Stii-
dent Council must encourage small-group initi-
ative; it can no longer be a substitute for it.

While these proposals provide guidelines for
a fr/w of the problems which will face student
government in the coming year, proposals arc

On March 17, 1965, a pro-
posal was made to request that
the responsibility for the col-

motion argued that it would

initiate proceedings to ratify
the motion as a constitutional
amendment. Until the amend-

lishment of a fee of $29.95 for
non-SAF students for those
events for which no fee had
been previously set. The argu-

could be gotten from the Ad

generally feared a loss of stu-
dent independence and the pos-
sibility of Administration in-
terterence with the fee once
collected.

The measure was adopted.
Kornrich voted against, Marcus
voted in favor. (Tlie measure
was subsequently defeated,
when Dean Morrissey refused
to guarantee that the Admin-
istration would not interfere
with the spending of the fee if
tlie Administration were to col-
lect it.)

Also, on March 17, the Com-
mittee for an Ideal Campus ap-
plied for status as a club of
the Student Council. Those fa-
voting the motion maintained
the legality of its constitution.
Those opposing the proposal
claimed parts of the constitu-
tion were unusual and objected

cus against. (The amendment
has yet to be ratified by the
student body as a whole.)

Justice

On December 8, a motion
was introduced calling for
withdrawal of Council funds
from the Justice, pending an
investigation by the Council.
Those in favor charged the
Justice with violation of the
SAF rules, with fiscal irrespon-
sibility, and with constitutional
irregularities.

The motion was passed with-
out opposition..

On January 7, after an in-
formal compromise had been
reached on SAF and finan-
cial problems, a proposal was
made to allow free distrii>ution
of the Justice to all students,
whether or not they had paid
the SAF. Those in favor cited
the alleged impossibility of en-
forcement, the high cost of at-
tempted enforcement, and the

Enforcement

On May 5, a resolution was
introduced, reading, "Students
who have not paid the SAF
will not be allowed to attend
most SAF sponsored events.
For the remaining events, they
will be allowed entrance only
on payment of a designated ad-
missions fee." Those in favor
cited the need to enforce SAF
regulations in order to encour-
age increased payment of the
fee. Those opposed felt that
students should not be kept
from any activity without hav-
ing a chance to pay for it.

The measure was adopted.
Kornrich voted in favor, Mar-
cus against. (The resolution
was subsequently ruled uncon-
stitutional by SBR.)

Course Critique

On May 12, a motion was
presented opposing the issu-
ance of a course critique over
the summer vacation. At the
time, the CIC was planning to
prepare such a critique for dis-
tribution in September. Those
in favor of the motion held that
the time factor would not al-
low a long enough period for
the proper liandling of the task.
Those oppo.sed claimed that it

Police (or any police-
man) bears peculiar re-

Where both magnitude and
proximity are involved, action
is not to be evaded except at
the price of demoralization.

The new "selective service"
deal adds, I believe, to the ele-
ment of proximity for profes-
sors. The prior situation was
very roughly such as to make
University students generally
exempt from military conscrip-
tion as long as they were stu-
dents in good standing. (Even
then instructors would be mar-
ginally implicated by moving
persons into and out of that
status). The new situation
roughly means that all students
who fall into some portion of
the lower tail are to be differ-
entially exposed to draft risk.
(They may, even if in the risk
group, be exempted in virtue
of a test performance that pur-
ports to order "capacity," those

of a given sort upon him.
(Thus, "You are doijig C-work

man" are now functional equiv-
alents).

I shall note in passing,
though it is not the main thrust
of my argument, what this
does to the teaching relation-
.ship. We have abandoned "Do
good work or risk a whipping."
We now have "Do good work
or risk a killing — of or by
you."

It is also not clear to me en-
tirely— though this is not cen-
tral to my present concern —
that Professors have any more
right to "publish" grade data
about students than they have
to publish other things they
learn about students in class or
office hours or in "informal
interaction." (Or, incidentally,
than students liave similar
rights to publish about profes-
sors). . . . we are thus now a
much more intimate part of the
selection system (if we con-
tinue to grade or otherwise

publication by informing some-
one, such as a Registrar, who
does publish. We are perhaps
as proximate as whoever in

September 21, a resolution

Amendment

November 15, in respon.se to
an SBR decision striking down
the Couacil's motion of May 5, Diamandopoulos said that "any

course has no coordination.
The lecturer and each section
leader actually teach separate
courses. "As a device for co-
ordination," said Dr. Diaman-
dopoulos, "I concentrate on the
same book this semester,
Aristotle's Metaphysics." Dr.
Diamandopoulos added, "I'll
try to persuade the philosophy
department to think out seri-
ously the nature, subject mat-
ter, and method of an intro-
ductory philosophy course. "He
would like the department to
decide on an "historical and/or
systematic approach, followed
consistently."

In discussing the deficiencies
of a large lecture course, Dr.

Conception of the Good

Dr. Diamandopoulos said
that his conception of a good
introductory philosophy course
includes covering the subject

"relevant to the general educa-
tional posture of the Univer-
sity," and providing "honestly pHcity in this use of us (Be-

for himself, the professorial
consensus or preponderance of
opinion of all professors for
each of them, or the opinion of
each student involved — or
some other opinion, e.g., "the
University's" or "the nation's."
I am inclined to dismiss all
opinions as relevant except as
matter for the informed and
sensitive conscience of every
professor in his alonene.ss. The
opinion of such aggregates as
"the nation", "the University,"
"the professorate" is, I think,
non-existent except as a name
for a Gallup Poll (dubiously
meaningful) average. (Even, if
it were unanimous. I do not
think it would have a proper

not cnougli. The President muni be committed
to making Council truly meaningful at Bran-
dcis. and this will require four main requisites:
commitment, creative determination, proven or-
ganizational ability, and experience in getting
things done.

For the past three years I have been involved
with the activities of student government in
various capacities, serving on such committees
as Housing, Orientation, and Budget. This year,
as Student Council Treasurer, I was directly
responsible for the successful collection of the
Student Activities Fee, and instituted the only
comprehensive reform of Council financial op-
erations in the past decade.

But experience working within the Council
is not in itself suflTicient: the President must
have a thorough understanding of the com-
plexities of the decision - making process
throughout the university, and he must know
the points of access wliich can be most bene-
ficial to student interests. As a member of the
Executive Board this last year I have partici-

pated in negotiations with every major ad-
ministrator and was directly responsible for a
substantial grant of funds from the Administra-
tion wtifcch allowed the Brandeis Civil Rights
Group and the Mental Health Association to
actively continue their work. I am firmly con-
vinced that without the knowlede:e of how
things get done at Brandeis, a President can-
not hope to provide elTective leadership and
will have little chance of successfully repre-
senting the interests of the student body.

My commitment, then, is to leadership which
will be both responsible and responsive in pur-
suit of well-defined aims and objectives on the
part jof student government. I have chosen to
run for President of the Student Union be-
cause this is the center of action and resiK)nsi-
bility. We can no longer afford the luxury of a
Council which operates merely through force
of habit rather than vigorous, directed effort
from the President. The President must be
deeply concerned and involved with every
phase of Council activity. He is the only in-
dividual who can speak for the entire student
body in University affairs, and he must pro-
vide the direction for student activity and the
stimulus for student opinion. In short, the
President must constantly work to insure that
students' interests are being served throughout
the Universitj^ With your support, this will be
my primary objective in the coming year.

Dr. Seeley declared that his
view did not necessarily in-
volve condemnation or support
of either the war or the draft,
but was only objecting to the
specific involvement of college
professors in the selection

The memo outlined several
possible courses of action, in-
cluding the suspension of the
grading system, or the grant-
ing of uniformly high grades.
However, Dr. Seeley empha-
sized that he had issued a call
for suggestions, not a set meth-

my colleagues in the student
bodies and on the faculties. I
would like them to take coun-

across as either heroes or vil-
lains: Averell Harriman is th^

Bender, the CIA man behind
the Bay of Pigs, the chief
heavy.

The Bay of Pigs aflfair makes
fascinating reading. One gets
the feeling that it was about
to be avoided time after time.
If only Schlesinger had more
forcefully expressed his doubts;
if both the New Republic and
the New York Times had not
patriotically held back articles
that would have exposed the
government's intentions. If . . .
if. Anyway, Kennedy learned a
lot about himself and his job
from the experience, and
henceforth looked twice before
listening to an "expert."

That Schlesinger's accounts
of the Kennedy sense of humor
will live longer than Adler's
little compilations (The Ken-
nedy Wit, More Kennedy Wit)
is undoubtable. Context makes
all the dilTercnce, and from
Schlesinger emerges a man
who is intelligently funny and
not merely clever. When John
Kermedy was asked how he
intended to announce his
brother's appointment as At«
tor ney General, he replied,
"Well. 1 think I'll open the
front door of the Georgetown
house some morning about
2:00 a.m., look up and down
the street, and, if there's no
one there, I'll whisper, 'It's
Bobby.'" When the time for
announcing the appointment
came and the brothers were
alxjut to face the press, the
President-elect said, "Damn it,
Bobby, comb your hair." Then:
"Don't smile too much or
they'll think we are happy
about the appointment."

A riihmetic

(Continued from Paqe *')

S/C f V = 1/(C/S-|-V/S) ifS/V
rises then V/S falls and if V/S
falls then C/S must rise faster
then the fall of V/S to lower
S/C plus V. Why it should do
this is not determinable from
the ratios). Thus Marx simply
fails to establish the necessity
of a falling rate of profit. An
essential contradiction is not
demonstrated.

Thus we .see that the labor
theory of value generates some
serious internal inconsistencies,
thereby reducing its anal.vtic
usefulness in understanding the
historical process of capitalism.
This is not to say that we can
ignore* Das Kapital. It is cs.sen-
tial. however, that we be wary
of Marxist terminology in try-
ing to understand past and pres-
ent economic phenomena. We
must not forget that what Marjt
saw in England is characteristic
of all industrial growth wheth-
er under capitalism or social-
ism. When an underdeveloped
economy seeks to develop a
capital ba.se many people will
have to remain poor for a long
time so that returns to produc-
tion can be reinvested into capi-
tal (not consumption) goods to
further develop the base. In
economic jargon, there must be
a high rate of saving. This is
what happened in England dur-
ing the Industrial Revolution,
in Russia under Stalin and what
is happening now in China. It
is a testimony to Marx's genius
that he described the capitalist
system in a dynamic and all
embracing historical dimension.
Yet he simply misread the fu-
ture. Wages, output, and profits
have all risen simultaneously.
Thus some of the basic Marx-
ian tools are inadequate. We
should not analyze the complex
process of automation in terms
of — Down with labor time — •
down with prices — down with
profits — crisis! Or ( if o n e
wishes to prove the opposite).
Capitalism prevents automation
because a reduction in work-
ing time means a reduction in
surplus value, which means a
reduction in profits, a statement
mysteriously defied by the fact
that both wages and profits
have risen, the working day hag
been reduced, both due to tech-
nological advance. Capitalism
does face significant challenges
in automation and in the eco-
nomies of affluence, but it is in-
correct to distort their meaning
and possible solution.

Letters The Magus

To the Editor:

It is paixifully clear that the
criticism of Brandeis publica-
tions and public performances
which regularly appear in the
Justice are themselves in need
of serious criticism. I do not
save back issues of the Justice
and thus lack the material
needed to conduct a .general
criticism of all reviews appear-
ing this year. I shall therefore
restrict my remarks to the re-
view of Lear which appeared
in the last issue.

I will not enter into a gen-
eral attack on the validity of
Mr. Gay's criticisms of the va-
rious performances, as my
opinions are no doubt as sub-
jective as his appear to be.
With reference to my own bias,
let me assert that my own
criticisms of the performance
parallel his in many respects.
What is most offensive about
this review is the manner in
which the criticisms are pre-
sented. The review is filled
with noxious, unnecessary wit-
ticisms displaying the utmost
poor taste, one of the worst
being that the performance "is
so bad that it cannot be even
called a failure." The criti-
cisms are intentionally over-
done for their sensational ef-
fect; they are more appropriate
for a Broadway review in a
mass circulation newspaper
than for a paper whose limited
circulation is intended for an
intelligent, critical university
populace. The review is a rude
affront to that intelligence. It

to develop a system enabling students to par-
ticipate in tenure decisions in the future.

The new Student Affairs Committee is an ex-
cellent idea, yet it seems to have done little in
the way of examining those areas of student
life in which problems do exist. There is a need
for the revision of the entire on-campus parking
setup. Something must be done to stop B & G
from charging exorbitant prices for room dam-
age. SBR has taken several definite steps in
ameliorating the dictatorial rules of the dining
halls; Council should help if not lead in this
effort. Redecoration of dorm lounges is another
problem to be considered. The Committee must
discuss important specific problems of Brandeis
life, and the student members must then report

back to Council for action on specific proposals.
If the Committee is going to waste its time on
ineffectual measures when there are so many
important aspects of life which need improv-
ing, it might as well not exist.

My year on Council, my contacts with the
administration, and my participation on the
faculty-student committee last spring have given
me a working knowledge of the administrative
process. Council's position is strong, its pro-
grams viable. The SAF system now has a firm
base and only needs improvement. I want to
emphasize again that the existence of a satis-
factory system does not negate the need for
creativity, for new programs, for flexibility, for
openess to change. Council must not avoid the
major concerns of the Brandeis student body,
whether in academic, social, or dormitory life.
We must be guided by a positive conception of
what the student needs and how Council shall
meet these needs.

posed viewed SAF payment as
payment of a subscription, felt
a strong enforcement policy es-
sential to the SAF system, and
discounted the poll as not rep-
resentative.

The motion was adopted.
Kornrich voted in favor, Mar-
cus against.

On January 10, a new Jus-
tice constitution was submitted
for Council approval. Those in
favor of adoption claimed it
corrected all the major flaws
in the previous constitution.
Those opposed wished to see
less power given the editors,
and a more structured system
introduced for handling edi-
torial board meetings and let-
ters to the editor.

The constitution was accept-
ed. Kornrich voted in favor,
Marcus against.

ica were to let Asia go its own
way, as Mr. Oglesby seems to
suggest, it would have to con-
sider the possible actions of
China as well as internal revo-
lutions. No doubt Mr. Oglesby
could have discussed these
problems had he so desired;
the point is, he chose not to.
Also, his statements concerning
American corporate interests,
with their allegedly great in-
fluence upon American foreign
policy, would have to be ex-
plained much more fully if
they are to be taken seriously.
Nevertheless, Carl Oglesby
is a man who should be lis-
tened to. His comments should
especially give pause to those
who say that the war should be
expanded until won, and those
who insist that it is Hanoi, and
not the National Liberation
Front, that holds the key to
negotiations.

Wrestlers Upset Br
Boston State Squad

Nothing seemed to go right for the Brandeis wrevstlers
last Tuesday when a weaker Boston State College team
handed them their fifth defeat of the season; however,
the local grapplers did manage to look impressive in their
victory over a flu-weakened University of Hartford team
last Saturday to bring their record to 5-5.

man, who sunk four straight | of the season.

BSC, Stu Greenbaum was pin-
ned by Jim Hefferman, Neal
Weiss decisioned Russ Kaplan
8-2, and Mike Lerman pinned
Paul Hogan to give Brandeis
an 8-5 lead at that point. In
ttie 145-lb. class, Joe DeMuro
executed a fireman's carry
takedown and went right into
a pinning combination; with a
nearly certain pin at this point
he was suddenly put on his
back by Al Lewando of BSC
and subsequently pinned.

In the next match Marty
Fejister of Brandeis scored a
takedown and was riding his
opponent well when he was
reversed and pinned by Tom
Shaughnessy giving Boston a
big seven point lead at t^is
point. John Ferris of Brandeis
was then pinned, stretching the
Boston lead to 12 points.
Decision in Final Match

Ron Ratner kept up his win-
ning ways by scoring a/i im-
pressive first period fall
against Tom Driscoll of BSC;
Rich Fertel then went on to
pin Jim Divver to cut the Bos-
tojn lead to two points and
placed the final outcome of the
match in the hands of the
heavyweights. Though John
Cipora wrestled well he was
pinned by Gerry Brown, thus
giving Boston a 25-18 victory.
In two eKhibition matches Tim
Laughlin and Dave Safir, both
of Brandeis, pinned their op-
ponents.

Though Brandeis was nearly
assured of a victory last Sat-
urday when Hartford was
forc€S[l to forfeit four matches,
the te»m left little daubt in
any one's minds that the out-
eomfe would have been differ-

ent by winning four out of the
five remaining matches and the
single exhibition match of the
meet.

Four Receive Forfeits

Greenbaum, Weiss, E>eMuro
and Ferris all received forfeits;
Weiss, however, wrestled an
exhibition match against Al
Yates, who was academically
inelegible, and scored a de-
cisive 7-2 victory. Lerman,
wrestling at 137 pounds, de-
cisioned L a n d e n McDonald
9-0; at 160, Ratner extended his
winning streak to ten by pin-
ning Steve Thompson of Hart-
ford.

Rich Fertel then pinned
Andy Ryglisyn, bringing the
meet score to 31-0 at this point.
Dave Safii, wrestling his sec-
ond varsity watch of the sea-
son, was pinned by Tod Quirk
giving Hartford a lone victory.
To add a touch of finality to
the meet John Cipora scored
another fall to give Brandeis a
36-5 victory.

Reese Optimistic

Coach Ted Reese, who has
devoted much time to making
the wrestling team a winning
team at Brandeis, feels '*. . .
that any effort that I made was
well worth the while. The team
as a whole has shown a lot of
drive and the all important
desire to win. Next year there
is no reason why we cannot
have an excellent record;
while we are only losing one
varsity member we may be
able to pick up a few fresh-
men."

The season is not over yet.
There is a home meet Sat. as
the varsity takes on Yeshiva in
the final meet of the regular

Although most people are concerned with the short-

equal importance must be given to long-term matters:
What type of opposition are we going to face in the fu-

the process of being reached, concerning the calibre of
future Brandeis athletics ? Will we have "big time" basket-
ball teams? Should we compete with Harvard for the
"scholar-athlete?" Or shall we content ourselves with a
small-college schedule which permits us to maintain the
strictest academic standards for all students?

Trailing by ten points with
less than two minutes left to
play, the Brandeis basketball
team put on a devastating:

^ Last week the Brandeis Varsity five dropped two more games to bring their sea-
son's total to a dismal and disappointing total of 2-14. Wednesday the team was de-
feated as expected by Assumption, the number one small college team in New Eng-
land, 104-57. Saturday, the team dropped a 93-73 decision to Colby, who only the night
before had been defeated by Tufts, over whom Brandeis holds one of its precious vic-
tories of this season.

The Assumption game highlighted the glaring deficiency of team play which haa
plagued the Brandeis five throughout the season. Playing against the finely coach-^d

completely inept and totally
helpless.

Assumption Scores at Will

Controlling both the offensive
and defensive boards, the As-
sumption squad was able to
fast break at will as the Bran-
deis club was given a thorough
lesson in both passing and the
art of team play. Assumption
scored almost every time they
had the ball and six men scored
in double figures. The score at
the half was 55-25 and the final
difference would have been
much larger had not the As-
sumption coach mercifully sub-
stituted freely throughout the
game.

Brandeis Shows No Offense

The absence of a Brandeis of-
fense was as evident as was its
lack of defense. Playing five
games of one-on-one, the Judges
were unable to penetrate the
switching man-to-man defense
of Assumption. They shot an
anemic 26% from the floor
while throwing the ball away a
total of 26 times. Enough good
things cannot be said about the
Assumption team while enough
has already been said about the
Brandeis group.

Colby Rips Brandeis

The Colby game was evi-
denced by much of the same in-
epitude which Brandeis had
displayed in its previous en-
counters this season. The first
half saw both teams play sloppy
basketball and ended with
Brandeis trailing 40-32.

Colby jumped off to an early
lead of 8-0 and stretched this
to 17-6 before the Judges could
score with any consistency. Nu-
merous errors and too mucti
individual showmanship hurt
Brandeis im|neasurably, for
Colby was anything but sharp
and could have been taken with
respectable basketball. The
Judges did show flashes of bril-
lance, especially in its hustling
backcourt; but once again these
were individual rather than
team efforts and these could not
be converted into a winning re-
sult.

Colby Pulls Away

The second half found Bran-
deis continuing its pattern of
errors and individualism and
this time the alert White Mules
took advantage of almost every
Brandeis mistake as they built
their lead to as much as 25
points, finally winning by 20,
93-73 Pete Swartz led the Col-

must be considered indicative
of scheduling for the next few
years.

This still leaves two cate-
gories open: some expansion of
the athletic program so as to
compete on equal footing with
the Ivy League, or maintenance
of the status quo. Apparently
someone, somewhere, favors
the first possibility. As the stu-
dent body was not consulted
before the hiring of K. C.
Jones, one must assume that
Joseph Linsey and other sports
conscious donors decided that
some steps should be taken to
help us compete with the Ivy
League for scholar-athletes (or,
at least for athletes). K. C.
Jones' name can surely be
counted on to lure some
talent in Shapiro Athletic
Center. The increasing num-
ber of Ivy League foes on
our varsity and freshman bas-
ketball schedules likewise in-
dicates a trend towards this
new competition.

The question to be asked,
therefore, is: Does the trend
towards athletic competition
on equal footing with the Ivy
League (including, of course,
competition for scholar-ath-
letes) fit into the design of

Brandeis today? Is Brandeis in
a situation where it can gain,
or at least not lose, by trying to
establish itself as an athletic
peer of Harvard.

To be in such a situation as-
sumes that increased stress on
athletics will have no detri-
mental effects on Brandeis'
academic standing (or, at least
on its academic reputation.)
Can Brandeis accommodate an
expanded athletic program
without significantly effecting
the composition of the student
body? There is, most assuredly,
a limited number of scholar-
athletes who presently satisfy
Brandeis' admissions qualifica-
tions — which considers high
school athletic participation on
the par with editorship of a
school paper, or some similar
activity.

Perhaps the Ivy League col-
leges have successfully assimi-
lated their athletes into the
academic community. But that
doesn't imply that the same
thing will happen here. The
smallest Ivy League school
(Brown) has more than twice
the male student body of Bran-
deis from which to build teams.
The largest enrollment allows
the Ivies to accept students
with special qualities — in-
cluding athletic talent. If Bran-
deis wants to maintain a
diversified student body, then
it can't put undue value on any
single talent, least of all ath-
letics. The road which Bran-
deis athletics is on at present,
I fear, may lead to just that
end.

Three Meetings Held on Draft;
Grad Students Pass Resofution

A dispute concerning the use of grades to determine deferments for college students erupted
at Brandeis last week. Meetings of students and faculty held Wednesday to discuss the situation
received national publicity.

The graduate students approved two resolutions, in the form of petitions, which denounced
the use of grades to determine draft status. The two other meetings reached no agreement but
decided on further meetings this week. The faculty will meet again on Wednesday. A joint

Monday, February 28. Marcus,
the former Council Treasurer,
had 552 votes to 514 for Korn-
rich.

The election was originally
scheduled for Friday, February
25, but University exercises
were cancelled because of a
snowstorm, and the election
was postponed until the follow-
ing Monday.

Phil Saperia, '68, was elect-
ed Vice-President of Council.

Seeley Draft Statement
Draws Wide Response

By RIC USLANER

Colleges across the country have taken an interest in the
statements issued by Professor John Seeley and seven other
members of the Brandeis Sociology department opposing the
use of grades to determine draft eligibility.

Dr. John Weaver, vice president for instruction at Ohio
State University, agreed that class ranking is not the proper
way of determining who should* — — —

be drafted. He called the pro-
posal by General Lewis Her-

shey to draft students in this
manner "a dangerous way to
go about it" because a student
who is low in his class at one
of the best schools might be
much higher at a school with
lower standards.

At Harvard, some members
of Students for a Democratic
Society (SDS) protested the
blue cards given them on regis-
tration day this semester which
allow, if signed, the Registrar's
OfTice to send grades to local
draft boards. They complained,
as did many undergraduates
and the Crini.son, that the cards
were not clearly worded and
that the administration showed
a "lack of candor" in the affair.

President Buell G. Gallagher
of the City College of New
York (CCNY) announced that
the college would not release
any information to the Selec-
tive Service unless specifically
requested to do so by individ-
ual students. Ernest Zimmer-
man, a CCNY official, stated
that the role of the university
is that of an intermediary be-
tween the student and his draft
board and that the university
has no right to send informa-
tion the student wishes with-
held.

CCNY faculty members had
mixed reactions to the state-

ment by the Brandeis sociolo-so.

gists that they might give
either uniformly high grades
or no grades at all. Professor
Rose Zimbardo of the English
department said that the Bran-
deis action was bold and that
she would follow a similar
cour.se of action. However,
Miss Sandra Lcvinson, a mem-
ber of the department of Polit-
ical Science and New York ed-
itor for the magazine Ramparts,
approved of the Brandeis ac-
tion, but questioned its neces-
sity. "Theirs is the kind of pro-
test that would only be effec-
tive if a large majority of
teachers in a particular depart-
ment all cooperated," she said.

Professor Seeley's counter-
part at CCNY, Sociology De-
partment Chairman Adolph
Turner, called the Brandeis
statement "a mockery of the
entire grading system." He
added, "Every teacher has a
responsibility to the students
and to the faculty to keep the
grading system meaningful."

As student and faculty pres-
sures mount, other colleges and

universities are taking stands
on the draft problem. The Uni-
versity of Michigan has hit
upon a solution which might
prove to be unique. It will
send student grades to the Se-
lective Service, but will not is-
sue reports of class standing
unless the student asks it to do

is also planned.

The meetings were the re-
sult of a letter in The Justice
on February 23, written by
John R. Seeley, Chairman of
the Sociology Department. The
letter, endorsed by seven other
Sociology professors, q u e s -
tioned the use of grades in the
determination of draft status.

The protest followed a rul-
ing by the Selective Service
System that certain college
students would have to be re-
classified and drafted in the
near future to meet manpower
needs for the war in Vietnam.
Selective Service plans to con-
tinue the 2-S deferment of
students with the greatest
academic potential.

Lt. Gen. Lewis Hershey
(Ret.), director of the Selective
Service System, announced
that class standing would help
determine draft status. Those
juniors, sophomores and fresh-
men in the lower half of their
college class during the cur-
rent academic year will be-
come eligible for reclassifica-
tion. All seniors will become
eligible upon graduation. Those
who are subject to 1-A re-
classification may also be de-
ferred by passing a national
test, to iSe administered in May
and June.

Professor Seeley argued that
the use of grades was morally
wrong, since it involved pro-
fessors in the administration of
the draft without their con-
sent. He also fell that it would
injure the academic relation-
ships of teachers and students,
by increasing the competition
for grades.

Last week's meetings re-
ceived feature coverage by the
CBS television network on
Thursday's evening news.

One of the graduate student
resolutions called upon the Ad-
ministration "to submit the
academic records of its stu-
dents only at the student's re-
quest." The motion denounced
involvement of the University
in the Selective Service Sys-
tem.

The other resolution called
on "professors, teaching as-
sistants, and administrative
officers to withhold any in-
formation about the academic
performance or rank in class

of any student," unless he re-
quests it. This resolution,
adopted by a vote of 49-43, de-
nounced the war in Vietnam
and stated that "no person . . .
should be forced to interrupt
his normal life and to risk
death in this war." It urged
people at Brandeis to "refuse
to cooperate with the draft."

About 800 undergraduates
packed Nathan Seifer Hall

not alone in this objection,
since the American Council for
Education has taken a similar
stand.

Class Standing Unfair

Morrissey also denounced
class standing as an unfair
measure of academic potential.
"The results of one semester,"
he said, "should be evaluated
cautiously." He said that at
Brandeis those in the lower
half of the freshman class of-
ten finish in the top quarter of
the senior class. He said that a
freshman needs more lime for
full academic development.

The Dean remarked, how-
ever, that Brandeis students
had "little to be alarmed
about," because of the national
test. He predicted that students
in the top schools would l>e
protected by the test, to be
given in May and June, and
that the best students on this
test would continue to receive
deferments.

Federal Law Followed

The University will "abide
by Federal acts and regula-
tions" in any case, said the
Dean of Students, and will not
withhold the grades of class
rank of students, if the Selec-
tive Service System requested
them. His personal opinion on
whether grades ought to be
used would not affect Univer-
sity policy on this matter.

President Sachar was not
available for comment on this
matter this week, since he was
not in the country. Dean Mor-
rissey said that he will return
this week. A student leaders
meeting with the President
v/ill probably be called, when
he may be questioned on these
and other matters of student
interest.

Theater

Head
Dept.

Acting Group

By LIL SOBER

In what has been .seen as a
major change of emphasis in
the Brandeis Theater Arts pro-
gram. Acting Associate Dean of
Faculty Peter Diamandopoulos
has announced the formation
of a resident theater workshop
during 1966-19G7. The group
will operate in closer coopera-
tion with the Drandeis Theater
Arts department.

The recently postponed
graduate program in theater
arts, delayed for lack of funds,
may be instituted the follow-
ing year. Dr. Diamandopoulos
said that the theater workshop
will have a nucleus of six to
eight professional artists in
residence, four to six profes-
sional technicians, and 14 to 18
special students on the gradu-
ate school level. After being
.seleC^ted by audition, they will
receive "scholarships." Al-
though the special students
will receive no credits for their
work next year, hopefully
some of them will be the (irst
students of the future gradu-
ate school. The theater work-
shop, which will present four
or five plays, will make no
distinctions between profes-
sionals, special students, and
undergraduates. Howard Bay,
who will direct it, Morris
Carnovsky, James H. Clay, and
Charles Moore will be pri-
marily responsible for the pro-

A Time to Decide

The first round of debates about the draft is over. We
applaud the organization of meetings to discuss tJiis vital ques-
tion; since Brandeis is apparently one of the first schools to dis-
cuss it, these meetings are especially important.

However, we have reservations about the course that the
first round took. First, the low faculty turnout will cause any
faculty action that may be forthcoming to carry far less weight
than it should. Secondly, it is conceivable that the injection of
the issue of the propriety of the war by the graduate students
may militate against any consensus on the draft itself. But,
more significantly, we are concerned about the circularity, re-
dundancy, and general lack of direction that characterized the
undergraduate meeting. More specific proposals are required,
in order to develop a plan of actioxi.

We suggest one course which the next meting might take.
As the news analysis printed below indicates, debate about
either the mechanics of the draft or the validity of the war is
profitless. The draft, as it exists, is fully able to rely on its
standardized test, if rank in class statistics are not available. At
the same time, ajiy selective system among students will favor
some students over others. Therefore, the meetings ought either
to be concerned with protecting all students or agree to abandon
all criteria, or accept the present system.

Lastly, any resolution that is finally adopted ought to be
put to a Student Union referendum. This referendum would
more completely represent student opinion and by dint of this,
the resolution would carry so much more weight. In view of the
fact t»iat any position Brandeis takes will immediately be
picked up by the news media, it is especially important to pre-
sent as representative a resolution as possible.

News Anolysis

A Clarification

Dob Acker

One of the most disturbing facets of the meeting of Brandeis
undergraduates on the draft last Wednesday was the lack of
direction that the debate on what is to be done about the draft
developed. Fortunately, the second round of meetings this week
gives another opportunity to forge concrete proposals on what.

if anything, will be done. ~"

However, no concrete pro- ^ There are then, so to speak,
posals will be forthcoming if four levels along which the sys-
the debate again finds itself un- tem is organized: 1) the vol-

Stars and Gripes

To the Editor:

Mr. Seeley's proposal to air
the implications of Selective
Service procedures on grading
is far too modest. It seems to
me that faculty and students
alike should consider their ob-
ligations to society, and soci-
ety's obligation to them in an
entirely new light.

Because of their intelligence
and therefore their superior in-
trinsic worth, all faculty and
students should have exemp-
tion from certain obligations.
Most students at a school like
Brandeis would cogently argue
that they entered college not
because they have been advan-
taged by this nation's economic
prosperity, but because admis-
sions offices instantly perceived
their true worth. Even those
receiving financial assistance
would dismiss as irrelevant any
relation between the country's
prosperity and the schools' abil-
ity to provide financial support.

Professors would argue more
cogently — partly because of
superior intelligence — that de-
mands placed upon them by
the nation's laws are, of course,
not applicable. To prove their
contention, all disapproving
Selective Service procedures
would be willing to submit to
imprisonment rather than sup-
port Selective Service by pay-
ing any federal taxes — income,
liquor, gasoline, cigarettes or
other taxes.

The moral implications
would become clear when
plaudits arrive from grateful
mothers, fortunate enough to
have sons too stupid to be con-
sidered college material.

Of course, every sociologist
knows that current testing pro-
cedures involved in college ad-
missions do not favor any par-
ticular class. Consequently,
those who do not go to college
are either too dull to perceive
the advantages or too stupid to
gain admission. Those attend-
ing inferior colleges are per se
inferior individuals and so are
their teachers — naturally.

What Mr. Seeley ought to
have proposed is simply this:
All faculty and students of su-
perior colleges should be issued
gold stars on their outer gar-
ments. These would easily
identify the bearer as exempt
from at least some of the laws
of the land, and the duties
thereof.

College administrators
would, of course, not be al-
lowed to wear gold stars be-
cause, as Mr. Seeley points out,
administration is far too im-
portant to be left to the admin-
istrators. Certainly, their moral
worth is questionable, since
they chose to be administrators
of their own volition.

My objectivity in putting
forth this proposal should be
unquestioned. I am not, nor is
my wife nor any member of
my family either a faculty
member or a student. I shall
not profit from this system I
have proposed one iota.

Letter to Faculty

Last Wednesday night, Feb-
ruary 2, simultaneous meet-
ings of the Faculty, student*,
and graduate students were
held to discuss the role of the
Faculty with respect to the
new draft program. The issue
was raised a week earlier
when Sociology Professor John
Seeley raised questions about
the moral justification of pro-
viding grades to the Selective
Service System without the
consent of the student in-
volved.

Meanwhile only thirty fac-
ulty members attended the
meeting in Schwartz. Althougti
the official posture of the spon-
soring body had been endorse-
ment of open meetings, the
Faculty's first act was to close
its meeting to the press. The
Justice was not allowed to re-
port, although students were
to be admitted "for their own
information." Those students
who wished to participate in
the debate, and thus attended
the Seifer meeting, had to go
uninformed, since their news
organ could not report. The
official record tape recorder

was turned off. and the student
who had been appointed by the
sponsors to photograph the
meeting was allowed to do so
only on condition that the
Faculty could control his nega-
tives.

I would ask what the
Faculty is afraid of. Could they
commit acts which would be
dangerous to have recorded on
film? Could they make state-
ments (in front of the students
they did admit) which they did
not sufficiently believe to
allow them to be recorded for
an official record? Or were
they afraid perhaps that if the
meeting went on record they
might feel obligated to do
someHiing? When Dr. Seeley
speaks of "the loneliness ol a
professor." I can't help but
wonder if that loneliness is not
self-imposed.

Certainly the thirty are to be
applauded for the interest they
showed by appearing. I would
only hope that more faculty
members will become involved
and take the lead in this issue
— not behind closed doors but
publicly.

Thank You

Dear people — students, faculty,
administration, and em-
ployees of Brandeis —
I have little idea of how to
write this lettter, for the kind
of experience I have had with
all of you does not lend itself
to formal speeches and capsule
thank yous. I only know that
all of you have been wonder-
fully and beautifully generous
towards me, in your letters,
thoughts, and gifts, I feel as
though I have been adopted by
an entire university since my
accident, and the idea that so
many people were thinking
about me and really cared has
meant a great deal. Hospital
life is slightly dull at best, and
I have been cheered enormous-
ly by thoughts of Brandeis. I'm
afraid Vm falling a bit into
easy, greeting-card phrases, so
I'll stop here. I just want all
of you to know how much this
has meant to me. I send you
an infinity of thank yous and
an eternity of love.

D. Joan Kilbourne

5. Shout your story to the hiDs,
the sands, the far-away seas.
And listen for an answer from
the winds.

1 doubt if the winds will
tell me where I can get a
challenging job with good
pay an«i pl(>nty of
opportunity to move up.

6. Oh, if that's what you're
concerned about, why not
get in touch with Equitable.
They're looking for college
men who have demonstrated a
potential for above-average
achievement. I'm sure you'd
be happy in one of the special
development programs because
the work is fascinating, the
salary excellent, and the
opportunities unlimited.

Poge Three

Meetings
On Draft

(Contvnued jrom Front Page)
simultaneously at Schwartz
Hall, was "off the record," but
students were allowed to sit in.
No resolution was passed at
either meeting. Nearly 150
went to Olin-Sang Auditorium
for the graduate student
gathering, while only thirty-
two faculty members appeared
at their meeting.

The faculty announced the
appointment of a committee
headed by Dr. Henry D. Aiken,
Professor of Philosophy, to
make suggestions for action at
the next meeting.

Professor Seeley denounced
the invasion of the University
by the draft. Likening this situ-
ation to the physical examina-
tion, he said that it would be
absurd for selective service to
use family doctors to deter-
mine if a man was fit for duty.

Many students and faculty
felt that deferments for college
students are unfair, since they
discriminate against the poor,
the disadvantaged and minority
groups. Dr. Richard Sklar, As-
sociate Professor of Politics was
typical of those who hold this
view. He said, "Universities
should refuse to be involved in
the administration of selective
service. They should not be
used as instruments to recruit
on a discriminatory basis."

Council EkcHont

Presidents Plea

Brian Morcus

This Friday, the Student
Body wil select its class repre-
sentatives to Student Council
for the coming year. I use the
word select instead of elect
advisedly. The process of elec-
tion can easily become the
mechanical process of marking
a ballot, or it can truly become
a process of careful selection
whereby meaningful thought
and discussion is given to
issues and individuals in light
of the responsibilities which
those elected will be asked to
assume.

It must be expected that each
candidate in each class has
made a personal commitment
to working toward a Student
Government that will be both
effective and reflective; a Stu-
dent Government that is dedi-
cated to facing both the pre-
sent and future needs of the
Student Body. This is the com-

mitment that must be made by
any person who wishes to
serve his class and University
in Student Government, and
this is the commitment that
must be demanded by the
Brandeis student electorate.

The Student Council's area
of involvement has greatly in-
creased^ in the last two years,
but this^ is, in effect, only a be-
gining. If the Council is to be
relevant to the changing and
expanding needs and desires of
the Student Body, it must con-
tinue to widen its area of con-
cern. But if the Council is to
meet this obligation, it must
have personnel who not only
attend meetings and vote, but
who are capable.

The choice is yours on Fri-
day. I ask every student on
this campus to carefully con-
sider the merits of each candi-
date and then cast his vote ac-
cordingly.

Analysis

(Continued from Page 2)

are rank In class and the Selec-
tive Service exam. Those who
object to rank in class as a cri-
terion either point out the non-
uniformity of the intellectual
standards among different col-
leges, or do not wish to be in-
volved in the selection of men
for war and death. The stand-
ardized test satisfies the former
point; as to the latter, with-
holding of class rank from draft
boards will only increase reli-
ance on the test. More general-
ly, the status of the university
as an only partially exempt
group insures that some stu-
dents will be favored over oth-
ers.

At the other extreme, many
oppose the war itself. I only
point out that, as long as this
opposition proves ineffectual, it
offers little comfort to draftable
students.

This leaves only the mid-
dle two levels as meaningful
grounds of action. First, one
may oppose selection itself.
I suggest that at Brandeis,
where only half a dozen stu-
dents were drafted during the
Korean War, such idealists will
be few and far between.
Second, one may oppose the
only partially exempt status of
the university, whose opera-
tions are certainly impaired by
the fear of elimination, and by
the elimination itself. There, it
seems to me. is the true point
of departure for this week s
meetings: efforts ought either to
be made to protect students as
a whole, or not to be made at
all.

Lerman, DeMuro Lead
Wrestlers in Tourney

Coach Ted Reese's injury-
riddled wrestling team scored
something of a moral victory
by finishing in other than last
place in both the freshman and
varsity classes at the New Eng-
land Intercollegiate Wrestling
Championships held March 3-4

at MIT.

In the freshman division the
Brandeis grapplers came in
fourteenth out of the more than
twenty members schools com-
peting. Mike Lerman came in
fourth; he won his first match
to advance to the semi-finals
where he was defeated. Then
in the consolation match for
third place he dropped a close
overtime decision. Tim Mc-

Laughrin, who has just taken
up the sport, won his first
match to advance to the quar-
ter-finals where he was finally
defeated.

The varsity team did not do
quite as well as the freshman
wrestlers but did manage to
finish in about the same posi-
tion in the tournament. Joe
Demuro advanced to the quar-
ter-finals where he was stopped
in a close decision. He was then
defeated in the quarter-final
consolation matches, but this
earned him fifth place in the

WPI Topples Judges in Finale;

The Brandeis five ended its season on a disappointing -note Saturday night as it fell be-
fore the superior play of Worcester Poly tech, 108-72, at the victor's court. Despite the 3-16 over-
air record, there were signs of future good tidings as the Judges demonstrated improved

(double-team him, leave some-
one else open) could do no
wrong. And Rovner's rebound-
ing, if and when Suffolk got
a shot off, against 6'6" odds
just added insult to injury.

Equally important, if not
equally impressive, was the
job Dave Jacobson and Tommy
Haggerty did early in the
game, when their boardwork
helped keep Brandeis ahead at
halftime, 54-52.

The high calibre basketball
displayed in the Suffolk game
was extended through the
first half of the Norwich con-
test. With Steve Katzman and
Barry Zimmerman popping
from outside, and with Dave
Jacobson playing aggressively
underneath, Brandeis took a
47-40 halftime lead.

Norwich Presses

But the Norwich squad gave

the Judges some of their own
medicine by opening the sec-
ond half with a successful
press, and used the acquired
momentum to fast break their
way into the lead. Brandeis
couldn't handle the driving
tactics of Bob Byrne, Pete Stu-
kowski, and John Aja, and the
latter were able to break the
game open as our big men
collected fouls.

The W.P.I, game was an un-
happy tale of a mismatc'h. The
lone consolatioxi for the Judges
was Barry Zimmerman's 30
point performance, which gave
him a 20 point game average
for the season.

Trinity successfulUy defend-
ed its New England fencing
trophy at Brandeis Saturday
by out-duelling eight other col-
leges in the 14th Annual New
England Intercollegiate Fenc-
ing Championships.

John Kalish of Brandeis won
the epee championship with a
15-1 record in the round-robin
tournament. Karl Kunz of
MIT gained the sabre title, also
taking 15 of 16 decisions. Har-
vard's Tom Musliner captured
all his bouts in foil to earn that
trophy.

The closest contest was in the
sabre category, where Richie
Cohn of Brandeis, last year's
champion, was edged out by
Kunz.

MIT gave Trinity, which
scored 66 points, a battle for
team honors, and wound up
with 63. Holy Cross put on a
strong finish, but fell one point
shy of MIT. Brandeis (56) fm-
ished fourth, followed by Har-
vard (51), Norwich (40),
Southeastern Massachusetts

The Student Board of Re-
view has announced an agree-
ment with Dining Hall Man-
ager Norman Grimm changing
the dining hall rules.

The new rule allows a per-
son on meal contract or some-
one paying for a meal to give
food to anyone else entitled to
eat that meal. In the past, this
had been illegal, though the
rule was rarely enforced. One
of the effects of the new agree-
ment is to make it legally pos-
sible for one student to get cof-
fee for another, if both are on
meal contract.

Two-Man Suites, Apartments Tripled;
Storage Rooms to House Freshmen

Dean- of Students Kermit C. Morrissey late last night revealed a series of major changes in
the housing policy for next year.

The new program involves the tripling of two-man suites in North Quadrangle; the trip-
ling of five resident counsellor apartments in North and Hamilton Quadrangles; the conversion
of basement storerooms in North and Hamilton to living quarters; the addition of a fourth
Ridgewood cottage for girls in the building presently housing the Alumni Office; the doubling

Sachar Proposes New
British Exchange Link

President Abram L. Sachar told a gathering of Student
Council members last week that the University is presently
negotiating with the University of Sussex to establish an ex-
change program that would include the awarding of a joint
degree to the student participants.

If the association with the English school is established,
it would be the first program in which exchange students re-
ceive a degree from both participating universities. As presently
envisioned, the exchange would include graduate students and
faculty members, as well as undergraduates.

One of the main obstacles in the way of immediate im-
plementation of the program has been the inability of Sussex

^♦to defray the costs of the Bran-
deis students who would live

the doubling of all Ridgewood
singles.

In addition, all freshmen and
transfer students living within
a 25 mile radius may be re-
quired to live off-campus.

The proposals were present-
ed by Morrissey to a packed
session of Studenl: Council
which lasted until 1:30 a.m.
After protracted and heated
debate, Council voted to adopt
the outline of the proposals
with several major reserva-
tions.

Among Council's objections
to the Administration plan was
the fact that Council as a body
had never been consulted
about the proposal and that the
Housing Committee had had
little or no say in its formula-
tion. Council reserved the
right to continue investigation
of possible alternatives and the
right to reject any specific
parts of the proposal at a later
date. Council also demanded
an investigation by health au-
thorities of all facilities in-
volved, especially the Castle
and the basement rooms, both
allegedly legally substandard.

The two-man suites to be
tripled consist of two intercon-
nected rooms. All nineteen
such suites in North will be
tripled. The residence coun^
seller apartments to be tripled
are in Shapiro A and B, Usen,
Renfield, and the Castle. The
basement rooms to be used are

on the Sussex campus. Since
holding discussions with Sir
Isaac Wolfson during his recent
trip to England, Dr. Sachar is
optimistic that financial sup-
port for Sussex will be forth-
coming from the Wolfson
Foundation.

The original suggestion for
the exchange came during in-
formal discussions between Dr.
Sachar and Asa Briggs, Pro-
Vice Chancellor of Sussex, dur-
ing the latter's tour of Ameri-
can campuses three months
ago. Since then, faculties and
administrations of both uni-
versities have approved the
program in principle.

The proposed exchange
would call for the annual trans-
fer of ten specially selected un-
dergraduates, five graduate
students, and perhaps two
faculty members from each
school.

Firemen Spread Foam on Flaming Plane

Two Students Killed
In Airplane Tragedy

Two Brandeis students were killed Wednesday afternoon
when their rented plane struck two tr^^es a.nd plunged into the
wall of the old reservoir opposite the library.

The victims were the pilot, Elgin Annis, 25, a special grad-
uate student in Anthropology, from Errol, Now Hampshire, and
his passenger, Carlisle Blodgett, 24, a freshman, from Cam-
bridge, Massachusetts. ^ ^^

The plane, a single engine

silver and red Cessna 150, had
been rented about two hours
before the crash from Arrow
Enterprises at Hanscom Field
in Old Bedford.

According to eyewitnesses,
the plane had been flying low
over campus for several iiours,
buzzing several classrooms and
the library. A Civil Aeronau-
tics Board official reported that
Annis had been warned pre-
viously about violation of
safety regulations.

According to Robert Zamin-
sky, a spokesman for Arrow
Enterprises, the plane had been
rented at noon to Annis and
Donna Roslow, another gradu-
ate student. This led the Uni-
versity to believe that Miss Ros-
low had been the second victim
and her name was released to
the press. It was not until 10
a.m. Thursday that Miss Blod-
gett was positively identified by
means of jewelry and clothing
found on her body. Annis had
been identified almost imme-
diately by means of papers
found in an attache case
aboard the plane.

The crash occurred slightly
after 2 p.m., while the road
alongside the reservoir was
crowded with students heading
to ajid from classes. Scores of
students were able to see the
crash from the road, the li-
brary, and adjacent classrooms
and dormitories.

According to eyewitnesses,
the plane was flying close to

The Neighborhood Youth
Corps, Which is a unit of the

impoverished youth, enabling
them to remain in or return to
school, or to increase their em-
ployability. Although many
observers consider that the
Youth Corps has been the most
successful program in the anti-
poverty campaign, it has re-
cently come under attack for
involvement in a number of
scandals, including the one
which is currently rocking the
Action for Boston Community

Second Meeting
On Draft Issue
Held Thursday

The second of a series of
undergraduate mass meetings
on the use of grades to deter-
mine draft deferrments was
held Thur^ay night, March 17,
in Nathan Seifer Hall.

The meeting was held to con-
sider a series of alternate pro-
posals compiled by a student
committee.

The third faculty meeting
was also held on the issue
Thursday afternoon. That
meeting, attended by over one-
half of the faculty, delegated to
a sub-committee several tech-
nical and procedural matters.
A series of proposals similar to
the student suggestions will l)e
voted on by the faculty at a
fourth meeting scheduled a
week from this Thursday.

The student resolutions,
which cover the range of poli-
tical opinion on the issue, are
being voted on by the entire
graduate and undergraduate
student body this week. Once
the vote is completed, a third
student meeting will be held to
plan a course of action.

A poll of the 250 student*
present was taken to "give an
indication of how the entire
student body would vote"
Resolution #3, presented by
Dennis Brunn, a call to faculty
members to withhold gradej
until the administration pledg-
es not to report them to the
Selective Service System un-
less by student request, re-
ceived 121 votes. It also con-
tained a protest against the
war in Vietnam and the use of
the draft for that war. Resolu-
tion #4, presented by Stanley
Haberman, a protest against
military conscription on moral
grounds, won the next largest
amount of votes, 83. Resolution
#1, presented by Jon Brant,
calling for the so-called "fish-
bowl" method of draft proce-
dure as opposed to the grant-
ing of student deferments, was
tied with Resolution #2. 3T

The Draft; A Different View

Three's A Crowd

The great squeeze is on. Last week, the Housing Office
announced the doubling of all single rooms in Ridgewood
Quadrangle. Yesterday, it was announced that all two-man
suites in North and five residence staff apartments in Hamil-
ton and Ridgewood were to be converted to triples next year;
that basement storerooms were being converted to doubles in
several quadrangles and bunk beds installed in the Castle.
Students are being begged and cajoled to live off campus for
next year, and for the first time in Brandeis history, sopho-
mores are being asked to live off campus. And even with all
this, the University is still talkii>g in terms of a housmg
shortage for next year.

The South Street apartments might have been the answer.
However, through a combination of poor planning and worse
publicity, the administration let the plan fall. Dean Morrissey
hiid been considering the apartment idea for almost a year,
yet he insisted on keeping it quiet until the last mijiute.

The problem, however, is not just with housing. Accord-
ing to figures released earlier this year by the administration,
Brandeis classrooms are bursting at the seams with this year's
huge freshman class. The dining halls are experiencing un-
precedented overcrowding, with waits of up to half an hour
common. The shortage of on campus parking is growing and,
according to Dean Morrissey, it may not be possible for any
sophomores to have cars on campus at all next year.

Aceordini: to the agreement under which the Housing Com-
mittee was first formed. Student Council must approve all
housing policies before they can go into effect. However, last
month. Dean Morrissey told the Housing CommiUee that this
year his plan would go into effect, no matter what Council
said, and Council as a body was never consulted on the issue
at all until last night.

Dean Morris.sey has announced that next year's freshman
class will be about 460 students. This figure, given the present
campus facilities, is absurd. The maximum number of fresh-
men that could be comfortably accommodated is much closer
to the 400 mark. The University must not be allowed to con-
tinue admitting more and more students without first construct-
ing more dormitories, more classrooms, more dining space, more
parking areas, and more recreational facilities.

Next year's acceptances have not been all sent out as of
yet. There is still time to act. We call upon Student Council to
speak out strongly for the rights of those they represent. We
request the Housing Committee to refuse to cooperate in im-
plementing the present policy. Above all, we beg and plead
with the administration not to admit a single student above
the number that can be comfortably accommodated.

Who Are You

The Administration in its housing policy Js attempting a
neat bit of subterfuge. Knowing that the student body reacted
quite strongly to his declaration earlier in the year that "mod-
est tripling" of some freshmen next year might be necessary,
Dean Morrissey came to Student Council last night and prom-
ised that there would be no tripling next year.

However, this declaration cannot cover over the fact that
there wil be a substantial amount of inadequate housing for the
next school year. In order to hypothetically elimijiate the neces-
sity of tripling, Dean Morrissey has proposed a number of ac-
tions, which, if implemented, will be as bad, if not worse.

This proposal will jvist not do. Brandeis students would be
subjected to living conditions which would not only be quite un-
comfortable but might also be dangerous from a health stand-
point.

It is nice to believe that a University is a place where the
student's sole concern is intellectual. But let's be realistic. Inade-
quate living facilities caji have a very profound effect on the
college life of a student that no amount of "superior e<lucation"
could rectify.

It apears to us that what Dean Morrissey has done, in effect,
is to present a proposal so unacceptable that the alternative of
tripling would apepar acceptable by comparison. In fact, the
only real alternative is to significantly lower the number of stu-
dents admitted next year. There is still time.

Yoririi Poor?

I didn't quite believe it when
many upperclassmen told me
that an attempt to establish a
Brandeis humor magazine
would fail due to the apathetic
nature of the students. My staff
didn't believe it either, and so
we put out an issue of Poor
Yorick, proving that Brandeis
coukl have a humor magazine.

Poor Yorick was received
with mixed emotions. Some
people raved about it, others
raved at it. Some of the stu-
dents liked the material, others
did not. But the fact remains,
that whether or not the stu-
dents liked this first issue, there
was almost a unanimous agree-
ment that it was a good thing
that Brandeis finally had a
humor magazine.

With this support for a hu-
mor magazine behind us, we
set about compiling our second
issue. Here we began to run

into the apathetic nature of the
Brandeis campus. We have the
administrative staff; we need
the writers. No one wants to
write. We were sure when we
started Poor Yorick that the
students at Brandeis had the
humorous literary talent to
provide us with a constant sup-
ply of material. We were
wrong. Where is this great
talent that is so prevalent on
other college campuses? Har-
vard. MIT, UCLA, and Cornell
and YesTiiva all have talented
enough student bodies to sup-

ply highly successful humor
magazines. Why doesji't Bran-
deis?

We are looking for material
for our second issue. Many
people didn't like our first
issue. We urge them to write
the type of humor that they
would li'xe to see printed.
Many students liked the fir.st
issue. We ask them to support
us by submitting material. "This
is our situation. We have the
administrative capabilities; we
need material. I>oes Brandeis

Alterations Proposed Student Falls Through Window;
In Advising Program Accident Prompts Safety Inquiry

By JAN KLEIN

Major revisions in the freshman advising program have
been proposed in an attempt to correlate teaching with advising,
according to Assistant Dean of Students, John Rich. The modi-
fications, put forward by the Faculty E.P.C. and the office of the

measures may have to be taken

The University is beginning an immediate investigation of the safety of the windows oa
campus, after last Sunday's accident in which a student fell to the ground through a second floor
window in Shapiro B.

The student, David Traktman, '68, is in good condition at Waltham Hospital, where he has

and field selection. , ..... . , .

A major change in the ad- niade available to students on
visor-advisee relationship is the the basis of the advisors' rec-
basis for the new program, ommendations.
Members of the faculty who are Members of the Orientation
engaged in teaching general Committee have proposed that
education courses will serve as one afternoon of the orientation
advisors and will be assigned period be devoted to seminars
to freshmen in their cla.sses, on discussing one summer read-

the basis of proi>osed field of
concentration wherever possi-
ble. Tlie number of advisees
assigned to each advisor will be
limited to 25 in order to make
meaningful communication be-
tween student and advisor pos-
sible. New faculty members
will not be given any formal
advising duties because they
lack familiarity with the Bran-
deis curriculum.

These revisions represent a
significant change from the pre-
vious utilization of proposed
fields of concentration as the
sole basis for advisor assign-
ment. Since 50-80% of all
freshmen change their original
field of concentration, the old
procedure has proved ineffec-
tive. In addition, results of the
freshman advisor questionnaire
and interviews with members
of the class have shown that
more success in freshman ad-

mg, as an additional feature of
the advising program. This pro-
cedure has been fairly success-
ful in past years according to
Mr. Rich and is currently under
consideration.

Another proposal concerning
the advising program empha-
sizes continuation of the same
advisor - advisee relationship
over a three-year period, pro-
vided that both the advisor and
advisee are agreeable. This
idea is currently under discus-
sion in E.P.C.

Insufficient attention given to
students with advanced place-
ment credits may be a weak-
ness in the new system. It is
anticipated that the afternoon
office hours of the members of
the various departments will
provide adequate time in which
to answer specific questions of
those freshmen. Moreover,

entation period, which will be
extended an additional day.
Two complete days will be de-
voted to informing freshmen
about fields of concentration,
general education require-
ments, and individual course
selection. Members of the fac-
ulty who are fully acquainted
with these requirements will
participate in a series thorough-
ly discussing course choices
open to freshmen. On both
afternoons each department
will have at least one member
available to answer students'
questions.

The initial meeting with the
faculty advi.sor, which has
taken place before sectioning,
was eliminated from next year's
program. According to Dr. Al-
len Grossman, chairman of the
Subcommittee on General Ed-
ucation, this meeting has
proved fruitless in previous
years. Its elimination, said Dr.
Grossman, will result "in tak-
ing the mechanics of orienta-
tion with the university out of
the hands of the advisor." The
proposed academic advising
program schedule calls for sec-
tioning on Friday and the as-
signment of advisors on Mon-
day, and provides a one-and-a-
half week period during which
freshmen may see their advis-
ors for signatures on their final
study cards.

The number of meetings be-
tween advisor and advisee are
to be increased from one for
the signing of the study card
to a series of advising sessions

for faculty approval.

Action, based upon answers to the fundamental question of

"What is education?" have led
to an attempt to integrate stu-
dents more closely within the

department. The faculty sug-
gested that graduate students

in sociology become an organ-
ized structure. As such, they
would be more prepared to as-
sume and more likely to be
delegated responsibility, such
as for the running oX t'heir own
colloquia.

In reference to the under-
graduates, the Sociology De-
partment has acknowledged
the necessity of a definite stu-
dent-professor dialogue. This
awareness may lead to greater
student involvement in prob-
lems of course organization,
course content, and teaching
methods.

This general increase in
awareness, communicated to
the students, is reflected in a
n e w 1 y-established Ad Hoc
Committee on Teaching and
Courses. Several interim com-
mittees have also been organ-
ized to deal with the questions
of instruction and content in
introductory sociology courses,

torials, advi.sing. course organ-
ization, and other pertinent

The Africa Circle presented Monday evening two films by Henry Morgejithau, husband of
Ruth Morj,'t'nlhau of the Politics department. The films were made with much difliculty imd
at great risk because of the violent opposition of the South African government. The material
was smuggled out of South Africa and compiled under the direction of Mr. Morgenthau for pre-
sentation on National Educational Television last year. The first film, called Fruit of Fear, was
very general, depicting the total breakdown of communication between whites and non-whites,

and the delusions and paranoid fears that the whites have concerning the non-whites. The Fruit . * ,0 ^^■ j ,, v. * *u

Favorable Review!

Jacobson

There is arv immediate con-
trast between the one-act, stu-
dent directed plays performed
this season at Brandeis, and
the larger, faculty-directed
productions. The three one-act
plays were all effective, in-
tense, and displayed a variety
of acting and directorial tal-
ents. The current, elaborate
production of Pin« Pong is
quite another story.

The Dock Brief

This funny, if slightly over-
long one-acter, performed
three weeks ago by Roger Gott-
lieb and Mark Burnette under
the direction of Gerald Rich-
man, was delightful. A man is
to be tried for murder: he is
charming and simple — and
guilty. His court-appointed
lawyer is old, a fuddy-duddy,
and incompetent. Mark Bur-
nette was convincing in the
role of the doomed man and
the half-dozen impersonations
that went with it. Roger Gott-
lU^^b was consistent and moving
in a full-bodied characteriza-
tion of the foolish, self-con-
cerned old lawyer. As I noted
above, the play was a bit too
long, and might well have
ended after its first scene.

Escurial and The Chairs

The Escurial is a monastery
thirty miles from Madrid, built
by King Philip II in the mid-
sixteenth century, to which
that dark and ascetic king
moved with his court. The
short play we saw, directed by
Jon Hoffman, is as gray and
bitter as the image in one's
mind of that cave of monks and
hushed court acolytes.

The King, played by Peter
Battis, is mad. A death is im-
minent: we cannot be sure at
first whether it is the King or
his queen who is to die. We
are told, in black tones, "The
Queen dies by poison. Love
does not enter this Palace."

The main interchange is be-
tween the King and his Fool.
The Fool is melancholy, and
the King dresses him in the
royal robes and crown and
they exchange places. Yet
they do not: the Fool has cuck-
olded the King, or has he? The
Monk is Death, or its harbin-
ger, or is he too part of the
King's morbid madness? The
Fool is not funny, or else he is
too good as a king: he is exe-
cuted. The Queen's death is
announced, and the King exits,
laughing loudly, hollowly.

Peter Battis was regal and
powerful as the King. Andrew
Harmon was a melancholy, in-
trospective Fool, in contrast to
the King's description of what
a Fool should be, "simpering,
and perfidious." C. Jeremy
Svkes was the very face of
Death. And yet somehow — I
am not sure whether this is the
effect of the play or not — I
felt dreadfully unsure at the
end. What had happened; why
was I so chilled?

The Chairs, in my opinion,
is the most successful work
done this season at Brandeis.
The acting, by Jeff Jacobs, Ju-
dith Sachs, and Jan Kassler,
was unimpeachable. Daniel
Greenblat's direction was orig-
inal and imaginative, so well
in tune with the spirit of
lonesco's play that the audi-
ence was a part of the per-
formance, sharing its shock
both as spectators and partici-
pants.

It seems that no play can be
written nowadays within the
same conception of reality as
prevailed, say, before the Sec-
ond World War. Every new
play must have some imagi-

nary character, or must center
about some piece of trivia
which allegorizes The Proble-m.
Plays are now written about
the fabric of reality, rather
than within it. This is to the
good, if it helps us realize the
very tenuous framework with-
in which we order phenomena,
the thin, transparent net which
separates our "sanity" from
madness.

The Chairs twists reality
about itself. An old man and
woman, living in a lighthouse,
have evolved a common uni-
verse and past. The man has a
message which he has not been
able to express. Tonight, how-
ever, guests are coming, and
the Orator is due to voice the
old man's message. The
"guests" arrive, imaginary be-
ings for whom the old couple
are continually bringing in and
arranging chairs. After imagi-
nary conversations with the
guests, we see that the couple's
framework is sagging indeed,
that the interplay of their own
realities with ours and with
each other's is not consistent,
and is not successful. Finally,
the Orator really does appear.
The couple, their lives com-
plete, jump into the sea, and
the Orator — is mute!

Ping Pong

Ping Pong, by Arthur Adam-
ov, directed and designed by
Howard Bay, has an awfully
good set.

It seems to me that critical
vocabulary is so limited that
critics must try to be witty in
panning some unsuccessful
production. This reviewer lacks
both sufficient wit and suffi-
cient pleasure in the well-
turned put-down to try. The
play doesn't work. Most of
what I would say in criticism
of the play was written in the
program as apology for it. It
does appear "thin and flip-
pant," and "a tricky mixture
of conventional and way-out
playwriting."

As everyone has heard by
now, the central Symbol of the
play is a huge pinball machine.
The way-out set by Professor
Bay is precisely that: the face
of such a machine, with its
glass apparently broken. The
machine occupies the attention
of seven people: Arthur (Roy
Stevens), and Victor (Arthur
Boehm), who are young play-
ers; Mrs. Duranty (Kendall
March), who is a lessee; Sutter
(Jim Klosty), a hangabout
agent for the Corporation; The
Old Man (Charles Siegel), who
heads the corporation; the Old
Man's flunky, Roger (Steven
Daitsh); and Annette Jacque-
line Rubin), who moves in and
out of the Corporation.

It is the Corporation which ab-
sorbs everyone, principally,
though, Arthur, who goes from
being a player to being an in-
novator of machines, who is
disappointed by the Corpora-
tion. The play ends with Vic-
tor and Arthur, now old, play-
ing ping pong, successively giv-
ing up a net (get it?) and pad-
dles and balls.

What does the pinball ma-
chine symbolize? Sex? Love?
God? Is the Corporation the
State? I don't know, and I'm
not sure if I care. That's the
whole trouble.

Some awfully good actors
appear on the stage. Charles
Siegel has a character for his
considerable talents, and does
a fine job with it. Roy Stevens,
one feels, would do the same
if he had an appropriate ve-
hicle. , „ ,

monkey. It is through these
hats that I will give the elec-
tronic "orders" to one set of
monkeys which you will ob-
serve being obeyed. The hats
of the other set contain only
dead weight."

With this Dr. Ingram
whipped the coverings from
the cages. A gasp came from
the thirty men, which was
quickly followed by an appre-
ciative round of applause, for
Ingram had .spent some time
on the decor of the cages and
monkeys. Both female monkeys
wore pleasing combinations of
eye-shadow and tactfully light,
orange lipstick. They sported
high-fashion hats on their fur-
ry little heads. The only sar-
torial embellishments on the
males were the hats, though
these were of a type to pro-
claim individuality, one being
a stiff, Texas, ten-gallon model,
and the other a sporty, check-
ered thing with a feathered
brim.

As a crowning touch, the
back wall of each cage was
papered with that fuzzy, red,
1890's chintz which is only
now found in restaurants and
brothels as a touching remind-
er of that glorious time.

Dr. Ingram smiled at the
swelling applause, pleased by
the effect of his artful work.
He felt the warm glow that al-
ways overtook him when he
had worked the right psycho-
logical combinations on his
colleagues. He could hear the
director's voice, booming over
the applause, "Go to it, boy!
Let's see 'em screw!"

Sensing the appropriateness
of the moment, Ingram leaped
to the controls and pressed a
large, red-lighted button; then
he leaned forward with the
others to watch. For a moment
the room was as silent as a
gathering of monks waiting for
a Papal decision on celibacy.
Then the monkeys realized that
the gratings which had sepa-
rated them had .somehow been
removed. With piercing shrieks

WoU Interview

Continued from Page Z
agfainst the poor, the under-
priviiei!:ed, the less inlelliKent,
that what you are doing is de-
ciding that one person is a bet-
ter person than another. You
are sending oft' the underpriv-
ileged kid possibly to die in
the war whereas you are ging
privileges to those who have
the opportunity to attend a
vniversity. Do you have any
oommen^s?

Well: That criticism is the
most telling one made of the
selective service system. As an
ideal it would be best for ev-
eryone to be treated equally.
The poor, the underprivileged,
and the unintelligent are not
drafted. And secondly, I don't
think that you can assume that
going into the army i.s consid-
ered as some form of punish-
ment by everyone. It might be
belter to look at it as one kind
of endeavor that people can
engage in, rather tlian suggest-
ing that everyone who is in the
army is somehow thereby un-
derprivileged or implying that
the army is something undesir-
aible for all ixiople.

Remember, some people se-
lect the army as a career, and
interestingly enough, and this
has l>een brought out in some
of the information we have got-
ten from Vietnam, the re-en-
listment rate among some of

the underprivileged groups is

quite high. In particular, there

is some information that the
re-enlistment rate of Negroes
is quite high. One of the rea-
sons given for this, (this is
especially true if they are offi-
cers or non-commissioned offi-
cers) by the military is that
these individuals find greater
opportunity in the armed
forces, are treated better and
can reach positions of greater
responsibility than in private
life, which is a very sad com-
ment indeed upon American
society. Nevertheless, when
you look at re-enlistments, it is
simply not borne out that the
underprivileged — and that is a
term by the way which is vague
and ambiguous — necessarily
feel that the army should be
equated to some kind of crim-
inal institution.

Justice: Assuming the need
for some basis of selectivity
among the college students, do
you consider the present meth-
od to be the best?

Woll: It is probably the best
that will ever be accomplished,
given the political and legal
arrangements that have to be
made, A better system would
be one that would be centrally
administered by an- agency
such as the Selective Service,
which is independent of the
Defense Department. By cen-
trally administering the sys-
tem, it could be made equita-
ble. The way it is now there

is ver^ decidedly a problem.

Suppose you are from Kansas,
Idaho, or Nebraska, and you
live in a small rural commu-
nity where farming is predomi-
nant. Let us say you are also
a student at Harvard or Bran-
deis. The chances are that the
local board in that area would
not defer you as readily as
would a local board in a more
urban area with less need for
agricultural workers, and with
a greater supply of manpower.
The system as it works to-
day is actually quite capricious
because it depends upon the
discretion of local boards,
which means that there are
tremendous geographical dif-
ferences. People from differ-
ent areas are simply not treat-
ed according to the same stand-
ard. The system potentially
could be better administered
by a central authority, even
thoufiu this opens up certain
questions of tlie possible arbi-
trariness of the central govern-
ment. As things stand now,
two people wlio are identical
in every respect, in terms of
grades, and occupation, will be
treated differently if they fall
within the jurisdictions of dif-
ferent draft boards.

Justice: Do you have any in-
formation concerning the test?
Will it favor science students?

Woll: General Hershey has
said, "Of course it is going to
favor science students." I have
not seen the test and have no

way of knowing its content. I
would guess that it will favor
students who do well on math-
ematical aptitude questions,
spacial relations, graphs, and
so on. Reading comprehension
probably will be a smaller part
of this test than it is on the col-
lege record examinations.

Justice: What is your feeling
on this?

Woll: Students should be
treated equally regardless of
their fields.

Justice: Aren't you discrimi-
nating between students now?
One student who has higher
marks will not be drafted,
while another will be.

Woll: Selective Service does
not discriminate against stu-
dents as far as output is con-
cerned because the grades are
but one standard that will be
used. The test is another. More-
over, if you are trying to meas-
ure performance, you would be
on weak grounds if you say
that using grades is a form of
discrimination. I don't think
it is. Discrimination implies
that standards will not be ap-
plied equally to everyone.
Benefiting science over social
science students is discrimina-
tion, unless a policy decision is
made that science is more in
the national interest.

Justice: You do not agree
that science is more in the na-
tional interest than the hu-
manities or social science?

Woll: No, I don't. But, I will

confess that when you start to

pin me down at this level as to

what is in the national interest

and what isn't, it is very hard

to give you an answer. I really

cannot refine and determine
this in relation to particular
fields of research and teaching.
I think that the people who ob-
ject to the Selective Service as
such are on reasonably strong
grounds, because it is very
hard to determine objectively
who should be exempted, al-
though my answer to thia
would be that it is better to try
than to resort to an irrational
lottery system.

Apartheid

Continued from Page 4

elected by the people. Tlie re-
mainder are appointed by the
South African government,
whicli also retains the power
to veto any measures proposed
by the Assembly.

The South African govern-
ment is presently in an ex-
tremely strong position. Its
police tactics have practically
extinguished effective nation-
alist resistance within the
country. Militarily it is strong-
er than all the other African
nations combined, and soon it
will have the atom bomb. It is
safe from anything more than
ineffectual moral sanctions
from the Western Nations; the
U. S. and Great Britain are
both making too much money
in South Africa to want inter-
vention, no matter how much
more it is clearly warranted
there far more than in places
where we do intervene.

Still the situation is explo-
sive. If the South African gov-
ernment involves itself too
much in the Rhodesian situa-
tion, and if the British feel
compelled to take military ac-
tion there, the fighting could
easily spill over into South Af-
rica. If tlie degradation of iwn-
whites in South Africa be-
comes much worse, it may trig-
ger some sort of popular up-
rising which, if brutally sup-
pressed, would shame the west-
ern governments into a posi-
tive show of force. Or, as some
think, the situation can remain
as it is for up to ten or fifteen
years while the other African
nations gather strength for a
joint assault which would un-
doubtedly involve the rest of
the world. One thing is cer-
tain: such gross inhumanity
cannot continue indefinitely.

With this one exception,

GT&E is committed to national defense

We leave it to youth to secure the
nation against little people from
space. In all other respects, GT&E
has the advantage.

It started at the turn of the cen-
tury, when one of our member
companies equipped U.S. naval
ships with telephone switchboards.

Today, GT&E is a major factor
in military electronic systems de-
signed for defense.

Among our contributions to na-
tional security are hardened com-
munications for missile bases;

ground stations for Syncom relay
satellites; two big new radar track-
ing systems for space vehicles; and
the AUTOVON Automatic Voice
Network, a worldwide communi-
cation system that can complete
military calls between continents
in less than 10 seconds.
Our unique capabilities in mili-

tary electronics are the result of a
high degree of teamwork practiced
by GT&E*s family of member com-
panies.

Hoop Statistics

M«reli 22, 19M

The final basketball statistics
give credence to the lament
that this was a rebuilding year,
and that the future will be far
more rosy than this year's 3-16
record.

Interim Coach Hiibie LeBlanc
can look forward to the return
of this year's team intact. And
Who can contest that experi-
ence and a healthy Barry Zim-
merman will lead to improve-
ment?

The show this season was
Stolen my freshman Steve
Katzman, whose exploits land-
ed him on the EC AC All-East
weekly team twice.

Pickitig up the slack caused
by Zimmerman's injury, Katz-
man led the team in points
scored, with 338 for a 17.8 per
game average. He also broke
a Brandeis assists record, set-
ting up 127 baskets during the
campaign.

Zimmerman continued his
phenomenal basketball display
for the third straight year,
averaging 20 points in the 14
games in which he saw action.
For the first time in several

years, the Brandeis five held
its own in the rebounding de-
partment. Credit here goes to
the three big men — sopho-
mores Dave Jacobson and Jack
Rovner, and freshman Tom
Haggerty.

Jacobson averaged 10 points
and 10 rebounds per game,
and displayed aggressiveness
sometimes missing in his fresh-
man year. Rovner also popped
in ten points per game, and
pulled down an average of
seven rebounds against far tal-
ler foes.

Haggerty was responsible for
nine points and nine rebounds
per game, and lead the team in
field goal percentage (.492),

Richie Epstein scored at a
6.5 point per game average,
and his 124 points included the
clutch baskets which meant
victory over Tufts and Suffolk.

Mario Gil's contributions
were, unfortunately, all too of-
ten passed over in the statistics.
Nevertheless, his ability to be
a playmaker and at the same
time to rebound like a forward
should not be overlooked.

Flumere Prepares Golfers

For Grueling Season

While the baseball and la-
crosse players are busy
coordinating themselves into
cohesive units, the Brandeis
golfers are out to prove their
individual abilities. And their
performances have left Coach
Foxy Flumere with the
pleasant problem of choosing
seven of them to represent
Brandeis in 10 matches this
season.

Despite the fine group of
veterans and freshman, Coach
Flumere, the eternal pessimist,
looks with alarm at "the tough-
est schedule of any team at
Brandeis" — a schedule which
includes B. U., B. C, Dart-
mouth, Harvard, and Holy
Cross.

Six Returning:

But the coach can't help but
be comforted by his six return-
ing lettermen: co-captains Dick
Kurshan and Bob Nelson, Barry
Zimmerman. Shelly Naten-
berg, Jim Halpern, and Bob
Zweben.

This competent group is
buoyed (and challenged) by
seven newcomers. Roger
Frankel and Larry Uchill were
singled out by Coach Flumere
as particularly good prospects.
But also in contention for those
seven berths are Jerry Zelen-
ker, Howell Strauss, Dan Ze-
man, Stan Scharf, and Bert
Foer.

The "home" matches will
again be played at the Way-
land Country Club.

up
shot their league opponents off
the court, averaging 48.2 pointi
per game while holding their
opponents to an average of
24.8. The girls consistently out-
classed their opponents and,
although some of the teams
may have given our pessimistic
coach a scare, Brandeis* perfect
league record was never in
real danger.

The team effort which pro-
duces a successful basketball
season is sparked by individual
^ contributions, and few will dis-
pute that the team's most vaU
uable player was co-captain
Judy Smith, Who, playing both
sides of the court almost every
minute of every game, scored
over 500 points (a task, due to
girls* rules, equivalent to
2000 points in men's basket-
ball) in her four year varsity
career, while also leading the
team in rebounding, both of-
fensively and defensively.

Rebounding: Strong:

Contributing greatly to the

needed to control the games
were two hard-playing sopho-
mores — Gila Schwarts and
Amy Greenfield. Gila was also
the team's second leading
scorer, with a better than 10
points per game average.

Also vital to the scoring
meehanism were co-captain
Naomi Lasdon, the team*s third
leading scorer and best ball
handler, and Pat Rosenthal,
whose precision outside shoot-
'\n% proved a real crowd

are expected next year, and
Ellen Goldstein.

The Junior Varsity squad,

greatly helped next year by the
play of leading scorer Judy

still in serious difficulty con
ceminir his arrest for three
charg:es of rape, assault, sod-
oniy, and one count of car-
rying: a dangerous weapon.

His last hope seems to
depend on a set of psychi-

Sachar Agrees to Major Housing Plan CHanges
After Council Rejects Use of "Intolerable Housing

##

Votes Unanimous Opposition

student Council, meeting Sunday night, voted unanimously
to "refuse to tolerate" the use of basement store rooms for stu-
dent housing or the doubling of singles, alleging the "complete
unsuitability of such a housing plan."

Council's action came on the heels of a meeting held last
Thursday morning between Dean of Students Kermit Morrissey
and a group of student repre-
sentatives. The meeting was
held to discuss possible alter-
natives to the housing program
outlined last week by Dean
Morrissey.

Poll Renounces
Use of Otaucr
By Draft Boards

Brandeis students voted last
week to condemn the use of
grades in determining draft
status.

Only 138 of 1021 votes sup-
ported Administration policy
on the draft (Resolution 5) in
the referendum sponsored by a
student committee, 343 voted
to condemn the war in Viet-
nam and called on the Univer-
sity to withhold grades (Reso-
lution 3). Resolution 1 advo-
cating a lottery to determine
student deferment received 134
votes. The fourth resolution,
condemning military conscrip-
tion, got 238 votes. 168 sup-
ported the proposal to object to
the use of grades without con-
demning the Vietnam war.

Harris Gleckman, '68, a lead-
er of the protest movement,
hoped that the vote would en-
courage further action by the
supporters of each resolution.
He stated that the resolutions
could be sent to newspapers
and Congressmen, and advo-
cated a student-faculty meet-
ing to discuss the issue.

with rotten eggs, rocks, and garbage, and several were physically assaulted by the crowd

of the attackers were report- — — -

edly arrested.

The march was followed by
a series of speeches in the
church. The featured speaker
was Felix Greene, an expert on
Asian affairs. A second nearby
church was used to hold the
overflow crowd of marchers.

The two and one-half hour
march began at 12:30 p.m. Ac-
cording to several participants,
the route was "lined solidly
with hecklers" for much of the
way. The crowd was reported
thickest around the church,
where, according to Dan Ro-
sen, '67, a marcher, "the air
was filled with eggs." Many of
the marchers were hit and the
church was reportedly splat-
tered all over. Several police-
men, including the Chief of
Police, were also reportedly
hit by garbage and rocks. Ro-
sen and several others were
physically attacked by the mob.
The hecklers reportedly
ranged from high school and
college students to motorcycle
no.. *' "nd drunks. They chant-
ed "Communis I .>," "Red
stooges, "Get a shave." and
"Long live America." Several
hecklers on motorcycles, wear-
ing German army helmets with

Iron Cross insignia, reportedly
circled the marchers, jeering.

Protests Climax With
Sex Strike Proposal

The following arc excerpts /row n letter received laat week
by Student Council President Brian Marcus.
Dear friends for peace:

Some of us students al Wheaton. a small college for women,
are deeply concerned about the war in Vietnam and frustrated
with the apparent futility of peace etTorts thus far. We have
signed petitions, written to congressmen, marched in Wiishing-
ton. The war continues. We have now decided to use the most
obvious means of persuasion women have.

It is certainly worth a try to use the idea Aristophanes

wrote a play about in 411 B.C.
' It is Lysistrata. the story of
Greek women abstaining from
sex as a last resort to force the
.sufTering public to devote its ef-
forts to peace.

Brandeis Five
Score in AAU
Wrestling Meet

By MARTY FENSTER

Four members of the Bran-
deis wrestling team and John
Kappler. a graduate student,
placed a strong fifth in tho Now
England Amateur Athletic
Union Wrestling Champion-
ships on March 19.

The five, who entered tho
meet as the South Street Ath-
letic Club, joined on their own.
and were coached by wrestling
mentor Ted Ree.se. Those on
the team who participated were
Mike Lerman. Joe DeMuro,
Neil Weiss and John Cipora.

Kappler tied in the finals and
lost by a weigh-ofT, taking sec-
ond place in the 136 'a division.
Lerman and DeMuro finished
fourth and fifth respectively in
this class. Wei.ss, who once
wrestled at 123 pounds, took
second place in the 147'/2 class.

AAU wrestling difTers from
inter-collegiate wrestling in
its increa.sed emphasis on pins
and take-downs. In place of tho
customary three-minute peri-
ods u.sed in college, the AAU
free-style wrestling involves
two five-minute periods.

With the exception of Kap-
pler, the South Street a.ssoci-
ation will wrestle as Brandeis
University at next year's meet.

This idea appli(>d to tho Viet-
nam crisis might be ofVoctive
by: (a) Broadening tho base of
peace ofTorts; (b) focusing con-
oorn and hope on a resolution
of the crisis; (c) infiuoncing na-
tional leaders within their
homos and throughout the na-
tion: (d) publici/ing tho |)oaoo
efTort. Wo hopo lliat publicity
will givo tho project power. At
the very loasl. disou.s.sion of this
plan by women will cause thoiu
to idjMili fy with the peace ef-
forts. Our demand is a cease-
fire.

We are writing (o you and
many other organi/.alifnis ask-
ing fr)r your support of our
project. Plea.so lot us know as
soon as possible if you can help
us.

Peace.

The agreement provides for
the reolassilication as singles of
about 17 rooms in the Castle
formerly scheduled to be
doubled next year. It al.so pro-
vides for the elimination from
tho list of rooms available as
'primary housing." about 21
spaces in basement storerooms
in various quadrangles, and
about 20 Ridgewood singles
which have boon planned as
I doubles for ilu' coming year.

Of tho spaces oliniinatod as
"primary housing," about 20,
to be so looted by the student
Housing Committee Chairman
and tho Administration, will
be made available as "contin-
gent housing" under a .system
proposed by Dr. Sachar. The
rest of tho.so spaces will be
eliminated completely from the
plan.

Under Dr. Sachar's plan, the
University would compile a
list of qualified students who
could not othorwiso be admit-
ted next year due to lack of
space, and allow about 20 of
those students t«) bo admitted
if I hoy vNcro willing to accept
the "contingent housing." Dr.
Sachar said that "wo should
oflor th(>so rooms to those stu-
dents who want very much to
come 1o Brandeis and are will-
inj» to li\'o in them, and who
woulfl not olherwiso bo ac-
ceplofi by tho Uni\'orsity."

l)v. Sachar stated thai this
a'4i-eement would have the ef-
fect of sotting a limit of 14«0
on tho number of 'primary
residonco spaces" availahio and
a limit of I.IOO rwi tho total
number of students to be al-
lowed to liv(" on campus next
year. The original plans had
called for the housing of l.'>40
students on campus next year.
Tho present on campus capac-
ity is 1400. This will bo rai.sod
next year through addition of
the Ridgewood cottages, tripl-
ing two room suites, utilization
of tho throe man apartments,
and .several other options.

Those students who have al-
ready sigru^d up for any of the
rooms to bo eliminated by the
new plan and who still wish to
keep them may do so. No diaw-
in^ procedure has been sot up
yet to handle assignment of
the newly re-oponod singles.

Also present at the mooting
yesterday was Director of Bus-
iness Administration Mr. David
Rolboin. who reported that
several of the large rooms in
Ridgewood have been planned
as throe man suites for next
year. There was no objection.

Crowd

The U)\low'mg ediUninl appeared this summer m THE
DAlLy CALIFORNIAN, the newspaper at the University o/
California, Berkeley. Taken at jace value by some San Francisco
newspaper, the editorial received wide pubUeity.

Unit III of the residence halls may not be ready for occu-
i>ancy when the fall semester begins, the Housmg Service says.
if so they say, students in Units I and II may have two room-
mates instead of just one for the first few months of the semester.

That means three to a room.

We lived in the new dorms for a year. We had a good room-
mate, two chests, two desks, two beds, three chairs, a bookcase
and no more than the usual pile of junk.

It was fun, sort of, but it was bad for our grades and our
personalities. , ^, .,

With three people to the same size room the problems would
be increased by half. Imagine three beds, three bureaus, three
desks, live chairs, and two bookcases, not to mention the bigger

piles of junk. .. , .^ ^. ,, i

Nobody's going to be very happy with the situation. Unless
fche University pioneers in a revolutionary extension of equality
between the sexes.

Integrated rooms, we mean. UCLA has had coeducational
residence halls for the last few years The buildings were divided
with concrete and steel between the sexes, and separate ele-
vators for men and women.

This, to us, is a vistage of Jim Crow the University should
deplore. Here is an opportunity for the administration to prac-
tice their preachings of nondiscrimination. And make the three-
in-a-room situation much pleasanter.

Two men and a woman, or two women and a man would
make a happy menage a trois. Everyone would be on his best
behavior. The room would be picked up in an attempt to impress
the other sex. Girls would no Ic < r run around in rollers. The
men would shave even during 1; .;«ls.

But bi'sides the ameliorate- «f overcrowded conditions, co-
educational roommates would vent further panty raids and
boxer rebellions. After all, who s going to capture things he-or
Bhe-can find at home.

Also University records show that married students get
better grades. With roommates of the opposite sex, the home-
like atmosphere of the married students' families would be ap-
Eroached. And instead of the triplets' grades falling, as might
e expected from studying in such close quarters, they would
remain the same or perhaps even rise.

We ask the University and the Housing Service to consider
this solution to the overcrowding problem. This peaceful co-
existence, we think, is the only way three students can live in
one room without slitting each others' throats inside a week.
Besides, coeducation can be fun.

DOORS OPEN 7:45 P.M. EVERYBODY WELCOME

To the Editor:

I wa.s dismayed ;il the inac-
curale coverage of the new ad-
vising system adoplcil by the
Faculty EPC. The Justice
(Maich 22) compklely ignored
the student role in the prepara-
tion of this fine proposal and
made several important mis-
statements.

The Student Educational
Policies Committee came up
with a comprehensive proposal,
which was approved by both
the E.P.C. and Student Council
in November. The Administra-
tion had nothing to do with
any of this preparation.

EPC's proposals called for a
complete revamping of fresh-
man advising and suggested
that advising be integrated
with teaching. We also de-
manded the right of students
to choose their adviser, to be
assigned to the same adviser
for his last three years if the
student and adviser agreed, to
set a maximum on the number
of students assigned to each
adviser, to require each faculty
member to advise at least one
student, and to eliminate the
unfortunate use of new teach-
ers as "advisers."

From November to January
the Student-Faculty EPC,
chaired by Mr. Robert Koff,
considered these proposals on
the basis of the student initi-
ative. Dr. Allen Grossman and
Mr. John Rich did a wonderful
job in working out the system
for arranging the freshman
advising assignments.

In January both the Student-
Faculty Committee and the
Faculty EPC approved all the
student suggestions. They will
go into effect in September and
all students will be affected.
Several important errors were
also made in explaining the
freshman plan. Freshmen will
have a scheduled appointment
to meet with faculty members
I during orientation to discuss
their individual problems. The
! story was mistaken in saying
I that these ideas are tentative,
i since the Student Committee
was told that they definitely
will take effect in September.

The history of the adoption
of this fine new system shows
what student initiative can ac-
complish. Thanks should go to
all the EPC members who
worked on the proposals, the
freshmen who answered the
questionnaire. Student Coun-
cil, and Frank Bloch, Elliot
Evans, David Fleischmann,
Jonathan M a 1 i n o. Dale Nel-
son, Nadine Payn, and Stephen
Raskin, whose many patient
hours spent on the plan will
help many students in the fu-
ture.

School Will Not
Send Class Ranks
Unless Requested

The University will not re-
lease class rank to a student's
draft board unless he requests
them to, according to a new
policy adopted by the faculty
and administration. Tiie plan,
originated by Dean Morrissey,
was approved at a special fac-
ulty meeting held late last
month,

Dean Morrissey called the
new policy "a very workable
solution to the problem." Ho
stated that while some i>ersons
might be dissatisfied with spe-
cifics of the new system, he
felt it "adequately met the
need liere."

Harris Gleckman, '68, chair-
man of the series of under-
graduate meetings on the draft
issue, expressed disappoint-
ment with the new policy. He
staled that the undergraduate
and graduate students at their
mass meetings had "considered
the draft problem with an
awareness of the moral and
ethical implications of the new
draft regulations. Instead of
leading the students to deci-
sions based on ethical princi-
ples, most of the faculty chose
to discuss the issue only in
terms of University proce-
dures."

Morrissey

Dean Kermit C. Morrissey
will leave Brandeis eflective
May 1 to take over the Presi-
dency of the newly estab-
lished Alleghany Community
College near Pittsburgh. Tak-
ing over his position as Dean
of Students will be Dean

at Brandeis for several years.

EPC Approves
Pass-Fail System

By JAN KLEIN

A proposal which would allow stulonts to take .<5>ome courses
under a pass-fail marking option was presented by the Student
EPC to a recent meeting of the Student-Faculty EPC. The pro-
posal, intended to encourage .students to take challenging courses
outside their field of concentration, must be acted upon by the
Student-Faculty EPC, Faculty EPC. and the Faculty as a whole.
According to the proposal;

each student in good standing
would be allowed a maximum
of four courses to be graded on
a pass-fail basis. One such
course could be elected per
semester; no pass-fail courses
would be permitted in the
freshman year, and only one
sophomore year. Courses in-
cluded in a student's field of
concentration or intended to
fulfill general education re-
quirements could not be elected
under this system.

Student Choice

Students would be required
to indicate on their final study
cards which course is to be
counted on a pass-fail basis.
Changes could be made for two
weeks after the filitig deadline
with payment of a $5.00 fee

A grade of "D" or higher

necessity of investigating the
possibility of University reform.

He has reportedly circulated
a memo to other department
chairmen in an attempt to gather
support and to determine if
other chairmen have been faced
with similar situations.

Professor Seeley has revealed
that he and several other mem-
bers of his department will de-
cide shortly whether to remain
at Brandeis.

He stated to a Justice re-
porter that one of his major
aims was to go beyond this
particular issue to "bring up a
question of concern regarding I
the whole University," that of!
"administrative arbitrariness." I
Professor Seeley has brought I
the issue before his colleagues!
and the sociology graduate stu-i
dents, who in turn raised it at
a meeting of sociology under- !
graduates lield last Friday in
Schwartz Hall.

According to University Pres-
ident Dr. Abram L. Sachar,
the University had originally
planned to add 45 additional
faculty next year as part of a
budget based on a 5% pay
raise for all faculty. However,
according to Dr. Sachar. it later
became neces.sary to boost the
planned raises to 8.75% in or-
der to hold on to many faculty
members now at Brandeis who
were receiving higher bids from
other schools. "We were faced
with a choice between two ob-
ligations." he declared. "We
couldn't do both and stay with-
in our budget limits. There-
fore we decided to hold the line
on new slots (appointments)
for one year . . . Wo were quite
embarrassed, of course." he
stated, "but every department
except Sociology has agreed to
accept our proposal."

Dr. Sa:har went on to state
that. "Dr. Seeley has. unhap-
pily, in my mind, called in the
students on this matter. This is
not academic conduct." He de-
clared that he had "no desire
to hang onto authority unilat-
erally if it were possible to
share the authority with other
people, provided that they were
competent. This change, how-
ever." he stated, "must be ac-
I complished by orderly process."
I At the student meeting Fri-
day, a resolution was pa.ssed by
lhea[)pro.ximately 200 students,
expressing the hope that the
members of the department
would all reniiin at Brandeis
and that serious discussion of
the best possible course of ac-
tion begin at once.

Dr. Scoloy told a Justice re-
porter that, in his opinion, Bran-
deis deans are practically pow-
erless, and that the f;»cuity has
only limited power. He stated
that the lack of information ^
pre.sented to students about ac- j
tion of academic concern blocks;
their ability to make their views
count. Further, lie cited the
threat two years ago of mass
expulsion of pariotals protestors
as an example of what he con-
siders to be keeping this univer-:
sity from "true greatness."!
While stressing that he wished
to impose no specific views on i
anyone, Professor Seeley said '
that he wanted enough infor-!
mation given for decisions and;

(Continued on Page G) 1

certs, and action groups, ac-
cording to several Council
members.

Part of the need is expected
to be satisfied by a new grant
of over $8100 which has been
given to the Student Union by
President Abram L. Sachar.
However, according to Council
President Brian Marcus, *67. a
former Council Treasurer, this
is only about half of the s u m
needed. He estimated that if
the new raise were adopted it
would bring in an additional
$7500, enough to keep the Stu-
dent Union solvent, but still
not enough to free it of de-
pendence on the University.

Council members have an-
nounced plans for a door to
door campaign to muster sup-
port for the increa.se. A major-
ity vote of all the student body
not just of those voting or of
those who have paid the SAF,
is required to adopt the raise.

Plans call for the election to
be held on May 9 in all three
dining Imlls at all three meals
for on campus resident stu-
dents. Off campus students will
vote in the library lobby from
8:30 a.m. to 11:00 p.m.

According to Silver, most of
the money needed is for new
organizations. In addition, in-
flation has hit many old activi-
ties. Silver said, with some
activities doubling in cost since
1964.

I sity College, has just been

j named to the newly created po-

I sition of Director of Residence

at Brandeis.

The new organization of the
system will provide the Uni-
versity with a full time housing
director for the first time in
two years. The post of Dean of
Residence, vacated in 1964 by
Miss Ruth L. Bean and never
filled, will now l)e abolished.
Until now. the duties of the un-
appointed Dean of Residence
were a s s u m e d by various
branches of the Dean of Stu-
dents Office.

In commenting on the new
appointfnent. Dean of Student.s
Kermit C. Morrissey remarked,
"I am terribly encouraged by
the addition of responsible,
professional, and capable staff."

Mr. Schwartz, a Columbia
graduate, has been in charge of
men's residence at Columbia
for the past four years. He will
assume his new role July 1.

In his new position, he will
have complete responsibility

program, including housing
policy, room drawings, and res-
ident counselor appointments.
He will al.so hold a seat on the
Administrative Committee of
the University.

His new role at Brandeis. Mr.
Schwartz noted, in an article in
the Columhi.i Daily Spectator,
will involve "dealing primarily
with students." rather than
with financial or maintenance
problems, his main duties at
Columbia When reached for
comment by the Justice, Mr.
Schwartz declared that he "pre-
ferred to .see the students them-
selves .set housing policy, since
they are primarily involved."

President Speaks!

State of the Union

Brion Marcus

Over the past €ij;hte€n years, the Brandeis community has witnessed a phenomenon
never before seen in the history of American education. In an incredibly short period
of time, Brandeis has joined the ranks of the most respected and sought-after liberal arts uni-
versities in the United States. The meteoric rise of the University, both academically and
physically, has left in its wake the inevitable problems associated with a young, vibrant in^ti
tution. There has been little time to step back and view in some type of perspective where we

Give of Yourselves

The Justice joins the Student Council Budget Committee
in "urging everyone to vote 'yes' on May 9th" for a $5 in-
crease in Student Fee over the present $30 (see letter on
page 7). Allocation requests increased by $19,000 this year
Jn most cases requests were legitimate. Yet, even with a pro-
jected increase in activities fee to $35, the Budget Committee
has found it necessary to cut allocations by $18,000. If the
fee increase does not go through, the club and socJal program
will be wholly inadetjuate.

The temptation for students to vote against the fee in-
crease, wnich would mean the shelling out of live more dollars
per person, is great. Yet, this temptation should be resisted.
The real heart of a university, and particularly Brandeis, are
its extra-curricular activities. The five dollar increase will
for most be more than repaid in terms of broader student ac-
tivities. We therefore repeat our urge for all students to get
out and vote for the fee increase.

Coup de Main

To some members of the Brandeis faculty, this has been
the Year ol the Locust. For the second time in six months,
fatuity members are up in arms about the pattern of academic
detision-making at Brandeis.

As the dialectic between Dr. Seeley and Dr. Sachar ap-
pearing in this issue of the Justice makc^ clear, there are two
separate issues under dispute in the latest Brandeis "affair."
On the one hand, there is the specific issue of whether or not
the two Sociology posts ought to have been cut back. On the
other hand, there is the more general, and far more important
issue, of the way in which that decision, and most decisions at
Brandeis, are made.

We do not propo.^e to debate the merits of the specific prob-
lem directly. Instead, we will approach the more fundamental
issue of Brandeis decision-making in general, of which the
specific grievance of the Sociology Department is, in a sense
only the result.

Dr. Steley charges that decisions at Brandeis are made by
fiat, by "administrative arbitrariness." It is indisputable that
most decisions made at Brandeis are, in fact, unilaterally con-
ceived and executed. The students and faculty — that is, those
groups concerned with the results of such decisions — have all
too often no say in the formulation of these decrees.

Does the President attempt to refute such charges as these?
He could hardly do so. He can only claim that he would not
••hang onto authority unilaterally," if only he could find some
other "competent" people to share power with. While we con-
gratulate Dr. Sachar for this sentiment, we have yet to see it
put into practice. In a word, there has not been any democrat-
ization of the Brandeis power structure; at most, there are
"advisory" committees.

The results of the failure to reform the authoritarian Bran-
deis pattern are clear. First, since decisions are made for the
Brandeis community by a closed circle (at most), any decision
is liable to charges of "arbitrariness," of a lack of simple respect
ior those most directly concerned. Because the decision-makers
operate behind closed doors, they can only disclaim, but never
disprove, such charges. Further, no decision made by fiat can
be truly legitimate. Legitimacy is the result, not of power, but
of authority, and authority must take into account the desires,
and the human reason, of all interested parties. In a sense,
therefore, any unilateral decision is wrong, because it carries
no moral conviction to those subject to it.

What is to be done is obvious. The pattern of decision-
Tnaking at Brandeis must be radically changed, in the direction
of democratization. The ways and means of effecting this
change remain to be discussed, but, first of all, we note that
they must be based upon the breakdown of the separation by
estates of Brandeis into students, faculty, and a hitherto all
powerful Administration.

In Transition

Dean Morrissey is leaving Brandeis to accept a position as
President of Alleghany Community College. The Justice wants
to congratulate Dean Morrissey and to wish him luck in his
new iX)sition.

One of Dean Morrissey's contributions to Brandeis has
been increased communications between his office and stu-
dents. While there were times when we would have wished
that Dean Morrissey had followed student opinion more close-
ly, we believe that he did give student opinion meaningful
consideration. We anticipate a similarly open relationship with
Dean DriscoU when he takes over May 1.

Administrators at the Uni-

will punish officials of Sigma

ecution of a mule on the front
of the fraternity's lawn late last
month. The mule was report-
edly bought for $15 and exe-

The mule was sick and was
scheduled to die in a slaughter-

which it was killed. A.ssociate
Dean of Men William Chase
felt that the action was just a
prank and added. "No one con-

Dr. Mary E. Dillon, Professor

her overcrowded course this

Or would you .settle for be-
ing a movie-watcher?

The Sexual Freedom Forum,
another of the Berkeley or-
ganizations, tried to present in
early February a "genuine nud-
ist film put out by organized
nudists with no orgies, no fe-
male impersonators, and no
beards and sandals." The uni-
versity administration l>anned
the film, citing its "educational
irrelevancy."

(Whatever happened to "Cap-
tain Video," and speaking of
nudist films. "Jungle Queen"?)

Security Is

Security is a blanket. Security is tenure. Security is a blue
and white station wagon. Or is it?

A professor and a group of students at the University of
California (Berkeley) are considering filing battery charges
against University Policeman James Sicheneder. They have
accused him of pushing two graduate students who protested

his order to fold up the table of

the Student Committee for of the University of Colorado

should have been taken away of the faculty in the wake of a

Sociology Outcast

Security is also tenure, which
Dr. Robert M. Frumkin, a for-
mer member of the Sociology
Department at the State Uni-
versity of New York, does not
have. After completing seven
years at the New York school,
he was denied tenure because
he spent too much time on sex
in classes; he dated single, mar-
ried and divorced women in
Oswego (where the school is
located), including coeds; he
dated a local prostitute; he
made an oil painting of a col-
lege coed in the nude and im-
pregnated her; and he criticized
the college's administrative
policies.

His case was discussed to-
day at the annual meeting of
the American Association of
University Professors b y
F. M. Arouet, formerly Pro-
fessor of History at the Uni-
versity of Pennsylvania and
now a free-lance writer. He
cited Dr. Frumkin's excellent
teaching record — he was
promoted three times in six
years — and his outstanding
scholarship.
Mr. Arouet also charged that
the AAUP has not met its ob-
ligations to faculty members
across the country by standing
up for faculty rights against
administrations.

Demise of Council

Insecurity — the Student
Council of Jackson College sus-
pended all of its operations last
week until the school's admin-
istration gives it some power
and responsibility of its own.

More insecurity — Regents

Ramblings

On Windows

For diversion, the security-
seeker can look to the Univer-
sity of Connecticut for its
Second Annual New England
Invitational Turtle Tourna-
ment. Or there is what the
Stanford Daily sarcastically
calls a "bleed-in." Students at
that Western school (where
51% of the men supported
Goldwater in 1964, incidental-
ly) are taking part in an inter-
fraternity contest to see which
Greek group can give the most
blood. The local chapter of the
Association of the United
States Army has promised a
keg of beer to the fraternity
which bleeds the most for
American soldiers in Vietnam.
The Daily editorialized, "The
AUSA could do a lot more for
the morale of our lx)ys in Viet-
nam if it would just send the
beer insteaa."

While in New York during
the vacation, I could hardly
avoid seeing a new Catholic
church being built between my
house and the subway station.
What struck me most was its
almost lack of windows — the
building was one sweep of red
brick. My historical penchant
immediately asserted itself,
and made me demand under
what circumstances in the past
churches were built so closed
off from the world — certain-
ly most churches since the
(Gothic have not lacked win-
dows. Such a style character-
ized the early Middle Ages, a
time when the Church felt in-
secure because of the violent
state of a disintegrating Eu-
rope. Man was forced to turn
into himself, to seek the divine
within, to close his eyes to the
decay without. Perhaps the un-
earthly faces of those Late An-
tique statues, eyes glassy and
open, staring into the inner and
outer infinities but unaware of
the life directly before them
bear some resemblances to the
subway riders I saw during
rush-hour. Jesus has ceased to
live for them and TV can only

Steven Kramer

dull their senses.

Sometimes I feel we are liv-
ing in the twilight of an era
which began with the Renais-
sance, full of hope that the
world- could be made better for
man. A time when public and
private were not .separated, an
age of undisassociated sensi-
bility, at least for some. One
could be judge, philo.sopher,
and scientist, or poet, courtier,
and soldier, like Bacon and
Sidney. The feeling of impo-
tence in the public stance
which, I believe, characterizes
many of the elite of this gen-
eration, the tendency to .seek
private, passive experience,
through drugs, for example,
do they not reflect the growing
separation of public and pri-
vate, indeed, the reiection of
the public role itself? Perhaps
men are seeking mystic con-
temnlation because they are
unable to find self-expression
in their public acts. Perhaps
the church which provoked
thosf ramblings was an emblem
of the retreat to within Or
perhaps there is no iK)int in
having windows looking out
upon the Bronx.

Students Chosen
For New Potitics
Graduate Dept

The Politics Department has
announced that Brandeis will
have a graduate program in Pol-
itics next fall Ten student.s
have been selected from over
forty applicants as fir.U year
graduate students for the next
school year.

According to Politics Profes-
sor Roy C. Macridis, the gradu-
ate program will be enlarged
in the near future to include a
maximum of twenty-five to
thirty students a year.

A curriculum for the coming
year has already been set up.
The majority of courses l>eing
offered to the incoming gradu-
ate students will also l>e of-
fered to qualified undergradu-
ates. Courses will be taught by
members of the Politics De-
partment.

Professor Macridis l>elieves
that the institution of a gradu-
ate .school will strengthen the
undergraduate program in two
ways. First, by allowing un-
dergraduates to come into con-
tact with "older, more mature"
students; .second, by increasing
the numi>er of courses open to
undergraduates.

Ramblers, and Jean Redpath.

On Saturday afternoon (May
7. 1:00 p m.) the festivities will
continue with a children's con-
cert (May 7 is also Orphan's
Day) and a blues workshop.

Gary Davis!!

The festival's finale will
come Saturday night (8:30).
On the program for that eve-
ning are the Chambers Broth-
ers, the Reverend Gary Davis,
Mitch Greenhili, and Skip
James. According to Greg
Prestopino, assistant chairman
of the folk festival, "We're
hoping that this year's festival
will be even better than la.st
year's, and we've got enough
talented performers coming to
l>e able to predict that it will
be."

IN MEMORIAM

THE JUSTICE joins the
Brandeis community at large
in mourning the death of
Alan Kapaport, '63. He
earned both the respect and
affection of these who knew
him.

In addition to compilini^
an excellent academic rec-
ord, Alan was elected to the
Presidency of the Student
Council and was a vital
member of the varsity debate
team. Upon graduation he
attended Harvard l^aw
School and .served as Assist-
ant Debate Coach at Bran-
deis until his death from
neural cancer.

A hard working Council
President, his innovations
laid the foundation for many
of our present accomplish-
ments. As Debate Coach he
often gladly spent many
hours with those who needed
help. Alan Rapaport's death
is a deep personal loss to
many Brandeis students and
a tragic loss to the entire
community.

Fovoroble Review 2

Matchsticks Splinters

By RICHARD JACOBSON

"Love seekeih only selj to please
To hind another to its delight . . .**

William Blake

This year's Hi-Charlie production, the dramatic (rather than comic) Matchsticks, by
Howard Rosenfield, allowed for the exercise of a good deal of talent in several areas. Between
the undoubted exercise of this talent, and the effective display of it, a number of flaws inter-
vened.

Lorna, fortyish, rich, and beautiful, first appears while engaged in the last stages of using
up Brian, latest in a succession of gigolos. She decides to return to "the beach," a symbolic
tort of youthful world which is free of the frustration and pain which have typified her life. On
the beach, she meets Helen, Charles, and Robb, who are living a not too blissful menage-a-trois.
Helen is young; Charles is sensitive; Robb is "a man." Intrigued at first by the boys, and
then by the menage, which seems to be full of the warmth and love she feels cheated of,
Lorna tries to win, not Robb or Charles, but Helen. Helen refuses Lorna's offer of a comfort-
able life away from "the beach," and Lorna then threatens her with the destruction of the beach
in seven days. Elias, a mysterious ohserver, is seen to pass across the beach.

The boys cannot help Helen: Robb leaves when the others insult his lack of mind, and
Charles leaves when it is clear he can neither protect Helen nor make up her mind for her.
Lorna grows more ominous, and more terribly unhappy. In a moonlight talk with Elias. she
Uarns that there is a kind of existence "which does not forbid love, but knows it is insignificant;
which does not deny pain, but knows it is unnecessary." What can she do? Elias, looking out
to the sea, replies, "Come for a walk with me." They walk out to drown, just as Helen, ready to
capitulate, appears. The next morning the boys return to Helen.

The play presents several difficulties. First, we arc never compelled to believe in "the
beach," either as symbol or reality. In the face of Lorna's threat, why doesn't the happy trio
simply move, say, further up the Cape? Then, too, we can't be sure whose story it is. Is it
Helen's, the story of a young girl threatened by an older, destroyed woman — the image of what
she might become? Is it the story of Charles and Robb (who together add up to one person).
Mind and Muscle, competing for Beauty? My guess is that the real story — insufficiently pointed

in the play — is the confronta-

tion of Lorna with Elias, the 4 «• u 4U • a

opinions to be made, and that

he wanted people at Brandeis

to be regarded "as persons

treated with respect — that

what tiiey thought, said, and

did, did nvike a difference."

Last Wednesday, Professor
Seeley caUed a departmental
meeting after two months of
working with other faculty
members, the faculty senate,
the administration and the trus-
tees, so ihat everyone concerned
could decide what was "reason-
able and proper" for them to
do. The graduate students then
ap|>roved the resolution sup-
porting the sociology faculty
and calling for investigation of
campus reforms.

The Friday meeting of un-
dergraduates supported the res-
olution and debated po.ssible
long-range and short-range
goals and means. Though con-
crete aims have not been for-
malized as yet, those present
believed that broad-based,
thorough discu.ssions of "all the
real i.ssues" with the adminis-
tration, the faculty, and the stu-
dents acting jointly should be-
gin in earnest.

A frequent complaint voiced
at the meeting was the feeling
that this particular department-
al cutback was merely "one

typical example of an often
badly-managed, autocratic Uni-
versity administration," which
through "arbitrariness and se-
crecy made non-persons of it-
self, its faculty, and its stu-
dents." One student said that
"the difTerence between this
controversy and ones in the
past is that this time, underly-
ing problems will be con-
Irontod, rather than specific
symptoms."

Many existing organizations
at Brandeis are planning to in-
volve themselves with the is-
sues originally rai.sed by the
Sociology Department. The Ed-
ucational Policies Committee
and the Student Council are
planning to take part in com-
plete investigations and exten-
sive research.

Student Council President
Brian Marcus, '67, has declared
his interest in the large, long-
term problems brought to the
whole University's attention.
Calling Student Council a "very

representative body for han-
dling such issues," he suggested
that Council should assume a
large role in future university
reform decisions. He declared
that "faculty, students, admin-
istration, and trustees should
participate in hearings to get
at the facts" of the status quo
and develop proposals to "fur-
ther democratize" Brandeis or-
ganization.

Swedish Soul Search

(Continued from pa^e 4)

Swedi.sh iarm sclllements of
yore were closely-knit commu-
nities tied togetlier spiritually
as well as economically. Color-
ful rural festivals with music,
drink, and dance were com-
mon. To a certain extent, then,
the stability of the old farm
community mitigated the ef-
fects of an underlying tragic
character.

Recently, however, Sweden
underwent a rapid industrial-
ization. The farm communities
were ripped apart and the
farmers were herded into new-
ly-built cities. Urban living,
however, was a new experi-
ence. The new metropolitan
centers had only been agrarian
outposts in the recent i>ast.

As a result, Swedish city
dwellers are a strange breed.
They're not really urbanites
but rather misplaced agrarians.
For a while films and books
with rural themes were quite
popular in Stockholm as a kind
of canned nostalgia for malad-
justed cityfolk.

Nearly half of the Stockholm
population, rather than face up
to the concrete, has moved to
countrified suburban commu-
nities. The city, in the sense
that we know it, hasn't really
been accepted in Sweden.

The fact is, however, that
Stockholm life is economically
an urban one. No amount of
wishful thinking will bring
back the agrarian life. The
agrarian mind is thus clashing
with urban reality. Tlie change
has perhaps been too sudden,
however, to evoke a meaning-
ful response. Change is leading
only to l>ewilderment and be-
wilderment to withdrawal. It
appears that until urban reality
is completely accepted, the ur-
ban Swede will continue to be
passive and ineffective.

The younger generation
which, after all. has never
known anythin-g but the New
Sweden, seems to be searching
for more revelant spiritual re-
sponses to the urt)an setting.
Religion, of course, has been
rejc ted by the youth as es-
sentially irrelevant to modern
urban life. New cultural mod-
els from England and America
seem to be preferred to typi-
cally Swedish ones. Tlie hope
is that these teenage rebels will
someday form the nucleus of a
livelier Stockholm,

Sudden social change has ag-
gravated traditional problems
in Sweden. Until the crisis can
be resolved, Sweden shall, de-
spite its comforts, be caught up
in a desperate search for soul.

With this one exception,

GT&E holds the lead in remote control

We leave it up to the dexterity of
youth to manipulate slot cars. But
concede nothing to anyone in the
matter of making machines act as
.they should without human inter-;
vention...even if they're sepa-;
rated by hundreds of miles.

The lead is supplied by two of
GT&E's family of companies.'
Automatic Electric manufactures
the control systems, and Lenkurt
Electric the equipment to trans-^
mit the control signals over wire

lines or microwave radio. In com-
bination, the systems are used to
automate gas and oil pipelines,
electric utility complexes, and the
operations of railroads. ^

The Conitel'^"* 2000 supervis-
ory and control system— new from

tle as .290 seconds. J

stated. Princeton's inquiries
have indicated a favorable re-
sponse from several schools.

Interdepartmental Study

The EPC proposal on Con-
centration Requirements has
been approved and will go into
effect immediately. The Uni-
versity has agreed to include
in the 1966-67 Bulletin a state-
ment describing the program
worked out by the Student-
Faculty E.P.C.

As a result of consultation
with department chairmen,
many departments will permit
qualified students to substitute
a limited number of related
courses in other fields for their
concentration require-
ments. Such an option would
permit a student to pursue an
area of study not represented
by a single department. This
program is open to students
able to present a purposeful
and coherent course of study
only, and individual requests
are subject to rigorous exam-
ination before approval by the
student's department.

dent. However, this finding car-
ries no dcfi^ree of power wita it;
it is simply a piece of advice,
to be accepted or disreg:arded
solely at the will of the Presi-
dent. Similarly, decisions on
tenure are made by the Presi-
dent after a recommendation
of a course of action to him by
the concerned departmental
chairman But, ag:ain, this rec-
ommendation can be overruled,
without appeal, at the Presi-
dent's discretion. This pattern
holds all across the board.

The power of the President,
then, is absolute. It is true that
on specific issues, such as the
Housing question, the Admin-
istration may pull back if
enough of a ruckus is raised.
However, on issues that call
into question the general auto-
cratic structure of Brandeis it-
self, such as the Parietal dis-
pute or the Gough case, the Ad-
ministration has never will-
ingly ceded any part of its
power to a democratic organ.

It must be made to do so. This
can only be achieved through
the coordination of the efforts
of the students and the faculty,
aiming at achieving some s^y
in matters that directly concern
them.

Letters to the Editor

Budget

To the Editors:

We, the Budget Committee
of Student Council, after work-
ing for an entire week on a
projected spending budget for
next year, feel that it is es-
sential to inform the Student
Union of the financial prospec-
tus for 1966-67.

The Student Co-mcil, on
April 18, 1966, approved a mo-
tion stating that the student
body will decide in a referen-
dum on May 9, 1966, whether
the Student Activities Pee will
be increased from the present
$30 to $35. This increase needs
a majority of all the 1730 un-
dergraduates in order to go
into effect. Everyone can vote,
non-S.A F. and oflfcampus stu-
dents included.

For the past three years, the
S A.F. has been at $30. Sixteen
new organizations have formed
in that period, and they alone
have asked for over $20,000
this year. Last year's total or-
ganizational request were $61,-
000. with allocations equalling
$48,000. This year total organ-
izational requests were almost
$80,000; present allocations
total $62,000.

In order to increase total in-
come to offset this rising de-
mand. Student Council received
a 25% increase of funds from
the Administration's past allo-
cation of $6,000. Even with the
txpected increase in the num-
ber of undergraduates, total
funds will be insufficient to bal-
ance present expenditures. If
this referendum does not pass,
a new budget will be reallo-
cated at a 95% S.A.F. collec-
tion of $30, which means that
every club and committee will
have a minimal reduction of at
least 10% of their present
budgets. We feel that such a
reduction will drastically cur-
tail successful completion of
club programs. Present budgets
are on reserve in the library.

If there are any questions,
please speak to any member of
this committee, any member of
Student Council, or any club
president.

We urge everyone to vote
••Yes" on May 9th!

Music Dejil.

To the Editor:

During a period of several
years, now unfortunately some
years past, when the late Irving
Fine was chairman of the Mu-
sic department, the perform-
ance of music at Brandeis Uni-
versity was the most important
component of its intellectual
and aesthetic communal life.
Some of the Friday night con-
certs were performed by in-
vited artists of a caliber so re-
markable as to indicate that the
choosing was done with superb
skill. I can still remember the
performances of the pianist
Seymour Lipkin, the soprano
Bethany Beardslee, and a lady
from Juilliard who traveled
around with a Mozart piano.
The bulk of these concerts,
however, were performed by
artists still in residence at

Brandeis, notably Mr, KofT and
Miss Foley. The accent was on
Baroque and contemporary
chamber music and the pro-
grams were imaginative in ev-
ery sense both for the individ-
ual choices and their juxtapo-
sitions as well as the singularly
honest musicianship displayed.
That I was not alone in my
estimation of their worth was
attested to by the overflow
crowds that gathered and the
excitement engendered on the
campus among both students
and Faculty.

It was at this time that the
responsibility for the organiza-
tion and programming of these
performances changed hands
and came under the purview of
the Music department as a
whole. The creative force be-
hind this program evidently
became diluted out (presum-
ably as it dashed itself fruit-
lessly upon the rocks and shoals
of department staff meetings,
presuming that is, that theirs
are as bad as ours). In any case
this delightful experience de-
generated into what is now a
vehicle primarily designed for
pedagogy and of academic and
not aesthetic interest.

While I am in sympathy with
the aspirations of little Zclda
who wishes to attack the piano
in public at least once before
becoming a housewife, I do not
think that the fulfillment of this
desire, academically worthy
though it may be, should pre-
clude the music department
from exercising its second func-
tion: to contribute to the aes-
thetic enrichment of campus
life as only the music depart-
ment can. The fact that it is
doing so very poorly can be ob-
served simply by reading the
schedule of performances of-
fered by other universities in
this area as they appear week
after week in "Boston After
Dark."

1 would urge the Music de-
partment to reexamine its phi-
losophy and, if it sees fit, to re-
turn the responsibility for mu-
sical performance to the hands
that once made it a vital part
of the University life. I would
also urge others of like feeling
to make known to the Music
department how important its
second function is to all of us.
It is precisely because it im-
pinges so direcly on the general
campus community that I can
in good conscience j>oke my
nose publicly into the workings
of another department.

Boys and Ed, Fighting Irish^

Good Guys Capture Hoop Title

The Good Guys. Tho Fighting Irish, and The Boys and Ed captured their respective A, B,
and C League Intramural Basketball titles just before the spring recess.

The Good Guys, wlio were undefeated through the nine game regular season, as well as in
the two game playoffs, successfully combined speed, balanced scoring, and a tight defense to top
the A League. Tiiey had four of the top twelve league scorers in Gerry Katz (12.6 points per
game), Dave Gespass (9.8), Joe Perkins (7.9), and Eric Epstein (7.1). Perkins and Jon Lisman
carried the bulk of the

re-
bounding load. But prime re-
sponsibility for their perfect
record goes to their alert de-
fense, which kept tliem in con-
trol of all games despite the
heiglit disadvantage inherent in
playing three backcourtmen.

Beat Biochems

Tlie Good Guys had to beat
the Biochems in the finals, 51-
42. for the title. The graduate
student aggregate was led by
Pat Dunne (8 0), and Byron
Bowman (11.6 for 5 games).
The Biochems had toppled the
Gooey Surprise in tlie semi-
finals. 45-37. Elliot Goldl>erg
(8.9) and Steve Jacobs (7.6)
were the mainstays of the Sur-
prise team. The other semi-
finahsts were the Jumping
Chodes, who fell to the Good
Guys. 52-26, led by Charlie
Novogrodsky (12.1). Other
league scaring leaders were
Mike Liederman (11.5) and
Bernie Appleman (9.2) of the
Hanging Hammers, and J i m
Cu.sky (8.1) of the Heller
School.

The B League playoffs were
highlighted by an upset — the
regular season leaders, the un-
defeated Alvins. falling to the
Off Campus All-Stars, 45-33. in
the semi-finals Tlie All-Stars
promptly proceded to succumb
to the Fighting Irish in the
finals. 54-39. The latter had
reached the finals by topping
the Frost Men. 51-46, in the
other semi-final game. The
champion Fighting Irish were
led by Mike Gundle (13 6) and
Jim Boyce (9.6), and received
instrumental support from Jeff
Rubman and Jon Spack. The
runner-up All-Stars were
sparked by Herb Beigel (12.9)
and Ed Klinger. George Frost
(10.4) led the Frost Men; Bob
Nelson (9.6) and Lloyd
Michaels (8.8) wore the Alvin's
scoring leaders. Bob Wise (13.
3). Bob Hort (9.3), Larry Gry-
lack (8.8), and Steve GiU>ert
(8.4) were other league stars.

The Brandeis tennis team is
well on its way to a winning
season. Faced with what were
to l>e the four crucial matches
at the beginning of the season,
the netmen have garnered vic-
tories over Babson, 6-3, Colby,
5-3 (one draw), and Holy
Cross. 7-2, after losing the
opener to Tufts, 7-2. All but the
initial match were improve-

The team has looked strong-
er in each succeeding encoun-
ter. Of the remaining eight
matches, no fewer than five
victories are expected.

Of last year's starting six,
only two, sophomore Bernie
Rous and junior Gerry Katz,
have returned to plague the
opposition. Rous, after losing
three successive three-set
matches, found the knack
against his Holy Cross foe and
demoli.shed him in two quick
sets. Katz has l>een off in his

Williams Fourth

Freshman Richie Williams
placed fourth in the quarter
mile, running 52.7 seconds into
a strong wind. Williams ran
even better in the mile relay,
with a 52.1 for the opening leg.
Coach Norm Levine has great
hopes for Richie; he has al-
ready run 49, in high school.
The mile relay team of Wil-

appears to toy with his oppo-
nents, causing them to lose
comtK)sure and finally to face
the ignominy of defeat.

Howie Latin has bagged I liams, Chris Ray, Manny Gold-
three singles successes after | man, and Pete Stevens, placed
an initial defeat to Tufts. Latin,
despite his suffering from great
thirst under the oppressive
Worcester sun, outlasted his
opponent in a marthon encoun-
ter.

Steve Lack is a southpaw
who suffers from sporadic per-
formances, although he was
quite impressive in his two vic-
tories. Paul "Wolf" Hymowitz,
a promising freshman, fills out
the singles lineup for the
Judges.

The singles matches used to
be the Brandeis forte, but a re-
alignment of doubles partners
have resulted in extra points
accounting for victories. The
loss of Bob Aaronson had
forced Coach Ray Ginger to
find new combinations, and by
the Holy Cross match winning
ones have been assembled.
Judging from the H.C. con-
quest, the doubles teams now

Golfers Fall
To Dartmouth

The Brandeis Golf Team fell
below the .500 mark for the
first time this season as it lost
to a strong Dartmouth team on
Saturday. The golfers lost 6 to
1 at the Hanover Country Club,
Dartmouth's home course, as
Roger Frankel, '68, registered
the only Brandeis victory, clos-
ing out his opponent on the six-
teenth green. The loss brought
the golfers' season record to
two wins and three losses. Pre-
viously the golfers had defeated
Stonehill 4 to 3 and Colby 6 to
1, and had lost to Boston Uni-
versity 6 to 1 and Boston Col-
lege 4 to 3.

sing for all concerned. Due to
a schedule mixup, B.U. and
B.C. showed up at the wrong
course. The match, scheduled
for 1:30 finally got started at

fifth out of eight entries.

Chris Ray also qualified in
the semifinals of the 220, but
failed to score in the finals.
Dave Jacobson shot put was
good for third place, and Wil-
mon Wallen-Bryan placed third
in the 120 yard high hurdles,
running the hurdles for the
first time in several years. He
was a former champion in this
event, and now hopes to get
back into shape for the rest o£
the season.

Other Brandeis competitors
were Ken Smith in the two
mile, Danny Rubin in the mile
(he placed fifth) and Tim
Laughrin in the half.

The team has had its diffi-
culties this year, the latest of
which was an injury to hurdler
Paul Edry, which has put him
on the sidelines for the time
being. This has been a year of
rebuilding (track had been
dropped last year), and, unfor-
tunately. Coach Levine has had
a small response to his call for
more student participation.
Anyone with two legs and a
little bit of guts would be most
welcome.

The prospects for the future
are good, as only three seniors
are on the team (Edry, Gold-
man, and Wallen-Bryan). Har-
vey Ross has been constantly
improving, and still bigger
things are expected of him. On
Saturday, April 16, he ran 22.3
in the 220. at the Boston Col-
lege relays; this was the only
bright spot in a generally dis-
appointing team effort.

Peter Branigan. cross-coun^-
try captain, participated in the
Boston Marathon, also on Tues-
day. April 19. He ran 20 miles
of the 26 mile race, before suc-
cumbing to blisters which

Boys and Ed Win

The Boys and Ed topped the
13 team C League, defeating
DeRoy, 45-30, in the finals. The
champs had beaten the Bruins,
38-32. and the runners-up had
conquered the Bay Bombers.
35-24. in the semi-finals. The
latter team team had to top
the Trojans. 38-28. in a special
game to gain the fourth play-
off berth. Allan Kipperman
(112 in 5 games) and Dave
Safir (9.5) were the big guns
for the Boys and Ed. DeRoy
was sparked by Elliot Cohen
(10.3). The semi-finalists
Bruin.s were led by Richie
Paige (13.7) and Larry Uchill
(10.0); the Bay Boml>ers by
Norm Savage (10.3). Other
league scoring leaders were
Larry Fialkow (12.3). Joel Sil-
ver (12.3), Larry Scher (11.0).
Miko Pozen (10.9), and Gerry
Zalinger (9.4).

Trophies will be awarded at
the intramural banquet later

The Brandeis baseball team
completed it first week of com-
petition still seeking a victory.
Anemic batting, lack of control
on the mound, and a disaster
area behind the plate have been
the chief contributors to the
four defeats.

The opening game, at home
against Tufts, was lost early, as
starting pitcher Steve Dubro
couldn't find home plate, and
gave up four runs on four
walks and only one hit in tlie
first inning. Jon Berenson's
bases loaded single brought
Brandeis to within 3 runs, 5-2,
in the second, but Dubro' s
continued wildness (11 walks
in 7 innings) helped Tufts
toward the final score of 19-4.
The shoddy catching was evi-
denced by 10 stolen bases and
3 passed balls allowed by Jon
Porath and Jack Feirman. The
only bright spot in the opener
was Jim Boyce's two triples.

The first away game, against
B.U., was a somewhat less slop-
py repeat of the initial en-
counter. Jim Boyce pitched
well, but the batting attack
was non-existent, and the
catching situation (Bob Plun-
kett was now behind the plate)
was not improved upon, as
Brandeis succumbed 9-1. Errors
contributed to the high BU
score.

The Assumption game was a
study in frustration. The visit-
ing pitcher, Joe Hanlon,
limited the Judges to
one hit (take note, Boston
newspaper reporters and read-
ers), as his team conquered
Brandeis, 11-1. Jim Boyce's
ninth inning double was the
only hit off the right-handed
fastballer. Steve Dubro, re-
gaining his control, was Han-
Ion's unfortunate opponent.

Two Encounters

Brandeis* newest varsity
sport got off to an enthusiastic
start as over 30 boys turned out
with hopes of tackling the
rugged game of lacrosse. Coach
Bob Kittredge faced the diffi-
cult task of teaching a totally
new sport to all but ten of the
players.

Unfortunately, in the first
two games enthusiasm did not
make up for inexperience. Bow-
doin crushed the .shaky Bran-
deis team. 14-1, by outshooting
them. 67-9. Against U.K. I.,
Brandeis gots its offense going,
matching Rhode Island in shots,
but fell victim. 12-5.

Sophomore Rick Fishman ac-
counted for Brandeis' lone goal
against Bowdoin, assisted by
Mike Mo.scovich. In the second
game, Fishman scored two
more goals, while Alan Gross-
man, '69, got another two, and
Ed Siden one. Two of the goals
were assisted by Richard Brod-
sky, one by Jim Kraus.

in Growing Governance Controversy

broke out last month over Sociology Chairman John R. Seeleys denunciation of alleged "admin-

nance. It will be concerned
with the details of relationships
among students, faculty and ad-
mmistration. It plans to collect
information, proposals and le-
gal advice necessary for writ-
ing a model university consti-
tution in the fall. Unionization
of both students and faculty is
being discussed, to establish
legal rights to collective bar-

one of the original issues. Pro
fessor Seeley explained. "What
we asked for. concretely, was a
budget to permit an increase of
about 8% for restitutive pur-
poses, and then the normal
8.75% which the President re-
ports to be the average for the
University." The restitutive in-
creases were requested by the
department in order to elimin-
ate present salary inequities
which "those who sought due
process in the Aberle affair"
have allegedly suffered.

Substantiation for Professor
Seeley's charges of arbitrariness
has come from several sources,
including Dr. Morris Schwartz,
also of the Sociology Depart-
ment, who revealed that as
long as three years ago, Dr.
achar had cut salary increases
for several professors because
of what Dr. Sachar had termed
i eir "bad citizenship."

In an interview with editors
of the Justice on May 6. Presi-
dent Sachar expressed surprise
at "the way this issue has
escalated." and declared that
reform should be accomplished
"on a doctrinal plane rather
than by personalizing . . . and
bad language." He went on to
say that "the Sociology Depart-
ment is an extreme group and
are known as such across the
country, even among other
sociologists ... If they don't
get what they want, they im-
mediately begin calling names."
He described the President's

J ^^^^ — '^^^ f^^^owing is an account of a conversation held
Wednesday with newly appointed Dean of Students Philip
Drtscoll. Dean Driscoll, formerly Dean of Admissions, replaced
Ueari Kermit C. Morressey, who resigned May 1, to accept the
presidency of a new state college in Pennsylvania.

contact betvj^een the student body and the administration, is in
the hands of a new man but the process of transition is still
hPc t^r^^- ^^^- "^jy dean, Philip Driscoll. who still schedules
his afternooris in the Admissions Office where he has worked

Dean Driscoll remarked that
his new role, like the newly
rearranged office he has begun
moving in to. is. for him, a
mixture of the familiar and the
unfamiliar. "In my old post."
he said. "I got to know almost
every student — on paper, but
I never had the chance to fol-
low through ... to know them
as people. I really look for-

Discussing his new position,
Dean Driscoll emphasized the
importance of maintaining close

CLASS OFFICERS

The results of yesterday's
elections for class officers
are as follows. Class of '67:
President - Peter C ha hot,
Vice-President - Jeff Rub-
man, Secretary - Hermine
Stern, and Treasurer - Norm
Aronson. Class of '68: Pres-
ident - Steve Herman, Vice-
President - Andy Ross, Sec-
retary - Vicki Goldberg, and
Treasurer - Freddi Lipstein.
Class of '69: President -
Howie Gold.stein, Vice-Pres-
ident - John Cipora, Secre-
tary - Ellen Short, and
Treasurer - Richard Saivetz.

The election of Chabot,
who won by a one vote
margin over Leo Cohen, 104-
103, is still dependent on the
outcome of a recount sched-
uled for this afternoon.

Dr. Herbert I. Posin was re-
cently appointed University
Psychiatrist and director of
Brandeis' expanded Mental
Health Service.

Dr. Posin, a practicing psy-
chiatrist, is currently an asso-
ciate clinical professor of psy-
chiatry at Boston University
School of Medicine. Dr. Posin
resides in Brook line.

In commenting on his ap-
pointment, Dr. Posin said. "No
major changes are foreseen for
the present system of psycho-
logical counseling. Our ulti-
mate goal is to improve total
services for the students."

When questioned about the
rumored plan to decrease the
size of the counseling staff, Dr.
Posin replied. "Although there
may be quantitatively fewer
counselors available in the
future, those available will be
able to spend relatively more
time with the students and the
result will be a relative in-
crease in available services."

Upon assuming his post next
fall Dr. Posin will direct a Bran-
deis plan to develop a research
program dealing with student
mental health and to provide
for disseminating

ing research investigations. tion."

Student Council
Takes Stand on
Campus Reform

Student Council, meeting in
special session Sunday night,
passed a pair of resolutions, de-
claring the need for reform of
the structure of the University,
and outlining a procedure to be
followed to achieve this aim.
Council called on all students
to take an interest in "inquiry
directed towards democratic re-
form of the institutional deci-
sion-making structure of the
University."

The four-part resolution on
procedure, adopted unanimous-
ly, reads as follows. "We, the
duly elected representatives of
the Brandeis University Stu-
dent Union, suggest that the
present mechanism of decision-
making at this University be
thoroughly discussed and re- i
defined. We therefore propose
that:

(1) We obtain a written com-
mitment from Dr. Sachar that
the president is willing to dis-
cuss University reform and is
willing to take action on the
results of this discussion.

2) We send a letter to the
Board of Trustees explaining
Student Council's determina-
tion to take action in this area.

3) Over the summer, we do
as much research as possible in
this area, taking into account
the experience of other univer-
sities as well as the mechanism
here at Brandeis.

4) We hold faculty-Student
Council hearings during the
coming academic year to dis-
cuss University reform and to
bring to this discussion all rele-
vant points of view and parties.

The second resolution, passed
by a vote of 6-3-3, declares that
Student Council "supports
and encourages student interest
and inquiry" into University
reform and calls on Council to
recognize its responsibility in

A communications commit-
tee will be responsible for
maintaining active contact
among the various groups over

a newsletter in addition to
carrying on private corre-
spondence. It also plans to con-
tact faculty and people outside
the University to obtain infor-
mation and solicit support.

A strategy committee will

study, evaluate and develop

specific plans of action for the

fall, taking into account the

been patient with polarities,"
he declared. "I am sure that
throug'h mutual planning and
articulating ... a continuous
dialogue can be established.
There has to be a give and
take." Commenting on his im-
mediate plans, he stated that
"the students will probably not
find any startling changes" in
policy.

Dean Driscoll stated that "In
those areas where the students
are directly affected, there will
be, I hope, good communica-
tions. However, I don't really
feel ready to get specific now."

The new dean, who speaks
in a calm voice with a quiet
sen.se of humor, jokingly re-
marked that he had been put-
ting off switching offices for as
long as po.ssible. "From my old
office," he said, "I could gaze
out the big windows across the
Charles. Here, all I can see is
a brick wall, and the windows!
hardly open."

At a meeting Friday after-
noon. Brandeis Students for a
Democratic Soc'ety announced
organization of the Free Uni-
versity of Brandeis. The Free
University, patterned after
those which have sprung up re-
cently in New York and Cali-
fornia, plans to offer a curric-
ulum "which deals with issues
that are meaningful and impor-
tant to each student rather
than the usual technical train-
ing for a professional disci-
pline."

According to Mark Horowitz,
'69. an organizer of the project,
the specific courses to be of-
fered will be determined oa
the basis of a student poll to be
conducted on May 15. Once
the course offerings have beea
decided on, he said, a faculty
will be sought from among the
members of the Boston aca-
demic community.

The courses will be offered
on a non-credit basis, free o£
charge to Brandeis students.
According to Horowitz, non-
Brandeis students will have to
pay some form of tuition
charges. He stated that the
courses will probably be of-
fered in the evenings once or
twice a week, although exact
times and locations will be left
up to the students and the fac-
ulty.

As examples of the types of
courses deemed possible, Horo-
witz mentioned the following
suggestions: Post-Modem Po-
etry; The Tradition of Dada;
Contemporary Musical Tech-
nique; Translation or Imita-
tion; Metaphor Theory; and
Jean Genet.

BULLETIN

In a campus wide referen-
dum held yesterday, the
Student Union voted to ap-
prove the proposed $5 in-
crease in the Student Activi-
ties Fee.

The increase will go into
effect beginning next year.

Power Crisis

Much has transpired since the emergence of the current
dispute between the Sociology faculty and the President's office.
There have been informal confrontations between Dr. Sachar
and Dr. Schwartz, between Dr. Sachar and the Sociology grad-
uate students; both the President and the concerned faculty
members have released statements about the affair to this week's
Justice; an independent group of students has been organized,
in an attempt to bring about a transformation of the structure
of University government.

Through all this, the issues in dispute have in no sense
been resolved; they have, however, been clarified. The main
point, all parties agree, is the character of the structure of power
at Brandeis — what it is, and what it might be. Up to now,
most decisions involving the Administration as well as the fac-
ulty or student populace are ultimately made by the adminis-
tration. The dissenting faculty and student groups would prefer
to have some say in the decisions that concern them.

As our interview with the President reveals, two currents
about this dissent are present in Dr. Sachar's mind. On the one
hand, he believes that total democratization of the power struc-
ture results in University "paralysis'; on the other hand, he
realizes that there exists a considerable scope of concern about
this question. He claims he is willing to listen to proposals about
reform, as long as they are presented in an "orderly" manner.
The authority to accept or reject these proposals, the power to
grant or withhold power, remain his. Thus, his asking for "or-
derly process" within the existing structure amounts to asking
for an act of faith on the part of student and faculty groups in
his administraion.

We recognize that the Sachar Administration's record to
date is not wholly conducive to such an act of faith. We further
recognize that no act of faith can be forthcoming if the Admin-
istration's attitude towards reform is one of intransigence. Good
faith responds most easily to good faith. More concretely, or-
derly process will best be maintained by an administrative
iwiliing^ness to bc^in concrete discossions of reforms of the
existinn: power structure witb ibosc wbo arc concerned witb
its transformation.

At the same time, we call upon those nrronps interested in
reform to begin work upon concrete proposals for the trans-
formation of the existing: structure. This work should lead
toward an eventual agenda of reform that will be a basis for
a point by point transformation of the existing distribution
of power.

The present structure is characterized by closed discussions
held behind closed doors, resulting in fiats that affect, often
adversely, the faculty and students. It is also characterized by
a separation by estates of the Bcandeis community into student,
faculty, and Administration. The monopolization of power by
a small, closed group is the result. In telling contrast to this
pattern is the open cooperation of students and faculty that the
Sociology department has initiated, and which, we hope, will
come to supplant the existing one. The establishment of such
a pattern might become one of the points on the proposed
agenda. B. A.

Proper Channels

One of the unfortunate results of the Sociology dispute has
been a breakdown in communication between the Sociology
Department and the President's office. It appears that no basic
University reform will take place with the Sociology Depart-
ment acting as initiators. Dr. Sachar has stated that he will not
consider any proposals that are not presented "in orderly ways."

It is apparent, then, that any meaningful change in Uni-
versity structure will be instituted only as the result of action
totally dissociated from the present controversy. It is with
this in mind that we applaud the action that Student Council
took Sunday night in adopting a resolution calling for methods
by which frank and open discussion on the many issues involved
can be fostered.

As the duly elected representatives of the Student Union,
any recommendations made by Council to President Sachar
must be considered as coming through the proper channels.
When the Council recommendations are presented to Dr. Sachar
next fall, they will be presented through the orderly process
that Dr. Sachar called for. We await his reaction. B. B., M. P.

Pass -Fail

The Justice strongly supports the recommendation for the
Pass-Fail Option, which has been presented to the entire faculty
for consideration and, hopefully, adoption. The option should
encourage students to take challenging courses outside their
fields of concentration. EPC carefully considered the pro-
posal before unanimously presenting it to the faculty for con-
sideration. We accept their findings and urge the faculty to

concerns as people. It is a way
to manipulate objects, people

of our human response to
events. We seek educational re-
forms which will give students
an opFK)rtunity to use their in-

in which they live and work,
which will challenge the in-

of educational policy. It pro-
hibits the kind of involvement
which can make education

Letters to the Editor

MiiHicalia

To the Editor:

In answer to Professor Suss-
man's letter, which was printed
in the April 25th issue of the
Justice. 1 feel it important to
clarify certain points that were
made, and to include certain
points that were not made, re-
garding the musical activities
at Brandeis University.

Our Music Department is
unique, considering its size, in
having as large a force of per-
forming musicians as it does
have. Their function is impor-
tant to the University and to
th^ Department, and this func-
tion must not be confused as to
which must take precedence.
The responsibilities of these
performers must first be to the
Department and to service the
undergraduates and graduate
students. To this end more than
half of their energy is devoted
to being the practical link be-
tween the composers and his-
torians on the faculty and the
concert program. Cognizant,
therefore, of the responsibility
of these musicians of the De-
partment at large to service the
academic community, the pol-
icy of this past year has been
to present two kinds of public
concerts: the first group was in-
tended to enrich the cultural
life of the University through
carefully selected programs of
masterpieces; the secojid group
to offer the means to under-
graduate and graduate students
for having their compositions
performed. This appears to be

an excellent compromise for
the use of the resident musi-
cians as well as other musi-
cians that arc added when
necessary. Finally, it is the
privilege and right of every de-
partment to change its policy
from year to year as it deems
necessary.

Whereas in the past I have
not been sympathetic to a pol-
icy of a diet of all experimen-
tal contemporary music, I feel
that Professor Sussman is un-
aware of the present balanced
fare and trust he will agree
with me that under the circum-
stances of trying to satisfy all
the needs, we have achieved the
proper balance. Utopia is around
the corner.

Justice at Last

To the Editor:

May I congratulate the
Justice and all associated with
it for the production of an out-
standing number (April 25
1966). The treatment of the is-
sues of proper, orderly, decent
government, under reasonable
rules and by due process, on
this Campus, marks a journal-
istic high.

May I make two points, the
more important one first.

If the President is correctly
quoted as stating that I have
"unhappily in (his) mind,
called in the students on this
matter. This is not academic
conduct," I heckrtily concur.

This, in my opinion, is what is
most wrong with the adminis-
trative mind and with "the
academy." in "this matter,"—
or any other matter affecting
t'he educational enterprise or
the common life — the persons
most nearly affected, most
bound to reach informed judg-
ments, and most obligatetl to
act on them are the faculty
and the students who are the
university. The very notion
that either party needs to be
"called in" on a vital decision
suggests that at least one (the
inferior) party is on the out-
side. I do not hold such a view
of students. And I do not be-
lieve either that they will much
longer tolerate such a status,
or that we, their profess* rs,
can continue to believe they
can be educated while being
treated otherwise as infants.

Moreover — to correct rep-
resentations I (we) did not call
them in "on this matter." We
simply continued telling thctn,
as we had more or less routine-
ly all year, what they needed
to know to take their proper
and dignified place in the com-
mon life of the Department.
And the issues were not
whether or not "to hold the
line on new slots," (or even
whether to accept the retrac-
tion of the line on old slots),
but the entire status of stu-
dents, faculty aiMl wib-Presi-
dential administrators alike,
•under unilateral, arbitrary, one
man government. (There never
was a "proposaF' for "every
Department except sociology"

The Controversy

Sociology Department's View

The Sollowing is a memo from ike Sociology Deparfmcnf given to THE
JUSTICE.

In the academic year now reaching its end, the Department of Sociology has
done or attempted to do a number of things that it has reason to think may be of
general interest.

From the beginning of the year, and basing itself on the evident qualities,
intellectual and moral, of its students and faculty, it has sought to go beyond
without damaging, the already excellent educational enterprise. For the sake
both of the educational and moral value inherent therein, it has given conscious
attention to the kind of intellectual and social community in which learning and
growth (for all) can best go forward. This has entailed the dropping of unsci-
entific, dogmatic, and absolutist views of how to educate and how to relate in the
process, in favor of a trial and error attempt to build the best community we can,
learning from each other and evaluating the experience under shared criteria of
right and reason. We took mutual trust and respect for granted, and the process
so far seenis to have served only to heighten it.

One kind of outcome has been the inauguration of a number of hard-working,
hard-thinking student or faculty-and-student groups dealing responsibly, in the
context of impending action, with a variety of problems, practical and philos-
ophic« in University education generally, in education in the department gen-
erally, or in matters more specific. Another kind of outcome has been the devel-
opment of a number of joint or several position-papers by students and/or
faculty. Another outcome has been a greatly increased mutual understanding
of each other as persons, and of previously unrecognized aspects of our several
situations and roles. ( When we
talk to each other now,
know better who we are talk-
ing to and what we are talki
about — which is no small

The Controversy

"E, Six Sociology Graduate Students ~
Report Meeting With President Sacha

President Sachar's View

The follou»ingf are excerpts from, President Sachar's conversation with
Bob Acker, Bob Berenson and Marty Pernick which ocurrcd on Friday May 6.

I was taken aback by the way this issue has escalated. Originally, we were
obliged to make a change in the number of new faculty appointments because
we were trying to hold on to the faculty already here. Sociology felt quite bad
about it — this was compounded by tlie fact that four of their senior people
were planning to go on leave. I think that by itself, this would not have
escalated to the point that it did. From the discussion of this particular case, it
moved out into the problem of who makes these decisions.

The unhappy part is that Brandeis and this particular administration should
be picked out as an exantple o.' autocracy. I don't know why this should hap^K'n.
For instance, we have now a problem of governance — the appointment of a
dean (of faculty). The present procedure is very orthodox in every univer.sity.
Here the appointment cannot be made until the (Faculty) Senate has approved,
but the ultimate authoriy should rest with the president, who mu.st work with
the dean; and not just with (Professor) Seeley and not just with the Sociology
Department. They (those who have complained about 'administration auto-
cracy' ) also wanted the Faculty Educational Policies Committee elected by the
faculty instead of appointed by the president with the advice of the Senate,
I don't like this because politics should not be injected into educational jK)licy.
Id addition there is the danger that the committee might come to represent only
the social sciences since the science men do not enjoy political wrangling. I
therefore recommended that the chairman of the departments, who are in 99%
of the cases appointed by the department and who have the most at stake here,

be the EPC. Who is better qual-
ified to sit with the administra-
tion and decide together what
is to be done?

These are two examples of
concrete results of arguments
on a doctrinal plane rather thaa
on a personal plane. I am sorry
that personal grievances and
bad language were used be-
cau.se that sort of thing gets

Professor John R. Seeley

Partly for these reasons,
partly because vrhat is going on
i& rapidly becoming a matter of
national note (and sometimes
scandal), and partly because
we have been peculiarly h«rt
vnder the present edict-system,
we have been directing our at-
tentiaa on matters of University
^^•▼emment generally, and on
matters concerning the govem-
ment af this University in par-
ticular. (Indeed we have a
graduate seminar for our stu-
dents and Heller School .stu-
dents that deals with education-
al innovation, and hence com-
pels attention to these matters) .
But here also our interests are
not only theoretic, since we held
ourselves bound, together with
all students and faculty, to ac-
cept appropriate responsibility
for the shape of our common
life in the University. Thus we
have been concerned, as have
others, with the centralisation
•f virtually all power in one
office, and with a number of re-
lated problems. What we are
committed to is very simple,
and a shared goal in many
places and an achieved goal in
some: the inauguration, as
rapidly as possible, in place of
t^e present sy.stem, of a scheme
of reasonable rules and due
processes, legislated as far as
may be by those most nearly
affected or by representatives
of their periodic choosing.

Since both our aims and
motViods have been the subject
of misrepresentation, we must
make both clear. What we asked
for, concretely, was a budget to
permit an increase of about 8%
for restitutive purposes, and
then the normal 8.75% which
the President reports to be the
average for the University. The
restitutive 8% may need ex-
planation. For years now, se-

ment (particularly those who

out the year, participating in
departmental decisions when-
ever possible. According to this
department's policy, the stu-
dents were informed by the
faculty of the removal of a
present tenured position and a
promised assistant professor-
ship in early March. On March
15 the students sent a letter to
President Sachar, expressing
concern for their education if
such a cut-back in the strength
of an expanding department
should indeed take place The
purpose of the meeting May 2
was to discuss with the Presi-
dent o»ur concern about the en-
tire situation, since he had not
answered our letter, and since
the resignations in the depart-
ment were impending. It was
this topic that we initially in-
troduced. The President intro-
duced other topics, includ-

ing university governance, the
duties of a President, his view
of the Sociology faculty, and
faculty-student relations.

We would especially like to
communicate his views on uni-
versity governance. President
Sachar feels that the govern-
ance of the university is solely
an administrative concern. He
stated, for example, that the
size of a department is the con-
cern of the administration and
not that of faculty and students.
He further stated that the uni-
versity is not a democracy, and
we must accept that fact.

As students who feel deeply
affected by the size of our de-
partment and the particular
faculty who are our teachers
and who also feel that the uni-
versity must become a demo-
cratic institution, we were and

are upset at the President's be-
lief that "accept or leave" are
the only possible alternatives.
The President felt that if at-
tempts at reform through
"proper channels" had failed,
the only alternatives for the
faculty were to "accept or
leave." We intend to do neither
and will stay and work for
change.

In addition, we were per-
sonally surprised and shocked
at the disrespect which we
sensed in the President's atti-
tude toward us and our depart-
ment. We would be glad to dis-
cuss our interview with any-
one. We urge students inter-
ested in Dr. Sachar's views on
the governance of the univer-
sity to attempt to make an ap-
pointment with tiim to discuss
such matters.

Committee Formed

Sociology Dept. Begins Reforms

Nancy Stoller

A series of reforms in the Sociology Department this year has led to greater student involve-
ment in the affairs of the Department. These changes, and others planned for the future, are
aimed at increasing the quality and creativity of teaching and course work.

Graduate students in sociology were informed last November that the Department would
employ an increasing number of students as teaching assistants this year and in the future. A
group of these graduate students began meeting to consider how best to utilize the talents and

abilities of both students and —

faculty. They immediately be- ducting the course. The Com- focused its attention on devel-

don't understand why this ex-
plosive approach has been taken
at a University with our top
faculty, high salaries, low
teaching load, finest faculties,
and departmental freedom of
recruitment.

We now have a functioning
body composed of faculty peo-
ple, administrators and trustees
to meet regularly and talk
things out. This was where I
made my proposal about the
EPC, which was welcomed by
them. These reforms ought to
be made, but they ought to be
done in an orderly way, with
dignity and without name call-
ing.

The Sociology Department is
an extreme group and are
known as such across the coun-
try, even among other .sociolo-
gists. This is the result of
Brandeis' liberal policy of not
questioning opinions in the hir-
ing of faculty. If they don't
get what they want they im-
mediately begin calling names.

Personally, I've got my hands
tied behind my back. If 1 de-
nounce a faculty man in return
for the blows I receive. I cut
myself off from those who sup-
port the University. I've got to
tell them that wo have the best
faculty we can get. You can't
stir these questions without
raising questioiLs in the public
mind. Now I don't want to be
quoted as saying that this
should be done just to avoid
fund-raising problems. It's a
matter of the way that it is
done. When it gets down to
personal vilification as it has
been done, the public gets the
wrong impression of Brandeis
as a whole.

What. then, is the role of the
president? Is he just a fund-
raiser as some of the faculty
have suggested, or is he an aca-
demic official too? I feel that
he must act as a co-ordinator.

Moy 10. 1966

Londes Confro Marcuse

^Objective History^

Edword Levy

Professor David Landes, Har-
vard social and economic his-
torian, proposed some answers
to the problems of social his-
tory, and made a defense of a
value-neutral social science.
His remarks were directed par-
ticularly against Professor Her-
bert Marcuse, who regards such
objectivity as spurious. On the
whole both aspects of his talk
were superficial.

Describing social history as
formerly "the garbage can of
history," a residual category
lacking cohesion, he sug-
gested a structural-functional
approach using sociological
methods, to serve as an alter-
native to less efficient or less
objective perspectives. Such
a model would entail "a sum-
mation of ordered patterns of
action by members of the
groups." Considering society as
a whole, it would be concerned
with the integrative rather than
the individual and unique, with
the quantitative more than with
the qualitative.

Although his method would
not deal merely with what is
measurable in history, it would
avoid pre-judgment or ideo-
logical ''commitments." Landes
objected to Marcuse's charac-
terizations of American society,
for example, as judgments
which "transcend" the facts,
derived more from conviction
and intuition than from data.
Reason and investigation, he
contends, are demoted in such
judgments, which, although of-
fering "the exciting path of
virtue," violate the obligation
of the scholar to strive for ob-
jectivity, albeit unattainable.

Landes, like many of Mar-
cuse's critics, manages to ignore
(transcend?) the substance of
his arguments in favor of their

tone. To say that Marcuse de-
motes reason is absurd. To say
that he demotes empirical evi-
dence is to ignore the founda-
tion of his argument against a
value-neutral social science,
namely, that it is possible to
make an objective, empirical
distinction between progress
and regression in history, be-
tween that which tends to pro-
mote human life and that which
is harmful to it — the possibil-
ity of discovering an "histori-
cal ought." If such a distinction
can be made, then Marcuse is
not abandoning objectivity in
favor of "commitment" but re-
defining it, substituting a con-
scious human "bias" for Lan-
des' holy grail of objectivity. A
more useful criticism would
have been to describe some of
the problems involved in this
definition.

Marcuse is not attempting to
impose values on history but
rather to find values in the facts
themselves, where Landes
thinks there are none. Selection
of facts involves not only sus-
pending one's commitments but
becoming conscious of subtler
ones. In this connection it was
pointed out that Landes' method
is itself not value-neutral; the
very terms "functional" and
"disfunctional" are tacit valu-
ations.

Another criticism was that
Landes' approach is a paradigm
offering nothing but the propo-
sition that all things are re-
lated. Though valuations can be
wrong, history would be worth-
less without them. That is to
say, objectivity is not only un-
attainable but undesirable. If
Landes cannot be wrong, nei-
ther can he be right. At best he
is irrelevant, as so much history
is already.

Surprise Lecture

Marcuse: Regressive Intolerance

By BERT FOER

EDITOR'S NOTE: Herbert Marcuse was Professor of Philosophy and Politics at Brarideis
until last year. He is presently Professor of Philosophy at the University of California at San
Diego.

Coming to terms with Herbert Marcuse is not listed in the catalog as a requisite for gradua-
tion, but what putative Brandeis scholar has not been influenced by this elder statesman of Hege^
llan progress? He returned April 30 to speak on "Repressive Tolerance and the Plight of the
University", a subject discussed in his cojitribution to A Critique of Putc Tolerance.

In the contemporary situation, according to Dr. Marcuse, general indiscriminate toler-
ance is no longer the progressive force it was in the 18th, l&t9i, and early 20th century. Today

in advanced industrial society,

there is a practically total if progress is objective, the The notion of objective prog-

meaningful only when it is rooted in a foundation of
liberal arts studies.

• It restores to students full recognition of their indi-
viduality and of their role as the central participant
in the educational process.

• It treats the undergraduate experience not as a sepa-

Tvhat is meaningful in the total human experience*

• It regards as the goal of a liberal arts education, not
only the acquisition of knowledge but, more impofw

habits of mind which are fundamental to all intellec-

• THE NEW SCHOOL COLLEGE is open to Students who
have satisfactorily completed the freshman and
sophomore years at recognized institutions of higher
learning. Courses of study are offered only in the area*
of The Humanities and The Social Sciences. The
degree is awarded on the basis of student perform*

man who had lost to Johnson

voted accordingly. Their vot-

To the Editor:

What is a university? Is it a
«roup of scholars sharing their
pursuit of knowledge, or is it
a profit-minded, image-con-
Mious business selling a prod-
lut and processing people like
packages of soap? It seems un-
fair that students have to ask
thtmselves questions like this
uhcn they have the right to
expect from the generations
that proceeded them univer-
sities that can uphold the con-
ditions of scholarship. Certain-
ly a university has to take in
money and pay for the time of
piofcssors and for research fa-
cilities, but that it does so is no
ji^n of its value to society nor
a M^jn of its health. No amount
of money paid a professor in
an American university ade-
<iuately compensates him for
thr tremendous efforts he de-
Aotis to his work. Any busi-
nessman can tell you that out-
fide the university a man with
the comparable ability and ed-
luation earns at least twice as
much as he does inside Then
wJiat is the reason that men
band together to form a fac-
ulty? And what are the condi-
tions that make it impossible
lor them to continue?

One of the things that brings
people to a university is a hope
that within its walls they will
be able to find the time and

conditions under which they
can extend man's knowledge
of the universe and of himself.
They want to do this because
it gives them a greater sense
of freedom than anything else.
It is not an easy path to take,
but it has earned the respect
of most of the people of our
society. Some would like to be-
lieve that these are idle ideals,
but they may be the most im-
portant substance that makes a
healthy university. The case of
the University of Pittsburgh is
a recent example of how a fac-
ulty which had built a spirit of
academic excellence chose to
maintain a university right
through a period of financial
bankruptcy which would have
meant death to a mere busi-
ness. Most American univer-
sities skate near the brink of
financial disaster, because it is
an easy thing to do with an
organization whose solidarity
is not based on profit, and
which will not disintegrate on
a word from the accounting of-
fice.

But there is something that
causes universities, or depart-
ments of universities to dis-
band. We have a case before us
here at Brandeis, and unfortu-
nately we have had cases be-
fore this one. It is a hard thing
to explain to the economic
mind that the spirit of a uni-
versity can go, and so can its
excellence, yet it can continue
to function taking in some

is. Maybe we should reexamine
the condition of Brandeis. The
question to ask is : is the system
that brought together the fac-
ulty of Brandeis, who estab-
lished the standards of quality
which it now enjoys, neces-
sarily the best system for main-
taining those standards in the
future? Brandeis started with
an ideal and lots of money. The
money got people to come and
organize around the ideal. The
money can get more people to
come but it can't keep the ideal
alive, for that has taken root
in the people. If money is used
to attack the people it can now
kill the ideal. Brandeis is built
on more than money, and more
than money is necessary to keep
it healthy.

that education is a business are
right, in this situation. Knowl-
edge becomes a commodity to
be bought, sold, accumulated
and invested, and the Univer-
sity is the marketplace.

Our concern, then, is to
create a situation in which edu-
cation can be more meaningful,
and in which we, the faculty,
graduate students, and under-
graduates, can live decent, self-
respecting and free lives, parti-
cipating in the affairs of our
community, and not subject to
sudden, arbitrary and irreversi-
ble action. This requires action
in two directions. First, elirn-
inating the absolute and arbi-
trary power which exists in the
University administration; and
secondly, creating among the
University community, stu-
dents and faculty alike, a gen-
uine community in which our
values and ideals are expressed
in day-to-day action.

These, then, are the issues.
They are not a "crisis" which
we can resolve, at this point,
by direct action. We must first
discuss among ourselves, and
with the faculty, exactly what
we want in terms of educa-
tional and administrative re-
form. And we must also care-
fully build the power base
from which we can make our
demands meaningful. Both are
long-term projects, not to be

matter of his courses. There al-
ways seemed to be a line drawn
between teaching and indoc-
trination; this line, however,
seems endajigered by his cri-
tique of pure tolerance.

Objective progress is truth;
it is known by reason. When
one knows the truth, he gives
aid and comfort to the enemy
by tolerating error. According
to Dr. Marcuse, tolerance
should be reserved for those
who seek after objective prog-
ress. Or, as he seemed to say,
true tolerance exists only when
the opposition (the forces of
objective progress, i.e. the
Marcusean school ) obtains
power. That this opposition has
not come to power is thus proof
In itself that there is no real
tolerance, but only disguised
refyression dressed in sheep's
wool. And this sheep's wool,
ealling itself tolerajice, is a
form of totalitarianism as den-
gerous and wicked as any other
form of totalitarianism. This
seems to me what Dr. Marcuse
is saying, and I can only con-
clude with Humpty Dumpty
that words mean precisely
what a person wants them to
mean, and nothing nwre. Our
labor movement may be stand-
stillish, for instance, but that
doesn't mean American society
is as totalitarian in its crushing
f»f opoo«?ition as Nazi Germany.
Tt\e distinction should be clear.

Can Absorb Criticism

I don't intend to say that tol-
erance cannot operate in such
a way as to absorb criticism.
But abforbtioji is a lot older
than industrial -ociety. and one
can come to an understanding
of how criticisTTi is absorbed
without Dr. Marcuse's analy-
sis. It should be kept in mind,
moreover, that absorbtion
works both ways; ^he critics
sto-p crilici/ing «»o loudly, but
the institution changes too.

John Locke long ago realized
the possibilities of honest dif-
ferences of opinion, and pro-
posed that the law recognize a
distinction botweeji thought
and action. Enthusiasts could
believe what they would, but
in the public realm truth
would be discovered through a
democratic process. Poor,
bungling, obtuse, nearsighted
Locke still makes enough sense

to me so that I must oppose the
Marcusean TYue Believers whe
would objectively imipose Xhm
truth on those of us who are
not so intellectually favored.
Indeed, I would reject the pa-
ternalism of the word "toler-
ance" and speak instead of

ferent and which I don't think

A Univergily

To the Editor:

What is a university? Is it a
«roup of scholars sharing their
pursuit of knowledge, or is it
a profit-minded, image-con-
Mious business selling a prod-
lut and processing people like
packages of soap? It seems un-
fair that students have to ask
thtmselves questions like this
uhcn they have the right to
expect from the generations
that proceeded them univer-
sities that can uphold the con-
ditions of scholarship. Certain-
ly a university has to take in
money and pay for the time of
piofcssors and for research fa-
cilities, but that it does so is no
ji^n of its value to society nor
a M^jn of its health. No amount
of money paid a professor in
an American university ade-
<iuately compensates him for
thr tremendous efforts he de-
Aotis to his work. Any busi-
nessman can tell you that out-
fide the university a man with
the comparable ability and ed-
luation earns at least twice as
much as he does inside Then
wJiat is the reason that men
band together to form a fac-
ulty? And what are the condi-
tions that make it impossible
lor them to continue?

One of the things that brings
people to a university is a hope
that within its walls they will
be able to find the time and

conditions under which they
can extend man's knowledge
of the universe and of himself.
They want to do this because
it gives them a greater sense
of freedom than anything else.
It is not an easy path to take,
but it has earned the respect
of most of the people of our
society. Some would like to be-
lieve that these are idle ideals,
but they may be the most im-
portant substance that makes a
healthy university. The case of
the University of Pittsburgh is
a recent example of how a fac-
ulty which had built a spirit of
academic excellence chose to
maintain a university right
through a period of financial
bankruptcy which would have
meant death to a mere busi-
ness. Most American univer-
sities skate near the brink of
financial disaster, because it is
an easy thing to do with an
organization whose solidarity
is not based on profit, and
which will not disintegrate on
a word from the accounting of-
fice.

But there is something that
causes universities, or depart-
ments of universities to dis-
band. We have a case before us
here at Brandeis, and unfortu-
nately we have had cases be-
fore this one. It is a hard thing
to explain to the economic
mind that the spirit of a uni-
versity can go, and so can its
excellence, yet it can continue
to function taking in some
money, paying salaries, cutting
the grass, building buildings,
and processing undergraduates.
In this condition it doesn t
grow in stature and reputation,
new faculty come reluctantly,
and graduate students don't
seek it out. Naively hoping to
be inspired or educated, under-
graduates come only to find
themselves being processed as
economic units from lower to
higher earning capacity. They
hardly find the courage to step
off the Ihreadmill before they
are ejected into the greater
world where they find their
true education.

Winning Habits Eyes First Win

With three weeks of the season gone, the tennis team
stands above .500, at 5-4, and seem^ destined to remain so for
the year. Saturday's 5-4 victory over Stonehill has fairly well
assured the ni'tmen of a winning season.

In that crucial match, captain Larry Grylack continued his
phenomenal singles success, winning his eighth of nine deci-
sions, while Bernie Rous, play- —

Those favoring the extra vacation argued that without it

Censorship Crisis

Mass

e n7 ^**>oO' the student humor magazine at the University
of Massachusetts, has come under fire this week for orintinc
an allegedly "blasphemous" cartoon.

State Senator K. B. Harrington' of Salem has instigated an
investigation of the Yahoo and of student publications at the
University of Massachusetts in general, by calling into question
the relationship between the*.

curs often after Thanksgiving.

The proposed change in re-
ceptionist hours was based, in
part, on the results of a poll
conducted last montli by the
Student Council. The poll, ac-
cording to backers of the
change, showed general stu-
dent support of llie receptionist
plan, originally formulated by
the Student Affairs Committee
last term, but s-howed dissatis-
faction with particular aspects
of the program. Proponents of
the plan al.so argued that it
would save the University
money, and provide greater
convenience for the women
residents.

Opponents of the plan cited
the desirability of having the
receptionists on duty for se-
curity reasons. They also men-
tioned the need to' have some
presence of the rule system in
the dormitories. They as.^erted
that the receptionists should
"perform various services in
the lounge besides locking the
door."

According to the Collegian,
neither faculty nor Administra-

with the attackers of the Ya-

UMass has criticized what he
termed the "bad taste" of the

to suppress it. The UMass fac-
ulty is about to issue a state-
ment on the affair which, it is
rumored, will "defend the Uni-

Speculation has it that the

The Steering G>mmitte«

Editor's Note: The jollowing is a policy siaUment iirajted by the Steering Commitee o/
the Brandeis Movement jor University Rejorm.

The University reform movement has formulated a basic level of agreement on its pur-
poses and goals and seeks wider participation of students and faculty in its activities. We are
concerned with no single instance of abusive, arbitrary power; we challenge the legitimacy of
arbitrary administration and its notions of education.

The educational enterprise consists of that which goes on between students and faculty.
Universities are instituted with private and public funds to create a setting in which the educa-
tional enterprise can be carried — — —

on without interterence. The ^j^^^ j^^ ^^ ..j^ j^^^ parentis," ocratic processes will give the

FUB

The concept of the Free University is one of the most
exiiting new ixperiments in the held of higiier education.
Fiom its birthplace in California, the idea spread, first to New
York, and then to educational centers across the nation. We
welcome the advent of the Free University of Brandeis as a
vital and woilhwhile addition to Brandeis education and to
the Boston college community as a whole.

The Free University of Brandeis would offer courses in
areas of student interest not taken into account by the regular
curriculum. In this way its ideal is to develop competence in
personal interests and not necessarily the societal interests that
the modern American University seems obsessed with.

The notion that a University could be run without credit
or degree, teaching courses that the students and teachers alone
have decided to teach, is one of the most revolutionary ad-
vances over the modern university system. The thought that
there might still be students who study solely for the joy of
learning or teachers who teach for spiritual, rather than
monetary reward is indeed heartening.

Yet, like any experiment, the Free University of Brandeis
runs many risks. On the one hand, it can fall prey to a single
doctrine or ideology, which would stifle the freedom of the
school and drive many potential students elsewhere; on the
otlu r, it may fall F^rey to the type of organization it seeks to
avoid and become no more than an advisory committee on new
courses lor the establishment.

Yahoo, Shazamf

One of the most comic outpourings of the usually comic
Massachusetts State Legislature is the current "investigation"
©f the University of Massachusetts student humor magazine,
the Yahoo. An allegedly "blasphemous" cartoon in the Yahoo,
which seems to us to be no more offensive than cartoons in
national magazines with incomparably greater circulation, has
seivtMl as the occasion for unleashing an almost medieval re-
action of vilification and censorship at the hitherto free student
press at UMass. It has also served as the occasion for turning
the public's attention away from a far more important, and
to the Volpe administration, far more damaging hearing on
higher education that is simultaneously being conducted.

We will not stoop to discussing whether or not the cartoon
in question (which depicts a cleric pulling a rabbit out of a
chalice with the caption, "Shazam") is "blasphemous." Such a
discussion would be pointless, since whether the cartoon is
blasphemous or not, any attempt to interfere with the publish-
ing of the "Yahoo" is an interference with the freedom of the
press. In the second place, the Yahoo is subordinate, not only
to the Student Senate, which supports it (along a plan similar
to Brandeis' SAF but also to the Administration of the Uni-
versity of Massachusetts. An attack on the Yahoo in the hys-
terical fashion the State Senate has hitherto displayed, is an
attack upon the integrity of the University as well.

The Justice congratulates the Administration of the UMass
upon its refusal to yield to these misdirected legislative pres-
sures. This steadfastness is in bright contrast to the shoddy
political tasks to which the Massachusetts legislature thinks fit
to put an innocuous cartoon. We also congratulate the student
body of UMass upon its wholehearted response against State
medievalism and for a free press. We hope that the UMass stu-
dents will continue to exhibit the steadfastness under pressure
that has characterized its Administration, and that it will not
take action on the Yahoo until the current political dust has
settled, at least.

Letters to the Editor

Wealth Makes Health

It's funny that we need a full-time psychiatrist. Are Bran-
deis students so disturbed that a part-time staff won't suffice?
Psychiatrists have long told us that repression is a major source
of mental illness. At the same time, Brandeis students have
been attacked by the petty- t>ourgeois power elite as being too
unrepressed. Either they are wrong, or the psychiatrists are.
It must be the psychiatrists.

Thus, the very fact that a full-time psychiatrist is coming
to Brandeis implies that we can no longer have faith in psy-
chiatry itself. In an age which has witnessed the decline of
faith in Church. State, and Press, we must watch with bared
heads the last agonies of a discredited Couch. It might upset
us if it weren't so funny.

It is to be hoped that the irony of the situation will prove
beneficial to the health of the student body. The person who
knows how to laugh is a happy person. Soon all Brandeis will
be laughing and happy. The new psychiatrist, by virtue of his
presence alone, will create health and happiness.

The Jii2>Ucc is pleased to welcome Dr. Posin. Ha, Ha, Ha . . .

Sri'lry Coiiinifitls

To the Editor:

Whatever can be said at this
late point in the academic year
in reference to what the Justice
justly calls "The Controversy"
has a certain valedictory char-
acter. Nevertheless, it is worth
saying, because there is next
year . . . and jiext . . . until the
groundwork for a decent Uni-
versity government is laid.

There is something very sad
about the Administration's in-
ability to kcK^p track of the
facts — I am assuming that
their misrepresentations are
not deliberate! — to compre-
hend the issues, or to under-
stand where the American Uni-
versity generally, as well as
this University in particular,
stands in history. Let me say
a few words on each point.

The general disorientation
of the Administration is indi-
cate<l in the three opening sen-
tences (Justice, May 10, p. 3):
"I was taken aback by the way
this issue has escalated. Orig-
inally we were obligated to
make a change in the number
of new faculty appointments
. . . Sociology fi^lt quite bad
about it . . ." In the same vein,
King George III might have
written: "We were quite sur-
prised by the way this isfnie
escalated. Originally, we were
obliged to raise revenue by
taxing tea . . . Boston mer-
ctiants felt quite bad about
it . . ."

What are the facts? Some of
them are these, (a) The act
to which the President points is
near the end, rather than at the
beginning of a long process of
arbitrary, petty tyrannizing in
reference to the Sociology De-
partment, and of meddling in
its internal affairs Coping with
these periodic assults has oc-
cupied a great deal of ttie time
and energy of previous Depart-
men chairmen also, (b) The
object of most of the interfer-
ence is everywhere clear: it is
to punish by economic means
any faculty member who has
oppo5»ed any aspect of the eon-
duet of the Presidential ofAce
(as in the Aberle affair). Op-

position is what the President
calls "bad academic citizen-
ship." And he punishes the
acts even after he is forced to
withdraw the charges. The of-
fense is not e<'onomic: it is
moral, (c) Moreover, the Presi-
dent proposes to continue. As
late as last wc^k, when talking
concc-ssions with a member of
the Department, the President
stated that whether or not he
would return to selective re-
prisals the following year
would "depend on how you be-
have ..." Later he withdrew
and reformulated this state-
ment, (d) Petty interference in
the internal affairs of depart-
ments is not limited to Sociol-
ogy, (e) Nor are tyrannous
acts directed only against fac-
ulty. Deans are not immune
(we can hardly keep track of
them): and students are not
exempt (we barely avoided the
scandal of twenty-five-a-day
student expulsions two years
a«?o). This vear we had to fight
the administration to reverse
its decision to punish two in-
coming (!) graduate students
for an alleced administrative
laxity of the detvartment in
years gone by (f) Reme<lies
ifor these intolerable conditions
would have been songtit and
were being sought by many
narties on many hands anyway.
The so-called "Sociology De-
n a r t m e n t Grievance" —
like the tea tax — was a pre-
cipit^iting incident, (g) What
helped in the precipitation was
the President's reply to one
last cabled appeal to him to
reconsider, because of its con-
sequences, his unilateral
breach of promise regarding
staffing. His cable ended: ". . .
Are you really intending to
challenge the fiscal authority
of this University? The posi-
tions cannot be budgeted.
Just try it. Love and kisses,
Abram Sachar." Since what
we had "challenged" was the
propriety of a last-minute, un-
negotiated reduction of depart-
ment strength after educational
commitments had been made
on administration - sponsored
contrary assumptions (the
"table of organization") we
felt bound to accept the invita-
tion to "Uy it ' ih) We put our

case to the Senate both for rec-
tification in its own right (our
minor objective) and as an-
other ex.ample of maladmiii is-
tration of the University for
which remedies must be sought
(our major objective), (i) The
Senate concluded that the Ad-
ministration's procedure with
us had been improper, and
asked it to re-engage in a
proper procedure. This has not
been done so far (although
what might be a negotiation
session is planned for next
week). The Senate also con-
cluded (on the basis of much
evidence, new and old, besides
our complaint) that there were
serious problems of University
government, and they askcKi
the Trustees to hold hearings.
These have been, I understand,
summarily refused; and the
Board has, without proper in-
quiry, simply reasserted its
confidence in the President So
nrYuch for "orderly processes.'*
(j) Meanwhile, the Adminis-
tration has confused itself out
of all knowing by:

(i) Listening to and accred-
iting untrue rumors (e.g., that
we had held a "press confer-
ence," that we had admitted a
Crimson reporter to a meeting
with department graduates,
and that, incredibly — a Dean
phoned me to ask where! —
the Chairman was leatling a
campus-wide student rally).

ii) Imagining things on its
own, such as "bad language
and name-calling." The only
reference I know of to the
President as a person occured
in a public-policy document
where I said that "nothing
herein" should be taken to im-
pugn him as a person or re-
flect upon his private char-
acter or diminish the credit
due for his other public per-
formances.

(iii) Misreading documents
it had no business to have —
such as a memorandum inter-
nal to the Department, impro-
perly removed from the De-
partment office, improperly
accepted by at least two offi-
cers of administration, and im-
properly (as well as mistaken-
ly) read, and quoted by the

Notes From Random

Chuck Coldfarb

Wiling away the hours in the environs of the gym as sports
editor, baseball manager, and general enthusiast can be quite
constructive, for as Yogi Berra once commented, "You can ob-
serve a lot by just watching." I have a few suggestions and a
few complaints that have been ruminating inside me as a result
of just watching.

Withdraw from G.B.L.

Most of my thoughts are on
baseball. As manager, I have
first-hand knowledge of the
team statistics. I can, therefore,
authoritatively describe Bran-
deis' position with relation to
the Greater Boston League. I
shall avoid the gory details and
just say, let's get out! There is
nothing more humiliating than
to lose to Harvard, 27-9, and
yet know that this was our best
performatice against the Crim-
son \i\ several years. MIT is in
the same boat; their coach and
the Boston Globe have inti-
mated that a second league for
the weaker Boston area teams
is desirable. Coach HughciJ and
all the baseball players feel the
same. How about a revised
schedule?

Play Bull in Fall

The revision need not simply
mean a schedule with new
teams on it. A shift from Spring
to Autumn baseball would lead
to improvement. The Judges
presently compete at even
greater odds against New Eng-
land weather than against their
opponents. One week of out-
doors practice is not enough!
The pitchers can hardly be ex-
pected to get loose or the bat-
ters to develop their rhythm.
Thus, when Brandeis opens it.^
season in mid-April, it is un-
prepared to face competition
which has taken a two-week
tour of the Southland for
Spring training.

Yet, the University refuses
to provide the team with spring
vacation contests with Daytona
Junior College. Instead, the
University has allowed Jim
Boyce, Steve Katzman and, in
the past. Freddy Marden to
throw out their arms.

Avoid Injuries

Fall baseball would avoid
such injuries. Players would
return to school for Orientation
Week when they could partici-
pate in concentrated practices
without schoolwork hanging
over their heads. No player
could excuse his poor physical
condition on the weather. The
season could begin by the time
classes do and could be over by
late October — in time for pre-
season basketball practice.

The main argument against
fall baseball is that it conflicts
with our opponents' football
schedules But two-letter men
have always been on the very
same teams which should be
dropped from our schedule:
Harvard, B.C., Northeastern.
et al. A league composed of
Brandeis. MIT. Clark. SufTolk.
Stonchill, and the like would

be competitive and free of foot-
ball. How about this major
change in schedule?

Don't Add Insult to Injury

A more humble request now:
can't all players who have par-
ticipated in varsity athletics be
invited to the All Sports Ban-
quet? Why should it be closed

Brandeis Nine Trips MIT, Hartford;
Boyce, Shamres Are Winning Huriers

The baseball team finally put together good pitching, solid hitting, and fine fielding for vic-
tories over MIT and Hartford last week. Jim Boyce and Jon Shamres surrendered only 7 hits
apiece, and were backed by 20 Brandeis hits and a strong defense which permitted only one
error in the two games.

The 5-4 victory over MIT was sweet revenge for the 30-11 shellacking Brandeis suffered at
their hands earlier this season. The team had to overcome a 4-0 first inning deficit, and didn't

Sailing Club
Big Success

Intercollegiate Sailing Asso-
ciation at Stonehill, and fourth
at the Coast Guard Academy
on May 7.

Daii Perlman sailed the A
Division races, aided by crew
Ahmad Djudzman '67, while
the B Division was skip|>ered
by Dave Rosenblum '68 with
Bruce Mittleman '63 and Steve

The MIT runs were unearned
as an error set up a bases

Both Boyce and the defense
tightened the rest of the way
as MIT was completely con-
tained while the Judges chipped
away at the lead. Eric Epstein
scored an unearned run in the
second, and Bob Plunkett drove
in George Frost in the fifth, to
set the stage for the winning
3-run seventh inning rally.

Four Hits in Winning Rally

Frost opened the seventh
with an ipfield hit. With one
down, Boyce beat out a hit to
short; Frost alertly raced to
third when the fielder couldn't
handle the ball. Shamres sin-
gled to left for a run. Then
Plunkett singled through the
middle, driving in the tying
run and sending Shamres to
third. Barry Berlin's grounder
scored the winning run.

Boyce held the lead, ending
the game auspiciously by strik-
ing out the side in the ninth in-
ning. His E.R.A. plummeted to
2.08.

Meanwhile, the Judges had

B&M Tickets

The price of Boston and
Maine Railroad tickets has
been changed to 37 cents each
for all Brandeis students. The
tickets are made available to
students by the Administration,
which pays a considerable
amount to subsidize reduced
fares. The new price, which
includes a 7 cent Increase over
last year's fare, came as a result
of student opposition to a plan
which would have charged
non-SAF students a higher rate
than those who had paid the
lee.

Paychecks

As a result of an Internal
Revenue Bureau decision to
end the past practice of paying
student help out of petty cash,
all student employees of the
University must now be paid
by check and have tax with-
held from their salaries. Pay-
checks cannot be cas'hed at the
bookstore but must be re-
deemed at the Accounting Of-
fice in Bernstein-Marcus Thurs-
day or Friday afternoons.

Freshman Curfews

The policy of having early
curfews for freshman girls has
been ended. The old system,
which required first term fresh-
man girls to be in their dorms

women proved difficult tq en-
force in dormitories containing
women in both categories.

This year's SAF collection is
proceeding more rapidly than
last year's. According to Stu-

Silver about 1500 undergrad-
uates have paid fhe 35 dollar
fee.

Spring: Vacatio-n

The spring semester calendar
has been changed to add a four
day weekend on March 24-28.
The change was made at the
suggestion of the Student Af-

additional break in the calen-
dar, due to the lateness of
Spring vacation this year.

Compromise Quells Dining Hall Crisis
After Council Demands Quick Action

A compromise reached last Friday between the Administration and representatives of the
student body has averted a major crisis over the University's dining hall policy.

The crisis was triggered by a University decision to require all residents of Shapiro A
and B halls, in Hamilton Quadrangle, to eat in Kutz Hall, in North Quad. Coupled with this
was a decision to require all students to eat all meals in the dining hall to which they were
assigned.

At its meeting Thursdayl^
night Student Council voted to
demand action to change these
policies, within a 24 hour
■period.

The compromise allows any
student to eat lunch or dinner
in any dining hall by signing
up in his own dining hall 24
hours in advance. It also pro

vides for the assignment of
Shapiro A and B residents to
Sherman Dining Hall for
breakfast.

The plan does not change the
luncli and dinner assignments
of the residents of Shapiro A
and B but allows all students
to eat in any dining hall, re-
gardless of assignment, at those
two meals, by signing up.

The plan came out of a meet-
ing involving Student Council
President Brian Marcus, '67,
Council representatives Marty
Pernick, '68, former Residence
Committee Chairman Marlys
Moses, '67, Director of Business
Administration David Rolbein,
and Director of Dining Hall
Services Norman Grimm. The
meeting was held after Student
Council, which met Thursday
night, demanded action by
midnight Friday to correct stu-
dent grievances.

Also included in the com-
promise is a promise to restore
the alternate hot meal pro-
gram, the so-called "hamburg-
er option," by Monday.

The compromise, reached at
12:30 p.m. Friday came just in
time to satisfy a protest meet-
ing called for 1:00 p.m. the
same day.

Council Chosen;
Includes Trustees

student Council President
Brian Marcus, '67, has an-
nounced the formation of a new
committee to deal with Uni-
versity affairs, on which trus-
tees, administrators, faculty,
and students will be repre-
sented.

The committee, to be called
the Advisory Council on Uni-
versity affairs, will meet
monthly to discuss important
policy matters.

Members of the committee
include Trustees Rabb, Scharf-
man, Farber and as an alter-
nate member, Wien. The ad-
ministrators are President
Sachar, Dean of Planning and
Development Berger, and Dean
of Students Driscoll. The pro-
fessors are Dean of Academic
Administration Diamandopou-
los. Faculty Senate President
MacMullen and AAUP Chapter
President Gilbert. The students
are Council President Brian
Marcus, Vice-President Phil
S a p e r i a, and a third to be
chosen. The student choices
may be subje<^t to some change,
however, as several members of
the Student Council have ex-
pressed opposition to having
two of the three students com-
ing from the Council Executive
Board.

Student Council, meeting Thursday night, voted to "offi-
cially censure B & G for the blatant and completely disrespectful
treatment of the Brandeis Student Union during Freshman Ori-
entation Week."

The censure, which was passed by a vote of 10-2-0, followed
numerous complaints received by the Council from freshmen,

frthcir parents, and the members
of the Orientation Committee.
The complaints alleged total
mismanagement and disregard
of students in the distribution
of freshman room keys, failure
to provide services to freshmen
which had been agreed on by
Buildings and Grounds, failure
to live up to written commit-
ments to the Orientation Com-
mittee, and rudeness to those
students seeking to correct the
situation.

also passed the following reso-
lution: ''Student Council re-

Course Review
Spurs Variety
Of Reactions

The Student Course Evalua-
tion, published last summer by
the Educational Policies Com-
mittee of the Student Council,
has provoked much comment
both on and off campus.

The Evaluation, which con-
centrated on reviewing General
Education courses, was com-
piled from questionnaires cir-
culated last spring to students

EPC Pass-Fail Plan
Adopted by College

A system under which students may take courses outside
their field of specialization without receiving formal letter
grades was adopted this summer by the University, as the
result of a proposal by the Educational Policies Committee o<
the Student Council.

The plan, considered a revolutionary advance in liberal
education, is already in effect. Under the plan, upperclassmen
may take four semester courses with grades to be recorded
solely as "pass" or "fail." Only one semester course per term
may be taken on "pass-fail" and only one during the sophomore
year.

The grade of "pass" covers the grades from D — to A.

Full credit will be awarded for a grade of "pass," but the

course will not be counted in the computation of the academic

average, even if it is failed.

— _ 41 The new plan is designed to

encourage students to take dif-
ficult courses outside their own
field without endangering their
averages. A course taken on
"pass-fail" may not be used to
satisfy either General Educa-
tion or concentration require-
ments.

Reaction to the plan has beea
overwhelmingly favorable.

Among those commenting fa-
vorably on the new plan was
President Abram L. Sachar
who called it "an example of
how a student proposal can be
adopted as University ix)licy
through a spirit of cooperation
between students, faculty, and
the University."

Another University official
who had praise for the plan
was Dean of Academic Admin-
istration Peter Diamandopoulos,
who said, "I think it's great. I
was especially pleased to see
that the program was initiated
by students. 1 see it as a bal-
ance of the conventional sense
of training, with a chance to
think in areas outside of one's
professions."

Not all administrators react-
ed favorably to tlie system.
University Registrar Cliarles
Duhig reportedly opposed the
plan as being a form of legal-
ized shirking of student re-
j sponsibility.

New Deans

Several major changes
have been made over the
summer in the Office of Dean
of Students.

Matthew Sgan, formerly
an assistant to the Dean, has
been appointed As.sociate
Dean. Dean Leonard Zion
has moved to a position with
the Hiatt Institute and will
also be taking graduate
courses in the Florence Hell-
er School. John Rich, an as-
sistant to the Dean, will be
leaving shortly to work with
the Peace Corps.

Dr. John P. Roche, Morris
Hilquit Professor of Labor and
Social Thought, has been ap-
pointed a special consultant to
President Johnson.

The appointment has created
a good deal of controversy both
on and off the campus. Roche's
predecessor had resigned in
anger only a few days before
over what he termed tlie Presi-
dent's loss of contact with and
lack of respect for the Ameri-
can and world intellectual com-
munity. It has long \)vvn noted
[that the U.S. policy in Vietnam
has alienated many leading
.scholars and intellectuals from
the President.

On the Brandeis campus,
Roche's popuarity has under-
I gone many ups and downs. In
I pre-Johnson days, Roche was
' regarded by the majority of the
j student body, according to most
\ campus observers, as one of the
i most liberal and outspoken fac-
ulty members. His classes were
well attended and his extra-
curricular activities, most nota-
bly his performance a. auction-
eer at the annual Charity W«'ek
Auction, were extremely popu-
lar. Only a small minority o£
students complained about his
teaching manner.

The first sign of student dis-
enchantment with Roche came
in privately expressed reactions
to a Justice article last year in
which Roche defended .he
United States Vietnam policy.
Since that time his popularity
among both students and fac-
ulty has reportedly decreased
markedly. The new appoint-
ment of Dr. Roche has appar-
ently alienated a large number
of his former supporters on
campus. However, an informal
poll showed that a significant
minority still support his posi-
tion,

avoid the intolerable adminis-
trative atmo^ipliere. Ti»e ideals
basic to our University, or to
any good University, are being
corroded. We are increasingly
cheated out of the education we
came here for. Since the Admin-
istration shows no signs of re-
forming itself, it becomes our
true concern, as students, to
see that these conditions are
altered. The choice for each
student is either to commit
himself, through silence, to
•bedience, or to demand the
education that is rig^htfully his.
At Brandeis, to demand that
education is to demand the re-
form which will permit that ed-
ucation. It would be nice if we
could voice our aims through
*'due process." but due process
exists at Brandeis only when it
works for the Administration.
A movement is needed to em-
body the student voice. We are
that movement.

Dr. Sachar's position is that
a redistribution of power is not
possible He asks. "Who is the
umpire here if not the Presi-
dent . . . ?" We answer that an
umpire does not decide the
rules of the game, he does not

come to the field one day and
move third base to left field,
and he is not manager of one
of the teams.

Dr. Sachar's position is rep-
resented by another poor anal-
ogy. We refer to his comment
that. "I wouldn't trust those
guys to run a grocery store."
(Harvard Crimson, May 10,
'66) It may very well be that
the faculty could not run a gro-
cery store. They are men who
chose the life of an intellectual
and educator, not of a business-
man. And the University is
more than a business.

If Dr. Sachar views himself
and the Board of Trustees as
managers, and the faculty as
the employee.?, then students
must be the raw material and
products of this big business.
We reject such a role, and we
expect the faculty to reject a
role as assembly line employ-
ees. Our intention is to trans-
form the "knowledge factory"
into a free and democratic in-
tellectual community.

Among the issues with which
we are concerned are the fol-

want a voice in how, when, and

not convinced that expensive
buildings are more important
than decreased tuition or in-
creased scholarships. We chal-
lenge the directive which de-
cided to increase the enroll-
ment and, moreover, to do so
before adequate facilities were
provided. We want depart-
ments to have the autonomy to
use their budget appropriations
according to their own discre-
tion, needs, and aspirations.

Educational reform. Brandeis
has a student and faculty com-
mittee on educational policy
which has no power to finalize
educational policy. If not stu-
dents and faculty then who?

a businessman? a baseball um-
pire? We look to a more mean-
ingful role for this committee,
and to a restructured school
without the present paranoia of
departmentalization and pri-
vatization.

and there are man> more, are
symptoms of an underlying
problem to which we, all of us,
must address ourselves. Bran-
deis history has seen protests
against specific issues, but these
have been defeated by threats
from the administration and by
student insecurity — ('Ts this
the mature and responsible
thing to do?"). The reform
movement will not be intim-
idated, and it does not confuse
maturity with passive ot>edi-
ence.

The Budget

versity is able to get low-
interest bank loans."

Dean Loomis noted that the
$4900 average cost per student
is among the highest in the
country, although comparable
figures are hard to compute
because of the number of vari-
ables. Many well-known
schools have costs per student
of half the Brandeis figure.

Budget Increases

The budget has increased
dramatically in recent years. In
1956, the campus plant was val-
ued at about 12 million and op-
eration and maintenance costs
came to $450,000. Ten years
later, the science quadrangle
alone was valued at 11-12 mil-
lion and its operating and
maintenance costs were $450,-
000. out of a total budget in
maintenance-operation of 1.3
million.

Dean Loomis said that "the
goal of the University from a
financial view should be to
spend all that is taken in less
a prudent reserve for wear.
There is something wrong from
an educational standjK)int in
making a lot of money." At
Brandeis. he said, "the financial
situation is not plus, but it is
not in a crisis state either."

Brandeis' financial areas of
concern can be seen by com-
paring its educational-operat-
ing income sources with Wes-
leyan and Harvard on a per-
centage basis:

Letters to the Editor

(Continued from Page 2)

President lo the Department's
own students.

(iv) Believing the output of
its own P. R. department, such
as the statement that " a group
ol faculty members has in-
volved not only the press but
also the student body as a
means of gaining attention for
their personal grievances with
the University admin-istration."
What press — except the stu-
dent press which is just an-
«jther way of talking to "the
student body?" What personal
grievances? The personally ag-
giieved have been the quietest
lliroughout. If I have led in
stating their grievances — and
in the much more important
statements of sustained ad-
ministrative offence against the
whole University community —
1 have made clear that not only
have I no "personal griev-
ance," but that 1 have been
generously treated personally.
Indexed over-generously. to the
degree that 1 asked the Presi-
dent and Trustees to reduce
somewhat their offered salary
to me for next year (if I'm
here).

It is bad enough for the Ad-
ministration to coniuse itself
and be taken in by its own
misrepresentations. It is im-
portant that we should not be
so fooled as well.

Government such as this of
a University such as this can
not endure long anyway. And
it will only change, judging
both by past experience and
the President's most recent ex-
pressions, under sustained and
heavy pressure. The President
believes he netxls the absolute
powers he proposes to keep.
What he sees as "reform" —
the appointment of yet another
Dtan of Faculty, or even a
Provost, even with Senate
"consent" — carries us no-
where. More officers of admin-
istiation just mean more ad-
ministration — not more pro-
pter participation in self-gov-
ernment by those affected. He
does think of "ce^ntralized ad-
ministration" — by which he
means non-academic authori-
tarian government — as Am-
erica s gift to higher education
— despite Antioch, and other
places, from whose vantage-
point this particular "gift"
looks like a barbaric regres-
sion.

And if, in securing the need-
ed changes, "orderly processes"
are to be followed — as every-
one, including the President
prefers — then those processes
must not be blocked by arbi-
trariness (as in the Trustees'
refusal to hold hearings) or by
guile. The outcome is largely,
here as at Berkeley, up to the
Administration and the Trust-
ees. They could take the lead
in promoting the needed order-
ly transfer of power — or
they could, as at Berkeley, en-
sure escalation by crowning
one wrong or stupidity with
another.

But the change will come.
Professors who now consult in
high places with industry and
who counsel in high places in
government and themselves ad-
minister weighty projects can-
not much longer be governed
as children in their own Uni-
versity. And students who also
manage high matters, who are
incredibly more convpetent and
mature than many of their
elders, who shook one South-
ern state after another to its
knees to secure belated social
reforms, are not exactly in-
fants and not to be treated so
either.

The voice of history speaks
clear. Can the gentlemen in the
executive suites and the Presi-
dential Enclaves and the Ad-

ministration buildings hear it
in time?

John R. Seeley,
Professor of Sociology

Big Brother ! !

To the Editor:

The Junior Brother-Sister
program for next year is now
being organized. A large num-
ber of volunteers from this
year's freshman and sophomore
classes is anticipated. However,
at this early stage, I would
like to state some of our objec-
tives and goals for the pro-
gram. In the past, majiy people
have willingly signed up, even
made that first call to the new
student, but then communica-
tion seems to break down. Once
he is back at school, the upper-
classman does not want to be
burdened by the freshman. The
new student, in turn, is hesitant
about "bothering" the upper-
clnj-sman.

It is unfortunate that this sit-
uation arises every year. Most
upperclassmen tend to forget
what their first few weeks at
Brandeis were like. It is, of
course, true that the new stu-
dent, in the long run, must find
his own niche in the campus
community. But it would be so
much easier if he or she felt
that at least one upperclass-
man was genuinely concerned.
I am not suggesting that we
take the new student under
our wing and protect him from
the evils of campus competi-
tion. I am suggesting, however,
that it is about time that this
program be taken seriously by
all those who sign up.

The summer parties, as wild
and as fun as they are, are not
enough. What each upperclass-
man must do is to follow
through well into the first
semester. We all know that the
real "orientation" comes not in
one week but >n at least one
year. Tlierefore. I ask you to
give a liltlo more of your time
and sage advice to the sturlrnt
that you will be a big brother
or sister to.

Finally, there may be some
organizes! research done on
next year's program. We'll be
interested in the reaction*; of
the now students as well as
the views of the iipperclnss-
men. You will be notified about
this later next year. In the
meantime, please make every
effort possible to help make
next year's brother-sister pro-
gram a success.

there is still a chance to deal
with it logically. The main
cause of this year's housing
crisis was the lack of concrete
advance planning, ' he asserted,
"and this must not be re-

An advance copy of the re-
port was presented to the new
Dirci^^tor of Residence, Mr. Har-
ris Schwartz, who visited the

port will be presented to the

Notes From Random

Chuck Coldfarb

Wiling away the hours in the environs of the gym as sports
editor, baseball manager, and general enthusiast can be quite
constructive, for as Yogi Berra once commented, "You can ob-
serve a lot by just watching." I have a few suggestions and a
few complaints that have been ruminating inside me as a result
of just watching.

Withdraw from G.B.L.

Most of my thoughts are on
baseball. As manager, I have
first-hand knowledge of the
team statistics. I can, therefore,
authoritatively describe Bran-
deis' position with relation to
the Greater Boston League. I
shall avoid the gory details and
just say, let's get out! There is
nothing more humiliating than
to lose to Harvard, 27-9, and
yet know that this was our best
performatice against the Crim-
son \i\ several years. MIT is in
the same boat; their coach and
the Boston Globe have inti-
mated that a second league for
the weaker Boston area teams
is desirable. Coach HughciJ and
all the baseball players feel the
same. How about a revised
schedule?

Play Bull in Fall

The revision need not simply
mean a schedule with new
teams on it. A shift from Spring
to Autumn baseball would lead
to improvement. The Judges
presently compete at even
greater odds against New Eng-
land weather than against their
opponents. One week of out-
doors practice is not enough!
The pitchers can hardly be ex-
pected to get loose or the bat-
ters to develop their rhythm.
Thus, when Brandeis opens it.^
season in mid-April, it is un-
prepared to face competition
which has taken a two-week
tour of the Southland for
Spring training.

Yet, the University refuses
to provide the team with spring
vacation contests with Daytona
Junior College. Instead, the
University has allowed Jim
Boyce, Steve Katzman and, in
the past. Freddy Marden to
throw out their arms.

Avoid Injuries

Fall baseball would avoid
such injuries. Players would
return to school for Orientation
Week when they could partici-
pate in concentrated practices
without schoolwork hanging
over their heads. No player
could excuse his poor physical
condition on the weather. The
season could begin by the time
classes do and could be over by
late October — in time for pre-
season basketball practice.

The main argument against
fall baseball is that it conflicts
with our opponents' football
schedules But two-letter men
have always been on the very
same teams which should be
dropped from our schedule:
Harvard, B.C., Northeastern.
et al. A league composed of
Brandeis. MIT. Clark. SufTolk.
Stonchill, and the like would

be competitive and free of foot-
ball. How about this major
change in schedule?

Don't Add Insult to Injury

A more humble request now:
can't all players who have par-
ticipated in varsity athletics be
invited to the All Sports Ban-
quet? Why should it be closed
to those who have unfortunate-
ly not earned letters? Perhaps
only 15 lacrosse team members
play sufficiently well to win
letters but the other ten or so
who faithfully participate in
practices and give their all
when on the field should be
given the dignity of an invita-
tion to the banquet. Don't insult
the ambitiou.i!

Brandeis Nine Trips MIT, Hartford;
Boyce, Shamres Are Winning Huriers

The baseball team finally put together good pitching, solid hitting, and fine fielding for vic-
tories over MIT and Hartford last week. Jim Boyce and Jon Shamres surrendered only 7 hits
apiece, and were backed by 20 Brandeis hits and a strong defense which permitted only one
error in the two games.

The 5-4 victory over MIT was sweet revenge for the 30-11 shellacking Brandeis suffered at
their hands earlier this season. The team had to overcome a 4-0 first inning deficit, and didn't

Sailing Club
Big Success

The sailing club has com-
pleted its first season with
first, second, third and fourth
place fixiishes.

The varsity finished first at
Holy Cross on May 8, second
at Tufts on April 2, third at
the Associate Members Cham-
pionship of the New England
Intercollegiate Sailing Asso-
ciation at Stonehill, and fourth
at the Coast Guard Academy
on May 7.

Daii Perlman sailed the A
Division races, aided by crew
Ahmad Djudzman '67, while
the B Division was skip|>ered
by Dave Rosenblum '68 with
Bruce Mittleman '63 and Steve
Liebhal>er '68 as crew. One
crew was entered at the Coast
Guard meet, skippered by
Perlman with Dave Rouslin
'60. Rosenblum and Elli Mills
'66 as crews.

Brandeis also sailed a series
of freshman regatti.; wit'h
Rouslin, Mike Sandburg, Jack
Rose and Mark Saivetz skip-
pering.

The club rented three 12
foot sailboats for home events;
there was sailing for the more
than 70 members almost every
afternoon since Spring Recess.

The club has donated — out
of its memlx^r^hip dues — an in-
tramural trophy to be sailed

take the lead until the seventh.
The MIT runs were unearned
as an error set up a bases
loaded triple by visiting first
baseman Jack Cleary.

Both Boyce and the defense
tightened the rest of the way
as MIT was completely con-
tained while the Judges chipped
away at the lead. Eric Epstein
scored an unearned run in the
second, and Bob Plunkett drove
in George Frost in the fifth, to
set the stage for the winning
3-run seventh inning rally.

Four Hits in Winning Rally

Frost opened the seventh
with an ipfield hit. With one
down, Boyce beat out a hit to
short; Frost alertly raced to
third when the fielder couldn't
handle the ball. Shamres sin-
gled to left for a run. Then
Plunkett singled through the
middle, driving in the tying
run and sending Shamres to
third. Barry Berlin's grounder
scored the winning run.

Boyce held the lead, ending
the game auspiciously by strik-
ing out the side in the ninth in-
ning. His E.R.A. plummeted to
2.08.

ATHLETE OF THE WEEK

Jim Boyce,
Brandeis pitching^ ace

debut on the mound, couldn't
adjust to the height (he had

run to the cleanup man, Dave
Lill. But from there on in he
was superb. His only real trou-
ble came in the eighth when ha
tired, and a hit and four vsralka
let in three runs. He regained
his control in the ninth, strik-
ing out his eighth and ninth
batters.

Meanwhile, the Judges had
amassed 11 runs, thanks large-
ly to four run outbursts in the
third and fourth innings. Sham-
res, Ira Margolin, and Steve
Altman had the big hits in the
third inning rally; walks were
instrumental in the second big
inning. Margolin and Altman
drove in 5 runs between them.

After last week's perform-
ances, the team was eagerly
awaiting this week's action.
Yesterday, they faced SufTolk.
which fell to Hartford earlier
in the year. Today they travel
to Northeastern, the current
Greater Boston League leader.
The season ends Thursday, at
home, against B C. The team
has jelled sufficiently to put
any of these opponents within
easy reach.

B&M Tickets

The price of Boston and
Maine Railroad tickets has
been changed to 37 cents each
for all Brandeis students. The
tickets are made available to
students by the Administration,
which pays a considerable
amount to subsidize reduced
fares. The new price, which
includes a 7 cent Increase over
last year's fare, came as a result
of student opposition to a plan
which would have charged
non-SAF students a higher rate
than those who had paid the
lee.

Paychecks

As a result of an Internal
Revenue Bureau decision to
end the past practice of paying
student help out of petty cash,
all student employees of the
University must now be paid
by check and have tax with-
held from their salaries. Pay-
checks cannot be cas'hed at the
bookstore but must be re-
deemed at the Accounting Of-
fice in Bernstein-Marcus Thurs-
day or Friday afternoons.

Freshman Curfews

The policy of having early
curfews for freshman girls has
been ended. The old system,
which required first term fresh-
man girls to be in their dorms
an hour earlier than upperclass
women proved difficult tq en-
force in dormitories containing
women in both categories.

This year's SAF collection is
proceeding more rapidly than
last year's. According to Stu-
dent Council Treasurer JefT
Silver about 1500 undergrad-
uates have paid fhe 35 dollar
fee.

Spring: Vacatio-n

The spring semester calendar
has been changed to add a four
day weekend on March 24-28.
The change was made at the
suggestion of the Student Af-
fairs Committee, to provide an
additional break in the calen-
dar, due to the lateness of
Spring vacation this year.

Compromise Quells Dining Hall Crisis
After Council Demands Quick Action

A compromise reached last Friday between the Administration and representatives of the
student body has averted a major crisis over the University's dining hall policy.

The crisis was triggered by a University decision to require all residents of Shapiro A
and B halls, in Hamilton Quadrangle, to eat in Kutz Hall, in North Quad. Coupled with this
was a decision to require all students to eat all meals in the dining hall to which they were
assigned.

At its meeting Thursdayl^
night Student Council voted to
demand action to change these
policies, within a 24 hour
■period.

The compromise allows any
student to eat lunch or dinner
in any dining hall by signing
up in his own dining hall 24
hours in advance. It also pro

vides for the assignment of
Shapiro A and B residents to
Sherman Dining Hall for
breakfast.

The plan does not change the
luncli and dinner assignments
of the residents of Shapiro A
and B but allows all students
to eat in any dining hall, re-
gardless of assignment, at those
two meals, by signing up.

The plan came out of a meet-
ing involving Student Council
President Brian Marcus, '67,
Council representatives Marty
Pernick, '68, former Residence
Committee Chairman Marlys
Moses, '67, Director of Business
Administration David Rolbein,
and Director of Dining Hall
Services Norman Grimm. The
meeting was held after Student
Council, which met Thursday

Council Chosen;
Includes Trustees

student Council President
Brian Marcus, '67, has an-
nounced the formation of a new
committee to deal with Uni-
versity affairs, on which trus-
tees, administrators, faculty,
and students will be repre-
sented.

The committee, to be called
the Advisory Council on Uni-
versity affairs, will meet
monthly to discuss important
policy matters.

Members of the committee
include Trustees Rabb, Scharf-
man, Farber and as an alter-
nate member, Wien. The ad-
ministrators are President
Sachar, Dean of Planning and
Development Berger, and Dean
of Students Driscoll. The pro-
fessors are Dean of Academic
Administration Diamandopou-
los. Faculty Senate President
MacMullen and AAUP Chapter
President Gilbert. The students
are Council President Brian
Marcus, Vice-President Phil
S a p e r i a, and a third to be
chosen. The student choices
may be subje<^t to some change,
however, as several members of
the Student Council have ex-
pressed opposition to having
two of the three students com-
ing from the Council Executive
Board.

Student Council, meeting Thursday night, voted to "offi-
cially censure B & G for the blatant and completely disrespectful
treatment of the Brandeis Student Union during Freshman Ori-
entation Week."

The censure, which was passed by a vote of 10-2-0, followed
numerous complaints received by the Council from freshmen,

frthcir parents, and the members
of the Orientation Committee.
The complaints alleged total
mismanagement and disregard
of students in the distribution
of freshman room keys, failure
to provide services to freshmen
which had been agreed on by
Buildings and Grounds, failure
to live up to written commit-
ments to the Orientation Com-
mittee, and rudeness to those
students seeking to correct the
situation.

Parking:
In a related action, Council
also passed the following reso-
lution: ''Student Council re-
solves that the present parking
situation shall be reviewed and
demands that by October 1, ap-
propriate measures be taken so

Course Review
Spurs Variety
Of Reactions

The Student Course Evalua-
tion, published last summer by
the Educational Policies Com-
mittee of the Student Council,
has provoked much comment
both on and off campus.

The Evaluation, which con-
centrated on reviewing General
Education courses, was com-
piled from questionnaires cir-
culated last spring to students

EPC Pass-Fail Plan
Adopted by College

A system under which students may take courses outside
their field of specialization without receiving formal letter
grades was adopted this summer by the University, as the
result of a proposal by the Educational Policies Committee o<
the Student Council.

The plan, considered a revolutionary advance in liberal
education, is already in effect. Under the plan, upperclassmen
may take four semester courses with grades to be recorded
solely as "pass" or "fail." Only one semester course per term
may be taken on "pass-fail" and only one during the sophomore
year.

The grade of "pass" covers the grades from D — to A.

Full credit will be awarded for a grade of "pass," but the

course will not be counted in the computation of the academic

average, even if it is failed.

— _ 41 The new plan is designed to

encourage students to take dif-
ficult courses outside their own
field without endangering their
averages. A course taken on
"pass-fail" may not be used to
satisfy either General Educa-
tion or concentration require-
ments.

Reaction to the plan has beea
overwhelmingly favorable.

Among those commenting fa-
vorably on the new plan was
President Abram L. Sachar
who called it "an example of
how a student proposal can be
adopted as University ix)licy
through a spirit of cooperation
between students, faculty, and
the University."

Another University official
who had praise for the plan
was Dean of Academic Admin-
istration Peter Diamandopoulos,
who said, "I think it's great. I
was especially pleased to see
that the program was initiated
by students. 1 see it as a bal-
ance of the conventional sense
of training, with a chance to
think in areas outside of one's
professions."

Not all administrators react-
ed favorably to tlie system.
University Registrar Cliarles
Duhig reportedly opposed the
plan as being a form of legal-
ized shirking of student re-
j sponsibility.

New Deans

Several major changes
have been made over the
summer in the Office of Dean
of Students.

Matthew Sgan, formerly
an assistant to the Dean, has
been appointed As.sociate
Dean. Dean Leonard Zion
has moved to a position with
the Hiatt Institute and will
also be taking graduate
courses in the Florence Hell-
er School. John Rich, an as-
sistant to the Dean, will be
leaving shortly to work with
the Peace Corps.

Dr. John P. Roche, Morris
Hilquit Professor of Labor and
Social Thought, has been ap-
pointed a special consultant to
President Johnson.

The appointment has created
a good deal of controversy both
on and off the campus. Roche's
predecessor had resigned in
anger only a few days before
over what he termed tlie Presi-
dent's loss of contact with and
lack of respect for the Ameri-
can and world intellectual com-
munity. It has long \)vvn noted
[that the U.S. policy in Vietnam
has alienated many leading
.scholars and intellectuals from
the President.

On the Brandeis campus,
Roche's popuarity has under-
I gone many ups and downs. In
I pre-Johnson days, Roche was
' regarded by the majority of the
j student body, according to most
\ campus observers, as one of the
i most liberal and outspoken fac-
ulty members. His classes were
well attended and his extra-
curricular activities, most nota-
bly his performance a. auction-
eer at the annual Charity W«'ek
Auction, were extremely popu-
lar. Only a small minority o£
students complained about his
teaching manner.

The first sign of student dis-
enchantment with Roche came
in privately expressed reactions
to a Justice article last year in
which Roche defended .he
United States Vietnam policy.
Since that time his popularity
among both students and fac-
ulty has reportedly decreased
markedly. The new appoint-
ment of Dr. Roche has appar-
ently alienated a large number
of his former supporters on
campus. However, an informal
poll showed that a significant
minority still support his posi-
tion,

Prologue

Pass — Fail

Last month Brandeis adopted one of the most daring inno-
vations in its history, the so-called pass-fail system, designed
to encourage students to take courses outside their particular
fields of study without risk to their academic averages.

The introduction of pass-fail exemplifies cooperation within
the University, through the B^ducational Policies Committee. We
find both the newness and boldness of the plan and the fact that
it was adopted almost unchanged from student proposals as
evidence that the "old Brandeis" of educational innovation may
not be dead after all.

Nevertheless, the ease with which this program was ac-
cepted might well raise some doubts. Among faculty members
a certain tendency to be unconcerned about affairs not directly
related to their own departments has often been noted and at-
tendance at even the most important faculty meetings has often
been skimpy.

The Justice, however, in this particular case, has nothing
but the highest praise for those students of the EPC responsible
for drafting this new system and for those farsighted adminis-
trators and faculty responsible for its adoption.

We hope that this action will not only herald a rebirth of
the concept of the General Education, but will prove to have
been the first step towards a student role in educational policy-
making as well.

Plus Ca Change

"Members of the freshman class are being compelled to live
with three people in rooms originally designed for two. William
Dansker, Director of Placement, said that Shapiro Halls A and
B, although smaller than Usen and Deroy Halls, are housing the
greater number of freshmen. The roominc: situation, Dansker
thinks, will be somewhat alleviated by February. The crowded
conditions, he said, will not be repeated next year. New men's
dormitories are scheduled for completion in September. . . ."

— the Justice, Sept. 29. 1958

"All freslimen women will be living in triples next year, ac-
cording to the student housing committee. Lloyd Meeker,
Assistant Dean of Admissions, said that acceptances have been
sent out to more than 600 students. ..."

— the Justice. May 5, 1964

"Campus dormitories are presently filled to their capacity.
In anticipation of a possible housing shortage next year, Leonard
Zion, Associate Dean for Student Affairs, feels that the number
of freshmen entering Brandeis next year v/ill have to be signifi-
cantly lowered. Dean Zion also anticipates the construction of
new housing facilities in the not too distant future ..."

— the Justice, October 5, 1965

"The University may again be faced with a critical housing
shortage by 1967 according to a report to be issued this week.
The potential shortage is due to the inability of the University
to construct needed dormitory space within the short amount

of time available ..."

— the Justice, May 17, 1966

The becinninii of another academic year means the restoration of the Brandeis community
for upperclassmen and the start of a process of assimilation by which the freshmen will become
part of the student body. For those of us on the Justice, this process occurs on a smaller scale.
It is onlv right for us now to reconsider why we freely come together every Sunday afternoon
and Monday evening, why we occasionally expose our necks to the slings and arrows of outra-
geous^ fortune.^ a school where Rumor spreads so rapidly and is so often as authoritative as it is

Program

The Justice has long held a reputation as being one of the most liberal and outspoken col-
lege weeklies in the nation. As the new editors, we intend to live up to this reputation. A lively
and controversial press is essential to the intellectual environment of a university. However, we
also intend to place this controversy on a new level, to make this paper one of the most respected
and most interesting college publications. , . . ^i. ,.i V4 ^#

We have already begun to initiate a series of bold new plans to raise the literary quality oi
the Justice to a new high, to put the paper back on its feet financially, and to create a news-
paper which will play a vital role in the Brandeis community. We are actively seeking articles
by graduate students, faculty members and administrators on both scholarly and general topics.

Letters to the Editor

Council

The Student Council, often regarded by many students in
the past as little more than a debating society for prelaw stu-
dents, in the last few months has apparently undergone a change
for the better.

In its more recent actions, the Council has shown a willing-
ness to stick its neck out, coupled with a sense of how to get
things done, which has already produced visible results. In its
solution of last year's housing crisis, in its handling of this
year's dining crisis, in its backing of the course evaluation, and
most recently, in its all-out attack on Buildings and Grounds, the
Council has been moving increasingly in the right direction. In
its handling of the B & M train fare rise, the Council again
showed a laudable willingness to put the desires of the student
body over ist own desire to collect a few additional SAFs.

The committees of the Council have shown the same re-
markable tendency to push for what is needed and to get it
done. The accomplishments of the EPC have already been dis-
cussed. The Student Affairs Committee also appears to be mov-
ing in the direction of concrete accomplishment, although it
would be extremely desirable to have the committee hold more
than its two meetings of last year.

Council itself may still be held to account for its tradi-
tional overindulgence in repetitious debate and its slowness to
act. However, last week's meeting showed signs that this era
may also be at an end. We hope so.

Ave Atque Vale

To the Editor:

A few people might be won-
dering why 1 am no longer as-
sociated with the Justice. Since
1 held the position of co-editor-
in-chief last year as a Sopho-
more, the presumption was that
1 would continue in that post or
even become sole editor for the
coming year. Perhaps the best
way to explain my departure
from the Justice would be to
say that I was ousted in a
bloodless coup.

That is, certain members of
the board trumped up certain
false charges against me at a
general board meeting (from
which I was asked to leave)
and then threatened to quit the
paper if 1 were retained. A ma-
jority of the rest of the board
then voted to replace me rather
than lose these supposedly in-
dispensable editors.

Indeed, there were valid
grounds for complaint.
Throughout ttie semester, it
had become apparent that there
was a major division of the
board on editorial and overall
Justice policy. In a number of
instances, my position on a spe-
cific policy issue was a minor-
ity one. Due to the fact that the
major split on policy was hurt-
ing the paper and causing in-
creasing tensions between edi-
tors, a change in editorship
might have been in order.

Had my opposition ever
openly approached me and
showed me that the policy dif-
ferences were irreconcilable. I
would have quit, under some-
what friendly circumstances.
Yet, I was never given this op-
portunity by these great Bran-
deis "liberals" but rather
booted out in an underhanded
manner. In fact, the same
people who demanded! my re-
moval when I was not allowed
to be present have never
openly uttered one word of dis-
satisfaction with my leadership

in my presence. To do so would
have hurt their chances of ef-
fecting the surprise coup,
which, after all, was their pri-
mary goal. Human dcK^ency ap-
parently was not a motivating
factor.

Yet, at this point T am re-
lieved that 1 am no longer an
editor. Every policy decision I
argued for was met by an op-
position which apparently had
a completely different concep-
tion of journalism from mine.
Another major frustration I
had to endure as editor was the
unavoidable realization that
there is at Brandeis a dearth
of writers who are both inter-
ested in journalism and com-
petent in the field. At a school
of Brandeis* supposed caliber
this situation is incredible and
makes itself felt in the quality
of the Justice writing.

As 1 leave, the Justice rolls
along in its noble tradition.
The only hope for the paper is
that the new editor, Marty Per-
nick, who was the hardest
working and best journalist on
the paper last year, can recruit
competent writers (if they
exist) and initiate certain
changes, while keeping the
bosses happy. 1 wish him luck,
considering what he has to
work with, he will need it.

One further point of clarifi-
cation— I had absolutely noth-
ing to do with putting out last
year's graduation issue, which
has been the subject of discus-
sion in some quarters.

Robert Berenson, '68

Editor's Reply

The Justice regrets that it
has caused Mr. Berenson un-
necessary personal discomfort.
We want to assure him that
constitutional procedures re-
quired his absence at the meet-
ing he mentions, and that the
record of the meeting shows his
political convictions were not
a factor in the decision.

Hineh Mah Tov

To the Editor:

Please find herewith a state-
ment addressed *'To Jewish and
Christian Leaders and Theolo-
gians and All Men of Good Will
Everywhere."

It is our earnest hope tliat
this would lead to a general
self-examination and ultimate-
ly the elimination of prejudice
from all sources.

We believe that The Justice
should take the lead by raising
and discussing the issue that
we have stated. It would seem
that the concept of the "chosen
people" is at the root of both
the problem of anti-Semitism
and anti-Gentile-ism. Whether
this concept is a tribalistic one
of the Hebrew tribes or the
Christian concept of members
of a church, it must be dis-
carded, and religion should be
modernized. As Rabbi Morris
Adler said. "The religion the
Jew will return to will differ in
many respects from that of his
father or grandfather. Revolu-
tionary though it may appear,
it will be for him an authentic
expression of the continually
growing and changing tradi-
tion. Some old forms will Per-
sist, some will be allowed to
lapse; new forms, new concep-
tions and interpretations will
emerge out of the American
Jew's search for meaning and
identity."

Please be assured that this
is a question which is by far
greater than the Arab-Israeli
conflict, and our genuine con-
cern is for a world without
prejudice.

With best wl.shes.

Sincerely yours,
M. T. Mehdi
PS. Please be advised that we
are firm believers that Islam
also should be modernized and
should remove from itself what-
ever might lead to prejudice
against the non-Moslems.

Valedictory Address

Commencement Address

The Witness

EDITOR'S NOTE: The following is the text of the Valedictory Address delivered by Steven
Raskin at Commencement last June (exactly as delivered).

Mom, Dad. Ambassador Goldberg. President Sachar, Dean Morrissey,
My friends, and friends of this, my school, which is so young, and so anxVous to be old.
I thank President Sachar for introducing me as "young Raskin." I hope that after Com-
mencement — in fact, I'm sure — we don't exchange the words of Lear and Cordelia, when
Lear said:

"So young and so untender."
and Cordelia replied:

"So young, my Lord, and true."
For I've been quite struck by the amount of truth that's come out this weekend.

But the question I'd like to know answered is, "What is Youth, and how does it feel to be
young?"

Youth is not counted in years; it's too elusive for mathematics. Youth is that period in each
person's life when he has peak physical and mental strength. Feeling young is feeling this
strength. Feeling young means flexing your mind as well as your muscles. Feeling young means
sharpening your eyes, and rejoicing in the alertness of your own reflexes.

It's blue skies, clear seas, and sunny motor-scooter rides. It's a great time, full of reckless
abandon. The young identify with all that's new; they enjoy new ideas. They sit in parks, eat
oran^',es. and throw the peels away. They spend solid afternoons walking in unmown fields,
juit to smell tlie grass crunch underfoot.

This is enjoyment. Why shouldn't the young enjoy themselves? In the very act of enjoy-
ment they are contributing to society, because, whether or not they like it. they are a part of
society. Even if only in spite of themselves, they are contributing freedom.

For the young will contribute freedom to society. Certainly not that freedom which consti-
tutions or money in the bank guarantees. The young have no access to the machines of political
and ecanomic freedom. I'm speaking of the freedom not to care what anybody else thinks, unless
they have more common sense. This is the freedom of Kazantzakis, as it is written on his tomb-
stone:
"I believe in nothing.

I fear nothing.

I am free."

This is a freedom that only
the young have, and they give
it up too soon.

The exercise of this freedom
is youth's greatest responsibil-
ity, and it is a weighty one. The
young are not permitted to

Dissent ?

The Defense

EDITOR'S NOTE: The following are exceriHs of a speech
by Ambassador Arthur J. Goldberg, United States Reprt'.s-cnia-
tive to the United Nations, at Commencement exercises last
June.

Before the dawn of the atomic age, Louis Brandeis believed
passionately that the "greatest menace to freedom is an inert
people." His words have special meaning in a day in which the
salvation of the human race is at stake.

It certainly cannot be said that Americans, engaged as the/
are now in a great debate about the war in Vietnam, are an
inert people.

We should take comfort rather than be disturbed by the
diversity of opinions we hear. I believe they indicate how deep
is the desire of all our people to attain the peace which still
eludes us.

In the debate over this question, the universities have
played a conspicuous part — indeed as they should. They, as
well as our free press, our leaders of organizations and count-
less private citizens speaking only for themselves, have made
themselves heard in the American constitutional tradition that
freedom of speech is at the core of all liberty.

I welcome in particular the freedom of expression that is

being manifested by students
in the colleges and universities
of America not only on Viet-
nam, but on all the great issues
of our day . . .

In sum. I fear intellectual
disengagement far more than 1
do involvement. A college stu-
dent — indeed any citizen —
who disengages himself or who
disavows social responsibility,
in a very real sense hinders es-
sential reform ... It is also
vital, lei me add, that freedom
of expression exist within the
government as well as outside
of it. Perhaps the greatest
danger of McCarthyism was the Ambassador Goldberg

threat to stifle within government the free discussion which is
so vital to informed and responsible decision making.

The academic platform, in pirticular. lei me emphasize*

of the name would limit free discussion or would act to penalize
or inhibit those who would enf^a^e in it. I am happy that Kran-
deis stands in the proud company of America's institutions of
learning whose faculties or students would never contemplate
such action. . . .

"These speech abrid£;ing activities of the tovi/n meeting."
he (Mciklejohn) added, "indicate wh;it the First Amendment io
the Constitution does not forbid. When self-governing men de-
mand freedom of speech, they are not saying that every in-
dividual has an inalienable ritihl to speak whenever, wherever,
however he chooses . . . To you who now listen to my words,
it is allowable to differ with me. but it is not allowable for you
to express that difference in words until I have finished my re-
marks. Anyone who would thus interrupt the activities of a lec-
ture, a hospital, a concert hall, a church, a machine shop, a
classroom, a football field, or a home, does not thereby exhibit
his freedom. Rather he shows himself to be a boor, a public
nuisance ..." when the citizens speak, the government must
listen; when rn their turn, government ofTicLaK speak, the citi-
zens must listen. Thus we will not have a mere shouting contest,
but a dialogue from which tomorrow's new decisions will

emerge.

McLuhan Pt. 2

Global Salad

**We are suddenly threat-
ened with a liberation that
taxes our inner resources of
self-employment and imagi-
native participation in soci-
ety. It has the effect of mak-
ing most people realize how
much they come to depend
•n the fragmentalized and
repetitive routines of the
mechanical era. Thousands
of years ago man, the nomad-
ic food gatherer, had taken
up positional, or relatively
sedentary, tasks. He began
to specialize. The develop-
ment of writing and printing
were major stages in that
process. They were supreme-
ly specialist in separating the
roles of knowledge from the
roles of action . . . But with
electricity and automation,
• the technology of fragmented
processes suddenly fused
with the human dialogue and
the need for over-all consid-
eration of human unity."

If I understood him correctly, these were the salient points
of Mr. Hirschhorn's well-written argument: in favor of a value-
free social science.

1 — The aim of social science is the "categorization and, if
possible, mathematization of social phenomena in causal rela-
tions such that the layman will be able to determine the social
consequences of his actions."

2 — "By insisting that we intertwine social and moral ques-
tions [the position of the Free-UniversityniksJ we simply fetter

form, be retained; and more

"No, did Rainey arrest some more kids"?

Nemerov

'A Cock i Egg

By HOWARD WINANT

Howard Nemerov — New and Selected Poems, University of Chicago Press 1966
Reading these poems is like finding oneself suddenly appointed peacemaker in the fifth
round of the Clay-Chuvalo fight. One is constantly attacked by and identified with compo-
nents of his own character, and just as constantly betrayed by his intellectual and fair-
weather friends. Love and hate battle in grisly fury across the pages of these poems- action

Classical Relish

.Michael Friedmann

One of the resident composers at Dartmouth College's Con-
gregation of Arts this summer was Witold Lutoslawski, the
Polish composer. In one of his lectures, he gave a historical
categorization of contemporary trends as part of the negative
process which has eroded the foundations of 18th tentury clas-
sicism.

He defined the modern artist's role as both a part of this
negative process, and as part of a new classicism, which he
clarified as the highest artistic goal. How this classicism is to

his society, make a vulue-jud|r-
ment — in favor of these as-
sumptions and against all alter-
natives. It is not my purpose to
quibble with his right to accept
these common assumptions, but
only to de«nand that he recog-
nize that he is doing so: That
he no longer hide behind the
mask of a value-free social sci-
ence.

The interests of the "liberal
dialogue" and of the responsi-
ble consideration which should
be given to all paths to the
good life" motivate my de-
mand. An insistance on free-
dom from value is equivalent
to saying that the presently
held values should and will
persist. Accepting society's val-
ues, the economist poses causal-
relations only in terms of them.

Cnothi Seauton

He develops formulae for
avoiding depressions, only the
most blatamt evil of the system.
Similarly, the industrial psy-
chologist finds ways of enabling
workers to survive even the
most deadening forms of lal>or.
These are mere palliatives. But
to demand that more funda-
mental questions be asked is
equivalent to questioning the
values that underly and in part
render meaningful and bear-
able the lives of most of us.

What I would like to propose
in. place of Mr. Hirschhorn's
chimera is a common under-
standing, from which all social
scientists could work objec-
tively. Simply, this is the rec-
ognition that social science
must be normative before it can
be descriptive (and before it
can be anything else). By ar-

ticulating his values, each re-
searcher places before society
the questions which must be
answered first. For, while the
social scientist may or may not
possess expertise in the choice
of true values, he is in the most
advantageous position for ob-
liging society to consider these
questions: By confronting so-
ciety with value-accompanied-
by-causal-relations, society is
forced to consider the two
questions as one.

In conclusion, the mere state-
ment of causal relations is not
value-free. Rather, it builds a
conservative bias into both the
work of the social scientist and
the mind of the nation, a bias
which would preclude attempts
to transcend present social and
economic relations, were that
considered desirable.

Our Average Stiiifent Reacfs

How Did It Start?

founding of Reodmg Dynomics. While working toword he7 mo sterns degree
Jl^nnn "L "" ^""^^^ ^"^ "" professor and watched him read the 80 pages
ot 6,000 words per minute — with outstanding recall and comprehension.
Determmed to f.nd the secret behind such rapid reading, she spent the nexi
two years tracking down 50 people who could read from 1,500 to 6,000
words per minute. She studied their techniques, taught herself to read at
these foster rates. Now after yeors of testing you con benefit from this
great discovery.

How Successful Has It Been?

Results have been reported in Tinne, Newsweek, Business Week and Esquire
Demonstrators have appeard on television with Jack Paar, Garr'y Moore and
Art Lmkletter. Describing Reading Dynamics' impact on some of our nation's
legislators, Time said, "Washington has seen nothing like it since the days
when Teddy Roosevelt read three books a day and ran the country at the
same time."

Senator Proxmire, Wisconsin: "I must say that one of the most useful edu-
cation experiences I have ever had. It certainly compares favorably
with the experiences I've had at Yale and Harvard."

Michael Levy, President of Standard Security Life Insurance Company: "tA^^
normal relaxed reading is now at a rate of approximately 4,000 words
per minutue. Even with the most difficult and technical reading ma-
terials, I find that my speed exceeds 2,5(X) words per minute."

A reading Dynamics class at St. Louis University has on average beginning
speed of 357 words per minute, on ending speed of 1,810 words per
minute. Average comprehension rose from 73 per cent to 83 per cent.

Ben H. Willingham, President of Genesco: "I feel reasonably confident that
almost any company that would encourage its executive group to put
forth the time and effort necessary to apply this improvement in reading
skill would find the results quite worthwhile,"

How Is It Different From Other Courses?

No machines ore used. You leorn, instead, to use your hand os o pocer, o
tool you olwoys hore with you.

Conventional rapid reading courses ospire to 450-600 words per minute.
Most Reading Dynamics groduotes con rood 1«500 ond 3,000 words per
minute, and mony go even higher. * *

GUARANTEE

We will guarantee to increase the reading efficiency of each student by
AT LEAST 3 times with equal or better comprehension. We will refund the
entire tuition of any student who does not obtain at least the tripling of his
reading efficiency as measured by the beginning and ending tests. This
refund is conditioned upon the student's having attended all of the required
classes or having made up missed sessions with the teacher. He must also
hove practiced the required number of hours, following the assignments as
outlined by the teacher. The average student may expect a 5 times increase
in reading speed depending on material read and an improvement in com-
prehension and recall. Any student who must withdraw from the course
for any reason may re-enter any subsequent courses at any future time, at
no additional cost. For further details on guarantee call the number below.

More Tastes of a Global Salad

(Continued from pai:e 4)

Jios in their cai>abilily "to an-
titipate iulure social and tech-
pj(.il deveJopmentfi.**

The arts, according to Mc-
Luhan, create a **counter-en-
viionment" "that provide us
with the means of perceiving
the t^nvironment itself." At
Jtii.st, that happened in the past
when the artist elevated the
proceeding environment (the
jjiunediate historical past) to
his subject: "When writing
w.'is new, Plato translormed the
eld oral dialogue into an art
Joim. When printing was new
the Middle Ages became an
art form. *The Elizabethan
world view' was a view of the
Middle Ages. And the indus-
trial age turned the Renais-
sance into an art form as seen
in the work of Jacob Burck-
hardt."

We cannot investigate right
htrc what sort of significance
or justification lies in this treat-
ment oi history as art philos-
Dpliy. But it is absolutely es-
stnlial to follow this line of
tliought to find the clue of
what is in the back of McLu-
han's mind. Because today, the
historical dialectic of art as
negator of a corrupt contempo-
rary environment by creating
a nostalgic or idealized "coun-
ter-environment" of the past
in linished. Read carefully the
next two sentences:
Today technologies and
their consequent environ-
ments succeed each other so
rapidly that one environ-
ment makes us aware of the
next. Technologies begin to
perform the function of art
in making us aware of the
psychic and social conse-
quences of technologies.
Art H^ithout Function
Now the curious term "with-
out resistance" comes into full
focus. The artist, according to
McLuhan, has functioned in
the past as the arch-resister by
creating a "counter-environ-
ment." Now, there is nothing
left for him to do but to come
as close to the technologically
pre-determJned culture as he
possibly can. When "technol-
ogy begins to perform the func-
tions of art," the artist loses
his countervailing power and
apes technology. Indeed, this
is one of the tendencies of
elitist pop-and op- art where
the perlormer chooses the ma-
terials and themes of the com-
mercial world of techniques
and — by exaggeration and diffi-
cult sub-techniques, to be sure
• — transla tes them into a
pseudo-artistic version. The
same spirit can be traced to
those avantgardists who ap-
proach the computer or the
electronic machine not merely
as media for extended sensibil-
ities but as phenomenon or ar-
tistic expression itself. Seen
from this perspective, McLu-
han's best known slogan "the
medium is the message" can
properly be understood as the
lc*« of self-expression to the
perpetuating cybernatical
mechanism. Or, to take a more
involved example of the same
process, the renunciation of
choice in sound or language,
the improvised and uncon-
trolled mosaic of chance and
accident, are all part and par-
cel of the huge human waste
which the cult of the self-pro-
pelling technology carries in
its waves and rhythms.

Totalitarian Implications
This observer is not at all
committed to a "humanist"
view which divorces "culture"
from "civilization," "art" from
"technology," the "humanities"
from the "sciences," reflectivity
from activity, or the subject of
art from the contemporary
scene. On the contrary: Mc-
Luhiin's underlying idea that
new technological structures
have an integrating and unify-
ing force of their own, that hu-
man activity tends to become
more closely coordinated with
the totality of its environment,
and that therefore a more com-
prehensive and less fragmented
orientation becomes possible —
this idea has a great appeal, not
only to this writer but to all
critics of "mechanistic" or
capitalist society who, since
Marx, have tried to discover the
elements of a new order with-
in the "womb" of the old one.
The trouble is that McL*uhan

not only overlooks the ambi-
guity of the new "totalitarian"
trend but conveniently forgets
the aspects of conflict and con-
tradiction which are its most
important characteristics. While
for him the new order is al-
ready unfolding in all its glory,
that bloody and damnable thing
which is the real world obviates
only a latent, frustrated and
steadily repressed direction
toward new goals. While for
him the all-transcending "ex-
perience" of new existence is
menaced only by the purely
visual perspective of the liberal
intellectual man, the powers to
be are already appropriating
the new technical means — but
certainly not for the pacifying
inspiring goals which McLuhan
believes — or pretends to be-
lieve— are inseparably attached
to them. The fact that these
technologies can be used, and
are mainly and perhaps ex-
clusively are being used, to
suppress, to manipulate, to per-
vert human efforts toward new
goals, this fact is undeniably
the cause of all his follies: his
pseudo-religiosity, his pseudo-

art, and all the intellectual de-
lusions he has fallen victim to.

The sharp contradictions
which arise when an old order
becomes obsolete, and a new
one begins to take shape, have
a peculiar and particularly
ambiguous flavor in our time —
precisely because the new for-
mations in the material struc-
iture are confronted with a
total lack of crystallized will-
power and consciousness in the
human domain. This, again, is
not unrelated to the impact and
the repercussions of modern
technology, which not only uni-
fies and integrates the patterns
of conduct and thought but also
atomizes them and makes them
subject to manipulation un-
heard of in past history. That
is why we call the trend with-
in which this ambiguity is be-
ing manifested "totalitarian."
People point to certain political
constellations as "totalitarian"
and have in mind the encroach-
ment of political power on pri-
vacy and individuality. But
"totalitarianism" is not a static
model of state rule. It is, as we
see it, more of a dynamic strife

towards manipulating the im-
mense facilities of modern tech-
nology by the means of mass
media and aiming at the ter-
roristic elimination of social
contradictions from political
and cultural visibility.

We must differentiate the
totalitarian impulse from the
totalitarian programme (which
has its "liberal" and its "con-
servative" aspect). The totali-
tarian impulse, whether we like
it or not. is in many of us. As
Buckminster Fuller has formu-
lated his findings of the young
generation: they simply want
"to make things work," to es-
tablish an "efficient control" in
the face of diversity. And the
same impulses only a little
nearer to the programmatic side
of it, befuddles McLuhan when
he pleads for a conduct of "no
resistance" to the penetrating
influences and experiences of
the new media, or when he
writes:
TV reaches out for the cor-
porate attributes of office.
Potentially, it can transform
the Presidency into a mon-
archic dynasty. A merely

elective Presidency scmrcely
affords the depth of dedica-
tion and commitment de-
manded by the TV form.

Can anyone miss hearing the
sirens of temptation for "charis-
matic leadership"? It is an ac-
cident that these sirens are in-
terwined with the image of
electric technology and elec-
tronic media?

It would be foolish to stamp
McLuhan as a totalitarian, just
as foolish, indeed, as it would
be to declare anyone who af-
firms the sacriligious character
of the American Constitution
as "anti-totalitarian." In fact,
the ghost of the totalitarian
spirit is knocking on every door
of the political spectrum. In
contrast to the 19th century,
when social conflict brought
about pK)litical consciousness
and ideological solidarity,
those attributes of political
will-power arc being eroded to-
day by technological manipula-
tion. All of us live in the
shadow of totalitarian appari-
tions. In McLuhan, this shadow
has taken on the shape of cul-
ture glorification.

Spirited Intercollegiates

fortunate Hartford team drove 100 miles into a massacre (it

feated goalie, *'You had it all over us, especially some of your
front men."

The team was indeed sparked by a new front line which
scored more in this opener than in any game last year. Only
Cadman Mills, at inside right, and Asim Erdilek. at center, re-
mam from last year. Chris McLaughlin has been converted to the
outside left position, and freshman Detlev Suderow has taken
over the inside left slot. A battle has developed between Peter
Stevens and freshman Scott Johnson for the outside right posi-
tion. Brandeis has been without a good right wing for a long
time. *

Passing is Stressed

This new alignment sliowed surprising co-ordination con-
sidering the lack of practice. McLaughlin seems to have revived
the long lost art of crossing. His passes were almost always
on target, and his style proved contagious. Even Erdilek. known
more for his explosive attack on the goal than for his play-
making showed great accuracy m his passing. Coach Hughes
successfully platooned Stevens and Johnson taking full ad-
vantage of the formers superior passing and of the latter's
generally more aggressive play. Johnson is more likely to score
but each can contribute, depending on the game situation.

played, in the tradition of the football Green Bay Packers a
game of ball-control. The ball was kept in Hartford territory
close to 75% of the time, thus easing the defensive load ^

freely in the second half, and therefore only a rash of injuries
will slow down this club. A winning season is in order

INTRAMURAL PREDICTIONS

I have tried to scout the intramural football teams in order
to make some educated predictions. As expected. I cannot make
any B-league predictions since I am unfamiliar with most of the
players and have not had sufficient time to infiltrate tlieir
practices. There is. unfortunately, no way to estimate the ability
of freshmen whom I've never seen play.

In the A-league. however. I was able to select some
potentially strong teams from their rosters, and with this in-
formation I was able to concentrate my efforts on just a few
practices If past records and my judgment are any criterion I
see a three team race between the Bio-chems, the Fighting Irish
and the Good Guys.

Bio-Chems A Mystery

I was unable to crack the security guarding Bio-chem prac-
tices, but they did win the championship last year on the passing
arm of Fran Stolzenbach and he will once again quarterback
the team.

The Fighting Irish looked fairly well co-ordinated in their
practices, but Terry Kemper and Joel Lubin are their only big
men. and if Lubin is unable to play defense in the opener
against the Bio-chems (this article was written before yester-
day's game) the Irish will lack a strong rush.

Nevertheless, the team has played together for several
years and it begins this year with only minor personnel changes
It has a great new plus in Teddy Evans, a 6'5'* freshman who
could make a championship-winning play out of the "alley-cop"
pass from Jim Boyce. And Jeff Rubman remains the best runner
m the league.

Good Guys Look Strong

may push one or more veterans
to the sidelines.

Rous, last year's number one
man. will probably maintain
his top billing. But Gerstel (in
England last year), Katz, and
Hymowitz will have to re-
establish their old positions.
They may not have to worry
about Zelenka and Yates until
the spring as the latter have
been temporarily idled by in-

Participation in the EXUAC
tournament may be cancelled
in order to give the team add-

and Springfield.

Special praise must go to the
defensive play of Bruce Clarkin
at center halfback. He, along
with Biola Sobowale and Jack
Rovner, broke up many Hart-
ford advances.

The Jayvees play at Tufts to-
day. The varsity resumes action
against Stonehill tomorrow and
has its big test Friday at Bates.

Small Turnout
Slows Runners

Coach Norm Levine has only
seven runners preparing for a
strenuous cross country season
this fall. Despite the team's
quality, he cannot lielp being
disappointed by the meager
turnout — only two freshmen
joined forces with the five re-
turning men.

Co-captains Peter Branigan
and Kenny Smith reign over
only five runners — Jolin Gage,
Andy Yacker, Harvey Ross,
and freshmen Sam Mostkoff
and Mitch Posner.

Nevertheless, the season does
not appear bleak at all. The
season opens at home Friday
against Tufts and B.U. and the
team figures to finish second —
behind Tufts but ahead of
B.U. In later competition, the
runners rate an edge over
Bentley, Emerson, Barrington
and Assumption.

Asim Erdilek, the first to score
for the Judges.

ncss IS lack of co-ordinalion. It is the biggest team in the league,
but many of the players do not expect to play regularly. Of
those who do, the standouts figure to be Bill Rubin on the line
and Dave Rand at halfback.

The line is big, but looked somewhat porous in practice. If
Santo Cimino and Mark Snyder decide to play, however, the
line will be impermeable on offense and unstoppable on defense.

Fortunately, the Good Guys will have several weeks to
jell before they meet the Bio-chems or the Fighting Irish. By
then they may have been tied together by quarterback Dave
Gcspass into an authentic powerhouse.

Nevertheless, I have to take the winner of yesterday's Bio-
chem — Fighting Irish encounter as the likely A-league champ.

INTRAMURAL FOOTBALL

The flag football season

began yesterday with two

A-league and two B-Ieague

contests. The eight A-league
and two B-league teams will
play seven-game schedules
while the eleven B-league
teams will each face six op-
ponents.

In each league the playoffs
will begin on Nov. 7 when
the league leaders play the
fourth place team. "The next
day the second and third
place teams will meet. The
victors in these games will
meet for the league cham-
pionships Nov. 9.

in an exclusive interview with the Justice, that pressure has been exerted against his latest
book, Kennedy Campaigning; The System and the Style as Practiced by Senator Edward Kea-

He declined to comment on either the exact nature of the alleged pressure or its source.

Several attempts to reach Senator Kennedy's office for comment were unsuccessful.

The book contains a controversial chapter on campaign financing, in which Levin questions
the accuracy of the reported expenditures of both candidates in the Kennedy-McCormack race

By ANTHONY SCARIANO

Last week. Buildings and

Ridgewood dormitories for bed-

crawling insects.

The spraying resulted largely
from a Student Council request
that Allen and Rosen Halls be
investigated for insect colonies,
according to Housing Director
Harris Schwartz. At the same
time, Schwartz denied knowl-
edge of any plans to disinfect
East Quadrangle.

While he was not certain
where the insects came from,
Schwartz claimed that "second-

of the creatures. We're inun-

u J'^fu^^^u^"* Council Educational Policies Committee announced at its initial meeting. Octo-
ber 6, that the Faculty Senate had declared itself generally in favor of some student voice in
University appoinlr^^nts and tenure decisions.

EPC Chairman Jay Kaufman, '68, stated that negotiations will be undertaken to determine
the exact role of the student body in this field. He has also stated that Brandeis, as a result of
these negotip tions, may "far exceed any other University in the scope of student involvement."
tie also revealed that the committee was working on reforms in numerous other areas of educa-

^•tional policy.

English Comp

JoAnne Chernev, '69, who is
heading an EPC study of the
Brandeis English Composition
requirement, reported that her
project is nearing completion.
On the basis of extended cor-
respondence with other col-
leges and universities in the
nation, she concluded that
"English Composition at Bran-
deis is a drag. Schools having
comparable courses have either
dropped them or replaced them
with stimulating experimental
programs."

Kaufman outlined other pos-
sible educational reforms in-
cluding revision of the Bran-
deis Catalogue, "to make it rel-
atively accurate." According to
Kaufman, the catalogue lists
courses neither given in the re-
cent past nor slated for the im-
mediate future.

Grad Teaching

The committee also an-
nounced plans to investigate
the graduate-undergraduate re-
lationship, and the role of the
graduate student in undergrad-
uate education. Kaufman de-
clared that "there has l>een no
University policy on tiie role
of graduates in relation to un-
dergraduate teaching."

Kaufman emphasized the
need at Brandeis to work with-
in the confines of the "political
facts of life at Brandeis."
Among these "facts of life," he
listed the autonomy of the
departments, and an alleged
lack of interest by many facul-
ty members in undergraduate
education.

that "Edward Kennedy, who
waged three of the most im-
pressive campaigns in the
memory of many political ob-
servers — convention, primary,
and final election — reported
less than one-half the amount
that experts assume a really big
Massachusetts campaign would
cost." (p. 242)

Levin, who wrote the widely
acclaimed books The Compleat
Politician and The Alienated

Voter, declared in the interview
that pressures had been put on
his original publisher and on
three large publishing houses

to students graduating
with honors.

Dr. Sachar also stated that
the theme of the June '67 com-
mencement will be Interna-
tional Education. As the Board
of Trustees has not yet met to
discuss honorary degree reci-
pients. Dr. Sachar has issued
an open invitation to the senior
class to submit recommenda-
I tions for the honors.

The valedictory was dis-
cussed, but the four officers
stated flatly that it should be
left as is. Plans are indefinite
as to the manner in which the
valedictorian will be chosen.

Dr. Sachar asked the officers
to continue the discussion later
to present their suggestions,
and any other recommendations
for commencement reform.
Seniors are requested to place
their suggestions in Peter
Chabot's mail box.

which had considered printing
the book. The three, which are
among tlie largest printing
houses in tlie nation, refused to
print tlie book, according to
Levin, unless "substantial edi-
torial changes were made,"
mainly in the chapter on financ-
ing.

Levin declared that, to the
best of his knowledge, the book
has yet to be reviewed in any
Boston paper, although it was
given to all Boston papers in
mid-August. Other newspapers
around the country, including
at least one Western Massachu-
setts paper, have reviewed the
work. Levin remarked, "I think
it is remarkable that no Boston
paper has yet reviewed my new
book." In an article in the Sat-
urday Review of October 8,
Don«ald Young, an editor for
American Heritage, wrote that
Levin "sheds light on the Ken-
nedy's campaign techniques in
a scholarly, objective book."

Letters to the Editor

A Silent Press

One month ago, Murray Levin's book on the Edward Ken-
nedy Senatorial campaign of 1962 was published. Though re-
viewed in other places in the United States, the book seems to
kave been ignored in Boston, home-town of the Kennedy family.
"We can only speculate on the reason or reasons for this appar-
ently deliberate silence. Was it on account of intimidation,
subtle or direct, that no review was published? Was there an
unwillingness to engage in controversy, to conflict with the
powers that be? Was it because of a conception of self-restraint
more pernicious than blatant censorship from without; were
dissent and controversy conceived of as contrary to 'good taste,'
without consideration of their truth value? Was it because 1966
is an election year, and the voter must be protected from con-
troversial opinions about leading politicians? Whatever may be
the explanation, one thing is clear. In ignoring so vital a book,
the Boston papers have done a great disservice to their readers.

The questions raised by Professor Levin's book are serious
and disturbing. Does the immense cost of financing a campaign
make it impossible for all but the scions of the wealthy or those
individuals beholden to powerful interests to run for even state
office? Can such candidates flagrantly ignore the laws concerning
the reporting of campaign expenditures? The 1965 Report of
the Massachusetts Crime Commission declared : "There is almost
universal circumvention of the provisions of our Campaign Fund
Reporting Act in the reporting of contributions and expendi-
tures."

Admittedly, legitimate campaign expenses are high. But
unquestionably, a significant portion of the money spent goes to
the making of pseudo-men, pseudo-issues, and pseudo-events.
Has the system and style of campaigning reached such an
Orwellian dimension that shadow can no longer be separated
from substance? Indeed it seems that the public reacts unfavor-
ably to the introduction of reality into the campaign. The elec-
torate is not merely duped, it wishes to be deluded. It enjoys
the scenario of the political production as a spectator sport.

Can this "audience" be really called the body politic of a
democracy? Traditionally, democracy requires a rational and
critical electorate fully aware of issues and personalities in order
to function. When this perquisite is denied, the very existence
of democracy in America is threatened.

Opinion

In Dubious Battle

During the last few years at
Brandeis, the student leader-
ship has advocated, with more
or less emphasis, a student
voice in the government of the
University. In the first issue
of this year's Justice, 1 stressed
the importance of student par-
ticipation in terms of its edu-
cational value. Only here, in a
small gcmeinschaft community,
can people feel that participa-
tion is meaningful, only here
can they be encouraged to lead
civic, rather than purely per-
sonal existences.

The very life of this special
community, at Brandeis and
throughout the country, is now
being called into question. The
small liberal arts school, which
represents the very essence of
the humanist tradition, is
threatened by powerful devel-
opmental trends in American
universities. More and more,
teaching has become subordi-
nate to research; graduate stud-
ies rather than undergraduate
take precedence. Many faculty
members are no longer inter-
ested in living as members of
an intimate academic commu-
nity. Teaching is just a job,
and the larger, research-orient-
ed schools, well-fattened on
government and foundation
grants, can easily lure out-
standing faculty.

It should be clear that the
group, which has the most to
lose from the modern, academ-

Steven Kramer

ic metamorphosis is the student
"class." The student body
should be anxious to restrict
enrollment, to control the
growth of graduate programs.
It should fight for the preserva-
tion of the pastoral and abhor
the proliferation of cement, it
should remember that perfec-
tion is unattainable and that
bigness is never identical with
greatness. It must fear any
further encroachment by the
federal government — increas-
ingly militant and anti-intellec-
tual, without whose aid few
schools could survive even
now. It should value co-opera-
tion but never forget how to
fight.

When the student body
proves that it can fight, then
perhaps co-operation is possi-
ble. But student leadership
must become stronger and bet-
ter organized — not bureaucrat-
ized, as it seems to be becoming
now at Brandeis. We have now
before us the prospect of a
Quadrapartite Advisory Coun-
cil— a beginning. We must
eventually achieve institution-
al and procedural power in the
University. The students are
the group most committed to
the ideal of a small, liberal arts
college. They must sell this
ideal to those faculty and ad-
ministrators who have forgot-
ten or abandoned it, and, if
ncK'CRsary, fight to preserve the
humanist heritage.

To the Editor:

I am reluctant to take issue
with Mr. Koff and to continue
the controversy over the pres-
ent quality of musical per-
formance at this University.
This reluctance stems from the
fact that whatever is good
about it now and was good
about it then has been due di-
rectly to his efforts as a per-
former, teacher, and organizer.
However, his answer which I
take to be a statement of phil-
osophy in behalf of the depart-
ment of music does not suffice.
I take issue with it on two
grounds:

1. Whatever the explanations
and justifications that can be
made, the programs of musical
performance of past years were
the most exciting aesthetic con-
tributions to the life of this
University. In residence at four
other major universities as stu-
dent and faculty member, I had
not seen their like. The same
cannot now be saia. In particu-
lar I am aware that Mr. Koflf
at the cost of sweat, ingenuity
and a few hundred dollars has
arranged an all Handel concert
for next Sunday which I look
forward to attending with great
anticipation but it will be given
at Wellesley College, not Bran-
deis. For whatever the reason,
the department of music does
not have the right to deprive us
of so valuable a part of uni-
versity life. If it lacks enough
performers on its staff or
enough money to mount a ma-
jor program of performance it
should be pushing the Presi-
dent for more funds and for
expansion of personnel. He has
not in the past been unrecep-
tive to the vigorous implemen-
tation of a good idea.

2. Mr. Koff accepts the prin-
ciple that the performer at a
university has as his primary
responsibility to teach and to
act as the tool of the composer,
musicologist, and student and
can provide perfomances for
their own sake only as a second
effort. I disagree. Let me ex-
plain by contrasting my aca-
demic privileges and responsi-
bilities and those of a musical
performer. It is true that both
they and I must consider teach-
ing as one of our primary re-
sponsibilities. Otherwise none
of us should be in a university
in the first place. But of abso-
lutely equal importance is the
right to express our profes-
sional creative needs as inves-
tigators, in my ca.sc through in-
vestigation of biological phen-
omena; in their case through
investigation of music. I do not
recognize the right of any mem-
ber of this University, Presi-
dent, Dean or fellow faculty
member to shape or influence
the extent and direction of my
research; neither should the
musical performer. My particu-
lar and very selfish concern
hes in the fact that when Mr.
KofT and his fellow performers
are permitted to investigate
music without interference, I
enjoy myself hugely. I sincerely
hope that the music department
will recognize the equal im-
portance of these two functions
by the performer, as they now
do in the case of composers and
musicologists, and act accord-
ingly.

To the Editors:

For some reason, your Octo-

I feel it important to set the
record straight in this matter.
There are on this year's The-
ater Arts department staff a
small number — six to be exact
— of "artists-in-residence": that
is, professional actors who will
work together all through the
year with faculty and students
in an integrated production
program in all three of the
Spingold theaters. This is a
very different setup from last
year's, and is based on very
different educational and artis-
tic principles. Far from creat-
ing what your editorial refers
to as "bitter" Theater Arts ma-
jors, this new program, and
the principles on which it is
based, were formulated ex-
pressly for the students' bene-
fit and have met with consid-
erable enthusiasm from all ma-
jors with whom 1 have dis-
cussed them.

Repeat: There will be no sep-
arate prolessional company,

To the Editor:

Last week's Justice editorial
"Advice and Consent" hit the
incredible depths of absurdity
when it recommended that two
members of the Advisory
Council on University Affairs
be elected at large from the
student body. Not only is this
view untenable, but the edi-
torial left out the salient (and
provoking) elements of the
Council debate regarding the
Committee.

The election of the two rep-
resentatives would be merely
another attempt to proliferate
the swelling number of student
elections. The editors failed to
come to grips with the question
why these representatives
.*5hould have to reflect any of
the students' opinions. Do they
poll their constituents? Who
are their constituents? (When
only 19% of the student body
decides to vote in a crucial
election, then it becomes diffi-
cult to seek out a con.stituency.)
Is such a reflection exemplary
of present student governTnent"^
I truly doubt it.

The Justice, though, wishes
to picture the Brandeis com-
munity as one of dynamic po-
litical polarization; in one cor-
ner, we have the anti-admin-
istration forces, in the other. . .
The editors are really afraid
that someone may sell them out
to Abe and the Board.

Yet at this logistic point in
bad editorial writing, the intel-
lectual dribble ends and the
crass stupidity begijis. The Jus-
tice totally ignored the pending
resolution approved by Council*
"The Committee .«;hail include
the Student Council President-
Chief Justice of SBR; and one
other.**

What place does the Chief
Justice have on the Council'^
Now, when SBR's very exist-
ence is questioned, Mr. Chief
Justice may be in a position to
bicker and bargain over his
own realm of judicial power.
This is as asinine as John Mar-
shall asking Thomas Jefferson
to constitutionally grant orig-
inal jurisdiction to the Su-
preme Court for issuing writs
of mandamus. If Brent Levin-
son has any judicial savvy, he
will decline the appointment.
Or, he can be faced with the
hideous prospect of disqualify-
ing himself with every case in
which the court's authority had
been curtailed or extended by
the Council. The Justice never
mentioned this.

But the last resolution de-
feated by Student Council was
one calling for the appoint-
ment of Jay Kaufman, Chair-
man of EPC on the Council.
This was indeed the greatest
example of mesmeric backslid-
ing Student Council has ever

ground out. The student rep-
resentatives were worried
about packing the Advisory
Council with students of sim-
ilar political views.

Regardless of his appointed
position, Jay belongs on the
Council. Every important edu-
cational reform accomplished
by EPC recently can be pin-
pointed to Jay's dexterity and
diplomacy in Administration-
Faculty dealings. His qualifica-
tions are impeccable; the ad-
vantages for all "constituents"
would be real. Yet Council's
resolution forbade his place
on the Committee.

Apparently, the Justice de-
sires to leave vitally important
issues such as the Levinson-
Kaufman affair untouched, and
then embark on its crusade to
preserve the democratic ideal
of elected representation. The
Justice must join Council in an
ingenuous routine of utter in-
competence.

Orit^ntation

To the Editor:

Although I am pleased that
your reviewer enjoyed the 1966
Orientation Show, I am disap-
pointed that he neglected to
mention the person who is pri-
marily responsible for any the-
atrical production: the director.
I think that whether the re-
viewer intends to criticize or
praise him for the results of
his work, the director should
not be overlooked as he is ar-
tistically and often practically,
the backbone of a theatrical
venture.

In the case of the Orientation
Show, I think the entire cast
and crew will agree that the di-
rector, Jeffrey Jacobs, put
much time, effort, and talent
into this endeavor, and certain-
ly deserves mention, if not
praise.

To the Editor:

Concerning Bill Kornrich*s
article, "White Brand," in the
October 4 Justice:

I see nothing beautiful about
a man being moved to kill an-
other man out of hatred. I can
only think it pathetic that the
men who fired guns at "Whitey"
tjank to the low level of "hu-
manness" displayed, up to now,
by "Whitey" in terrorizing and
degrading the Negro.

Their hate is understandable.
It is natural. It is perhaps all
the Negro could possibly fool
after being treated like an ani-
mal. But he cannot allow his
hatred to overpower his reason,
and control his actions, or else
the cause of Civil Rights will
degenerate into that of getting
revenge against "Whitey."

There is nothing we can do
about prejudice. All the dem-
onstrating and legislating in
the world will not make a seg-
regationist any more tolerant
and non-discriminating towards
Negroes than he is now. The
Negroes can only hope — for
now — to gain civil rights by
soliciting the protection of the
Law, and the good will and co-
operation of those in the White
community who are sympa-
thetic to their cause. But al-
lowing hatred to thrash out
against the prejudice that cre-
ated it can only mean rioting,
killing, and destruction; it will
alienate White supporters; and
it will leave prejudice un-
changed. Even if violence
should shock society into era-
dicating discrimination of some
sort or another, these reforms
can only come at the expense
of the lives and property of in-
nocent people.

When the Negro turns to vio-
lence, whether in self-defense,
as did the marchers in Chicago
recently; or out of uncontrol-
lable hate, as did the SNCC
worker training a gun at Sher-
iff Rainey's head; it is not at all
beautiful, but — rather — re-
grettable.

By JAN KLEIN

The Theatre Arts Department will receive a "larger than
the average" department increase in budgetary allocation this
year according to Lester G. Loomis, Dean of Financial Affairs.
Although no specific figures are available for publication, this
increase will go in large part towards scholarships for 20 stu-
dents in a two-year intern program. ,

Since the postponement of the graduate program in The-
atre Arts last year, the Department has instituted a course of
study, not technically on the graduate level until the Master
of Fine Arts accreditation is received, in two areas: acting and
designing-technical. The interns, whose scholarships range up
to $3500 a year, are required to give at least 18 .hours of
"service" to the Department in their respective specialties, m
addition to attending classes. Those in the acting division have
the option of studying directing, are "on call" for all produc-
tions and must read for all shows in Theatres 1 and 2. Interns
in the design-technical area will engage in backstage and shop
work for all Spingold productions. ^. , rtu^Tv.^

In an interview last week, Howard Bay. Director of the The-
atre Program, discussed a major revision in the Brandeis the-
atre "There will be no imported professional companies this
year" he stated emphatically. Other members of the depart-
ment concurred in citing the importation of such New York
companies as necessary last year, but financially impracUcal
and academically unsatisfactory to Theatre Arts concentrators

Instead six Artists-in-Residence, all Equity members, will
be part of the i>ermanent staft" of the Department. They are
Matt Conley, Peter MacLaine, Vanya Frank. Olive peering,
Burt Williams, and Roberts Blossom. Those Artists-in-Resi-
dence are "on call" for any acting assignments delegated to
them as per "play-as-cast" contracts with Equity. This means,
specifically, that they are not restricted to main stage produc-
tions, or to major roles. .

Mr Bay put a great deal of emphasis on integrated pro-
ductions each comprised of undergraduate majors as well as
interns ind Artists-in-Rcsidence. It is expected that this sys-
tem will help maintain a professional quality in Spmgold
oroductions and aflord undergraduates the advantage of in-
formal instruction by the Equity members, who are required
by contract to spend approximately 50 hours at Spingold

^^^Vn addition to the interns and A-i-R's. the Department has
taken on a theatre manager, instructors in both playwritmg and
voice and speech, and a head of costume executiorv.

In conjunction with the new programs, the Theatre Arts
Department has asked for $500 financial aid from Student
Council to help defray costs involved in keeping SAF admis-
sion to Spingold productions free. This measure was turned
down by Council and further discussion postponed until Charles
Moore a member of the Department, could appear at the next
meeting to clarify specific reasons «or the allocation request.
According to the new stage manager MarUn, the $500 if re-
ceived would just about cover the cost of printing the students
tickets However reasons cited for the request included costs
of bookkeeping, distribution of tickets and salaries for em-
ployees checking SAF admissions. Further elucidation of the
is.sue will probably be available after the next Council meeting.

The schedule of Theatre I performances has been an-
nounced for the year. Morris Carnovsky will direct the first
performance, Chekhov's Sea Gull. Second. Spmgold will fea-
ture Jules Feiffer's Only When I Laugh. The third performance
is a study of young narcotic addicts written by Don Peter^n
This production of Does a Tiger Wear a Necktie? will be a

Foundation for a $25,000 grant. Following this production will

newspaper, averaging akout
one term's tuition per editor-
in-chief. We were floored. Hew
can any paper claim to be a
free spokesman for its student
body when its editors are in the
hire of the administration and
could be threatened with a loss
of salary at any time?

However, the most glaring;
and alarming diflferenees be-
tween the Justice and the other
papers were in their sources of
support and in the amount of
freedom and responsibility
given to the editors. The Jus-
tice was the only paper repre-
sented which was supported fi-
nancially by the student body
instead of the Administration.
It was also the only paper with-
out a formal faculty advisor or
faculty censor. We were taken
aback at the ease with which
the conference representatives
could sf>eak of their "freedom
and responsibility" while op-
erating under freedom granted
by fiat and a lack of respon-
sibility for what they print.

The most personal and deep-
ly held beliefs of an individu;»l
or an organization are tho.se
concerning one's role in life,
real or imagined, and one's
raison d'etre. We were thus
cast in the most difficult of po-
sitions; that of convincing a
conference of faculty advisers
that a student newspaper could
function quite well without a
faculty adviser — that they
might indeed become superflu-
ous.

The discussion of the role of
the faculty advisers was
opened with a statement by the
adviser of the Maine Maritime
Academy newspaper that, like
it or not, advisers were censors
working for the school, and
might as well admit it. Tlie dec-
laration provoked expressions
of pious outrage from the other
advisers who claimed that they
never read or censored any
copy before it was printed.
They claimed that they only
served to make themselves
available to those student edi-
tors who requested advice.

The Justice delegates were
the only ones agreeing with
the Maritime Academy censor.
Needless to say, however, while
our premises coincided, our in-
ferences differed greatly. If ad-
visers are censors working for
their schools, then they should
come out and admit it; but if
they are not censors and have
no knowledge or say about
what goes into their papers,
they they should not be held
resi>onsible for what their stu-
dents print, either to the law
or to their own administration.s.
We are reminded frequently
that freedom requires respon-
sibility. If an adviser gives his
students freedom from his cen-
sorship, then he .should also re-
sign and let them lake the
praise or blame for what they
print. They might even learn
somotliing " from their experi-
ences, no matter how painful.

We are far from advocating
the complete reliance of the
student editors on their own
untrained judgment. We prc-
.sentcd the case for the present
Brandeis system of making
competent people in the Ad-
ministration and faculty avail-
abcl to the Justice on request
for advice, without requiring a
single iack-of-all-trados to iiear
the official title of advisor or
the yoke of responsibility,
either to the law or the scliool,
which is what tho title implio.s.
Again, it is needless to point
out that the delegates received
our opinions in stony disbelief.
We were questioned repeatedly
as to whether a paper so free
could really exist.

provided us with further in-
sights into tho working of the
"mainstream" from which we

words of Professor Wilbur,

Mask of the Novel

By HOWARD WINANT

JAary Retwulf — The ^ask of Apollo, Pantheon, 1966, 370 pps.

of the genre, and one of the best of the living practitioners of the craft. With the possible excep-

In the last issue of the Justice, Larry Hirschhorn argued
for the necessity of a value free, ethically neutral social science.
On reading his article, two thoughts come to mind. Is such a
value-free social science possible, and if so, is it desirable. These

contentions. The source for much of the following is the work of

Social scientists, according to
this argument, must be dedi-

Such a commitmejfit immedi-

Ethical Relativism

Finally, Mr. Hirschhom's po-

Mutual Nostalgia

To complete our analysis we
must now investigate the pre-
scriptions for change that each
philosophy presents. The right
wing, true to its historical heri-
tage, has tender feelings for the
past. With gentle nostalgia it
recalls those New England
town meetings where, under
the direction of the Council
Chairman, the general will and
the will of all met in a most
pleasant union to guide the
town through the complexities
of the day. It is this nostalgia
that leads them to conclude
that with the destruction of
federal power, the general will,
shall once more be restored to
its rightful place. They fail to
understand, however, that big
givernment is part of that tri-

Eartite gargantuan complex of
u.siness, government, and la-
bor, such that destruction of
one will weaken the counter-
vailing power exerted on the
other two. Furthermore, be-
cause of its weakness in social
and economic analysis, it fails
to see that bigness is really a
function of the scientific ra-
tionalization that big technol-
ogy brings, and not the result
of a conspiratorial elite. In the
final analysis right wing ideo-

logy is largely "spritual." It
demonstrates a remarkable in-
difference to the economic fac-
tors that generate power. It la-
ments for men's ijarren souls,
but forgets their empty purses.

The left wing, one fears, is
also caught in nostalgia — nos-
talgia for the revolution that
never was, ever anxious to find
some new factor harbinger to
that day of the Second Coming.
Since exploitation is all-perva-
sive, tolerance repressive, and
concession hidden domination,
the left sees no value in work-
ing within the system to correct
it. Society, in its analysis, has
reached the point where ra-
tional man can no longer be
convinced of the truth. There-
fore revolution remains the
only po.ssible means for change.
Because revolution is unthink-
able in an age when violence
cannot be controlled, it is in-
cumbent upon the left wing to
suggest political alternatives
for the here and now! The left
forgets that technology breeds
an interdependence which can
make for remarkable reciproc-
ity in political and social con-
trol. We need to activate this
reciprocity through the crea-
tion of new political institu-
tions that will enable the indi-
vidual to once again control
his destiny.

Left and right have merged
Into a pit of seeming self-para-
lysis. Perhaps, then, history
calls upon the middle-of-the
r o a d e r to be the creator of
change — who else remains?

still seems that this concert was
an implosive media. One did
not just look and/or listen. As
it was visual and aural it was
al.so tactile. One could feel the
crackling staccato, be swept
vpwards by the graceful glis-
sando and be physically ex-
panded by the inimen.sity of
the rich tone . . . This was an
experience in which all the
senses were used.

Perhaps this concert was
just an extraordinary occasion,
from which general discussion
of communications sociology
must be excepted. In any case

it was an event in which one
witnessed the visual concreti-
zation of Jascha Heifetz the
man, the violinist extraordi-
naire performing his feats of
magic before one's very eyes,
as opposed to Heifetz the aural
myth of the electronic world,
the tape machines and RCA.
If the medium is the message
the record is a different
medium with a different mes-
sage from the concert. One
does not know what sort of
shennanigans have taken place
in the .splicing room. On Sun-
day October Z, Heifetz became
real once more.

ly took part. See the magic
word? As soon as I say "sup-
posedly," I am free. If Miss
Renault's new setting came
from the oral tradition and the
super-sketchy sources that
Theseus' setting did, I have
no doubt that the lady's skill
of presentation would guaran-
tee us a most satisfactory work.

Dreams

I would like to add a few
other remarks. Miss Renault
has one habit which I detest,
and whose cuteness is eclipsed
by its total foolishness. Her
characters dream, unknowing-
ly, about events of the future,
while Miss Renault winks at us
from her 20th-century book
jacket. I could stand it when
Theseus dreamed near h i s
death at the end of The Bull
from the Sea, of appearing to
the outnumbered Greeks at
Marathon, for there is a legend
that he did come to their aid
at the battle, which took place
in 490 B. C, centuries after his
supposed (see?) death. But
when Nikeratos dreams the fol-
lowing, without any logical
reason or contextual justifica-
tion, it is too much:

I dislike having to give Miss
Renault an unhappy review,
because on the whole I consider
her very talented as both writer
and time-machine. Shallowness
is not becoming to her, and has
not been a problem in the past.
Send me another book. Pan-
theon, and maybe I can make
it up to you.

lice was "... keeping clean.**

Student reaction to the disin-
fecting program was varied:
Ridgewood students denied the
existence of "any creatures" in
their dormitories. Others com-
plained that Buildings and
Grounds evacuated them from
their rooms, supposedly to
fumigate, but postponed the
spraying to another day.

Most students in East Quad-
rangle insist that the bedbug
problem has been controlled in
their rooms and deny that
fumigation is necessary. Ap-
parently, last year the problem
of vermin was most severe in
East, but the students had to
pope with the insects them-
selves.

Although students in North
Quadrangle complained vehe-
mently last year, B & G did
nothing to eliminate the silver-
fish. This year, Buildings and
Grounds claim they have no
plans to combat insect colonies
in any location except Ridge-
wood. When asked if they were
investigating other complaints
in East and North, B & G re-
fused to comment.

Kennedy

didates, was based partly on
the public's extravagant ex-
pectations — their need for
heroes and illusions, albeit
illusions of a particular kind
— and on Kennedy's ability
to pay for the services of
men expert in the business of
creating and selling pseudo
events." (p. 293)
The candidate in Levin's view
becomes a human pseudo event.
The list of so-called achieve-
ments on campaign material —
Chairman of the Mass. Delega-
tion to Italy in Commemoration
of the First Centennial of Ital-
ian Unification, May, 1961. —
becomes the "factual basis up-
on which voters could decide to
favor Kennedy."

To see the candidate as hu-
man pseudo event does not im-
ply conspiracy or cabal. Boor-
stin had argued that a person
as pseudo event
**has been fabricated on pur-
pose to satisfy our exagger-
ated expectation of human
greatness. He is morally neu-
tral. The product of no con-
spiracy, of no group promot-
ing vice or emptiness, he is
made by honest, industrious
men of high professional eth-
ics doing their job, 'inform-
ing' and educating us. He is
made by all of us who will-
ingly read about him, who
like to see him on television,
who buy recordings of his
voice and talk about him to
our friends. His relation to
morality and even to reality
is highly ambiguous." (p. 299)

Levin admits that reality sets
bounds to image making and

tist must determine the degree

press. The position of theJIus-
tice, that four letter words are
to be used when their shock
value serves as a natural com-
pliment to the entire article,
raised shocked eyebrows
around the table. The only
major expression of agreement
with this position came from
Professor Harvey Vetstein of
Northeastern.

When we told the delegates
that Brandeis students had
more important things to worry
about than four letter words,
the conventioneers fell over
one another in a verbal dash
to dissociate themselves from
us.

It became increa.singly self
evident that while Brandeis
may be far from the most lib-
eral university, the "main-
stream" has apparently becMne
mired with a thick layer of
taboos, superficialities, and ir-
relevant concerns against
which the Justice has fortun-
ately managed to insulate it-
self. Having finished our mis-

this does not either disprove or

pered with and the conditions
that make tampering more or
less possible.

Debate Significant
In using the Boorstin anal-
ysis, Professor Levin makes

clear the significance of the
Ktnnedy-McCormack televised

debate. He argues that when
Edward McCormack turned to
Ted Kennedy and said **If his
T\iiir\e was Edward Moore, . . .
with his qualifications . . .
your candidacy would be a
joke. ..." McCormack inject-
ed reality into a psuedo event,
he dared to break the contrived
event, i.e., rote discussion of
the "issues," to question the
validity of the Kennedy image.
Ironically, the debate helped
Kennedy more than McCor-
mack. The voters reacted to the
dt^bate "not according to the
validity of McCormack's cri-
tique, but according to their
emotional commitment to Ken-
nedy. McCormack's statement
upset them, intensified their
anxiety." They wanted to b^
lieve in the non-reality. Levin
even argues that the elaborate-
ness of the Kennedy campaign
and organization becomes
"proof to Kennedy supporters
that their enthusiasm for the
Kennedys is justified. The effi-
ciency, grandiosity, and op-
ulence of the campaign are
taken as indication of the can-
didate's competence." (p. 303.)
Professor Levin conclud€^s that
"The Kennedy brothers and the
men who help manage their
careers and campaigns have
mastered the art of creating
shadows and taking advantage
of substance." (p. 304.)

Numerous interviews with
political aides and Massachu-
setts politicos are introduced.
Some are quite instructive. For
example, one Kennedy aide is
quoted as saying: "There was
constant control. ... If a guy
went to a church social — a guy
who had been with us and said
something that might not have
been too complimentary to our
candidate, we would know that
almo.st the next day. . . ." Or
"We find out, for example, that
Joe Jones, from Quincy, is very
active in Little League, and we
find . . . two or three people
very close to Quincy . . . who
are with Kennedy. We send
one of these people down. They
start out at a mutual level of
Little League and they talk and
become friends. . . ." (P- 52)

Besides Kennedy's personal-
ity, his most important asset
in the campaign was his rela-
tionship to the President of the
United States. This would
seem to be the weakest point
in Levin's argument. To the ex-
tent that Edward Kennedy
could speak of "My Brother the
President," or "My Brother the
Attorney General," to that ex-
tent he could in political terms
deliver the goods, he could do
more for Massachusetts.' Sig-
nificantly though, Kennedy
chose to run as a pseudo event,
as Edward Moore Kennedy
whose record was based on his
•'Community Service Record.

Professor Levin also objec-
tively describes the weaknesses
and failings of the McCormack
campaign. He indicates how
McCormack's record as an At-
torney General mindful of civil
liberties was overshadowed by
his "South Boston" image.

"Serious Money"

The most controversial chap-
ter in Levin's book is the chap-
ter entitled "Serious Money.
Here for the first time a poli-
tical scientist attempts to de-
termine through computation
of various costs the actual ex-
penditures of running for state
office. Using H. Stuart Hughes
campaign costs as a reliable
index — Hughes was willing to
make most of his invoices
available to the author — and
estimating the minimum costs
involved, Levin comes to some
important conclusions about
the high costs of campaigning.
Levin notes that "persons thor-
oughly familiar with the cost
of waging major state-wide
campaigns in Massachusetts es-

timate that an absolute mini-
mum of $750,000 is necessary

to mount a competitive six-
month campaign for the con-
vention endorsement, the pri-
mary nomination, and the final
election. No knowledgeable
person whom we interviewed
placed the minimum cost at
less." (p. 242) Yet Edward M.
Kennedy reported total expen-
ditures of only $421,442.22
while Edward McCormack re-
ported $78,765.68. H. Stuart
Hughes, whose expenditures
seem the most accurate as a re-
sult of records he provided the
author, reported expenditures
of $165,889.05. Levin concludes
that after considering estimates
from "knowledgeable observ-
ers, it is somewhat startling to
look at the expenditures, re-
ported by the treasurers of po-
litical committees in 1962, as
required by law . . . Edward
Kennedy, who waged three of
the most impressive campaigns
in the memory of many politi-
cal observers — convention,
primary, and final election —
reported less than one-half the
amount that experts assume a
really big Massachusetts cam-
paign would cost." (p. 242)

Yet Kennedy's campaign treas-
urer wrote to the author on
May 17, 1965, stating that "the
reports filed by the Edward M.
Kennedy Committee for United
States Senator contained 'a
complete and accurate state-
ment of all receipts, contribu-
tions, and all expenditures,
billings, and invoices made
during the 1962 camp^Siign . . .'"
(p. 243)

Levin reports that no sena-
torial candidate complied with
Massachusetts law by reporting
contribution in kind, that is,
donations in the form of free
office space, free typewriters,
etc." Thus it became impossible
daily in alphabetical order so
that the report listed names in
"complete disorder." True re-
cipients of payments "were
masked by reporting very large
sums to advertising agencies,
who presumably then paid tele-
vision stations, newspapers,
etc." Thus it bacame impossible
to determine how much was
paid a particular television or
newspaper. Expenditures were
lumped together to prevent dis-
covery of the actual recipients.

Missing Reports

Levin reports that in 1964

the Massachusetts Crime Com-
mission, undertaking a full
scale investigation of 1962 ex-
penditures and contributions,
asked the suppliers of goods
and services to forward to it
copies of all invoices to state-
wide candidates. Levin writes
that "Thousands of the sup-
pliers complied, but as the
Commission noted in its final
report, 'two well-known com-
panies refused to provide in-
formation requested by the
Commission relating to cam-
paign expenditures in the 1962
election.'" Levin concludes:
"We are authoritatively in-
formed that these companies
were John C. Dowd, Inc., of
Boston, the advertising agency
employed by Kenjiedy, and
Buck Printing Company, of
Boston, which, we were told,
produced much of Kennedy's
printed materials and that of
other candidates." (p. 250)

Levin then provides a de-
tailed analysis of apparent and
hidden costs of campaigning.
Levin in this detailed analysis
is unquestionably providing for
the first time important data
for the understanding of the
high cost of campaigning. His

conclusions raise important
questions about who can afford
to T\xx\ for political office in this
country today.

Professor Levin has written
an important book, in analys-
ing the 1962 senatorial cam-
paign in terms of the pseudo
realities created by one candi-
date and in terms of the high
costs of creating that pseudo
reality. Professor Levin has il-
luminated the art of eampaign-
ing in a world where style, a
marketable commodity, is be-
coming the essence of polities.

In that dramatic confronta-
tion in South Boston, Edward
McCormack had challenged the
Kennedy candidacy by statinf
before a state- wide television
audience, "If his name was Ed-
ward Moore, with his qualilea-
tions . . . your candidacy wonki
be a joke, hut nobody's laugh-
ing because his name is net
Edward Moore. lt*s Edward
Moore Kennedy." The Isiper-
tant question Murray Levin
implicitly raises is whether, in
a world of p!<ieudo events, ef
contrived reality, in sMne fu-
ture 1984, could not even a
non-entity named Edward
Moore be elected.

Soccermen Divide Week 5 Contests;
Crush Stonehill, Defeated by Bates

Bj JOEL LUBIN

A strong Brandeis soccer
•quad split two games last
week, defeating Stonehill at
home Wednesday by a 3-1 mar-

gin and losing to Bates Friday
y an identical score before a
hostile crowd. These decisions
brought the club's record to
two victories and one defeat.

Stonehill dominated play
Wednesday during the first
quarter, with Dick C o n r o y
kicking in a loose ball in front
of the Brandeis goal at 15:25
to give the visitors a tempo-
rary lead. The next period was
an entirely different story as
the Judges' offense maintained
control of the game. However,
Brandeis missed several good
scoring opportunities due to
lack of teamwork in the front
line. Two goals and another
potential scoring play were all
nullified by offside violations.

Big Third Period

The hooters finally broke
loo.se in the third period. Hus-
tling efforts by Chris McLaugh-
lin and freshman Scott John-
son set up Brandeis' first score
as Asim Erdilek put the ball
into the net.s at 5 : 07 on a screen
shot. John.son was credited with
an assist. The Judges continued
to put the pressure on and
scored again at 10:30 with
Johnson banging one in after
the Stonehill goalie fumbled a
McLaughlin shot. The final goal
came at 18:34 of the same quar-
ter as captain Cadman Mills set
up freshman Detlev Suderow.
Brandeis outshot Stonehill 9-2
in tliis quarter.

The final period saw several
breakaways by Brandeij, but
none of them produced a score.
Again lack of teamwork in the
forward wail was apparent.
Center halfback Bruce Clarkin
was sensational, repeatedly
breaking up advances by the
Stonehill eleven, and goalie
Steve Jacobs came up witii sev-
eral good stops.

Mills Stars

As usual, Cadman Mills was
spectacular throughout the
game, playing all over the field,
while Chris McLaughlin showed
that hustle pays off. Fine de-
fensive performances were
turned in by halfback Biola
Sobowalc and fullback Jack
Rovner.

In the Bates game, Brandeis
completely dominated play
throughout the first quarter,
but once again failed to capi-
talize on several golden scoring
Opportunities. Cadman Mills
was fantastic, coming up with
the ball time after time and
continually trying to set up his
teammates. Wings McLaughlin
and Johnson hustled, but the

offense simply didn't jell. One j game. Mills was an All-New
individual can't score by him- England selection last year and
self; it has to be a team effort, is due for possible AU-Ameri-

Center half Clarkin broke up
the few threats Bates managed
in this period.

Confusion Aids Foe

In the second quarter Bates
controlled play, keeping the
pressure on Brandeis and final-
ly scoring at 15:45 when an
open man slipped the ball past
Jacobs after a corner kick.
There seemed to be some con-
fusion in the Judges' defense
as to who was covering which
man, and it was this mixup
which led to the goal. Jacobs
came up with several fine saves
in this period but again Bran-
deis was unable to take advan-
tage of several scoring oppc
tunities.

Bates scored again in the
third quarter to take a 2-0 lead
when at 3:05 a Bates player
headed the ball into the goal
after a corner kick. Jacobs had
no chance on this score. Play
was pretty even during most of
the period. Then at 19:21, Asim
Erdilek scored on a breakaway
for the Judges, his third goal of
the season.

Tough Break Hurts

Brandeis received a tough
break in the second minute of
the last quarter. An official
missed what appeared to be an
offsides call and Bates scored
its final goal on this play. The
two goal margin was too much
to overcome and the final score
was Bates 3, Brandeis 1.

Cadman Mills proved him-
self to be by far the best play-
er on the field during this

can recognition this season.
Bruce Clarkin was probably
next best, breaking up the
Hales attack innumerable times.
Johnson, McLaughlin, and Rov-
ner once more played strong
games.

If the Judges can straighten
out their defensive assign-
ments, if Coach Hughes can get
the offensive line to play to-
gether as a team, and if the
club can continue to play their
brand of good aggressive ball,
this soccer team can still go
on to post one of the finest
records in Brandeis sports his-
tory.

Brandeis Net Championship
Taken by Wesleyan Junior

Steve Beik, a 19-year-old
junior from Wesleyan Univer-

championship of the third an-

In getting to the finals, Beik
defeated quarter-finalist John

MIT and Ken Lavie of Holy
Cross. He drew a bye in the
first round. Hughes topped
quarter-finalist Chris Livesay
of Wesleyan, Bill Weldon of
Stonehill and John Chanowski
of Boston College. The Holy

Cross runner-up was seeded
first.

Tournament a Success

The tournament had 26 par-
ticipants from 13 colleges. The
sun shined Saturday and Sun-
day to help make it, according
to Athletic Director Irving
Olin, the most successful Bran-
deis Invitational yet. Olin
praised new tennis coach Tom
Foley, director of the two-day
event, for "doing a hell of a
good job."

The Brandeis players did not
fare well. Seeded Bernie Rous,
who drew a bye, lost his first
match. He was defeated 6-2,
6-2 by Livesay. Gerry Katz
topped Barry Pauldnick of
Bentley 8-6, 6-2, but lost to
Maloy 6-2, 6-1.

Neither Beik nor Hughes en-
countered any problems mak-
ing their ways to the finals.
Both easily defeated all oppon-
ents.

Now that the intramural football season is a week old. it
is possible to assess objectively the complaints which individ-
uals and teams have voiced concerning rules, schedules, and
playing conditions.

The greatest source of concern lies in the officiating. The
physical education department has not been able to supply quali-
fied officials. The resultant complaints have poured forth hot
and heavy, and have indeed been well-founded.

In the only game which I attended, Bio-chem vs. Fighting
Irish, officiating errors were numerous and blatant. Two Irish
touchdowns were called back because officials had accidentally
blown the plays dead although the runners' flags remained
intact. One play was whistled dead at the instant an infraction
occurred, rather than at the play's conclusion. Furthermore,
one of the officials frankly asked another just before the game
what constituted such basic infractions as clipping and holding.

Reports from other quarters indicate that such carelessness
and ignorance exists in the officiating throughout A and B

leagues.

Paid for Incompetency

The physical education de-
partment hires and pays these
student officials and is there-
fore responsible for their* de-
ficiencies. The officials receive
a minimum of $1.30 an hour
(most of them receive more),
yet many of them are incom-
petent.

Other on-campus jobs re-
quiring skills are given only to
those students who prove their
competence; there is no test for
the intramural official. One sim-
ply need arrive on campus early

and talk to the proper person
down at the gym. Such a sys-
tem of selection has to stop.

Perhaps Steve Goldstein and
Mike Blumberg will take it
upon themselves (through the
Student Council Athletic Com-
mittee) to arrange for some
sort of test to be given to per-
spective officials.

Scheduling Complaints

There have also been some
complaints about the schedul-
ing. The season opener between
the Bio-chems and the Fighting
Irish was ill-planned. Last
year's results pointed to these
teams as the most likely to suc-
ceed, and thus a late season
showdown would have been
much more suspenseful. In-
stead, the teams met before
either had come anywhere near
its peak, and the Irish won a
game in which excitement cen-
tered around the officiating.

A more substantial complaint
comes from the 69ers, who must
play three games this week —
against the Good Guys, the
Irish, and the Bio-chems. The
69ers showed last week that
they have a strong team, but
to play three games in a week,
no less three games against
such strong opposition, is an al-
most impossible task.

Mismatch

The team which suffers most
from the scheduling, is the Nut-
crackers. This strong B-league
ensemble finds itself in the
A-league — a position which it
neither requested nor expected.
A seven team A-league should
not be out of the question. Why
not switch that team now while
schedule revisions are still pos-
sible?

The Brandeis golf team was
in Vermont last week for a
match with the University of
Vermont on Friday and for the
Eastern Collegiate Athletic
Conference qualifying tourna-
ment on Saturday. Neither en-
deavor proved successful, des-
pite some fine play.

The team fell to the Ver-
mont club, S^^-lVi. at the Burl-
ington Country Club. Freshman
Mitch Nelson added to a 32
game winning streak, which he
brought with him from high
school, with a 4 and 2 victory.
Barry Zimmerman, the team's
number one man and co-cap-
tain, halved his match for the
remaining Brandeis score.

A misunderstanding in the
interpretation of the rules dis-
qualified the best Brandeis
prospects in the ECAC tour-
ney.

CV«».%« Country

The undermanned Brandeis
cro.ss country team suffered a
double setback last Friday at
the hands of Boston University
and Tufts. There was some con-
fusion whether the meet was
to be considered a trianguar
meet or two dual meets, Bran-
deis vs. Tufts and Brandeis vs.
B.U., but whatever the nomen-
clature, the results were a dis-
appointment.

In what Coach Norm Levine
had predicted would be "our
toughest meet this year," Peter
Branigan was the only Bran-
deis runner to crack the top
ten. Branigan, who had held
the course record of 20:17.5,
finished ninth as B.U.'s Greater
Boston champion George Star-
kus led all the way to win.
Starkus covered the 4.2 mile
trek around campus in 20:15,
a new record.

Scored as a triangular meet,
the results were as follows:

Tufts: 25

B.U.: 38

Brandeis: 77
To arrive at dual meet scores,
finishers from the third team
are discounted and positions
determined accordingly. The re-
sults were:

Tufts: 15

As Student 'Show of Support'

Student Council, meeting
Wednesday night, voted to al-
locate $500 to the Theatre Arts
Department, In response to a
long-standing department re-
quest for aid.

Council, which had turned
down similar requests from the
theatre since early last spring,
granted the money after ques-

department. Dr. Charles Moore.
Dr. Moore, who had been asked

to attend the meeting follow
ing an earlier Council refusal
to allocate the money, was
questioned for over an hour by
the Council members.

The motion to grant the al-
location, passed by a vote of
6-3-2, states that the money is
to be given "to further student
participation in the theatre and
furthermore, to try to insure
free tickets to Spingold produc-
tions for the Brandeis student

Following is the text of the
statement released to the Jus-
tice by the Board:

The statement on page 72 of
the 1965-1966 General Cata-
logue on dismissal for non-aca-
demic reasons was changed by
the Administrative Committee
of the Faculty without inform-
ing or seeking the advice or
consent of the Student Board
of Review. This statement had
been approved by the Student
Board of Review and the Presi-
dent of the University with the
knowledge of the University
lawyer.

The Student Board of Review
stressed to the Administration,
and in particular to the Presi-
dent of the University, the cru-
cial importance of cooperation
and good faith in our dealings
with them and the necessity of
judicial integrity within any
system of campus justice. As a
result of our discussions, the
new catalogue will be restored
to its old form.

The SBR agreed to meet with
the Administrative Committee
On October 19 to clarify the
system of due processes protec-
tions within the Brandeis com-
munity.

On Relations

The Intercollegiate Relations
Committee is sponsoring a
meeting of representatives of
seven Boston area colleges and
universities tonight in Sher-
man A-'aculty Lounge. The com-
mittee, which evolved out of
the Brandeis chapter of the
National Student Association,
is in the process of organiza-
tion and has called this meet-
ing to structure similar groups
in the other colleges.

Represented at the Sherman
meeting will be Harvard, Rad-
cliffe, Regis, Jackson, Tufts,
MIT, and Emerson.

The debate on the appoint-
ments opened after Council
voted 11-0-2 to reconsider a
motion passed at the last meet-
ing which would have ap-
pointed Marcus, SBR Chief
Justice Brent Levinson, '68, and
a third student to the positions.
After voting to defeat the ear-
lier motion, Council voted to
appoint Marcus and two other
students, to be chosen at that
meeting. The vote on this action
was also 11-0-2.

Secret ballots were then cast

that the $500 was needed to
help cover the administrative
costs of granting free tickets to
students for the theatre pro-
ductions. In the past, it has
been University policy to ad-
mit students to all theatre pro-
ductions free of charge.

At the Council meeting,
however, Dr. Moore expressed
the opinion that the actual
amount involved would be "in-
significant" in terms of the de-
partment's overall deficit.
Council President Brian Mar-
cus, '67, stated that the money
was more of a "show of sup-
port" for the department in its
attempts to keep the student
admission free.

ADDITION

In an article last week, Jay
Kaufman, Chairman of the
Student Council EPC, was
quoted as saying that his
committee has to "work
within the confines of the po-
litical facts of life at Bran-
deis." As ^ result of a setting
error by our photo engrav-
ers, several additional para-
graphs of explanation were
cut. These paragraphs em-
phasized that the EPC in no
way regarded these "facts of
life" as fixed or unchange-
able and that it was working
to change the conservative
atmosphere present at Bran-
deis.

New President
Late last week, Professor
Ramsay MacMuUen of the Hi.s»
tory Department announced
that Professor Victor Harris of
the English Department h.ad
been selected to succeed him as
President of the Faculty Sen-
ate.

SBR

Student Board of Review is
reminding any student charged
by a residence hall counselor
or by anyone else with a viola-
tion of a dormitory hall regula-
tion that he has an automatic
right to a trial before the SBR.

Residence Counselors

The following Residence
Counselors are on duty this
week: Massell: Thomas
Abrams, Adele Sternberg,
Kevin Hargreaves; Ridgewood:
Richard Epstei/i; Castle: Sheila

Advisory Council

The newly formed Advisory
Council on University Aflfairs
will hold its first meeting on
Thursday, Oct. 20. The Admin-
istration has reportedly agreed
to accept Harris Gleckman as
an alternate member with ob-
server status as provided in the
Student Council motioo.

Robert Shrum. Brandeis debate coach, looks over text of
argtimcnts for this week's Brandeis debate tournament. Story

At Interest

The Student Activity Fees
paid this year have been in-
vested in certificates of deposit
at the Newton Waltham Sav-
ings Bank. The Student Coun-
cil has bought four certificates
worth $10,000 each. At an in-
terest rate of five preccnt they

will earn $583.33. At this date
about 1450 undergraduates
have paid or signed for SAF.

Election Committee

Student Council has selected
Linda Axelrod, '69. as the new
chairman of the Election Com-
mittee.

Cla.ss of '68

The Class of '68 has an-
nounced that the previous ap-
pointment to the post of class
treasurer has been rescinded
and that an election will be
held t'iiis week to fill the va-
cancy.

Dr. Charles W. Moore.

Council's questioning of Dr.
Moore centered on attempts to
obtain a specific statement ex-
plaining why the money wa;?
needed and exactly what would
be obtained by the Council in
exchange for the grant.

Dr. Moore refused to go into
specific details concerning tho
fiscal condition of his depart-
ment. He did state that the in-
crease granted his department
last year was "not quite enough
to cover the extra costs" in-
volved in the addition of the
professional artist in residoaCQ
program.

No In.surance

He also refused to give
Council any specific guarantees
concerning what the $500 al-
! location could l>e expected to
achieve. He declared that the
grant could "not insure that
the tickets would remain free."
He also stated that he thought
that a minimum number of
tickets per performance might
l>e guaranteed, but that he had
"no idea of what the exact fig-
ure might turn out to be."

Marcus declared that t1ie
University was "apparently
pressuring the theatre to
charge students admission in
one form or another." He
stated that if the Council
granted the department's re-
quest, "the department could
show the Administration that
there was student interest and
support for the policy of grant-
ing free ticket.*:." Under ques-
tioning. Moore backed up Mar-

Advisory Council

student Council staged an unfortunate performance last
Wedne.sday when it attempted to elect student members to the
Advisory Council on University Affairs. Because of a doubtful
count resulting from poorly defined procedure, new elections
had to be bcld. The confusion arising from such procedural
negligence is especially deplorable because it could endanger the
future of the committee.

What will be the future of the Advisory Council? In large
measure, this will be determined by the first few sessions. While
applauding the spirit of cooperation which seems to be in the
air this year, and which is responsible for the creation of the
Council, we wish to emphasize the importance of procedural
and institutional changes coupled with the spiritual. It is nice
to believe that good people can always come to a happy solution
of their differences. Experience, however, teaches us to place
more faith in the permanence of institutions than in the dura-
bility of good-feeling. And true mutual conlidence is more
likely to result when the discussion or dialogue is nqt given to
one group as a gift but is accorded to it as a right.

The new Council must consider the problems which face
BrarKleis and every other small liberal arts school in this
country: how to maintain the intimate and essentially j>eda-
gogical character of the liberal arts school in the face of pres-
sures to expand enrollment and stress graduate studies; how
to develop a community in which all segments of the University
can speak and be heard.

In undertaking these tasks, the new Council should keep
in mind that promises and good faith, no matter how encour-
aging, are no substitute lor solid institutional guarantees.

To the Editor:

Apparently Dr. Maurice
Sussman is unaware of the
existence of the Brandeis Uni-
versity Choral Union which for
the past four years has been
giving three concerts a year of
excellent qualify in Slosjberg
Recital Hall.

In looking through past pro-
grams I see performances of
such works as Beethoven's
Mass in C Major; Handel's com-
plete Israel in Epypt not to
mention his Utrecht Jubilate
and Dixit Dominus; the Vivaldi
Gloria; Schubert's Mass in G;
two cantatas of Bach; the
Christmas Oratorio (Parts I and
IV); Stravinsky's Mtiss, Can-
tata and Les Noces; Brahm's
Four Songs for Women's Cho-
rut and the L i e b e s I i e d e r
Waltzes, plus many motets
from the Renaissance and a
good deal of the better con-
temporary repertoire.

I suggest that before Dr.
Sussman complnin further
about the musical programs at
Brnndei.^. he attend the next
Choral Union concert which
v.'ill take place on Fridny eve-
i.ng. December \€^ at 8:30 p.m.
The program will consist of
Gnbrieli's Jisbilate Deo; an or-
pan mn'^s of Haydn, and the
Bach Mapnifint with full or-
chestra ard soloist*;.

text of an article.

The article was changed
somewhat in the final stages
of preparation, and now
seems to twist the incidents
of the meeting somewhat and
certainly distorts yonr point
in citing "the political facts
•f life at Brandeis.''

I cannot apologize t« you
for the actions taken by the
JUSTICE, but please accept
my personal assurances that
this is not an example of the
way in which I feel news
should be reported, and that
I made every effort to keep
the article a complete, factu-
al report of the meeting.

I only hope that no harm
was done your good reputa-
tion or that of the Educa-
tional Policies Committee.

Sincerely,

Editors Reply

The JUSTICE regrets any
misunderstanding which may
have arisen in regard to t h e
article on the EPC meeting. As
sent to the printer, the article
contained several additional
paragraphs explaining "facts of
life" quote. It appears that
these paragraphs were subse-
quently left out as an indirect
result of a serious mistake
made by our photoengraver.
We apologize for any problems
this may have caused the EPC
or others.

•DRAG"

To the Editor:

Clarification! That English
Composition is "a drag" at
Brandeis won't b<^ the solo con-
clusion of the EPC study. When
the course is fully evaluated,
a proposal for a revitnlized
Comp. course which will in-
trigue both faculty and stu-
dents will be made.

B&Cil

Two weeks ago, after the Justice printed a semi-humorous
editorial, decrying the clisappea ranee of valuable Justice prop-
erty from our offices over the summer, a representative of
Buildings and Grounds, a Mr. Mahoney, came to our offices to
Investigate. He informed us that he had no knowledge of what
might have happened to the property.

This week, the Justice returned to its offices to find that a
layout table, essential to our operation, had been removed.
Again the Justice complained. Again Mr. Mahoney appeared.

This time, B&G reported that the table had been removed
on the orders of the Purchasing Department. On contacting the
Purchasing Department, however, we were told that it was the
same Mr. Mahoney who had told them that there was an "extra
table in the Justice office" which had to be moved out. Mahoney
reportedly told the Purchasing Department that the table had
been on loan to Upward Bound. The fact is that the table was
neither on loan nor "extra"; it had been used for layout by the
Justice, the Folio, and the Yearbook for years. Mr. Mahoney
has been unavailable for comment.

It seems incredible that an agency so austere and powerful
in the University as BAG might stoop to petty acts of reprisal.
Yet it is even harder to believe that an organization entrusted
with so much responsibility for the running of the school could
make so many petty mistakes in so brief a span of time.

Opinion

Class Government

Our class governments have
no constitution of their own.
They are mentioned in the pro-
posed Student Union Constitu-
tion only to the extent that
class officers may not hold cer-
tain other positions. In the past
students have taken advantage
of this unfortunate sitution to
appoint other students to va-
cancies in class government.
Last week it appeared that the
Executive Board of the Class of
1968 was going to follow this
deplorable precc^lent when it
announced an appointment to
fill the vacant post of Treas-
urer. The Executive Board
claims to have consulted with
SBR, prior to the appointment.
The court itself, however, is
not available for consultation.
Of the two individual members
who were approached by the
Executive Board, one declined
comment, and the other main-
tained that the action was un-
wise, but since there is no class
coAsVitution nothing could be

Allan

done about it. What is even
more disturbing are rumors
that the appointment was po-
litically motivated. Fortunate-
ly, the Executive Board had sec-
ond thoughts. It rescinded the
appointment and announced
that it would hold an election
for the position. Unfortunately,
there is no guarantee that oth-
er administrations will follow
this course oi action if the sit-
uation should arise again. As
long as our class goverments
remain free from constitution-
al control their operations will
depend entirely on the person-
al prejudices of the people in
power.

Last week, after a stormy
session on other matters that
lasted almost five hours. Stu-
dent Council was unwilling to
handle the issue of class gov-
ernments. It is hoped however,
that in the future it will take
positive action to provide these
organs with a legitimate basis
for their authority.

CLARIFICATION

To the Etlilor:

The Justice article of last
week by Judy Lowitz on the
recent EPC meeting may have
led to a misrepresentation of
my view of the EPC vis a vis
the structure of the University.
1 in no sense mean, as the
article implies, that the student
body — in its desire for qual-
ity education — must be para-
lyzed by existent phenomena
at Brandeis. But, I feel it wise
that we be consciously aware
of them so as to make realistic
and constructive moves. These
phenomena that I speak of in-
clude the less-than-optional fi-
nancial endowment, strong de-
partmental eiitonomy, and a
ifaculty whose interests extend
beyond the classroom to re-
search, publication, and their
own professional dis'iplines
where the presfige and profits
are often greater.

Thus, it is our responsibility
to ourselves to shape our pro-
posals to hurdle or destroy the
roadblocks to academic excel-
lence Only by realizing the
full scope of the complex prob-
lems can we react or propose
in a sophisticated productive
fashion We must demand an
education free of mediocrity,
but must free our demands of
mediocrity to achieve this erwl.

The following letter was sent
to me after I had submitted mv
letter to the Editor. I would
appreciate it if it were reprint-
ed under my statement.
Dear Jay:

1 have been informed
that yon were somewhat up-
set at the way in which you
were qnofed. by me, in this
week's JUSTICE. I •►an onW
say that 1, too, was disturbed
by the arti«*le as it appeared.
1 honestly fried to quote
you accurately, in fact, 1
made it a point not to use
any quotes which I did not
have written down word for
word. When the article had
to be cut I did, 1 thought,
most of the cutting and,
again, tried to keep your
words and my entire report
of the meeting in context.
Many of the things said at
the meeting hao shock valne,
but I have never thonrht that
such value shonid be 'he fac-
tor in determining tbc con-

Arbitrary Power

To the Editor:

Once again the Brandeis stu-
dent body has been given to
do what it will with an appar-
ent opportunity for greater
participation in university af-
fairs. Unfortunately, the will
of the students, if it is that ex-
emplified by student council,
seems more concerned with the
arbitrary exercise of power
and the embellishment of po-
litical futures than with duly
elected student representatives
to the potentially most signifi-
cant committee on campus.
However, to charge organized
chicanery to council's election
of representatives to the pro-
posed advisory council, assumes
that below the smokey dis-
order, extra-Robert's Rules ac-
tivity and paperback perusals
of council members, lies crafty
and basic intelligence. This is
tantamount to labelling a
Punch-and-Judy Show intellec-
tual, while convinced that ap-
plause for a dumb-show is
moi-e appropriate.

After a parliamentarian's de-
cision, based on Robert's Rules,
and the post-ballot election-
eering of a dejected candidate,
reconsideration seemed unnec-
essary and totally out of order
in this case. The fact that a
candidate who at the end of
one round of balloting had a
seat, and who at the end of the
evening's business was left
with a position created to ap-
pease negligent consciences,
shows perhaps that decisions
by this group are made with
volatile permanency at best.

Much might be learned from
the evening's doings (I'm loathe
to call them proceedings) re-
garding Coimcil's concern for
legally based dispensation of
power and ethical concepts. To
call for the return of these
posts to the legally elected rep-
resentatives of the original
election and the return of es-
tablished selection governed
by some sort of logic, or even
to call to justify an expanded
student delegation, would prob-
ably only give the administra-
tion more fuel for their case
against student responsibility.
It leads one to wonder, how-
ever, if the real election mis-
takes were made last week or
last February.

BAN SENIORS?

To the Editor:

President Sachar's recent
proposal (Justice, Oct. 11)
concerning changes m the
graduation ceremony should
certainly meet with the ap-
proval of all members of the
Brandeis community. The cere-
mony is too long. What has
been proposed is that the least
valuable part of it, the granting

of degrees to seniors, be elim
jnated. ^'*"*-

Many of these students have
already caused Brandeis em
